Overall:
This car has been a reliable and smooth daily commuting cruiser for me for 16 years in Texas. This is the top of the line Acura Legend GS sedan, fully equipped back in its days. I bought it from an individual owner in year 2000 when it was about 60k mi. I think this car originated from Acura of Boston. I never had problem with clutch or transmission. It always passes emission test each year. I keep it in garage all the time. ABS brakes is functional. It drives straight and the ride is smooth. No problem with AC, warm or cold. On average I change Mobil-One full synthetic motor oil every 5-7k mi. I especially enjoy the stability and predictability of the ride, attributed to longitudinal arrangement of 90-degree V6, Type 2 engine. I believe it is rated at 220 HP. The car weights around 3500 lbs. The acceleration and power delivery is very linear and smooth due to it being a naturally aspirated engine. Its profile is low, sleek, and straight. The seat is lower than most of the sports sedan nowadays. I think the seat just a couple inches higher than today's Corvette. I consider it as a no-nonsense, straight up four door sports sedan. I use carnauba wax. No rust that I can see.
P.S.
Engine bay is not spray washed so you may see it for what it really is: that as with all cars over 100k mi, valve cover gasket may have to be replaced. Amount of oil stain around the cover is consistent with cars in this age.
The car is being sold As-Is. Buyer pays shipping. Let me know if there are anything you want to know or see about this car.

March 24, 2016 - Please note that fog light cover in driver side, under the front bumper, is missing. Some photos taken earlier shows it was there at one time. Certainly I didn't have any accident or hit anything. Probably the fastener was loose because of the age.
