I purchased this Reatta from an elderly gentleman in Allentown, Pennsylvania on December 3, 2011. (Mileage 89493)  Previously owned by the original owner, a lady in Silver Springs, Maryland.  I drove the vehicle back to Georgia non-stop without any issues until I was approximately 3 miles from my residence when the a/c and alternator went out.  I continued to drive my other identical 1988 Reatta that I had purchased new in June, 1988.  I now have bought and restored a 1948 Ford F-100 and a 1976 Triumph TR6.  Consequently, I do not need to keep the Reatta I am now offering for sale.  I have also recently sold my original Reatta to a gentleman in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.  I replaced the entire a/c components and the alternator on this Reatta at 90350.  None of the more common Reatta problems exist on this vehicle.  The headlights pop up and down, the Michelin tires are like new, the windshield has no chips, cracks, etc., The leather seats are excellent; no wear spots, tears, etc.  The non-smoked in, overall interior is in excellent condition.  I have always kept this Reatta stored in an enclosed garage as it was by the prior owners.  Another common problem with the early Reattas is the clear coat peeling issue.  That does not exist here due to the indoor storage during the lifetime of the vehicle.  I am 70 years old and that is a factor in my selling this vehicle.  I am listing the Reatta with No Reserve because I do not want to go through the hassle of re-listing it over and over.  I would appreciate a reasonable bid somewhere in the neighborhood of $3500.  Please feel free to call me @ 478-755-1943 or email me @ Snoopy1333@cox.net. with questions.  I have $5659 invested and will definitely take a loss.  Thank you for your bid and consideration....Jim in Macon, Georgia.

GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics

Mon, 20 Aug 2012

After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.

NFL QB Cam Newton and supermodel Miranda Kerr star in Buick's Super Bowl ad

Wed, Feb 1 2017

Buick's Super Bowl LI ad is another demonstration that its cars aren't frumpy anymore. The ad opens with parents watching their children play football, with one of the dads, we'll call him "Dad No. 1," shouting encouraging words to his son. In the background, a bright red Buick Cascada pulls up, and another dad, "Dad No. 2," points it out. Dad 1 doesn't believe him, and says, "If that's a Buick, then my kid's Cam Newton." All of sudden, his son transmogrifies into Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton. As expected, he quickly dominates the game, with some amusing results. At the end, when a Buick Encore shows up, the referee inadvertently turns himself into supermodel Miranda Kerr, based on apparent disbelief over what constitutes a Buick. You can see all of the shenanigans in the video above. Plus, if you'd like to see what goes into making a Super Bowl commercial, Buick produced a short video with Newton and Kerr showing what happens behind the scenes. You can check it out below.

J.D. Power: Mini, Lexus again offer most satisfying sales experience

Thu, 29 Nov 2012

JD Power has released its annual Sales Satisfaction Index Study, and once again Mini and Lexus have taken top honors. Overall, buyers are more satisfied with the auto-buying sales experience than they were last year, with those surveyed reporting an average score of 664 points on a 1,000-point scale. That's up from 648 in 2011. Dealer satisfaction also increased by five points over last year as well.
All told, Lexus brought home an index score of 737, which was high enough to put it atop the luxury brands for the second year in a row. JD Power says Infiniti came in second in that category with a score of 728 and Cadillac rounded out the podium with it's rating of 725. Speaking of Infiniti, that brand saw the single largest jump in sales satisfaction of any brand on the survey, popping up 52 index points over 2011.
Among mass-market brands, Mini ranked highest with a score of 712, followed closely by Buick with 706 and GMC farther down the line with 683. You can check out the full press release below for more information.
