iT IS IN GOOD SHAPE AND ALL RECORDS ARE THERE INCLUDING A NEW TRANSMISSION AT 64K MILES.. dO YOU THINK IT IS A GOOD BUY OR SHOULD i CONSIDER A SIMILAR YEAR LOW MILEAGE CAMRY OR ACCORD..

Answer
Hello JYO: The Acura TL is a fine car. The one you're looking at has a little higher miles that normal for that year. Average is about 70,000. Kelly Blue Book shows that the car is valued at about $14,000 in excellent condition at a Retail Dealership. Private party value of the same vehicle shows to be about 10,000 in fair condition to about 12,500 in excellent condition. Log onto Kelly Blue Book on the web @ kbb.com anytime you want to check out a vehicle price. Sounds like you are pretty much on the right price for this car.....Good Luck!    Jim Sears.
