Up for sale is my 1989 Legend L coupe.  I have owned the car for a little over 4 years now, and bought it off the original 1-woman owner, to the best of my knowledge.  It has 187,200 actual miles.  At the time I purchased the car, it had a clean title, but more recently, it had to be branded a salvage title(transferred from me to myself), due to a rear end collision.

*The bad:

-Needs new automatic transmission.(Only first and second gear work, reverse is completely gone and will not engage, and the car will only go about 45 mph tops, and that is pushing it.)

-Rear end and side front-fender damage.

-Transmission crossmember damaged and needs to be replaced along with new transmission mount.

-Horn and cruise control do not work, and SRS light all come on, due to suspected faulty "clock-spring" wiring within steering wheel, but is repairable.

-A/C does not work due to frozen clutch bearing, and is believed that a new compressor clutch is all that is needed that would get the a/c going again, and the compressor belt is still intact.  Prior to this problem, the a/c was blowing cold, and I added some Freeze 12 refrigerant in the system, but this was already after the fact that I had the refrigerant converted to R-134..

-Loose steering, and is believed to be worn rack and pinion, but not entirely sure.

-Interior center console lid needs reupholstering.

-Although mostly original, the interior is dirty from various food and coffee spots, and needs a good, deep cleaning.

 

 

*The good:

-New radiator, thermostat, gasket, radiator cap, and upper/lower hoses were installed at the time I purchased car, so never any problems with the car overheating, or with the cylinder heads needing any kind of work.

-Newer front upper control arms on both sides.

-Newer front inner and outer tie-rod ends on both sides.

-Newer power-steering pressure line within the past year.

-Newer, remanufactured alternator within the past 2 years.

-Newer battery within the last 6 months.

-Although shown as missing in the engine photos. the factory air cleaner box and associated duct hoses are on hand, and are easily installed back on car, and, of course, are included. 

-All 4 windows roll up and down fine, with exception to the passenger's side front window, due to a slightly interior window rail molding.

-Power locks, power trunk release, and power sunroof all work great, with the sunroof especially operating very fast with no leaks or cracks.

-Very good tread on all 4 tires, with all 4 tires matching size, and both rear tires were replaced last summer.

-All original exhaust system, including muffler, as well as catalytic converter from the factory, and the car JUST PASSED CA SMOG again with no problems.

-2 new Denso oxygen sensors recently installed.

-6 new NGK Copper plugs.

-Newer front and rear brake pads in the last year.

-Oil always changed every 3000 miles since I have owned the car.

-Excellent overall condition original interior headliner with all dome/reading lights working properly, along with both front door courteousy lights.

-All original Bahama Gold Metallic factory paint, not the greatest of condition, but is believed that it can be rubbed out to a nice shine.

-Factory Acura Am/Fm cassettee stereo will work intermittently, and when it does not work, the LCD display will only show fragments of its fully display and the sound will just completely go away and then come back.

-Matched set of 4 Infinity Reference Green Series 6-1/2" installed speakers both front and back.  The original speakers are not available, and were discarded long ago due to typical dry-rotting.

I just do not have any more time to deal with the car. The car is sold as is, where is, with no warranties expressed or implied. I have described all the defects of the car to the best of my knowledge.  With a new transmission, or the old one rebuilt, this car would still have plenty of life left in it and will drive like a Porsche down the 101 or the 405.  The car is located in the Los Angeles area, and it is solely the responsibility of the highest bidder to pick up or ship car.  Lastly, this is a lifetime Southern California car, being mostly rust-free, with exception to some minor surface rust around front driver's side front fender where damage exists, edge of muffler housing, and just a bit around interior gas tank door.

Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee earns Seinfeld four more seasons

Thu, May 1 2014

We're going to be talking about Jerry Seinfeld and his excellent web series, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, for quite a long time, as it's been picked up for four more seasons. Considering the show just wrapped up its third season a few months ago, this marks quite a big win. The new order, reported by Variety, calls for 24 episodes, with Acura carrying on as the show's sole and primary sponsor. CICGC is already slated for a fourth season this summer, which includes five episodes, and a seven-episode fifth season in the fall. Guests for season four include Aziz Ansari, Jon Stewart and Sarah Jessica Parker, although we've no idea what sort of cars are in store. It's unclear when seasons six through nine will air, but if 2014 is any indication, we should expect the bulk of the episodes to arrive some time in 2015.

Honda trademarks ZSX, could be for baby NSX

Thu, Aug 11 2016

While there have been many rumors dating back to 2008 about a mid-engined sports car from Honda, last year's report was provided the most detail about what seemed to be a scaled-down version of the NSX hybrid supercar. Honda may have added some fuel to the rumor-fire by recently filing a trademark application for "ZSX," reports Australia's Performance Drive. The trademark application was sent to the European Union Intellectual Property Office late last month and is obviously close to the NSX nomenclature. The Australian outlet also reports that an unnamed source within Honda claims the ZSX, whatever it may be, could be revealed as early as next year. The anonymous employee also claims that the ZSX will be offered as a coupe and a hard-top convertible variant, with both being powered by the automaker's 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine from the Honda Civic Type R. Just like the NSX, the ZSX is rumored to get electric motors on the front and rear axles. Previous reports match the unnamed source's claims, as the ZSX was expected to be a replacement for the Honda S2000 that ended production in 2009. It now sounds like it'll be more of a mini-NSX, with rumors pointing towards one electric motor powering the rear wheels, while two motors would be on the front axle. Patents from last year, which are pictured above, match the rumors of a mid-engined sports car. The ZSX trademark is for Europe only as of right now, while the automaker's previous patents and trademarks included the US, as well. Only time will tell if "ZSX" really stands for a sports car, or if Honda actually goes through with its plans. Remember, Nissan ditched similar plans for a small rear-wheel-drive sports car recently.
