1989 Buick Reatta Sport Coup For Sale on 2040-cars
Morrisville, Vermont, United States
|
For Sale is my 1989 Buick Reatta Sport Coupe; these Buicks are rare and collectible now; this one was manufactured in November 1988 making it one of the early 1989 Models with the New Moon Roof Option for that year; Pop-up Headlights work perfectly; production numbers for 1988 was about 4,000 units and for 1989 about 7,000 units; Buyer responsible for pick-up and delivery; prefer pick-up before the end of June 2014 unless other arrangements are made; Rare black color exteriror with saddle colored interior; Car is fully equipped with Titlt Steering; Power Leather Seats; Cruise Control; Intermittant Wipers; Factory Fog Lights Electric Power Windows/Door Locks; Automatic Transmission; A/C; Stereo Radio with Cassette Player; Aluminum Alloy Rims with 4-Wheel Disc Brakes and ABS; 3.8 Litre V-6 Engine with 206K Miles (Engine runs very well and just had the Ignition Control Module replaced and a tune up); I have been told by several mechanics that GM's 3800 V-6 Engine is bullet proof and good for 400K miles; The car ran very strong from New York to Vermont, and cleared all the mountain passes with plenty of power and acceleration; selling extra car due to having to move this summer. Model Year 1989 introduced the factory Moonroof Option, and this Reatta has that option; the car could use a re-paint down the road as some of the clear coat is flaking, and some more cleaning inside, but all in all it is pretty straight and a good running car. A/C needs an R-12 Freon re-charge, but it still works fine and is just low on refrigerant (warning alert cautions about low refrigerant); I can have re-charged for buyer; the touchscreen system works, but ever so often if you hit a hard road bump, it will scroll and blank out; the PCM is fine and I have traced the problem to the ignition switch power relay; all the systems still work and a new ignition switch will probablly correct the problem. The driver's side door has two dents, and some scuffing on the door guards; it will need some body work to correct. Very comfortable car to drive and use. NADA suggest this car is worth about $3,800. This car has the rare black finish which looks really nice. I have had a lot of compliments about the car driving it around town for sure since it is so rare. For those of you who do not know, these Reattas are rare with very low production numbers and quite collectible now. They were hand painted and assembled by GM at the time; The car cost about $25K to $30K when new. Hate to see it go...Happy bidding! Any questions about conditionn just ask. |

First 2013 Buick Encore TV ad features... dinosaurs
Thu, 14 Mar 2013The whole "SUVs as dinosaurs" trope has become something of a threadbare cliché among auto writers, but that doesn't mean the wider world of consumers has caught on to the Jurassic nature of our line of thinking. That's what General Motors appears to be betting on, at least. Just check out Buick's first television spot for its 2013 Encore, the tiny crossover that is pushing the Tri-Shield into territories unknown while looking to outrun the brand's reputation as a refuge for elderly clientele.
Set to air this weekend on ESPN during the NCAA college basketball tournament, the ad plays up the Encore's maneuverability and surprising interior space by setting the baby Buick amongst a herd of lumbering CG dinosaurs created by Tippett Studio, the folks behind Hollywood blockbusters like Jurassic Park, Ted, and the Twilight series of films.
We can't help but snigger a little - while the Encore is indeed surprisingly roomy, nimble, and composed, our first drive found it to be glacially slow, too... not unlike a certain prehistoric race of animals. Check out the commercial below and judge for yourself.
We want this Buick Regal wagon rumor to be true
Tue, May 31 2016The car we know in the US as the Buick Regal is sold as a Vauxhall/ Opel Insignia in Europe, where it's offered in four-door sedan, five-door liftback, and wagon body styles. Call it a case of wanting what we can't have, but we like the last two body styles a lot. Based on a report from a Buick/ GMC dealer meeting in Austin, one of them could be coming to the US soon. According to a poster identified as 97GreenRS on the forums at GM Inside News, GM showed dealers the 2018 Buick Enclave, Regal, and Regal GS, as well as the 2018 GMC Terrain, and then confirmed it would offer the Regal wagon here in the US. While that wouldn't normally be all that much to go on, we know Buick has been toying with the idea of a wagon for some time. A Regal-badged wagon was spotted way back in 2011. More recently, we reported on a trademark filing for "Tourx" and "Regal Tourx," which suggest a long roof (Tour) and all-wheel drive (x). If the Regal wagon arrives alongside the base sedan and GS as a 2018 model, we'd expect a debut within the next 15 or so months. That would place it right at the beginning of the 2017 auto show season, which starts next September in Frankfurt, Germany. With that in mind, it seems possible the new Regal would debut first as an Opel Insignia before appearing at a US show like Los Angeles or Detroit, although there's a lot of speculation going on there. We just want to see "Buick" and "wagon" in the same sentence again. Related Video:
Spy photos of the upcoming Buick Regal wagon, via the Opel Insignia
Fri, Nov 11 2016We're pretty sure Buick is working on a Regal wagon. And because the Regal is the Opel Insignia on the other side of the pond, these spy photos show us what's in store when it eventually turns into a Buick. The rakish wagon was lightly camouflaged, giving us our best look at the upcoming vehicle. The wagon shares a lot of the same design cues as the Insignia sedan that we spotted earlier. The bottom of the front end is covered in heavy camouflage, masking the wagon's grille. It's unsure to tell whether the black nostril-like pieces sitting above the grille are vents or just tape. The prototype still shares the same upright nose as the model we spotted earlier, giving the wagon a wider stance than its predecessor. The side profile of the wagon is sleeker, thanks to the extra four inches between the axles, than the current model is, with the design mimicking that of a shooting brake instead of a traditional wagon. The rear end of the wagon is also more upright with the taillights and bottom part of the fender jutting out beyond the glass. The boxy design sitting atop of the rear end doesn't match the rest of the vehicle and appears to be a part of the car's camouflage. With the tunnel-like design at the top gone, the rear end would have a more streamlined design. With the next Regal expected to continue on as a rebadged Insignia, the likelihood of a Regal Wagon in the US look good, but aren't set in stone. Late last year, Buick filed two trademarks for "Tourx" and "Regal Tourx," pointing towards a high-riding wagon with all-wheel drive. Imagine these spy shots with a taller suspension and some crossover-inspired trim pieces and you have a wagon that could take on the likes of the Subaru Outback and Audi Allroad.
