1991 Acura Legend L Coupe on 2040-cars
Cincinnati, Ohio, United States
“Wow, that’s a lot for a 24 year old Acura” At first glance that’s what I would think too- but words
don’t do this car justice and this 2 owner car isn’t for just anybody. This
beauty is probably best suited for either the Honda NA museum or someone who had
a Legend at one time in the past and would like to relive those days. If you
could walk into an Acura dealership and buy a Legend this car is what you would
drive off the showroom floor. This car has always been garaged when not being driven,
hidden from UV rays, never seen snow and rarely seen rain. During the winters
while stored it was started and ran monthly. The original owner is the mother
of my NSX tech, an Acura factory trained master tech. Frankly part of the
reason I bought the car in the first place is that it is that it was impeccably
maintained, is gorgeous and is the same color combo as my NSX- red with tan- so
they look awesome sitting together. This Legend L with a dealer-installed rear spoiler is as
close as you can get to LS trim, the only difference being the black side
moldings that are body color on the LS. It has soft-close doors like my wife’s Phaeton,
leather interior, dealer-installed wind deflector and sheepskin seat covers. The
paint is original with no accidents or repaints. About 3 years ago to update the look I tinted the windows,
installed lowering springs and larger more modern 18” wheels to bring this
classic design current. The original wheels are included, have no curb rash and
are in the same condition as the rest of this 36K classic. The newer wheels
have a couple small blemishes on the curb side. This car could easily be
returned to as new with minimal effort. The interior is as outstanding as the exterior. The front
seats have always been covered with OEM sheepskin covers except when the
leather was being cleaned and conditioned. A picture shows the driver’s seat bottom and
side bolsters uncovered to show the like new condition of the original seats. Pictures
show the car with a new set of OEM floormats in place (purchased with the car
new) as well as the originals which have always been shampooed and are in
perfectly acceptable condition themselves. I actually prefer the look of the
originals as the new, unused mats just look too perfect if there is such a
thing. This car can be driven anywhere in high style and comfort. Everything operates and functions as it should
and as new. Occasionally the ABS light comes on; a restart clears this and I
haven’t bothered to look any further into it since it clears itself. The only cosmetic
blemishes on this car are minimal rock chips on the grill garnish (not the hood
itself), one on the front bumper cover and a small area on the rear cover
(pictured). The front chips will be easily touched up and a decision on the
rear will be up to the next owner. So that’s about it. Nothing forces the sale of this car
besides too many horses in the corral. With an original price of 34K after
dealer options, I don’t think the asking price is unreasonable for the right
buyer who wants a virtually brand new, meticulously maintained 24 year old
timeless classic that you simply can’t walk into a dealership and buy today. Thanks

Motorweek goes retro with '80s hot hatch shootout
Mon, 03 Nov 2014Motorweek's decades of history on television make it the perfect medium to look back into the automotive past and see how things are different now. It recently added old road test videos to its YouTube channel of the Acura NSX and Toyota Supra, as well as the Ferrari F40. For one of its newest flashback clips, Motorweek has exhumed an affordable five-car challenge of 1986's premiere hot hatches.
By today's standards, this is an eclectic field that features fondly remembered classics like the Volkswagen GTI 16-valve and Acura Integra. However, it also throws in some nearly forgotten contenders like the Dodge Colt Turbo and Ford Escort GT. The angular Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S rounds out the group.
It's fascinating to watch Motorweek run the quintet through the slalom, down the drag strip and on various roads. What's most striking in this clip is the difference in the definition of a performance car between then and now. With its 16-valve, 1.8-liter four-cylinder, the GTI is the burliest of the contenders with 123 horsepower, but it still takes 8.8 seconds to reach 60 miles per hour. By today's standards, that would make it a plain-jane economy car, and not even a particularly quick one.
2021 Acura TLX Long-Term Introduction | Loving the style, testing the substance
Mon, Feb 1 2021It’s not an understatement to say that the 2021 TLX is AcuraÂ’s most important car in years. Its purpose is ambitious: to be an authentic sports sedan with premium flair. When Acura is at its best, thatÂ’s what it does, as exemplified by the Legend and the third-generation TL. Can the TLX live up to that pedigree? WeÂ’ll spend the next year seeking answers as the attractive TLX joins our long-term fleet. The TLX is the sedan for Acura, carrying most of its aspirations as a sporting brand. Sure, thereÂ’s still the NSX, but a halo car needs to shine its light on something for mainstream enthusiasts to buy. As a reminder, the ILX is a dressed-up Civic and AcuraÂ’s former flagship, the RLX, is done. Put simply, thereÂ’s a lot riding on the TLX, but early indications are promising. You will be able to find all future posts on our Long-Term 2021 Acura TLX page. What we got Our new long-termer is a TLX A-Spec with Super Handling All-Wheel Drive. ItÂ’s powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder rated at 272 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque teamed with a 10-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters. It costs $47,775, including destination charges, which puts it near the top of the TLX range. Among the TLX's standard features are LED head- and taillights, a sunroof, heated front seats, satellite radio, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and Acura's unusual True Touchpad interface. Beyond the basic equipment, Acura then breaks down content into three packages, but they're more like trim levels since you can't mix and match them, nor are there any additional options beyond SH-AWD. As such, the A-Spec basically takes the Technology package items (blind-spot warning, navigation, leather upholstery, ambient cabin lighting) and adds additional content, including 19-inch Shark Grey aluminum alloy wheels, LED fog lamps, ventilated front seats, a sport steering wheel, a wireless phone charger, and a 17-speaker Panasonic/ELS sound system. The A-Spec also looks different with gloss black accents, smoked light casings and a matte grey diamond grille that really stand out when paired with our long-termer's striking Apex Blue Pearl Paint ($500 option). Our car also arrived on 255/40 R19 all-season tires but we plan to swap them for winter rubber. Why we got it The A-Spec is the enthusiast version. It looks and feels the part of a proper sports sedan. The interior, with the supportive seats and flat-bottom steering wheel, reinforces the idea of athleticism.
Acura previews Daytona prototype racer
Tue, Aug 8 2017The IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship will get yet another competitor in the Daytona Prototype class. Acura and Team Penske will enter the series in January at the Rolex 24 at Daytona with its own car called the ARX-05. The name stands for Acura Racing Experimental, which we know means it should be called ARE, but let's be honest, "X" is a way cooler letter. The car's full reveal comes on Aug. 18, but the company released a teaser image, as well as a video, seen below, that talks about the car. The video actually reveals quite a bit of the car. It is covered in camouflage, but just the black-and-white vinyl wrap kind. It's also in bright daylight. Possibly the most distinctive part of the car's design is the wing shape that stretches across the top of the nose. It also has very aggressive-looking canards on the front corners. It doesn't look nearly as beautiful as the Mazda car, but if it's effective, who cares? The video also reveals that the engine in the ARX is based on the V6 from the TLX and MDX. When the car enters the IMSA series in January, it will be competing against Cadillac, Mazda, Nissan, and race car builders such as Oreca and Dallara. Acura will be the second company to use a V6 in the series after Nissan. Mazda uses a turbocharged four-cylinder, and Cadillac and the race car builders use V8s.
