Legend Spy Shot Roundup #4
Odometer (Legend): 532,749
Odometer (ILX): 116,494
Odometer (NSX): 99,627
It’s that time again, folks! Let’s take a look at some of our reader-supplied Legend pics.
Over a 10-year span, there were 477,831 Acura Legends sold in the United States. Twenty years later, how many of those are still on the road? Half? Maybe even fewer? Either way, they’re getting to be a rare sight these days. But somehow, all of you keep spotting them on the roadways and sending them to me. Please enjoy the latest collection of submissions. My friends Jack and Conor are tied for first place with the most Legends captured since last time, with 5 each.
I’ll kick it off with a unique shot. Hass in Michigan sent me a pic of this restaurant. I told him we have to eat there the next time I’m in Detroit (most likely for the 2016 North American Int’l Auto Show in January):
Now, in alphabetical order, here are the entries for this round:
Beau – Arizona
Brad – California
Brock – Arizona (what is up with that parking job?)
Chris – Maryland
Cody – Utah
Conor – New York
Cory – Arizona
Dave – Washington
Dillon – North Carolina
Jack – Arizona
Jason – New Mexico
Jim – Arizona
Mike – Arizona
Nick – Utah
Ruben – Arizona
Ryan – Arizona
Ryan – Utah
Scott – California
Sofyan – District of Columbia
Tim – New Jersey
Thanks to all who have shared these fun pictures with me. Keep them coming, and have a great weekend!

Is there a prize for the person that spots the most Legends? Maybe a DrivetoFive T-shirt or something? 😉
March 21, 2015 at 4:20 pm
I’ll think of something! Maybe a very official looking Legend Spotter certificate of recognition, signed and numbered. Ha

Good to see some Legends still on the road! Looks like its almost time for the NSX to hit the big 100K milestone too!
March 21, 2015 at 4:21 pm
I know! I have a trip for the NSX planned for the weekend of April 11th so it’ll happen then most likely.

Also on an Acura note, I was quite surprised to actually see a nice gray TL Type S. drive by me on the way home yesterday
March 21, 2015 at 4:21 pm
Nice! Is that a pretty rare sighting in your area?
March 21, 2015 at 6:54 pm
Oh yeah its rare to see an Acura TL here in Pocatello, especially a Type S.

So many Legends! In this lot, it would be interesting to know which one is the lowest mileage and which is the highest.
March 22, 2015 at 11:25 am
Jeesh, I dunno. Better yet, what I’d like to know would be the combined mileage of all the cars pictured in here. Maybe a few million?
March 22, 2015 at 3:31 pm
I happen to have a couple pictures of Legends I have seen. How do I send them to you?
March 22, 2015 at 4:40 pm
I emailed you my cell # 🙂
March 22, 2015 at 4:56 pm
Thanks!

That Cashmere Silver metallic from Washington was a 6MT and is damned good condition!! Didn’t I send you a picture of the shift knob?
March 23, 2015 at 2:01 pm
I remember it well, and yes you did send me a pic of the knob!
March 23, 2015 at 6:36 pm
Pearl white coupe I see there…memories. Lol
March 23, 2015 at 8:55 pm
Haha, miss it yet?!

Hey Tyson, I’ve spotted a couple Legends around the valley and uploaded them to Flickr – what’s your preferred method of receiving pictures?
April 22, 2015 at 6:10 am
Hey that’s awesome Ryan! Thanks for keeping an eye out. Email me – tysonhugie@yahoo.com. Can’t wait to see the pics.
