My first photoshoot - TL-S
So my friends Dad decided to sell his TL-S, and asked me to not only detail it (I detail for PT work), but also to sell it.
Sounds good, I say! So I decided to get some pictures! Unfortunately camera settings made a number of great shots incredibly grainy, so most shots are in low light. Driving around looking for spots offered a chance to get to know the car, and it was thoroughly enjoyable.
It does 70 in 2nd, rides very smoothly for a "sport" suspension, and is very tight handling with minimal road noise. He's selling it because its front wheel drive and hates the torque steer, but compared to my 'vic it felt almost non-existent. It accelerated very quickly and was fun to enjoy for the night. The only cons I noticed were rough shifts in "manual" mode (as par for the course for many cars with this feature) and some massive understeer. Overall, it was a lot of fun.
Check out the pics, and feel free to comment! I'll be posting the car up in the next week or so for sale if you happen to be interested.

Thanks man, it got a long process of clay bar, polish and wax today and it was already in great shape.
Not sure on the asking price quite yet, I'm waiting for him to let me know. Keep an eye out for a for sale thread, or if you're interested I can PM the number when I find out.

$30k + Easily ... If he is dishearterned by the trade in value stealerships gave him I bet u he will let it go for way under that 
I love the looks of this car but just coz of the fact that its FWD ... I would prefer the New G35 or the IS350 without a second thought !
