I'm happy with the Legend. I have owned three total as well as am Integra and Accord before. Anway, the Legend will drive similar to the Accord and depending on which year Coupe you get, it will either have 200HP pr 230 HP. One thing is parts and services are all a little higher than the other Honda and Acura cars. Also there is a very limmited aftermarket support for the Legend as well. Many of the parts you see available was from begging and pleading by the Legend owners. Anyway, the 1st gear shift on the automatics are harder than other Honda/Acura cars, but it should not be neck breaking. The rear tanny mount on the Legend tends to fail around 75K mile or so for many owners, so that will add to the hard shifting feel. Have the rear tranny checked. It is about $130 part plus labor to change. Also, flushing with Honda ATF also smooths out the shifts. Check the Legend forums over and forums.legend.org and over at www.acura-legend.com/bulletin for more help from Legend owners.

I think you'll deffinately like the Legend coupe. I've had my sedan for 7 years, have never done me wrong. It's a bit of a pain gettin parts for , but things are looking up. But in stock form, it's a really nice luxurious and fast car. one of the only fwd auto's I've ever seen to scratch second shifting. =)

Can some of yous post some pics of your Legends. Im looking at a 92 LS ( I thinks it may be a Type 2) which would be even better, but i know there isnt alot of mod support but post some pics and what mods you have. Appriciate it. Do any of you have quartermile times also?
