“Wow, that’s a lot for a 24 year old Acura”

At first glance that’s what I would think too- but words don’t do this car justice and this 2 owner car isn’t for just anybody. This beauty is probably best suited for either the Honda NA museum or someone who had a Legend at one time in the past and would like to relive those days. If you could walk into an Acura dealership and buy a Legend this car is what you would drive off the showroom floor.

This car has always been garaged when not being driven, hidden from UV rays, never seen snow and rarely seen rain. During the winters while stored it was started and ran monthly. The original owner is the mother of my NSX tech, an Acura factory trained master tech. Frankly part of the reason I bought the car in the first place is that it is that it was impeccably maintained, is gorgeous and is the same color combo as my NSX- red with tan- so they look awesome sitting together.

This Legend L with a dealer-installed rear spoiler is as close as you can get to LS trim, the only difference being the black side moldings that are body color on the LS. It has soft-close doors like my wife’s Phaeton, leather interior, dealer-installed wind deflector and sheepskin seat covers. The paint is original with no accidents or repaints.

About 3 years ago to update the look I tinted the windows, installed lowering springs and larger more modern 18” wheels to bring this classic design current. The original wheels are included, have no curb rash and are in the same condition as the rest of this 36K classic. The newer wheels have a couple small blemishes on the curb side. This car could easily be returned to as new with minimal effort.

The interior is as outstanding as the exterior. The front seats have always been covered with OEM sheepskin covers except when the leather was being cleaned and conditioned.  A picture shows the driver’s seat bottom and side bolsters uncovered to show the like new condition of the original seats. Pictures show the car with a new set of OEM floormats in place (purchased with the car new) as well as the originals which have always been shampooed and are in perfectly acceptable condition themselves. I actually prefer the look of the originals as the new, unused mats just look too perfect if there is such a thing.

This car can be driven anywhere in high style and comfort.  Everything operates and functions as it should and as new. Occasionally the ABS light comes on; a restart clears this and I haven’t bothered to look any further into it since it clears itself. The only cosmetic blemishes on this car are minimal rock chips on the grill garnish (not the hood itself), one on the front bumper cover and a small area on the rear cover (pictured). The front chips will be easily touched up and a decision on the rear will be up to the next owner.

So that’s about it. Nothing forces the sale of this car besides too many horses in the corral. With an original price of 34K after dealer options, I don’t think the asking price is unreasonable for the right buyer who wants a virtually brand new, meticulously maintained 24 year old timeless classic that you simply can’t walk into a dealership and buy today. Thanks for looking!

Acura TSX Sport Wagon on the way out?

Fri, 07 Jun 2013

With Acura widely expected to consolidate its TSX and TL sedans into one model line in the near future, the fate of the TSX Sport Wagon is unsurprisingly in doubt. The long-rumored one-for-two sedan replacement is said to be dubbed TLX, and will sit above the Honda Civic-derived ILX, a model that already encroaches on the TSX's pricing and size. According to Ward's Auto, Acura officials are refusing to confirm that today's TSX wagon - effectively a re-schnozzed European-market Accord estate - is facing extinction. Reading the tea leaves, however, things certainly don't look good - the European Accord itself is said to be on the bubble and may not be replaced.
The TSX Sport Wagon was brought to the US as a niche play for the 2011 model year, with Acura of Canada taking a pass on the bodystyle. Officials said at the time that it hoped to shift 4,000 units per annum, roughly a 10-percent sliver of US TSX sales. And while Acura doesn't normally break out the wagon in its sales reports, Autoblog was able to obtain the model's totals for the last two years: the company sold 3,210 Sport Wagons in 2011, improving to 4,234 units last year. The current 2013 model began trickling into showrooms in December, but some dealers are still looking to clear out remaining 2012 models at handsome discounts.

Acura NSX to be built in Ohio in 2015

Tue, 14 May 2013

Honda today confirmed that the forthcoming Acura NSX hybrid supercar will be built at a brand-new facility in Ohio. This will be the company's third plant in Ohio, and will come as the result of a $70 million investment. Honda first hinted that NSX production would be coming to Ohio when the original concept car was revealed at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show.
Honda's new facility, called the Performance Manufacturing Center, will encompass a 184,000-square foot space inside of the automaker's former North American Logistics building and will employ 100 associates. As you might expect, the Performance Manufacturing Center is located just a few miles from Honda's American-based R&D facility, as well as the Marysville auto plant, where production of the 2014 Accord Hybrid will kick off this fall.
"The location of this facility is in the midst of one of the greatest collections of engineering and production talent in the world. So it makes sense that we will renew the dream and build this high-tech, supercar in Marysville, Ohio," said Hidenobu Iwata, president and CEO of Honda of America, in a press release.

2014 Acura RLX replaces SH-AWD with P-AWS

Wed, 28 Nov 2012

After teasing us with the thinly veiled concept earlier this year, Acura has officially taken the wraps off its all-new flagship sedan, the 2014 Acura RLX. Aside from its huge step forward in terms of styling and luxury, the new RLX could very well be the most advanced Acura model ever.
While the previous RL could have been one of the blandest luxury sedans of its time, the RLX builds on stylish cues introduced this year on the ILX and RDX. One of the car's signature elements is its jewel-eyed LED headlights that could end up rivaling Audi for the most distinctive in the business. The rear view of the car isn't as unique as the front, but no less attractive with LED taillights that have a slight BMW vibe and odd, chrome-ringed reflectors at the bottom of the fascia. The interior is exactly what we've come to expect from Acura with its dual-brow instrument panel and a sporty three-spoke steering wheel.
On the technology front, the RLX debuts driving features such as Precision All-Wheel Steer (P-AWS), Adaptive Cruise Control with a low-speed follow feature and Agile Handling Assist while the interior gets a high-end Krell audio system, cloud-based AcuraLink and a multi-angle back camera. P-AWS allows the RLX actively and independently adjust the angle of the rear wheels for better agility and braking. Acura ended up cutting almost 275 pounds from the RLX's curb weight (compared to the RL) thanks to the use of high-strength steel and aluminum.
