Replying to: davidros11 (Oct 04, 2008 10:36 pm) Out of curiosity, what do hate so much about the 2008 Honda EXL V6 that you can't live with and therefore are willing to take such a loss? Replies to this message: davidros11 (Oct 05, 2008 4:19 pm)

Replying to: 2008stype (Oct 02, 2008 8:34 am) 2008stype: May I ask how much you paid for your Type-S?? What part of the country are you from. I am looking for the best possible deal in the Tri-state Philly area for a Type-S. Thanks! Replies to this message: 2008stype (Oct 06, 2008 6:12 am)

Replying to: tenbelow (Oct 02, 2008 3:51 pm) Mike,   Thanks for the tip. I was wondering what product to use. A co-worker has an older M-5 and was using a product called Hide Food. This seemed to work for him. So far the S is great. Getting the same MPG as my 01 Accord V-6, 86 more HP for the cost of premium.   Jeff

Replying to: njnj (Oct 06, 2008 5:27 am) The transmission issue is old news. TL had a bad washer in the 01-02 which caused about a 5% failure rate. This was solved years ago and Honda made good on the bad trannies. My 01 Accord V-6 got a 73 month 70K mile extended warantee by Honda (I had no problems).

Replying to: deuces74 (Oct 05, 2008 4:27 pm) I bought my S about 5 months ago when they had the 2500 off. I bought mine from Rizza Acura in Chicago (southern burbs). I paid a bit over 36K out the door complete (including sales tax and Illinois title transfer). I got mudflaps and no DOC fee included. Chicago has a 1/2 % additional sale tax and an $100/car fee as well. Rizza has a good web sales staff and they seem to move a lot of cars so it might be worth your while to send them an email.. I worked with Chuck. Dale this the other half of the internet sales team. If your buying for out of state I believe you still will have to pay IL sales tax, if it less than your home state you will pay the difference upon registration, if it is less your stuck for the difference.   I think the S is a much better car that the "std" TL so I recommend spending the extra $.

#9715 of 10989 Purchased used TL Type-S 6MT $28,900 by scdryver Oct 06, 2008 (11:23 am)
Thanks in part to some discussion here and in the TSX forum, I purchased a used 2008 TL Type-S 6MT with 12K miles a couple of weeks ago for $28,900 from a Toyota dealership in Texas that had taken it in on a trade. The previous owner (and dealer) left the original owner's Aug 2007, $39K+ receipt in the owner's manual. The previous owner also left all of their phone numbers, etc. in the Nav system's memory. (Let this be a lesson to all of you when you sell your car later!)   Carmax had several 2007 and 2008 Type-S 6MT's for around $32K. (They have a blue 2007 with 18K miles in Raleigh right now which they've only recently reduced to $28,998. On Aug 31, they were asking $31,599 for this exact car.) The 6MT was practically impossible to find new from any Acura dealer nationwide last month. Even a used one was hard to find -- especially in silver or carbon bronze.   Getting 31 MPG Hwy and 21 MPG City. The most helpful search engine for my search was probably oogle.com, though I used several others, too.
