    I just flew from NY to LA and back yesterday just to buy a 93 coupe L 6speed Type II. I've owned several Hondas and Acuras but this was my most ambitious and gratifying purchase to this point. Can't wait to join the Legend enthusiasts club.

    Man this is cool. She is gorgeous, so clean. I just picked up a 95 Legend coupe that needs restoring. Undergoing a mechanical diagnostic as i type. I've wanted a Legend since before I had a license lol. I respect the dedication getting yours back to showroom condition, I plan to go more of a rest-mod lol. Starting with coilers that are in transit, I want BBS RS wheels, and Custom paint. Hope you've still got this beauty.

    I had a 95 Acura Legend for 23 years, it was very clean, black with tan interior. Don't forget to change the gear oil transaxle oil L'm not talking about the transmission fluid. The drain plug for the transaxle oil is on the right side by the front tire, use a 3/8 rachect to remove the drain plug.. The fill plug is right above that drain plug..

    Hey Tyson. Im Ruffin and i also reside in Phoenix. I too am an Acura fanatic and Ive sitting on a 1995 Legend coupe which Id love to restore and maintain as my daily driver. The things is that Ive driven it for a few months after spending over $3k repairing it at a local reputable garage, only to be severely disappointed when i blew the head gasket again. I have watched a number of your vids over a long period of time now and i see that you are very thorough when it comes to fully restoring the same era Acuras and i must admit that Ive also become a fan of your work as well as become inspired by you as well. If you dont mind, I would like to meet you if at all possible and Id also love for you to give me any information you may have about any mechanic shops here in the valley which provide top tier service for these Acuras of the 90's so that i may avoid being burned as I did when dealing with the local mechanics. My goal is to restore her over the time that Im also driving her so i could really use a mechanic in which I could build trust. Have you got any info to help me out with? If so could you reach me at johnsonrj101@gmail please?

    I only wish it was a LS/GS with a 6-speed manual trans. ;) Nice work brining that back. Over the years, people don't source the proper parts and they just get cheap aftermarket crap - like the lights - and these cars usually end up in the scrap yard. At least this is one back to good and hopefully it will be that way for a long time.

    How are the seats in such amazing shape? How’d you restore the number covers?!

      I think the seats were redone by the previous owner. What are number covers?

      @@TysonHugie oops: I meant bumper covers (the rear was beat up when you got it and the front had a deep gouge or burn)?

    My Dad had an '88 Legend coupe, gold, auto, super pretty car, but I've heard the 5 speeds had clutch and drivetrain issues. Timeless cars for sure though.

      Nice! The older body style. I have heard more issues about the automatics than the manuals. Sweet cars for sure.
