Guys I'm having trouble posting here. I get an error message everytime! What am I doing wrong? I want to show you a car I looked at yesterday! EDIT: I figured it out; but a mod may want to move this to the gallery... Thanks!
You guys are not going to believe this! I went to the Acura dealer in Las Vegas today for an oil change (BTW, I rolled 139,999.9 as I pulled in
). I saw on the Internet yesterday that they supposedly had a white '94 LS coupe six-speed with only 6,500 miles! I thought the mileage must have been a typo. But I was determined to find out for sure.
As I'm sitting there waiting for my car (enjoying complimentary soda and surfing the forums in the Internet lounge) I looked through the window into the service bay. It was in there! I could tell from a distance that it was spotless. I asked if I could go out there and take a look -- they said, sure. So I did. Oh my gosh! I have never smelled a Legend that smelled so NEW! This thing was BRAND NEW! The six-speed shifter looked like it had never been touched. The seats are immaculate. I could go on and on. There is just not a flaw on the entire thing.
So I had to get the story on it. This car was just recently purchased by Falconi's Acura from Honda Motor Co. The car was owned by Honda! It was kept in a warehouse in LA for 10 years and "forgotten" until this dealer picked it up just days ago! Apparently the dealer paid an insane amount (well over book) for the car. It's a true collector's item. They were putting in a new battery while I was there. The car is going to be put into the showroom.
I am good friends with the used car manager there, Louie, so I asked him if we could pull the car outside for a couple of pics. He said that was okay. So we did! It fired right up and sounded sooooo smooth. I was drooling all over the place.
"So what's the price tag?" I asked. Get this guys -- you can have it for only $28,990! I guarantee that's the most expensive Legend on the market right now -- stock! Incredible. But I guess you figure -- the car booked at $43k in 1994, and it has less than a year's worth of miles on it... but STILL, it's 10 years old for crying out loud!! How much would I love to pick that baby up!!
I think we should all pool our money and buy it! Make it the acura-legend.com sponsored ride! I'll volunteer to take care of it
