I've never seen that before. It is indeed rare if it came from the factory like that. Under the description it doesn't say if it was done custom or not.

Brings back memories. My dad taught me how to drive in a 1st gen acura legend and my first car was a 2nd gen legend.

Horrible chop job.

That's also a base Legend I guess, no wood in it, manual climate controls, etc.

I had an '87 coupe LS and later a '94 sedan GS (6 speed MT!). Both terrific cars.

Not a bad concept, just didn't quite make it to production the way I would expect. I am a 2nd Gen Legend Coupe Crack addict and would still take a 95 LS 6-Speed in red!!
