Thanks for the pics, some very nice acura legends. I like your black LS too, I've seen it in some other threads. Wish I could have gotten my legend to that meet!

Wow, I used to sweat Legend coupes back in the day! It's great that they're coming back in style. Do they have they're own forum and meets?

we have meets all the time. I would love to link AL and CL together for a good meet. The next meet is coming up and I think its at hot import nights but cant remember right now. If its something that people would be interested in I could set something up, if not cool.

They sure do.....but, the owners are getting younger as the price of a used Legend drops. The problem is the combination of a lack of aftermarket support for the Legend and the limited funds of many younger owners. This leads to many mods that seem cheap.....and it's ashame because back in the day, a KA8 coupe retailed for $50k.

I miss my coupe.....it was the first car I modded heavily

For those that have stated smart little remarks about his grill. He stated it from the beginning that he had issues with his grill. So why beat it down some more. It's redundant.

If you want to make a comment fine, but do so in a constructive and considerate manner.

Charris, especially since this is your first post. We strive here to give a sense of community, so if your just going to bring negativity to this forum, please do not post here. As the saying goes... If you have nothing good to say, you shouldn't say anything at all.

Thanks for the pics.. To this day I am still feeling the Legend coupe. Timeless design.. I had an Acura CL back in 1999, but it did not compare in design to the Legend coupe.. Anyway, take a look at this LS400 owned by Stefan of D2Autosport.. I can see your car like this in do time..

Stef's car was the first one I seen here.

The reason why I have strayed from 20's is that I live in Brooklyn. These streets are not kind at all. I drive from BK t queens everyday so that is a no go.

I am in the pondering stage of continuing to work on my LS or get something newer. It always come down to that. Right now I need some little suspension work, but as we know a lot of little adds up to a lot. I love my car though and it still turns heads, I'll just see how I feel. I wish insurance rates werent so high I would keep this and still get another car.

Mark that coupe looks damn familiar. Were you on that forum before or maybe someone you sold it too. I put that down as my dream coupe when the question was asked.

Mark, nice car. You never forget your first. The car that started the obsession.

Hey Pito, why is it that you appear at Acura meets and not Lexus meets? We have a large meet this sunday at Alley Pond Park, bring your Legend buddies. Its open to everyone.

I was at the meet at Eisenhower park. To be honest I felt more comfortable with the legend crew. It's amazing how everyone became so cool so quick. At the lexus meet, it felt more like everyone had their little clicks. I had a good burger though and hope that somebody enjoyed the beers I brought.

I will put it out there for the legend guys and see if anyone wants to role
