First generationThe model was introduced in 1986 to be Honda's premier luxury model in Japan and the range-topping model in their new Acura lineup. A 2.5 L V6 powered both the sedan and coupe at introduction, although 1987 coupes were upgraded to a new 2.7 L unit (C27), which appeared in the sedan for the 1988 model year.

Second generationSecond generation units became available for the 1991 model year, now using a 200 hp SOHC C32 engine. By this time, the Integra was using a DOHC, VTEC equipped I4 engine, so Honda's choice to utilize a SOHC, non-VTEC engine in the Legend came as a disappointment to some fans who were hoping that the NSX's 290 hp 3.0 L C30A engine would be used as-is in the Legend. Ultimately though, the DOHC engine proved too expensive to manufacture to be a cost-feasible option in the Legend. Nonetheless, Honda made significant upgrades to the second generation Legend for 1993, and a 230 hp "Type II" version of the SOHC C32A engine became part of the package. Styling updates and new available options rounded out the big changes. Following in 1994, both coupe and sedan versions received minor refreshenings via new front bumpers and subtly revised trunk lids. The new top-of-the-line model for the sedan became the GS which was available in both six speed manual and four speed automatic forms.
