#51 of 788 Daughter's Legend by smithed Sep 22, 2000 (1:50 pm)
My jealousy has been rekindled. My daughter drove our '91 LS home from college last evening. I hadn't seen it in a month. What a nice car. What a great dad she has

Yes, she has a great dad. Unfortunately, when she gets ready to buy her first new car, unless you are a great RICH dad, she'll have the same trouble I had -- she won't be able to afford a new one that is equal to the Legend. It's very difficult to go backwards in quality. On the other hand, I suppose everyone should have such problems....
#53 of 788 Honda/Acura hot start problem by rlove Sep 24, 2000 (10:15 pm)
I have read in several publications about Hondas & Acuras with fuel injection refusing to crank if left sitting in the hot sun for a few hours. The problem is caused by a faulty F1 main relay. The relay is located inside the car under the dash. It turns on the fuel pump and sometimes when it gets very hot inside the car it will malfunction.

I know what you mean, but I hope that I can teach her (and me) to never buy a new car. The way they are built nowadays, it makes much more economic sense to buy a really good used car. Her Legend has 105,000 miles, and we anticipate an easy total of 200,000 and maybe 300,000.
#55 of 788 How much for my Legend? by fortunate2001 Sep 26, 2000 (3:11 pm)
I have a 1995 LegendL, leather, 6-CD, automatic. (Everything else is standard). I am selling it, but wonder what price to ask. I see prices from $14K to $17,500. It is in perfect running condition, still under BtoB warranty, and has 82000 miles. the only thing keeping it from being "mint" is scratches on the bumpers from parking lots (man I hate that), and some stone chips from highway driving. Any advise on pricing the car would be appreciated.

Well, here we are on Edmunds, where you can get all the pricing information you need. Go to the used car section and look up your Legend and they will appraise it for you instantaneously. You will get both the wholesale (tradein) value and the retail price, even adjusted for mileage. I would ask for retail, because then you have the ability to meet somewhere below that when the buyer offers the wholesale price. Something in between seems reasonable to me, since you are not a dealer. Good luck. Why are you selling such a nice car?

Well, thanks, i did go to Edmunds. And kbb.com, and others. All these provide a good range. But I have gotten little response to ads, so was looking for a reality check from a human or two. Why am I selling? Because one day I was in for an oil change and took a test ride in a 2000, and well, now I have two cars

To - siriusgirl and smithed - YOu both are so true about getting a used Legend and then getting use to the quality and luxury. We bought used '86 Legend and now that we need to get another its hard to go backwards. Hopefully we'll replace with the RL. Reliability it has been a good but at 146K it has been not troublefree like my Toyotas in the past and present. Every year in last 5 plus years has been spent in $800/yr is some form of repair or another above the usual maintenance.
#59 of 788 90 Legand Auto Transmission by mkklassen Oct 01, 2000 (9:02 pm)
I recently purchased a '90 Legend LS with 130,000. The car is in excellent condition, but it seams to have a problem when it should shift into 3rd gear. Some times it won't downshift when it should and other times it will rev for a few seconds and then ultimately shift into 3rd. Anybody have any ideas as to what may be wrong?
#60 of 788 Return of the Legend by gsr99frank Oct 01, 2000 (9:51 pm)
Did anyone else hear that Acura is supposed to reintroduce the "Legend" name badge for 2002? From what I've heard, The current outdated sluggish 3.5 RL is supposed to be replaced by a sleek european styled V8 Legend. An 8 cyl. Honda engine? That rocks! The only bad thing that I've heard is the price tag may top $70,000 fully loaded. That's a bit steep for all of those Legend owners who haven't given up their 2nd generation Legends because there's still nothing out there like them. At least Acura's flagship can finally compete with the new LS430 and the Europeans. Now all they need is a Legend coupe!
