1988 Acura Legend L review from North America
"A great deal if you can purchase one that has been taken care of and you choose to take care of it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The oil light blinks (whenever it wants to) but this is due to a faulty board. We have installed an Oil Pressure Gauge and the pressure reads where it should be when the oil light blinks.
General comments?
For a 1988 car, still running today that can still beat most cars from a 0-60mph stand still...what more can you ask for? If you take care of this car it will take care of you. My Acura has been one of the most reliable cars in my family. We are not afraid to drive this vehicle anywhere b/c we know it will not let us down. We have performed off of the scheduled maintenance. (oil changes, tranny fluid changes, etc) My leather is a bit cracked, I have 3 minor dents from the previous owner... but after last nights wax, the car still looks brand new. Acura should not have discontinued the Legend line. Whether it be a gen1 or a gen2 Legend, the styling is timeless. http://www.legend-forum.com/vbulletin/ (A link to a great Legend forum)
