Have had mine for 1.5 now. Bought it for a cheap $1100 and had to get A/C compressor and convert to R134. Later had to replace fan module but overheated twice. Had a lifter noise after it overheated but some Engine Restore at every oil change eliminates the noise. It is an old car so it is what it is until someone makes it better. Slowly adding upgrades as things get time to swap change out. It is my daily driver with 160,000 miles and is very strong, quick, durable, regardless of the issues I had when I first got it. Overall, it has been a good tuff car with just regular maintenance and fuel. Just drive it!Mar 17, 2010

not a bad over all car, with few and finer mods to this vehicle it has the potential to dessamate all off the line and in the long run, but be prepaired to have some money to drop in thereAug 15, 2009

For a small car it accelerates pretty quickly. Was Car&Drive car of the year back in 1989. People think its a much younger car all the time. Still rock solid after 20 years. A little bit more expensive since it was the second year of Acura was in existance and parts are harder to find. Can cruise at 100mph with no problem. Gas mileage is ok, highway suck cause no overdrive (17/23). Fun to drive and looks good. Mines a 2 door black on black which i researched is extremely rare for this model. May 21, 2009

This car by far was my favorite car i ever owen. I got the car from my buddy jakes parents for nothing. put a coil in it and it fired right up. This car was so fast and powerfull if you put it to the floor from a take off it would slip the tires when it hit second gear and when it did that the steering wheel would yank to one side from the torque. this car was fast and everybody still talks about stories in the legend. lolMar 31, 2009

well this is my legend in the pic except mine is black with window tint all around and a 5 speed manual. and its a good car but theres just alot of work to do to mine it needs new paint, seats, stereo system, steering parts, starter, and rear side windows, ill prolly end up spending 3,000 in it b4 its all said and done but when its done it'll be a show car.Dec 30, 2008

This Legend could not compare with my Gold 88 Legend. It looked great and was a LS model (compared to my Gold L model) but it burned oil and I had to continuously top it off. Nice black leather interior. The electronic information center was great (that's how I knew I had to add oil) Sold in 2003.Jan 09, 2008
