Acura Legend GS 6 speed manual

But I couldn't find one under 150,000 miles at the time

So I did the engine swap

All they had to do was make that Legend larger than its real size to compete sizewise with the new competition, and place it as the new RL's skin (but retaining the SH-AWD et al), and I think Acura would be back on track.

I noticed how good the old legends looked compared to new cars one day when I was driving up to the transportation museum in Brookline last year. Me an a black legend happened to be pacing each other for about 30 miles. Not racing, but cruising in and out of traffic at a leisurely 65-70mph. I got a really good look at the car from all angles, and it's suprising how the legends styling still looks good today. I hope my CLS stands the test of time like that. Maybe "understated" (bland??) styling is like that... Either way, I like it...
