1988 Acura Legend L review from North America

When I purchased the car in November of 2002, it would only start after the engine had cooled. Afterward it would occasionally cut off. It was determined that is was the fuel pressure regulator, the fuel relay, and something called the TWA switch. The work was done for roughly $300.

There is a slight oil leak, but has been priced as relatively cheap to fix.

I purchased the car for nothing from my cousin because of the above listed problems. So the car really cost me about $300!!!

The car runs like no other car I have ever driven.

This car could have been the equivalent of a 1988 Mercedes S-Class.

The car is 15 years old, so you should expect normal maintenance that would come along with a 15 year old car.

The car should last for at least 20 years or more if you do what is called "preventive maintenance" such as regular oil changes ($19.99 every 3,000 miles), tire rotation ($49.99 every 25,000 miles), brake pads (price and time varies), timing belt change (unsure of price, but at least on any car over 150,000 miles), and yearly diagnostic tests at the dealer ($89.99).

The car is extremely fast and very quiet while accelerating.

Be prepared for speeding tickets.

I really don't understand why Acura would stop making a car like this.
