This is a Reatta Convertible that is in it's original condition. I am the second owner. The original owners lived in Arizona as a retired couple, and kept excellent maintenance records. The car has always been garaged.
This is one of 65 White on White with White leather / Red trim produced. 65 of these Limited Editions were produced for the GM Dealer Award (see the attached letter from GM to the Buick Dealer), and is different from the planned Reatta production year of 1990.
Obviously it has not been driven much over the years, and it was serviced by Liberty Buick in Arizona regularly. The power options and air conditioner works great. It has a a few unique features that did not come out until 1991 Reatta convertibles including CD player, 16 way drivers seat, and the body colored rims with Reatta center-caps. The engine compartment and inside of car is ready for a white glove test. The white top is original and it has a small 1/2 inch opening (slit) on the pass side of the top....it should be able to be repaired, without the need for a new top.
The driver's seat is showing wear on the side bolster as you can see in the picture. The rest of the white leather is in very good condition.
It has been thoroughly detailed, inside and out recently. The white finish is original and you can tell that it's always been garaged. It has not been an accident.
I would rate this car to be in very good condition. The uniqueness of one of 65 and the excellent condition makes this a collector car for the future. One of these exact cars just sold for $24,500 in Ohio on September 27th last month with three thousand miles. Put some TLC into this wonderful car or leave it original, and you'll have a prized possession that will serve you well!

Buick has best sales year ever, delivers over 1M cars globally
Wed, 08 Jan 2014If there are any lingering doubts why General Motors held onto Buick while killing Pontiac, Hummer and Saturn, one only has to look at the sales numbers from 2013 for the real answer. Thanks largely to strong sales in China, Buick set a global sales record last year by selling more than one million vehicles.
The lion's share of Buick sales came from China, which sold more than 809,000 units - about four times more Buicks than were sold in North America as a whole. In the US, the Buick Encore accounted for almost half of all US sales with 97,311 units as Buick spent the summer trying to keep up with demand of the subcompact crossover. Likewise, China-only models like the GL8 minivan and Excelle sedan (same as the US-spec Verano) were strong sellers in that market.
For good measure, Buick more than doubled its sales in Mexico with 2,319 units. Scroll down for the full press release.
2013 Buick Verano Turbo
Thu, 03 Jan 2013Not Luxury. Not Sport. Not Buick. Not Bad.
Those of you who still think of the Buick Verano as some sort of callously badge-engineered, gussied up version of the Chevrolet Cruze ("Why would anyone spend that much money on Buick's Cruze?" you may have been heard to mutter) have got the wrong idea. Entirely. Even in its most modest form, the Verano turns out to be a sedan that is feature-rich, insulated from wind and road noise in proper luxury car fashion, pretty good to drive and not bad to look at in the new school of high-nosed pedestrian-impact-regulated fashion. In a less modest form then, one that attaches the word "Turbo" to the moniker and plops a force-fed 2.0-liter four-cylinder under the hood, the Verano is downright interesting.
Of course, "interesting" is rarely a descriptor that fills one with lust - and so it goes with this example. There are two competing forces within this near-premium subcompact sedan, and the balance struck between them must resonate with any potential customer before the Verano Turbo can become a serious purchase consideration.
Buick Envision CUV displays full-frontal nudity
Tue, 22 Jul 2014Earlier this month, Shanghai GM gave us a glimpse of the production version of the Buick Envision concept revealed at the Shanghai Motor Show back in 2011. And now it's released the first unveiled shot and initial details of the crossover to slot in the considerable gap between the Encore and Enclave.
The new Envision is set later this year to reach Chinese showrooms, where it will be called the Ang Ke Wei, after which we're expecting it to arrive Stateside. The production-ready Envision is about the size of the Chevrolet Equinox or GMC Terrain, but is differentiated by a more upscale treatment and Buick's signature waterfall grille, flanked by Xenon headlamps and LED running lights and riding on 19-inch wheels.
Power comes from GM's familiar 2.0-liter turbo four with direct injection and stop/start ignition, driving 256 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque through a six-speed automatic transmission to all four wheels. That's about all that GM's Chinese operation has announced at this point - it's not even clear what platform the vehicle is on - but you can check out the press release for yourself below.
