I've driven this car! Yes, it is pretty amazing, but don't get me started on our Legend vs. SC400 constant competition...

Let me recap for you "4cruizn"
-cupholder
- +20hp
-additional cupholder
-tilting moonroof
-electroluminescent guages
-more than six speakers
-an automatic transmission that does not simulate a visit to the chiropractor
-padded armrest
-dual exhaust
-damn... anything else!

:blink:

who the hell are you?

Amazing how well this car has been kept up. My father had a 94 as well, great model!

Looks like this thread got bumped up!

Mileage still ticking along. 476,100 on it now. :thumbsup:

Thanks!
Definitely - keep tabs on it.
Woot. Thanks!
I appreciate it.
Haha she ain't showroom but she's decent!
:thumbsup:
Haha. I got a complicated order! You can have a Coke. It's all good, I like the SC's too. Especially the 99-2000 in renaissance red. Now if they'd thrown a 6-speed manual in the SC400 those years. YES.
Pay him no mind, he's just some trouble maker friend of mine who I let drive my car from time to time. He probably redlined it through every gear.
Indeed they are! Thanks for the kind words.

:n00b:

He's been on Azine longer than you've had pubes on your pek pek. :O

:rofl:

+1

+rep for using "pek pek"

to me, 100K is just 100K

250K, i call a journey...our family minivan "got a journey it" in 2010 buT then we sold it cuz we didnt need it anymore

I HAVE DO IDEA WHAT TO CALL 500k!!!!

a quest? a crusade? IT'S ALL YOU MAN, do the honors and i will follow you on what ever u call it with my TL

About speechless bro!

500k here we come!

May God bless the rest of the Quest!

R.

a pure credit mate to ya here is me with my 250k tsx thinking i am the dogs on original everything clutch etc, 500k my god these hondas are unreal one of the best if not the very best out there,lexus or acura/honda all the way.

Pretty fucking awesome

Here's hoping the clutch makes it to the big 500!

Wow this is truly amazing! I don't know much about Legends, but I will start looking into them now. I am going to be retiring the DD and winter duties of my 06 Accord V6 so I can prolong and preserve the car as much as I can...

And I will be looking for a "new" DD in a few months... I have been kind of set on finding a CB7 (90-93 Accord) in good condition to use as a DD/winter car, but seeing your Legend is going to open up the search to Legends as well.

Good luck with your journey

update on the miles bro....how many miles are you at now ???

Who the Hell am I?! Well first off I have owned every Acura and Lexus model ever known to mainstream America, and second, I am a huge fan of the Legend. I just have a great time getting in his car and asking him where I am supposed to put my soda? I drove a SC400 while he has had his Legend, and we enjoy a lot of Lexus and Acura competition. I have been an active member here for over ten years. Since before you were born...

legit car, props for being a hardcore Acura fan. I'll be checking on the status of this! Good Luck!!

watch out for BHGs...

:werd:

I wonder if someone has retrofitted the UA3 fan control onto the Legend, seems to reduce them.

Beautiful car, I would love to own one of those old legends. Also thats insane, so many miles yet the car still looks new! great job on keeping it up.

Absolutely beautiful Legend! I am on the same quest with my 06 TL although I only have 38k right now. I had a friend that had a white 94 coupe back in the day that I always lusted over. Since I want my TL to last as long as your Legend, can you tell me what type of oil and filter combo that you have been using? :thumbsup:

I can't believe how clean that thing is. It would have been rotted a long time ago here :(

Thanks everyone for the motivation and support.
Right on. Glad I could lead the way. With a little bit of care I'm sure your TL will go equally far.
Woot. :racing:
For sure. I'm a believer. 250k on your TSX is awesome!
Thanks!
Me too. It's still hanging on! It's interesting to swap driving between my two Legends since the sedan has a brand new clutch and it's SO light. Then I get in the coupe and get a serious leg workout running this thing.
Hey I saw that you already made your way over to the Legend forums and were welcomed with open arms. Hope you can find the right car. Let me know if you need any advice along the way. I've owned 8 of them.
I turned over 478,000 on the way home from work this afternoon. Crappy cell phone pic.

Sweet, keep tabs on my blog. http://drivetofive.wordpress.com. I post updates about once a week.
Thanks!
This car is 100% dealer maintained. 5W30 oil, OEM filters, 3000 mile change interval. Like clockwork.
I've been really lucky to live in the desert southwest most of my life. This Legend has seen only two winters in Utah. I've been towed once from getting stuck in the snow, in fact. I was always careful to keep the undercarriage clean though. There's not an ounce of rust anywhere on the car today.

478K :woot:

mods time to update the thread title ???

:woot: Go Legend!!

i fell in love with this model because of this thread

what mileage are you at now bro ?

Sweet. One of my favorite Acuras out there. And you have done an amazing job caring for it. Hats off to you.

Can't wait to see it go over 500K.

Hey, it's a fitting time for a bump!

I'm at just under 487,000.

I just got back tonight from a 5,600 mile drive coast to coast. Over the past 10 days, I drove the Legend from San Diego to New Jersey, and back to Arizona. I posted each night in my blog if anyone would like to follow the adventure. This car trucked through 17 states without skipping a beat.

Great read! Thats a lot of driving though for one week! :thud:

Awesome!

Hope the drive through PA was scenic! I know there are a few nice roads away from urban PA cities.

wow...hope I can get at least half of what this legend has accomplished on my 3G TL.

:werd:

Every time I see a Legend Coupe I think of this thread and your car approaching 500,000 miles.

:cheers:.

HOLY SHIT....5800 miles....

next time you in kansas city, holler at me....drinks on me :D :woot:

Do you ever go to the Pavillions show on Saturday nights? I would love to see the Legend in person!

<-- Lives in Old Town Snotsdale

Do you take these little drives just for fun or some other purpose?

Honestly, if the front bumper was cleaned up, you could probably trick me into thinking its some rare legend that was never driven. The thing is freakishly good looking for its mileage and age. Good luck with your goal.

See I was 9 when this car was brand new, so unfortunately I don't know much about the legend beyond the fact that it is one of the acura holy grails of a car and that I know one when I see one.

Again, good luck.

Way too much! Need a few days to recover, but I'm sure I'll be wanting to do it again soon.
It was very scenic! Loved the tunnels on the 70 turnpike. Cost me $12.45 to get all the way through the state.
I'm sure you will!
:thumbsup:
Nice! I think there are a lot of vehicles capable of this mileage, it's just about taking care of your car.
You got it. Driven through KC a bunch. Closest I got to you this trip was Springfield.
I live in south "Snotsdale." I used to do Pavs frequently but it's been years. PM me your contact info - I'll drop you a text if I head over there this weekend. Definitely staying in town to relax & recover!
Just for fun. My work commute is only 10 miles each way. This trip was to attend the 7th Annual National Acura Legend Meet held in Morristown, New Jersey. My car is the only one in the nation to have been to all 7 NALM's since 2005: Dallas, Tulsa, Vegas, Chattanooga, Branson, Salt Lake City, Morristown.
Glad you enjoy! Keep an eye on the blog! :D
Yeah the front end is definitely going in for a refresh at 500k. Actually, budget permitting, I plan to respray the whole car. Thanks again guys for your support. Will keep the thread updated as I get closer.

i need to check into a-l more frequently... i can't believed i missed this years NALM in my own backyard!!! i would have loved to see your car Ty...

wow this thing is meticulous. my altimas got 192k. all were put on by me, my dad and my mom. trying to go 200k and beyond
just wish my car was as spotless as your legend

Tyson, you know I am watching for that 500k mark. After your trip to NALM I knew you be getting close.

Well I definitely won't be going this weekend. Heading to a Mazda meet in Mesa Saturday morning so I won't make the Pavilions that night and my parents are in town next weekend. You'll probably be at 500k by the time we both get up to the show lol.

Hey 4cruizn (I think you're name was Tyson, I apologize I'm horrible at remembering names), it was great meeting you yesterday. I wish I could of had more time to stick around and talk with you and check out your car. Keep us updated on your story!

That car will live forever :)

so you came all the way from AZ to Morristown NJ which is 30miles from me and i didnt even know... thats sad...

good luck on your quest im sure you'll make it till 1 kk

As if your girl doesn't hear it all the time, she's absolutely gorgeous. She's in excellent condition, kudos for keeping her so clean.
I love those 94-95 Legend coupes! Hopefully I will be able to pick one up sometime next year.

Fawking SWEET!!! You are a Legend among Legends my friend. Coming from a true fan boi, I am Jealous. I wish Big Cat were with me today so I could have a similar story. Too bad our story had a few too many potholes.

I rolled over 490,000 yesterday coming back into Phoenix from Utah.

Keep an eye on the blog for updates in the coming 10,000 miles!

Yeah bummer about that! I only ended up being in NJ for 2 nights and the rest of my 10-day trip was spent elsewhere on the road!
You'll get there. I think "most" new cars are built to withstand 100k, 200k, with attention to maintenance.
Thanks man! Yeah stay tuned, a couple more cross country trips and I'll be there.
Hey it looks like I'll be in town this coming weekend. Let me know if you want to rendezvous at Pavilions on Saturday for a bit.
Yes, great meeting you too! I was trying to think of your screen name so I could send you a PM but couldn't remember for the life of me. Loved seeing your DBEIGHT and getting a behind the scenes look at Acura/Honda. Hopefully they will invite us back again soon.
I sure hope so!
You should. They're still around - just be patient and find one that's been well maintained as they can be expensive to repair if mechanically or cosmetically neglected.
Thanks sir, it's an honor!

I'd love to see them make the Legend Coupe again, but rwd turbo with a bunch of other goodies!!

You will hit 500k without a doubt :thumbsup: Did you happen to see any Acura 3.2 CL's in that American Honda museum?

:rave:

dude this thread puts a smile to my face...

amazing. :)

almost there!
i think i found my next DD
