This is a rare opportunity to own a like-new example of Acura’s top of the line luxury sport sedan in Garnet Red
Pearl which is 100% original. I am the second owner and like the first owner, I have meticulously maintained this
car to keep it showroom quality. It still smells like new. The interior has been kept protected by all things
ranging from a dash mat, rubber floor mats, and $325 custom made front seat covers by Wet Okole. I drive it so
infrequently, the car is practically sterile. (weekends only).
I should note that any paint flaw you think you see in the picture is more than likely a reflection from the
polish. I could rant and rave about how this car looks like it just emerged from a time capsule but only seeing it
in person does it any justice.
For those of you who have never had the pleasure of driving a Legend before, the engineers at Acura knew exactly
what they were doing when they crafted the powerful 3.2L V6 engine. The Legend is wonderful to drive! Under
acceleration the characteristic growl of the Acura V-6 is amazing. At cruise the car is smooth and quiet.
In terms of its mechanical reliability, this car gets an A+. Although the usual timing belt/water pump change
interval is usually 80k miles. I have already gone ahead and had those components replaced as a preventative
measure. Because as you may know, rubber can still crack over time regardless of use. Oil and filter are new and I
make sure to keep it that way. It also has like new Michelin MXV4 tires which make the car ride extremely smooth
and quiet. Air conditioning blows ice cold, like it should. If you're a connoisseur of the Acura Legend, your
search may be over.
While I'm not in any particular hurry to part with this machine, I've come to the conclusion that I have too many
vehicles already and this beauty doesn't do me any good being the "eye candy" that I drive on weekends, so while
I'm reluctantly posting it for sale, I am ready to find it a new home.
I know it's a tired old saying, but whoever ends up buying this car is getting one hell of an automobile.
Now you have the chance to own an incredible piece of classic Japanese luxury.
NOTE: Vehicle is also subject to local sale.

Acura NSX bodywork to be sheathed in zirconium e-coat, fewer paint layers

Tue, 05 Aug 2014

Automakers make halo cars to drum up excitement and show off what they can do, but there's more to it than that. Advanced platforms allow a company's engineers to experiment with all sorts of technologies. And in the case of the upcoming new Acura NSX, that includes new paint processes.
Speaking with Autoline in this video interview, Honda's North American Senior VP Jon Minto talked about an innovative zirconium e-coat which it's applying to the new NSX. Unlike some experimental paints developed for Formula One, however, this coating is not designed to minimize drag or enhance cooling: it's designed to be more environmentally friendly.
It's one of a few measures which Honda is implementing on the NSX before expanding it to more accessible models, along with another process that uses fewer coats to reduce energy consumption by 40 percent. Watch the interview with Autoline host John McElroy right here.

Acura recalling 76,000 TSX sedans in certain cold-weather states

Sun, 24 Mar 2013

Parent company Honda is issuing a recall for Acura TSX vehicles from model years 2004 to 2008, for a rather interesting fault with the electrical systems (well, kind of). It seems that TSX made between during that range have carpeting that degrades when it becomes saturated with "corrosive materials for deicing." The carpeting is in contact with each Acura's electronic control unit, which may in turn rust or become corroded as a result. All of that business could cause the engine to stall.
Acura is singling out cars registered in states that use these corrosive deicing materials (presumably road salt): Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin and the District of Columbia.
Owners of affected vehicles will be notified by Honda and instructed to bring their cars into the nearest Acura dealership. Dealers will inspect the ECU for damage, replace if needed, and cover with a waterproof piece; all free of charge. Check out the official recall notice below.

Acura recalling 19.5K cars over automatic braking problem

Thu, Jun 11 2015

Acura is recalling 19,502 vehicles to fix a software issue with their Collision Mitigation Braking System on the 2014-2015 MDX and RLX, plus the 2014 RLX Sport Hybrid. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration the technology can falsely interpret things like metal fences and guardrails along the side of the road as obstacles and unexpectedly apply "emergency braking force." Obviously, that would be rather disconcerting while driving. Number of Auto Recalls by Model Year | AxleGeeks According to the detailed documents from NHTSA, the first account of this happening came from Japan in November 2013, and that vehicle was rear-ended when the system suddenly braked. Another incident was identified there in June 2014. However, there have been no reports of this happening in the US. The fix is quite simple, though and just requires a software update for the system. Affected owners will be notified by mail, and the repair will be done at no charge. Related Video: RECALL Subject : Activation of Collision Mitigation Braking System Report Receipt Date: MAY 20, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V301000 Component(s): FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE Potential Number of Units Affected: 19,502 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) ACURA MDX 2014-2015 ACURA RLX 2014-2015 ACURA RLX HYBRID 2014 Details Manufacturer: Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) SUMMARY: Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Acura MDX 2WD and AWD, RLX and 2014 Acura RLX Hybrid vehicles. In certain driving conditions, the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) may incorrectly interpret certain roadside objects such as metal fences or metal guardrails as obstacles and unexpectedly apply the brakes. CONSEQUENCE: If the CMBS unexpectedly applies emergency braking force while driving, there is an increased risk of a crash. REMEDY: Honda will notify owners, and dealers will update the CMBS software, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Acura customer service at 1-800-382-2238. Honda's numbers for this recall is JQ4, JQ5 and JQ6. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
