A friend of mine is selling his old car - not exactly a lease turn around vehicle, but it would be better than what I've got & I'm checking around to see what the general consensus is on this car.
its a 91 Acura Legend L 2dr: 5 spd, cd changer, sunroof, power-all, 150k miles. current owner is the son of the original owner. I know that at least the original owner took pristine car of the vehicle and had all the services done. its never given them any major problems, but it did recently overheat. repairs are being done before the sale (ignition switch, head gasket).
car is in what kbb would consider good to excellent condition, offered to me for 4500
(listed on kbb for 5470)
I've been told both that this is a good deal (being less than kbb) and also that there is no way I should even consider buying such a "crappy and old" car.
<dramatic eye roll>
thoughts?
Take a look at this post and see if you still want a Legend.
Whatever. Look at the numbers. Every car has the possiblity of failure. Hondas fail less often. MUCH less often. and BTW most honda engines are extremelly easy to work with..Sorry to hear you had a tough time with your friends legend.
