Known in the US as the Acura RL.

Isn't it going to get that retarded new Acura grille? If not, it looks pretty good. If it does, it'll look retarded.

Isn't this just an Acura RL? I see the TSX (at least the last-gen) as the spritual successor to the Legend, which was so lithe and nimble, especially the first gen.

I loved my '89 Legend Coupe, it was a great handling car with incredibly precise steering. Quite unreliable though. But I would get another one- I always keep my eye out for used 3.2 CL Type S 6M.

^^^^ Oh, didn't we already see those? Didn't I say it would look good without that stupid grille? W/e.

I guess I was right.

"Legend" was definitely a cool car name!

Sal Collaziano · 07-04-2008, 01:07 AM

I'm not crazy about the new grille but this car is supposed to be "full size" and rear wheel drive - so it should sell well anyway.. Oh and it's supposed to be a v8 too..

Boy, Sal, that full size classification has been shrinking each year.
