if you're talking about the new accords, nothing would make it better.

imo legends were very advanced in their time. automatic climate control, vaccuum sealing doors, navi (only in japan of course)...just to name a few things.

do some reading on http://www.acura-legend.com if you havent already

well imo, legend coupe > 96 accord sedan/coupe > legend sedan

i dont like the styling of the legend sedan too much (sorry steve )

however, there are a few exceptions...

the v6 accord in those days only had an updated version of the g1 motor (2.7 liter V6)

if you want more luxurious car, get a legend, but if you want good gas mileage, get an accord

The legend still turns heads if u have a nice set of rims on it and lowered a bit.. the rear is kinda boring, but the front is pretty nice, similiar to Bimmers..

The ride is very good when compared to an accord.. the only gripe i have about my legend was the Gas milage.. wish it had more power for the gas it ate... , but that can be offset by getting some light weight wheels a bit..

Over all, I loved my Legend when i 1st got it and when gas was around $1.19 for premium.. Times have changed and I dont drive it anymore.. btw, here's a pic of my legend on Koni reds and OEM springs..

first you abuse me, then you use me, jon.
isnt it sposed to be the other way around?

i'll tell you one thing about the legend...
people (who don't know cars that well) usually think that my legend is only 3-5 years old. they are shocked to find out that it's actually 11.

what rims are those??
they look like prelude rims.

they actually look good with the legend, if that one wasnt lowered too damn much.
