I am currently in the market for an inexpensive used car. I am currently considering a 1997 accord dx and a 1994 acura Legend. Need advice from experienced Honda guys as this will be my first honda, and DD for work. Thanks in advance!

First, mileage, price, and condition would help.  Have they been babied or abused?
 
Are you looking for comfort, style, speed or just a DD?
 
The Legend has more HP, worse mpg, probably more comfortable, and may need premium gas (not sure though).  I have a 97 LX, the only difference is the DX basically has power nothing.  Its been a great car, no problems, and it has 93,xxx miles on it so far, but there are lots with near 200k. 
 
So I would say just test drive them choose whichever one you like more!

The Legend: 208k with rering/rebuild @170k supposedly, recent paint very clean under hood, $3k
 
Accord:167k, new belts, timing belt, water pump, tires, valve adjustment, cv axle, and radiator.
Thank you for the reply, your input is greatly appreciated. Please keep it coming.

Accord.
 
Newer.
Less miles.
Smaller (that's just my preference).
 
But don't take my word for it, because I haven't driven (or even looked at) either one of them.
