Man what a score. The interiors on these cars are such high quality ever surface is soft touch and so clean and easy to use
Thanks. Yea, the interior on the older cars were a lot better!
Not sure how long the tint has been installed, but it most likely protected the leather. These Legends normally have cracks in the front seats.
@@carapprentice yea I’ve seen a lot in pretty bad condition.
Just seeing the interior when he sits in it, brings back memories. Absolute Legend. You are saving this car. It has found its next home. Take good care of it. It'll last decades. You deserve it. Love the video too. Wanna see more
Definitely plan on babying this one! Thanks for checking out the vid. More on the way!
Back than driving these cars.nice
Nice car, definitely a time capsule from the 90s. They do not make them like they used to. The Acuras now with that big logo on the grill make them look like mid 90s Pontiac Bonnevilles.
Love that color too.
Thanks! Yea it’s definitely a classic car. 90s was definitely a golden era. I appreciate you watching!
Hell yeah man, looks great! Excited to see what you do with it. Congrats on the purchase.
Thanks, I’m excited myself!
I’ve got 3 Acura’s. My 2005 RL was still called the Honda Legend in Japan. My othe 2 favorite detailing channels are: Apex Detail and Pan the Organizer. Been watching them for 3 years and I’ve learned how to better detail my own Acura’s 👍
Yea I believe they were still produced as Legends overseas until recently. I’ll check those channels out, thanks!
Nothing better than 90s jdm. Classy and fun as shit to drive. Congrats on the purchase and enjoy it man they don’t make shit like this anymore. One piece of unsolicited advice, get the timing belt done if it hasn’t. That’s how I killed my 1994. Great vid
Facts, they don’t make em like they use to! Thanks, I appreciate it…and thanks for the timing belt tip. It was done around 60k per the records.
Congrats, that is a beauty!
Thanks bro, I appreciate it! I’ve definitely binged a few of your videos, and got some inspiration.
My favorite car ever. Had 2 legends. First one the same year and color as yours. This brings back memories. Enjoy!!!
Go ahead and grab you another one! Lol. Thanks for checking in bro 💪🏾
Why this video gotta be 3 days old. I’m ready for the finished finale. Please don’t take too long. I love these. I had 5 of them. 2 sedans and 3 coupes
😂 you and me both! You still got any of them?
@@portcitykg I sold my last about 5 years ago.
95 sedan automatic 🤢🤢
It was that so called pearl white with gold emblems. With 127,000mi.
If I find a coupe, I may just spend the money to LS swap it and rear wheel drive that bih. Cause that transmission placement is set up for rear wheel drive, but it boggles my brain that it’s still front wheel drive. Like wtf Acura. Give people what they want already. No one asked for the legend to be front wheel drive stupid! Lmao.
Either way bro. I’m super happy to see these cars are still respected.
Funny how I’m in the market rn currently looking for a 2012-2013 RL. Im just a legend type of guy 🤷🏿♂️
Aside from the cosmetic stuff, car looks great.
Thanks! I can’t wait to get that taken care of.
@@portcitykg A new paint job will make that car look so much better.
@@thevacdude it’s coming soon!
Congrats bro. I would love one of these whips. Happy for you
Thanks bro! It’s still some out there. I appreciate you watching!
Nice ride. Just seeing your video. Just one advice I have is to clean out that EGR pipe and the back of the intake manifold where the pipe goes. If you're willing to take on cleaning up the pipe, it can be a fun project. I did mine myself
Thanks I appreciate it. Might have to do that soon!
Interior look good 👍
Thanks, I appreciate it! 💪🏾
Nice Legend, I have 2 of theese both 91 one 5 speed manual the other one automatic, love them.
Thanks! Yea I definitely want me a coupe too. Thanks for watching!
That interior is amazing. Great pick up, then its a GS.
Thanks, I appreciate ya!
@@portcitykg yes sir
6 Speed swap that bad boii
Slap a turbskee snail on that bad boii.
Coilovers catback 👌🏿
Definitely thinking about coilovers and exhaust. Nothing too crazy though!
Congrats on the purchase mane! You just popped up on my suggested im subscribed Bro bout to keep up with the build! 🙌🏾
Thanks bro! I appreciate you! Definitely got a lot of inspiration from you 💪🏾 Waiting for the next vid!
Purposely never bought this car because of the parts issue . Regardless I enjoyed your insight and I hope you can keep it for as long as possible
I feel you! You gotta know what you’re up against hopping in one of these. Thanks!
i loved those cars, their low profile and long body.
Yea they are timeless!
What a beautiful vehicle great video.😊
Thanks, I appreciate you watching!
Nice cop, you def scored w this one. How much was it again? Auction or dealer or found it in someone’s private barn yard⁉️
Thanks! I got it from the second owner, who only had it for a year.
she clean, I graduated high school in 2000 so u already know
Yessir, I know you know then! Thanks.
Going fishbowl 😂. Love that - yeah I'm not into heavy tints either. The wheels are nice too. Some history - at one time these were called the Honda Legends before they rebadged them Acura. These were the last great Acuras with maybe the Acura TL. They have that old solid made in Japan (JDM) feel. I had a 1989 Honda/Acura legend coupe. Solid car too. Congratulations 👏
Yessir. Fishbowl or 35% lol. Yea I believe they are still called Honda Legends overseas. Thanks, I appreciate it!
Solid ride bro! There’s just something about those 90s Acuras that makes heads turn, especially when they’ve been well maintained.
I appreciate it bro! Yea they did a good job designing these cars.
Gorgeous car! I will always remember the Legend, I test drove them at the Acura dealership when they came out. It was such a sweet ride and the next upgrade from my Integra.
Thanks! I wish I had the chance to get one brand new.
@@portcitykg I was too broke then!
@@zzhou1557 me too, I was a kid! 😂
What a beauty, can’t wait for the update after all the fixes
Thanks! I appreciate it. Stay tuned!
I always wanted one of those cars, Nice
Thanks, I appreciate it 💪🏾
We had a black on black here in the West Texas desert and maaaannnn the whole top of the car looked like a bbq grill. Bad bro...my dad shoulda had a garage but he wanted these apartments and without shade the sun kills stuff. I like these wheels better because they are more muscular than our multi-spokes. It just needs fresh suspension struts and maybe even fresh springs and the ride and handling is awesome. Its not a speed demon but its meant to be like a Japanese Jaguar and it does that well.
I know that black on black was nice! Definitely should’ve been in a garage in that weather though!
Nice car with a lot of potential. Hopefully, the body shop will do a quality repair on the rust. The timing belt should be replaced every 72 months or 90K miles, whichever comes first.
Thanks! Yea I hope so too, I’m ready to bring it back to life! I may need to hop on that timing belt, thanks!
@portcitykg have you had a lot of expensive repairs also have you taken it on any road trips recently?
love the legend
Definitely a classic!
Never power wash your engine use a rag had a 1994 Camry now I drive a 1995 Camry I detail my own car again Never power wash your engine people don't realize you could damage electrical opponents.
Yea I won’t ever power wash it after that happened. I appreciate the comment!
Tight whip. I've got the exact same one, '94 GS in that sherwood green. Easily one of the best Legend colors by far. Mine is far rougher but it's one of the extremely nrare 6 speed manual sedans. Got it cheap with a broken flywheel but I plan to replace the head gasket and swap the interior to type A black which I've got in storage.
The Sherwood Green is my go to 💪🏾 I would love to see that 6 speed with black interior 🔥
Im in Ville to homboy..got 2001 Rl
Word!! Shout out to the ville! Those RLs are dope too 🔥
@@portcitykg yes suh!! I know guy who nasty on headlight restoration if u still need it
Have you had a lot of expensive repairs?
Is there any rust underneath the vehicle?
No, not any that I’ve seen! Thanks for watching!
Too bad Honda basically abandoned supporting these models.
I know right!
They wet your coil packs
Yea they definitely did something. Lol. All is good now though. I appreciate you checking out the channel!
18+ mins to explain pretty much you picked up a car... clicked on the video because i had one of those when i was in high school but disappointed with content.
I appreciate you tuning in
@@portcitykgGood content Brah👍
Bro the video is dope🔥🔥🔥 you make a acura legend video when you get one. Why you got to be negative, everybody cant make videos the way you want to make them. Smh
@@carsandallaboutcars2939 Preciate you!
@@jeromeinthehouse-l7e it comes with the territory I guess. We just getting started though. Everything gets better with time!
Have you had a lot of expensive repairs?
No I haven’t had any so far 🙏🏾
@@portcitykg um why do you say parts are scarce I own a 93 honda accord and it's ver easy to find parts?
@@DevonDavies-p7f for the Legend in particular, some parts are just discontinued with the car being so old. Mainly interior parts, body parts, and things needed to restore or replace. Parts needed for maintenance are easier to find.
@portcitykg ok but for my 93 honda accord interior parts and body parts are easy to find so is tge acura legend not as common like the accord or something?
@@portcitykg also have you taken it on any road trips recently?
