Thanks for the vouch, Steve. It means a lot coming from you because I know you have really high standards! Can't wait to see what you've got in store for your SC. I'd settle for an automatic RSP. I've been rowing through the gears in manual cars since I was 16 and wouldn't mind having something I can just cruise along in mindlessly for a change.
Thanks guys.
LOL, yeah, actually I bought that protective covering on Ebay awhile back. I used to have ALL the carpets covered in it. I'm a little obsessive compulsive
. The plastic wrap comes on a 24" by 200 foot roll. I think it will last me a very, very long time .

Oh my goodness!!! That looks incredible. You kept it in tip top shape. Im surprised at how clean you got those carpets. 
I hope my Maxima looks that good when it hits 300K.

Actually I didn't even do anything to the carpets except vacuum them. They've just never gotten dirty I guess. The floor mats are a new set however. They only come out for special occasions .
Love the 6MT man! It's fun. Just a lot of patience and time is all it takes to keep an old car looking good.
Hass! Man I haven't heard from ya forever. Dude, you have to go to the National Legend meet next year in Tennessee! We are flying MikeD out from Germany for it! Gonna be a blast. Hope all is well with ya. Drop me a text or call sometime.

what is your secret to the amazing condition of your leather?!!
were they re-upholstered? Or do you just weigh...like no pounds and drive around in sterile scrubs... that that interior is AMAZING!!

4cruizn - wow, just wow, wow, WOW. As a former owner of an '87 Legend Coupe (5spd) and then a '94 Legend sedan 'GS' (6 Spd) - I know how great a car you have. 
You did a spectacular job and should be VERY proud of what you've done.
Too funny - before my Legends I had an '83 Prelude (my first car!). Your '91 is a lot nicer though.
Anyway, very impressive. I think the local newspapers and TV should do a story on your car!!!!!!

In the meantime, I'll be in my 1991 Prelude Si 4WS 5-speed.

They made, or should I say sold only about 500 6-Speed Coupes per year (93-95). I wouldn't call it Ferrari rare, but there are roughly only 1500 6-Speed LS Coupes in the entire USA. Japan never got the 6-Speed transmission either, only 5-Speed.
The most rare would be the 6-Speed GS Sedan. Simply because the 6-Speed trans in the Sedan came out a year later than the Coupe, so it was only available in 94-95, unlike 93-95 for the Coupe. I would say there are probably less than a 1000 6-Speed GS Sedans.
