    Legends are common, if i'm not mistaken. Just re-badged Euro or Japanese Accords. Could be wrong.

    Edit: Then it must have been a different one. Either way, still a nice car.

      I love Legends. So much better then V6 Accords. That one looks like a second gen. If it's in good shape, $1800 is decent

        Acura Legend...ooo i loved that car.
        My friend had a 2nd gen Legend Coupe.
        The v6 was sooo smooth and powerful.
        It was very classy and still, even today is a looker.

        $1800...what year? mileage? body condition? do your research man!

        ...and NO. Legends were a different platform from the Accord.

        They are still made today, but called Acura RL here in N.America.

        Do some site searching, there are tons of threads on the Legend. Y0.

            Before anyone asks... no, the Legend motor will not fit in a CB7!

            They're quite common. They're the flagship car for Acura here in the US (and I would assume so for Honda in Japan as well). It is the most expensive car made by Honda (aside from the NSX) and definitely the most luxurious. The older models have some decent power, and look nice when fixed up. However, they're most commonly automatic, and the transmissions haven't really aged all that well. The V6 motor, while very reliable, is known to leak oil as well... I've known of Legends with leaks going strong for years, despite losing their fluid!

            They're nice cars, but too heavy for most performance modifications. The only Legend worth modifying for performance would be the 2nd gen with the manual transmission.


            There was also a turbo Legend at one point, I believe.

              Hey deev do you think I could pull the C32 out of my Legend and put it in my Accord. Then throw my H22 into the legend?

              Someone was showing their original sticker when they bought their Legend brand new in 95. Sale price was almost $40K!

              I'm not too familiar with the Turbo Legends, but I believe they only came in the first gens, and were never available state-side.

              Some of the second gens come with a 6 speed manual tranny! They are on the heavy side though. Don't know if I'd try to pick one up to heavily mod it. Another common problem they have are bad head gaskets, however if they are maintained properly they are very reliable cars just as you'd expect form Honda. I do recommend before anyone tries to purchase one that they head over to acura-legend.com and read up about the bad head gasket problems and how to detect them. A few pics of my Legend and my old CB7 are here if you wanna check 'em out---->http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthre...ghlight=legend

                  I use to own a acura legend a long time ago. Great car and its a dream to drive but one problem is the car is still expensive to maintain plus the mods you get for this car are rare and expensive as well.


                  This is the link to my old legend. I still vist the site to laugh how long I have been doing mods to cars and how stupid I was for investing in that car because back then it was 18 bucks each spark plug for NGK plats.

                    this car has seen better days, its a 1990 with 135k miles on it. It would definately be a project car if i had room to put it somewhere. only thing i really liked about the car was the shifter knob, it was pretty cool looking, it has a lip but its not like the ones you guys have it just goes kinda flat down its wierd. ill try to upload some pics in a minute.

                      The second gen lips are the ones people are using. Don't know if anyone has tried the first gen lips.
