Just bought my aunts 93 Acura Legend L Sedan. It's got 160k miles on it,but its been well maintained and the body is in pretty good condition for an 11 year old car. I just gave it a wash and wax job the other day.

The front windshield needs to be replaced because it has a golf ball sized crack in it.
Timing belt needs to be changed
and the front and rear bumpers have a few little scratches but no major body damage.

Wow, it has a nice body. It almost looks like a BMW without the curved hood.

nice looking car. seat looks like it's in good shape, that type tends to tear up after a while in my experience.

I offered my aunt 5k for it but she told me I could have it for 1k (basically what she put in it for the last maintenance)

That's awesome!
I love the interior, nice big guages and the stereo is positioned perfectly. I had no idea acuras were that ergonomically sound 11 yrs ago. Honda gets my respect even though i never owned one.

if you look at the front pic theres a white spot that looks like a bird dropping, thats actually a crack which is approx the size of a golf ball diameter. Its blocked by the rear view mirror but i'm afraid it will spread. I used a windshield repair kit on it but I don't think that will help.

Nice car!
I've always been partial to Acuras... There aren't many affordable luxury vehicles that are as reliable as they are.
I'd buy one if I didn't hate Honda and FWD ;)

you've got one of the best cars that have come out of Honda/Acura. Enjoy it man!

Anyone notice how the engine is placed in a RWD configuration even tho the car is FWD?

Wow, for $1k that's a great deal. Imagine the other types of cars going for $1k, and won't find ANYTHING like that.
