  • This car took 38 years to get to 100,000. Glad I was able to commemorate the occasion at an appropriate location. Thanks for watching!

    Stickers go on windows, so the paint fades evenly. I could barely watch that part.

      @TysonHugie  4 месяца назад +6

      Lol. It was a homemade sticker held on temporarily with scotch tape. You don't know me very well if you think I would leave a sticker on the paint :)

      Can't believe how a couple of comments went after me last week for not saying what I sold my Lude for on your last video. But yet they never ask you what you buy or sell a car for much less how much you spend while you have it.

    Nicely done... I have 88 accord just completed 300,000 miles. Still all original in gold color. And not even a scratch on it.
    I bought it in 1996 from the Acura dealership. Only had 2000 miles on it. Drove all over the USA.
    Love this car, and all my other cars. My passion

    When I was a kid my aunt had a new 87 accord and I heard nothing about this Acura legend. I guess they were just starting and cost more. I didn’t know about Acura until the 91’s came out. I remember later on my nephew wanting this version of the legend because by then they were on the used market. It’s always nice to see the car hit its milestone.🤩

    Congratulations on getting the 86 to 100K!!
    That car is a spitting image of my first ever car, I had an 87 Automatic, didn't have the moonroof but it is otherwise all the same!! Hell, the windows even sounded the same LOL.
    Question!!?? did you have or have ever had a Legend have trouble starting in cold where you had to starve the engine out to get it to stay started? I had to clamp the fuel line with a set of vice grips to get it to stay on!
    In any case, well done, thanks for the channel sir! Ill eventually get another Legend in the garage, just not in the cards for me now, however I am quite happy with my 2019 Ridgeline, that Acura logo will be on another vehicle I drive, mark my words!

    • @TysonHugie
      @TysonHugie  4 месяца назад

      Nice, thanks for sharing. I haven't had any issues with cold start symptoms, in fact it's the opposite, sometimes the car takes a couple of cranks when it's exceptionally warm. Enjoy your Ridgeline, they are awesome vehicles.

    One question, do you know where your Legend was produced?
    We in Europe got the ones produced in the UK. But they were also made in Japan back in the days.
    From 1989 and on Honda/Acura switched completely to producing these Legends in Japan.

      Agreed, and this 2.5 only lasted for 2 years! By 1988 all Legends had a 2.7, then in 1991 they went to a 3.2. Love the original sound and feel.

    What a fitting place to do the 100k rollover with the 1G Legend! Very, very cool!
    Random question - if I was to jump in the 1986 Legend after driving my TLX, what do you think would be the biggest differences I would notice in driving dynamics between a current vehicle and a classic/historic Acura like your 1986?

    • @TysonHugie
      @TysonHugie  4 месяца назад +1

      I notice a strong sense of “connectedness” with the driving experience (no touchscreens, analog controls) and heightened visibility in the 1986.

    Very nice car, and it seems like it handles well too. Btw, the gas cap on my Accord coupe self unscrews when the tank is full or nearly full and the weather is hot. I always tighten it until I hear a few clicks. Do you think there's a problem with it, or maybe the EVAP system is broken?
