Default What do you think is too much mileage for a 2004 Acura TL?

When purchasing, what would be too much mileage for this car?

It all depends on how they took care of the car. But 65,000+ is a lot of mileage for a 2004.

Calculate 15K or 18 K per year. Anything above that is a lot.

City average is about 10 to 12 K per year. So anything over 50K is not worth it.

depending on how well maintained the vehicle is. average mileage driven is aprox. 12,000 miles a year. also depends on how the car was driven-highway or local driving.

It depends on a lot of factors. These days mileage is not always such a bad thing. An Acura TL could easily last to 200,000 if it is well looked after. Sometimes a high mileage vehicle can be a good buy since it may have gotten high mileage with a lot of long drives on the interstate. This kind of mileage is great for a car, as the engine is a peak efficiency, you are hardly using the brakes or transmission while cruising.The biggest thing I would be looking for is the service history. Did the previous owner keep records? Was the car serviced at an Acura dealer, or did they just change the oil at some random oil change place? Did they do all the major services and do them properly at an Acura dealer?I would buy a high mileage TL, but only with a full service history.I have an 05 TL and they are great cars.

TL's are very good cars so you can't go wrong. I wouldn't get anything over 75,000 though.My father has a 04 TSX with 73K, but those are highway miles.
