1988 Acura Legend Base review from North America
"Truly amazing"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had a clogged radiator when I bought it, replaced it for 100 bucks (2 hour job).
Put new CV joints in the front to make it ride batter and stop the clicking.
Replaced the brake pads.
Needed a new Fuel relay, 75 bucks 20 minute job.
Basic maintenance...
General comments?
I love this car and wish I could buy it back from the guy I sold it too. Most reliable car on the road and it really earns it's name. Even for being a 1988 car it was so far ahead of it's time. I just bought a 1990 Legend LS that has more bells and whistles than the Cadillacs have. The new one has 275,000 miles on it and still runs strong with plenty of gitty-up. I would recommend this car to anyone.
