Acura Legend Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1986–1990) — First Generation
The first-generation Acura Legend arrived as Honda's luxury flagship, offered as a smooth four-door Sedan and a lower, sportier Coupe. Both bodies pair refined V6 power with front-wheel drive and comfortable long-distance manners.
Every Acura Legend engine here is a gasoline V6 driving the front wheels, prized for quiet running rather than raw force. Sedans such as the 2.5 MT use the smaller displacement, while Coupe versions like the 2.7 MT and 2.7 AT add torque; the manual feels livelier, the automatic easier in traffic.
