1990 Buick Reatta Convertible on 2040-cars
Los Angeles, California, United States
It is likely if you were drawn to this listing, you know what you’re looking for. Therefore I will spare you from reading a sales pitch full of fluff with little substance. 1990 Reatta convertible with 61,600 miles – a southern California car (no body rust). This car is 1 of 60 produced with this color combination (silver/gray). Body panels are original (no accidents). Paint shines like a new penny. Engine is smooth (no mechanical issues), PS, PW, PB (brakes work as they should - no warning lights on the IP). THIS CAR NEEDS NOTHING. This is a non-smoker, pet free car that can be driven to the grocery store or across the country. Keep in mind the enclosed pictures are each worth a
thousand words, here is more information…. ~ Leather seats are in great shape (no rips or tears) and all power seat functions perform as they should. ~ Newer Haartz cloth convertible top w/ rear glass window
defogger (installed March 2012). ~ Front windshield is clean (no cracks). ~ Tail light lens is clear. ~ Interior convertible liner in terrific shape. ~ Leather steering wheel in terrific shape (no need for a $14.99 steering wheel cover
from Walmart). ~ Two working horn buttons. ~ Cruise control. ~ AM/FM/CD OEM radio with new speakers (cassette player possibly
inoperable). This radio does not crackle. ~ Antenna works perfectly. ~ Tires have approximately 70% tread remaining. Within the past 24 months, the following services have been done (besides a LOF every 3-4 months): -- AC blows cold -- Chrome dual exhaust tips installed -- New headlight assembly for easy open/close of headlight
covers -- Hoses and belts have been replaced. -- New thermostat. -- New PCV valve -- New spark plugs and wires -- New O2 sensor -- New throttle position sensor -- New GE Silverstar headlights (the entire unit, not just
the bulbs) -- Replaced ABS wheel speed sensors and accumulator -- Brake, transmission, power steering & coolant fluids have been changed and/or flushed. The original silver paint has a deep shine with less than expected scratches that would accompany a similar car of this age. Clear coat does not fade or peel. Brief ownership history: As was told by second owner,
original owner was a pediatrician who flew to Washington (state) for a seminar
in Fall, 1990. He missed his flight back home to SoCal and with time to spare
(next flight was the following day), he walked into a Buick dealership near the
hotel. Somewhat on a whim, he bought this Reatta for his wife and drove it
home. Wife didn’t want a convertible so this became his car. In 1993 he passed
away. From 1993 – 2007, the car, while maintained by his wife, didn’t see much daylight.
The wife passed away on 2007. The estate gave the car to the second owner (the
couple’s niece) in 2007. She enjoyed the car until 2012 as a job opportunity
had her relocate out of state. I bought the car from her in April 2012. When purchased, it was already well taken care of. 98% of the items I described earlier were proactive measures to replace what would eventually need attention (typical for Reattas). Not until long ago, the car was my weekend cruiser. This car shows pride of ownership dating back to the original owner. It should be driven and enjoyed but not necessarily as a daily driver (just my opinion). I have owned nine Reattas (six convertibles). My enthusiasm for the car inspired me to start and sponsor the Reatta Rally; which has quickly become the largest independent gathering of Reattas west of the Mississippi. Gratuitous plug: The 2014 Reatta Rally takes place this July in Los Angeles (http://www.ReattaRally.com). Two exterior modifications have been made: 1. Installed chrome exhaust tips (which are removable). 2. I installed 16” Reatta wheels when new tires (225/60-16) were purchased. As known, the larger wheels give the car a better, quieter ride (and fill the wheel-well better). Questions??? Don’t hesitate to ask. Additional pictures available upon request. I would like this car to be enjoyed by a Reatta enthusiast for many years to come. Mileage may vary as car is available locally for viewing
and test drive. $500 non-refundable deposit due from winning bidder within 24
hours of close of auction. Balance due
via bank/cashier’s check or wire within 5 days. Tags, title & license (and
shipping) is the responsibility of the buyer. |

2022 Buick Enclave reportedly getting Black Accent package
Mon, Jul 26 2021Buick's updated Enclave crossover will go on sale later in 2021 with a revised design and a longer list of standard features. When it lands, it will reportedly be offered with a dealer-installed blacked-out appearance package. Enthusiast website GM Authority learned the optional Black Accent package will consist of black mesh inserts in the grille and black trim on the hatch; these bits are bright in the standard 2022 Enclave (pictured). They'll be installed by the selling dealer, meaning the Enclave won't leave the factory with the Black Accent package, and the bundle has been assigned Regular Production Option (RPO) code PDM; every General Motors option gets an RPO code. Not all trim levels will be eligible to receive the Black Accent package. It'll be available on the Premium and Essence trim, according to the same source, but it will not be compatible with the range-topping Avenir trim. Additionally, buyers won't be able to tick the Black Accent box if they've also selected the Essence trim's Sport Touring Edition package or the Luxury Package that can be fitted to the Premium and Essence trim levels. Pricing information isn't available yet, though the package will reportedly not be available at launch. Buick hasn't commented on the report, and it hasn't announced plans to make a Black Accent package available on the Enclave. If the rumor is accurate, more information and official photos will be released in the coming months. Related video: 2022 Buick Enclave Avenir revealed
Buick version of Equinox/Terrain CUV spied testing... with autonomous gear?
Wed, 12 Jun 2013Let's get the most pressing bits of this story out of the way right off the bat: What we see here appears to be a new compact crossover from Buick. According to the spy photographer, this machine may be a little bit smaller on the outside than the current Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain 'utes, which makes sense since recent rumors suggest GM's small crossovers will migrate to a new platform that will mark a convergence between the automaker's Delta (Chevy Cruze, Buick Verano) and Theta (Equinox, Terrain) platforms. This Buick would likely use this new D2UX platform.
We've been expecting Buick to unleash a crossover to slot between the very small Encore and the very large Enclave, and various rumors have indicated that the model may be known as either the Anthem or Envision. It's worth mentioning that Buick had planned, back in 2009, to release a vehicle in the compact CUV market, but abandoned those plans after a particularly poor reception.
And now for something completely different... Take another look at the spy shots above, and pay special attention to the cylindrical device mounted to the vehicle's roof. We can't say for sure what it is, but our spy photographer opines that it looks quite a bit like the 360-degree Lidar camera equipment used by Google for its autonomous cars. Is General Motors working with Google on autonomous car technology? We don't know, but you can definitely consider us intrigued.
Volvo and GM team with Amazon for in-car deliveries
Tue, Apr 24 2018Volvo and GM are the first automakers to pair their vehicles with a new service from Amazon that lets owners have their packages delivered inside their cars, without them having to be there. The service will initially be rolled out in 37 U.S. cities at no extra charge to Amazon Prime members with a Volvo On Call or OnStar account, and it works with same-day, two-day and standard shipping. It's intended as an alternative for people who don't want to risk having their package stolen from their front porch or receive deliveries at their workplace, and both automakers say it's an example of how they're embracing innovation as a way to make their customers' lives easier. Volvo released a video (above) showing how the service works. Users download the Amazon Key App (or " Ama-zin," as the narrator pronounces it) and link their Amazon Prime account with their Volvo On Call account — or OnStar, in the case of GM-branded vehicles. Once they register their delivery location in a publicly accessible location, users can select the "In-Car" option at checkout. They get a notification when the delivery is en route and once it's completed and the car is relocked. Volvo has been offering in-car delivery in certain European countries since 2015 through its Volvo On Call platform, which enables services like the ability to send calendar-based navigation destinations directly to the vehicle, find nearby gas stations and help locate the vehicle when you forget where you parked it. Volvo says the platform is now available in roughly 50 countries and covers more than 90 percent of its global sales. The service is compatible with 2015 or newer Volvo, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC vehicles. Volvo says it's available to the majority of Volvo owners, while GM says more than 7 million vehicle owners can qualify. The service is expected to roll out to more cities later.
