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. |

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
GM announces 6 recalls covering nearly 720k cars
Wed, 23 Jul 2014General Motors has announced yet another sprawling recall campaign, with six separate elements covering 717,950 vehicles on US roads. At this point in 2014, it's starting to seem like there are more days with a GM recall than without. Perhaps most troubling about this latest volley, though, is that every vehicle is from the past few years, indicating that GM's quality woes may not be limited to pre-bankruptcy vehicles.
The largest element of this latest campaign covers 414,333 units, and includes the 2011 to 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, 2010 to 2012 Chevy Equinox, GMC Terrain and Cadillac SRX and the 2011 to 2012 Buick Regal and LaCrosse. Only vehicles with powered, height-adjustable seats are covered. In these particular cars and crossovers, the bolt that secures the height adjuster actuator may loosen of its own accord and in some cases fall out completely. If this happens, the seats will be able to move both up and down. GM claims the vehicles are safe to drive, provided drivers don't vertically adjust their seats. This particular issue has caused one crash and three injuries.

Opel to be shuttered in China, but will restart Buick production in Germany
Fri, 28 Mar 2014Opel, General Motors' troubled German brand continues its quest to reinvent itself and find solid profitability. In the course of that metamorphosis, the company has a bit of good news/bad news today. The good news is, it will once again begin screwing together Buick models for the American market. The bad news, though, is that it's being shut down in yet another country, China.
Let's start with the good news. The last vehicle Opel's Ruesselsheim factory built for the North American market was the early run of the then-new Regal, which is based heavily on the Opel Insignia. Production ran for just over two years, from 2009 to 2011, before moving production to Oshawa, Ontario.
Now, thanks to a 245-million-euro investment (just over $336 million), Opel will kick off production of a unspecified model for the US in the "second half of the decade," according to Automotive News. According to Opel, the new model will be announced before the end of 2014. You can begin your speculation about this new model down in Comments (we're wagering it'll be the Cascada convertible, sold here under the Buick umbrella).
