I am selling my 2005 Carbon Grey Pearl Acura RL (Legend). Car has 164K miles on it. This has been an amazing car for the last 5 years. The last 2 years it has been a stored car over the winter and pretty much only driven for pleasure. It is a very comfortable riding show car. The car has placed well at several car shows this past year. The endless hours of wrenching and doing all the work myself has been an amazing journey. I wish i could keep it but it is not practical to have 6 cars and only 2 really get driven. I am the second owner with no accidents. Comes with a folder full of dealership statements for repairs and fixes. Heat and A/C are working great.

The car is extremely well cared for. Detailed always by carpro products. Has Carpro Cquartz and Hydro2 protection for the plastidip. Windows are treated with carpro Ceriglass. The wheels are coated with Cquartz Ceramic quartz.

Now the car is not PERFECT it does have some flaws
Door handle sensors no longer work. Known reoccurring issue with the 05’s i have had 3 different door handles and got tired of fixing it.
The temperature display does not work due to the custom dash. (heat and A/C work perfect just no temperature readout)
Driver side door wood had some heat damage when vinyl was applied to it.
Driver side seat has normal wear for 164k with 1 small tear in a perforation in the seat.
Trunk. The original owner left the Riverside Acura decal on the car and the adhesive has left a permanent etching below the clear coat that says Riverside (Currently have a Airlift sticker covering it and it does not show)
Driver side foglight on Lip slight discoloration in the dip spot is about 3” long by 1.5” tall barely noticeable.
Stone chips in the bumper, lip and hood as expected with a higher mileage car
