1991 Buick Reatta Base Convertible 2-door 3.8l on 2040-cars
Haughton, Louisiana, United States
This auction is for a 1991 Buick Reatta
convertible in mint condition. No
scratches, no dings. It only has 8,569
miles. It has new Michelin tires with
less than 500 miles on them. It has a
new Optima battery. The A/C has been
professionally converted to 134A refrigerant.
It comes with a custom car cover.
The original radio stopped working, so we replaced it with a GM factory
radio with CD player and equalizer. It
was a plug and play installation, so no wires were cut, and it sounds
awesome. As you can see from the
picture, the LED on the radio matches the other dash display perfectly. We’ll include the original non-working radio
in case you want to put it back to stock. The Buick Reatta
is a sport coupe designed by GM which was powered by a 3.8 liter V6. It was the
first car Buick advertised as a two-seater since the 1940 Buick model 46. It
was a handmade luxury sports coupe produced at the Lansing Craft Centre in
Lansing, Michigan and sold by the Buick division of American automaker General
Motors from early 1988 to 1991. Like the Cadillac Allant?, it was based on a
shortened version of the GM E platform used by the Cadillac Eldorado,
Oldsmobile Toronado and particularly the Buick Riviera, with which it shared
many mechanical parts, advanced electronics, and interior furnishings. The Reatta sported its own unique body style and was crafted with an attention to hand finishing uncommon for a mass-produced automobile. The assembly was performed at a small series of craft stations - each with a specialized team of workers, rather than a conventional assembly line. After a team had completed their portion of the assembly, the car would be moved by robots to the next station in the series. All of the paintwork was subcontracted to PPG Industries personnel - who performed the work on site. Every Reatta included a leather book containing the owner's manual and pen. In 1990 and 1991, a zippered owner’s folio was included. In addition to the owner’s manual, it also contained a "Craftsman's Log" with the signatures of the supervisors for the assembly of the car at the various craft stations.These slightly unusual items were an attempt to sell the mass-produced car as one built with individual care. This auction includes this owner’s folio. Also included is the original window sticker and a brochure for 1991 Buick cars and a CD about the Buick Reatta. This car was 1 of only 305 convertibles manufactured during the last year of production for the Reatta. This car comes from a smoke-free home and has been kept covered, in a garage. In my honest opinion, this car would satisfy any collector or someone looking for a new car. This car is being sold, as is, without a warranty. Shipping (both arranging and cost) is the responsibility of the Buyer. Local pickup is available. Upon completion of the auction, a deposit of $500 is due within 2 business days. Remainder of the purchase price is due within 7 days from close of auction. If you have any questions or need any additional information, please feel free to contact us. |

Bob Seger's Detroit Made music video is an homage to the Motor City
Tue, 16 Sep 2014At this point, Bob Seger feels like the living embodiment of old-school rock 'n' roll. The Michigan native has been strumming out classic records like Night Moves for decades, and he just released a new single called Detroit Made. It sounds like a future staple of just about every classic car show within the next few years, and the video is dedicated to the Motor City, past and future.
Detroit Made is all about cruising in the city in a classic Buick Electra 225, perhaps better known as a "deuce and a quarter." It's straight-down-the-middle rock and could just as easily be from a decades-old Seger album as something new.
The video for the new single mixes shots of American classics cruising along Woodward Avenue with a contemporary look at the city. Sure, there are the well-known dilapidated buildings falling into rubble, but the people there aren't just letting the city die. Other parts show the attempts to clean things up and rebuild. Check out the video if you need a few minutes of old school rockin' in your life.
Buick Envision Plus is a seven-seater tweener developed for China
Tue, Apr 20 2021Buick has filled the gap separating the Envision and the Enclave with a new crossover named Envision Plus. Launched at the Shanghai auto show, the three-row people-mover is scheduled to go on sale in China later in 2021. The plus-sized Envision stretches 190.7 inches long, 74.1 inches wide, and 66.7 inches tall, figures that make it around eight inches longer and two inches taller than the regular Envision. It's also a full 14 inches shorter, four inches narrower, and three inches lower than the Enclave, which is the biggest crossover in the Buick range. Designers didn't settle for stretching the Envision's wheelbase. They gave the Plus a more upright front end characterized by a taller grille, a flatter and longer roofline, and a redesigned rear end accented by a strip of bright trim that connects the lights. Only photos of the upscale Avenir trim (shown above) have been published so far. Images of the cabin are not available yet. We expect the Plus offers an interior close to the standard Envision's — from the driver's point of view, at least. The biggest difference is that the longer Envision lives up to its name by letting motorists take more gear or kids along for the ride thanks to a more spacious trunk and third-row seats. Power for the Envision Plus comes from a turbocharged, 2.0-liter EcoTec four-cylinder engine fitted with 48-volt mild-hybrid technology. Bolted to a nine-speed automatic transmission, the turbo-four is the same basic engine found in the American-spec Envision, where it develops 228 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, but figures for the Plus weren't released. Front- and all-wheel-drive models will presumably be available. Buick will release pricing information closer to the model's on-sale date. As of writing, the Envision Plus has only been announced for China, where it will be built, but unverified reports claim it will arrive in American showrooms before the end of 2021. We've reached out to the company, and we'll update this story if we learn more. 2021 Buick Verano Pro GS View 5 Photos What else did Buick show in Shanghai? Buick no longer sells sedans in America, but it remains present in that segment on the Chinese market. In addition to the Envision Plus, it unveiled a model named Verano Pro developed specifically for China, built locally, and aimed at relatively young buyers. At launch, motorists will be asked to choose between the regular sedan and a sportier-looking variant that wears the storied GS emblem.
Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.
