Legend Coupe LS
Strength:
More than enough class to compare to Lexus, BMW, Mercedes, ect..yet still able to keep up to most sports cars. "Best of both worlds"
Weakness:
Worst thing about owning this car is putting up with the people at the Dealership. Acura needs to addess their customer service. They are trying too hard to be be a prestige car company. So If your not a doctor or a Lawyer, ect.. they treat you like crap! (I'm 25 years old) They asumed that I was too young to own this car...(I guess they thouhgt I had to be a criminal/drug dealer to afford the car) I got into an argument with the service manager and he called the police, and tried to get me arrested. Mind you, this was a month after I bought a brand new 2000 Integra Type-R from them. I called Honda Canada and complained, all I wanted was an apollogy. I didn't get one....Bottom line their customer service sucks! The car is excellent. I have never had a major problem with the car. The motor is smooth and powerful, but could use a little more muscule. Overall I am very happy with the car. Similar Products Used: 96 Infinity I30, great car, better customer service, but the Legend still gets my vote. |

PIPA CARROS
Strength:
excellent handling and brakes. It feels very stable at high speeds. Also very comfortable. I'm 6'3 and everytime I sit on it I want to take a nap.
Weakness:
none This is by far the best car I've had. We bought it in Venezuela and drove it there at a top speed of 140mph. That's pretty impressive for a car with only 210 hp. Imagine what it would do if it had a V8. I've owned this car since 1998 and had not a single problem with it. Only the usual routine maintenance. Similar Products Used: MERCEDES BENZ E320, BMW 530I AND LEXUS GS300. In my opinion this car is the best of the bunch. |

Model Reviewed:
3.5 v6
Strength:
V6 Engine. I like the sound/roar, plus it's v.quiet after warming up. Generous specification. More toys than the GS300 (Just).
Weakness:
Depreciation!, Gear shift (1-2), Looks. Not as stylish as the GS300. Looks very bland and boring !!! First impressions, VERY smooth ride. Suspension is a little too soft. Interior has good spec. Mileage is 69,000 and is like new. ONE MAJOR PROBLEM is the automatic gear shift. From 1-2 you hear a jerk as it changes up. Slightly jerky and not very smooth either. I had a Lexus GS300 1995 before this and the Honda doesn't even come NEAR it. I will be selling this car after only 2 days (Yes I bought it yesterday!) and will be buying a New LEXUS GS300 SE next week. Similar Products Used: Lexus GS300, Mercedes CE coupe |
