I know this is not exactly an Accord, but I wanted you guys to see my new car. Of course, I still have the Accord.

in the LS there is a 6-Speed transmission on certain models. Really, you don't need a manual. This car kicks anyway; the auto really packs and it has a 235 HP engine.

Yeah that is very nice. Before I got my TL, my choices were, Acura Legend, Acura TL, or Lexus ES300. I went with the TL because I really liked it, and was classy looking. You got yourself a cool car man. Will look very nice if you mod it.

Damn that's nice. I've been lookin for the past 3 weeks at Legends b/c they are such pimp ass rides. The 2dr LS coupe with the Type 2 engine and 6spd Tranny are so damn nice with a nice 230hp. I want one but they are pretty expensive for being a 10 year old car say like a 92. I still love'm

There is one major reason I like the 2 door Legend coupe over other Acuras (with the exception of the NSX of course :D) It is the fact that there were very few of them made. The 3G Teg is as common as the Civic these days. These cars have class and a sporty look. Plus the fact that I have seen very few of them defaced by riceboys..............thank God.

Phil,

Dude you own!! I like those big body Legends. That exact body style. I read the title and was like 'I know he didn't sell that 89.' I'm sure you'll notice some similarities in the 2 of them. I have seen some FINE sistas driving Legends. I don't know why, but it seems every one I see has some bizness man with a tie on or a FINE hottie in it. Very nice call.

Yer, im actually looking at getting a 1992 Legend next year some time,

here they're called Honda Legends and are quite stylish for their age, they still hover under and around the $20k mark, which is pretty good.......And there are practically NONE around here well in my town.

There were this Vietnamese dudes down from melbourne a while back who were friends of one of my mates sisters and they had this silver 92 Legend...DROOL! leather, they had these shiny chrome 17's on it....last i heard though the guy sold it and got an R32 or R33 Skyline, which ever is the really fast one...

This is a 94 LS with 73000 miles. I paid 13575 for it which I really had to bargain for. Felt like that was good enough considering the condition and the blue book is quite higher than that. I like the 94s and 95s becasuse they have a better looking trunks. if you notice they first gen 2s had the flat trunk and it did not have a light mounted in it. This car almost seems to have a "virtual spoiler"

Some features that I really like
Auto tilt and telescope wheel that adjusts for memory seat positions and moves out of the way when you remove your key from the ignition
There is padding under the carpet!
Bose audio is very good in this car and would be hard to match
Sunroof
Heated seats (don't know how well this will come in handy)
Automatic climate control (you set it to 72, the car is 72)
16" rims with low profile tires
Burled walnut trim
Doors automatically seal when pulled to

I almost bought a nice 98 TL about this time last year. I really did like it, but the handling wasn't quite as good as this car. I was about to drive it off the lot but changed my mind becasue even though I got a good deal on it, I didn't feel it was good enough. I'm glad I got the Legend - it has more features. The things I liked the TL for were the keyless entry, and this car is roomy, but the TL has more space. Both the TL and the Legend are classic designs.

There is nothing I want more in this world than a 4door 95 Legend with 18s

Hey, I was just looking, and I think they got the design cues for the current honda accord coupe from this model (even though this is a lot bigger). What do you guys think?

I think the new coupe is the gayest thing since Richard Simmons. That car is nice though.

nice car I sell Acuras and we almost never get legends that clean. The 6sp coupe is worse then a needle in a hay stack, more like a needle in a 5 story parking garage. LOL I don't know if you know this but they were over $40k new and the high resale is because they are in higher demand then the TLs and RLs.
