No longer lurking...a proud Legend owner

mr_jn · 03-06-08, 09:06 AM

Hey everyone,

I've been lurking through the forums for quite some time doing research. After several months of searching, I came across a small used dealership and there was this gorgeous black-on-black LS coupe sitting in the lot. The interior was clean...VERY clean. I couldn't believe it was a '95 at all.

I went back to the dealer and gave it a test drive. Absolutely feel in love with it. We negotiated on a price and now I am one happy SOB.

Words cannot describe better than pictures, that's why I posted some below!

1995 Acura Legend LS Coupe ;]

Good close eye's you've got. Just till you make sure maint. is good, use your key and slip it into the slot that is under the light in the dash and it will turn it back to green.

A little over 6k. I had a friend of mine who's a Honda mechanic take a look at it and he said it's in good shape. I made an appointment at the Acura dealership tommorow for servicing just to be on the safe side.

It has 127,785 miles on the clock as of today. I kinda set myself back by spending that much but hey, i'm not complaining.

unfortunately, the repairs gotta wait. ;\

Not too shabby. If at all possible, get the mechanical stuff done ASAP, especially a check-out of the cooling system. The cosmetic things can wait as long as it's running good.
