The Acura Legend belonged to the first cars marketed under the Acura nameplate in the USA when the luxury car division of Honda Motor started its North American operations in 1986. Sold up to 1995, the Legend was sold as both a coupe and a sedan. It was the top-of-the-line sedan under the Acura nameplate until it was replaced in 1996 by the 3.5RL. Acura Legend sedan models were the first to be introduced, and these cars drew their power from a new 161-hp (120 kW) 2.7L C27A engine.
Car and Driver magazine was impressed with the car and named it one of the Ten Best Cars for three consecutive years. The Legend likewise earned kudos from Motor Trend magazine which cited as the 1987 “Import Car of the Year”. Manual-equipped Legends could accelerate to 97 km/h (60 mph) in under 8 seconds and reach a top speed of 135 mph (217 km/h). Sedan models had a coefficient drag amounting to 0.32, while the coupes were rated at only 0.30. Other technical specifications include a 24-valve V6 engine, four-wheel disc brakes, double-wishbone suspension, air bag and an information system that could monitor maintenance interval, fluid levels, and fuel economy.
