Honda Legend - Barge of the future?

[Blue Oval84]

Just looking at the price these are falling to and was wondering if fellow Pistonheaders think these may be featuring in the barge thread shortly?

They seem to tick a lot of barge boxes, does anyone have one or know what they're like to live with?

The old one was good barge material, similar to a Lexus.

This one's front end reminds me of a Chrysler Sebring.

Doesnt make as good sense As the XJ V8 he has for sale for half the price

but japanise, good build, good reliability, will drink fuel but be cheap to maintain.

Though it's a Honda, it is a fairly complicated machine with plenty to go wrong, and weren't there rumours of the gearbox being a weak link (or was that the previous model?) I'd go for the Lexus if I were you

I'm new to the PH Forums, what does 'Barge' mean exactly?
