The other seats were like new. Drove it to 270k milles and a friend totaled it. Real sad day. That car was a true Legend.

Very nice car, Eric, great find. Amazing to see no rust whatsoever. The attention to detail back then was everything with the Jap cars. I once owned a 1985 Mitsubishi Galant - it was years ahead of most other cars on the UK roads. Inside it was extremely quiet and relaxing to drive - your average Ford, Opel, VW or even BMW felt like a noisy tank compared to it. Sadly standards must have slipped over the years, because many years later i bought a 1999 Galant - i was disappointed with how average it felt.

Oh, interesting that you bring up the mid-80s Galant. A friend's dad had a late 80s Galant wagon and that was a wonderful vehicle.

Very awesome car! I had a '91, white on black cloth interior, 5-speed manual. Loved it, but a knee injury forced me to sell it for a slushbox. Had it longer than I've owned anything else, about five years. Never let me down, not even once. There's a very close-knit community of enthusiasts for these cars, and parts can definitely be found if you're seeking them.

You have a gem there. I remember drooling over the legend coupe growing up. Finish restoring it and enjoy it man! The rear compartment is most likely where the first aid kit was located I think.

Wicked find on the retro radio with the aux port. I have same trouble with my 01 Civic. Going to order one myself. That car blows brand new cars out of the water and it's a 6 sp.

so many 90's luxury features. love 'em... looks like it was well-cared for. congrats eric.

Rumor has it that fewer than 800 of these (w/ the 6 speed) ever made it to the states, and even fewer are still on the road. Sweet find.

Eric you have good taste in cars. I have driven these when they were new back in the "90's and also felt that this was a high point for the Japanese car makers. I have always liked these so I understand how you feel. I occasionally see one of these from time to time and have seen a coupe recently that was in excellent condition. They still turn heads, especially with the people that know what they are. Good choice on your part and keeping it stock is the wisest thing you could do. Keep working on it and keep us informed.

I just LOVE this car so much! Eventually it'd be the car I'd like to drive everyday, maintain and keep forever. Hope i'm able to find one soon at a reasonable price and maybe put some work into! Keep the great videos coming!

Wow thanks for the reply! I wish. Unfortunately I live in Canada and I wouldn't be able to or afford to bring this one in at the moment since I'm just finishing up college.But I hope to be lucky enough to one day to find one with lower mileage and a straightish body that I'd be able to fix up maintain watching your videos.

Man this car is clean!!! Super clean and wow didn't know Honda made such hi tech luxury mods in the car. Love the sun visor above the rear view mirror. Very crazy motor trans configuration. Totally thought it was read drive. And sweet on the 6 speed. I wish my Civic had a 6 speed. Clean find Eric.
