Default 88 Legend @ 200,000 !

(My first post here...)

I'll probably come back to this forum and read some of the other posts, but in the meantime, I thought I'd just mention that yesterday, my 88 Legend L Coupe - which I've owned since it was brand-new -crossed the 200,000 mile mark - and the car still runs and looks as good as it did when it was new.... well, OK, maybe it's a little looser... and the clutch chatters a bit (anybody know how to fix that one? The dealer is clueless...), but when I look around and think about what newer vehicle I might get to replace the legend... I really don't see anything that interests me. I did test drive the new 3.0CL type S with the 6-speed manual transmission, but when I got back in my car, it felt much more substantial. I'll stick with what I've got.

In fact, there are only two features that I would gain if I bought a new car: a cup holder, and remote-controlled door locks. Maybe somebody on this forum can steer me toward an "upgrade" ? Anybody got a decent cup-holder in an 88 ??

I'm gonna give the ol' girl a new coat of paint some time this summer (smooth out the dents and dings while I'm at it), maybe there are some other "performance enhancers" I might consider putting under the hood...??

More when I get the chance... --PS
