Sad day… did this car just give up?

The end of the road for this one… 55k miles and full Honda history. I barely felt the impact and somehow managed to drive it home 18 miles in the rain. It only started overheating less than a mile from home.

There’s hardly any of these on the roads. I’m sorry to hear that. My Legend was a blast. It felt like a sofa on wheels with 3.5L V6 VTEC power.

Yeah, I only got it in May and was really happy with it

Wow, you still drove it? And it made it that far?

It didn’t survive though, insurance has written it off

What car is that?

It’s a Honda Legend, but in the US, it was sold as the Acura RL

Interesting, I’ve never seen one before. It kind of looks like a mix of an Accord and a Civic. Probably a basic comparison, but that’s what it reminds me of

@Dezi
It’s bigger than an Accord, has a 3.5 V6, and a pretty clever 4WD system

Sounds like a fun ride, sorry for your loss

They’re rare because people with money just didn’t buy them

Exactly, but back when they were new, they were too expensive for what they were

Yeah, they were priced like a 5 Series when they came out in 05. Really sharp, tech-forward, and stylish.

Very underrated car

They even had a carbon fiber drive shaft.

Are you going to fix it or let insurance take care of it?

Pull the front calipers off and sell them to me for cheap lol

Insurance is taking it. Copart is coming next Thursday

Just jump on the hood with your full body weight, like stand on it. I did that once and found a RL at the junkyard with a good hood.
