Default 2004 Acura TL As A First Car?

Hi Guys,

I'm looking to buy my first car very shortly. I am 19 and make decent money. I Live in Canada. I was looking at picking up a 2004 Acura TL for roughly $25,000.00. Just curious on your opinions about buying luxury (and this car specifically) for my first time. Oh and insurance, parts and maintenance aren't a problem money wise. Any suggestions? Thanks

Yeah man, Acuras are nice for the price. But 04's for 25k? I would say they would be under $20k, but you might be in CDN. Probably the most reliable CPO car you can get at that price.

Acura = longevity, resale value, reliability. 25k does seem much. But TL's are great cars.

What are you looking for in a car? That's a nice car, but I'm sure there's much better options depending on what you're looking for for that price.

The insurance is under my name. As i said, i make good money (35k a year and being 19). I can afford the insurance no probs. 25k was just a ballpark figure, ive seen them for cheaper.
