1995 Acura Legend LS Coupe review from North America
"The road warrior!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing seems to be wrong with the car. I just wish they made better cup holders.
Just about the perfect car.
General comments?
This Legend is one true legend. It's like the Prelude, but with the V6 engine and it's bigger (other words much more improvement)!
When I first saw the car I wanted it right away. I have always loved Hondas, I especially love the Prelude, but the Legend is better. As a matter of fact this car has not run in 7 years. This car was owned by a marine that has been in Iraq and now Afghanistan. This guy couldn't just keep it sitting anymore so he gave it to me.
After 7 years of sitting, I just put on new tires and already had the brakes done before the 7 year sitting period. I put in a new battery. All this car really needed was a service and an engine flush. After that was all done with under 75,000 miles, the car drives like its brand new.
I recently had the car fully detailed. MAN!!! You won't believe how the car looks now. However I'm also still driving my Prelude too. I'm keeping both cars and it's not like I'm going to share the cars with each others parts. I will also not put any of the Prelude parts on the Legend.
I was thinking about putting the Legend motor in the Prelude, but I decided not to take apart the Legend after all the work I did to it. I don't want to mess it up.
