Do want...so bad (Legend Coupe)

I was browsing through CL and saw this. Id love to own one of these and this is exactly how Id mod it too. If only I could sell the CL and pick this up

Surprisingly feels lighter on its feet. It's also better balanced and has less body roll which is probably due to the engine being mounted longitudinally. Steering has typical Honda so-so feedback. The CL-S is quieter and has a better sounding engine with more torque. The Legend likes to rev a little more. On a road course I think it would be pretty close.

Classic. But make sure the head gaskets are fine.

Remus exhaust!

Man if I could take a day and drive there I would. And if I had the cash Id probably be driving her home. The more I look at it the more I want it.

Holy shit that's clean!

The only thing I'm not really feeling is the color. Besides that, it's perfect.

If they are in great shape like this one they easily fetch way more than KBB says they are worth. This one being a type II coupe in 6-speed is pretty rare too. I would trade down my TL with some cash on top for it so long as it doesn't have head gasket issues, the ad said no overheating, so it's prob worth it. Def worth 6.5k in that trim too if that's truly the case.

Yea only Type IIs are 6 speeds but theyre worth like 5000 at the most. It's a 15 year old car.

Dman, what a nice coupe. Too bad it isn't a 94-95 but at leasts it's a type II 6 speed. Plus the type-s wheels look great but I'm a little biased on those.

IMO the legend coupe & the NXS both stood the test of time pretty well so far ... would love to get my hands on one if I'm mechanically inclined ....

153K miles, don't care for the color, and wish it was not modified and had all OEM equipement but still it's a GS 6MT type 2. Great condition!

I still look every month or so for a 94-95 GS 6MT sedan for my daughter.
