1989 Acura Legend L review from North America
"A must have"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Power antenna never came down one day and it never really bothered me so I never fixed it.
Cruise control in the legend was dysfunctional since the day I bought it.
Other than that there was nothing major.
General comments?
The legend was the most reliable car I have had to this day.
Apmle room for up to 5 people.
Realitivlely good on gas about 20 miles per gallon city and 26 highway.
Very quiet inside and outside of the vehicle.
It is boxy, but I think acura did a good job of making it look great.
Very responsive engine.
This car was way ahead of its time.
Heated sideview mirrors.
Large speedometer gauge almost looks retro. be sure not to pay close attention to the guages; it can really get to you.
