1990 Acura Legend LS review from North America
"An impressive drive."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The rear wheel wells are rusting, along with the area just below the gas cap.
I have just replaced the alternator.
I have replaced brake pads at 130,000.
I replaced the tires at 145,000.
General comments?
This car handles like a dream.
The steering is sensitive and reliable.
Response time is like no other car I have owned.
However the spot rusting I have noticed on other Legends seems to be indicative of the model.
