I found a couple Acura TLs I'm interested in...

2003 - 220k km / 136k miles - $3500 - not certified / not e-tested
1999 - 240k km / 150k miles - $2899 - certified / e-tested

Which one should I buy?

Also, are Acura TLs reliable at high mileage? And should I be worried about buying a non-certified / e-tested car from a dealer?

And are they known for not being able to pass an e-test?

Why are you set on an Acura tl. You don't have much money to spend I would get something more reliable

I have money to spend. I'm just cheap, and these 2 cars seem like good deals.

what does an e test/ certified mean?

what qualifications do they have to pass.

pretty sure all that means is that a dealer is selling it.

Certified - Means its Safetied, and meets the ministriys standards and is allowed on the road..
E test - Emission tested, means it meets the minstriys standards and isnt a oil burning, 86 impala gas guzzling ,polluting whore. ( places like toronto, cali are hard asses with this shit especially )

/ you take the registration and these certificats down to the MTO pay the taxes and get your plates and drive away no hassles...
