firstly, its due 2 the engine.. if im not mistaken the smallest engine u can get is 3.0L, n as we all know the roadtax 4 big engines above 3.0L is a nightmare in our country.. 2ndly, the legend is a very very good car indeed, it is designed 2 be a mid class luxury saloon, 2 rival against stuff like the bmw 5 series, or a merc eclass or an audi a6.. so its priced pretty much the same as its rivals.. now, if u wanna spend that kinda money on a mid size luxury saloon, would u wanna spend it on a honda n turn down that rounded blue n white logo, or that 3 pointed star??
