Rare Gem 1992 Acura Legend L Coupe In "close To New" Condition! on 2040-cars
Mill Valley, California, United States
I LOVE this Acura Legend L Coupe, which is why I've decided to let it try to find a better home. I've had it exactly two months (two weeks of which I was out of the country), but after driving very nervously and parking very carefully, I've realized that this RARE GEM needs to belong to someone who can treat it as a "special" car, not their "only" car (like me). This may be the next best thing to buying from the original owner -- here's the history as I understand it: the first couple bought the Legend new in Sunnyvale, CA, and took delivery with seat covers installed. They then moved to one of the Hawaiian Islands and lived there for nearly 20 years. They didn't drive much (obviously -- 33K miles in 22 years!), always used the sunshield, and always kept it garaged. I'd be surprised if anyone has even been in the back seat! They then moved and had it shipped back to California, decided they needed a larger car, and sold to a young man who treated it like an investment and kept it warehoused except for a couple short road trips. He then (reluctantly) put it on Craigslist and -- as the former owner of a 1990 red Acura Legend coupe -- I was delighted to find it! However, I've since realized this lovely Legend SHOULD'NT be someone's only car, it's too-nearly perfect. After picking it up, I immediately took it in to Marin Acura for 30,000-mile service. The only problem they diagnosed was the windshield washer motor and tank needed to be replaced. I then discovered that it was a little hard to start when the engine was hot, and Marin Acura diagnosed a fuel injector relay problem which they also replaced. It's now in excellent mechanical condition and EVERYTHING works -- all the switches, seat levers, power locks and windows, trunk button, sunroof, antenna, etc. The second owner installed new tires and replaced the (buzzing, paper) rear speakers -- everything is clean & original, right down to the leather key cases! I'm keeping it garaged during this auction so the mileage and condition remain unchanged. May this beautiful Legend find its way to the right home … and if it doesn't meet the reserve price, then I'll assume I'm the right home and I will do my best to relax and enjoy my beautiful ride. Available to be seen / test-driven with appointment.

LoveFab headed back to Pikes Peak with NSX-based heathen [w/video]
Tue, 02 Apr 2013LoveFab had a rough run at Pikes Peak 2012. During qualifying on Day Two, owner and professional driver Cody Loveland launched his car off of the course at nearly 60 miles per hour. Never ones to be dismayed by a few bruised ribs and some busted body panels, LoveFab is headed back to the hill climb for 2013, and this year, it's bringing Garrett along as a title sponsor.
Loveland's chariot of choice is officially dubbed "Turbo by Garrett/LoveFab Pikes Peak Enviate" and is loosely based on an Acura NSX. All of the stock Japanese components have been swapped for LoveFab-built pieces with the exception of the subframes and suspension.
With a dry-sump LS1 V8, chromoly-tube chassis and a full carbon fiber body, the car is about as wild as they come. With around 800 pound-feet of torque on hand and a curb weight of under 2,000 pounds, the machine should give the mountain a run for its money. The team is expected to begin testing Enviate beginning May 1. You can check out a quick interview with Loveland in the video below along with the full press release.
Honda marks 20 million vehicles made in the USA
Thu, 20 Mar 2014Japanese automakers manufacturing in the United States is nothing new. But it was in November of 1982 when the first Honda Accord rolled off the assembly line in Marysville, OH. It was the first Japanese vehicle assembled in the US, and in the nearly 32 years since, Honda has made 10 million Accords here for a total of 20 million cars manufactured in America - enough to span from New York to San Francisco twenty times. It's that double landmark which Honda is now celebrating.
Honda has come a long way in those three decades, keeping that original plant in Marysville on line while expanding to three more - in East Liberty, OH; Lincoln, AL; and Greensburg, IN - with a fifth plant (the Performance Manufacturing Center) opening on the same site in Marysville to build the Acura NSX next year. It also builds engines in Lincoln and in Anna, OH, and automatic transmissions at Russells Point, OH, and Tallapoosa, GA.
Between those seven sites, Honda produces 11 different models, including the Accord, Civic, Crosstour, CR-V, Pilot, Odyssey and Ridgeline as well as the Acura ILX, TL, RDX and MDX. Production keeps on ramping up as Honda produced a record 1.3 million vehicles in the US last year, 95 percent of which are sold in the US. Scope out the details in the press release below and click the image above to see it all laid out in a handy infographic.
Honda to present HR-V, updated Acura ILX at LA show
Mon, 20 Oct 2014Honda has already showcased its new Fit-based crossover around the world. We've seen it in Tokyo wearing the Vezel name and we've seen it in Paris in 'prototype' form. We've even seen photos of the US-spec version. We just haven't seen that North American model in the flesh, but that'll all be fixed next month at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
That's where Honda will, at long last, unveil the US version of its new HR-V subcompact. The Japanese automaker hasn't told us much else, save to say that the HR-V will, of course, slot in below the CR-V in US showrooms. It'll also feature the company's lauded Magic Seat system, "which allows for multiple seating configurations and the ability to fold the second row seat completely flat for added cargo space."
Alongside the HR-V, Honda's luxury division will also be showcasing a revised version of its ILX sedan at the LA show as well. Acura hasn't revealed precise details of what revisions are in store for its smallest sedan - or a more detailed photo than the teaser inset at right - but it is promising "a comprehensive update that include a potent new powertrain, more forceful, sporty exterior styling and a substantially upgraded interior design."
