1988 Buick Reatta Base Coupe 2-door 3.8l Mileage 90367 Red Exterior Tan Interior on 2040-cars
Macon, Georgia, United States
I purchased this Reatta from an elderly gentleman in Allentown, Pennsylvania on December 3, 2011. (Mileage 89493) Previously owned by the original owner, a lady in Silver Springs, Maryland. I drove the vehicle back to Georgia non-stop without any issues until I was approximately 3 miles from my residence when the a/c and alternator went out. I continued to drive my other identical 1988 Reatta that I had purchased new in June, 1988. I now have bought and restored a 1948 Ford F-100 and a 1976 Triumph TR6. Consequently, I do not need to keep the Reatta I am now offering for sale. I have also recently sold my original Reatta to a gentleman in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. I replaced the entire a/c components and the alternator on this Reatta at 90350. None of the more common Reatta problems exist on this vehicle. The headlights pop up and down, the Michelin tires are like new, the windshield has no chips, cracks, etc., The leather seats are excellent; no wear spots, tears, etc. The non-smoked in, overall interior is in excellent condition. I have always kept this Reatta stored in an enclosed garage as it was by the prior owners. Another common problem with the early Reattas is the clear coat peeling issue. That does not exist here due to the indoor storage during the lifetime of the vehicle. I am 70 years old and that is a factor in my selling this vehicle. I am listing the Reatta with No Reserve because I do not want to go through the hassle of re-listing it over and over. I would appreciate a reasonable bid somewhere in the neighborhood of $3500. Please feel free to call me @ 478-755-1943 or email me @ Snoopy1333@cox.net. with questions. I have $5659 invested and will definitely take a loss. Thank you for your bid and consideration....Jim in Macon, Georgia.

GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles
Tue, 06 Aug 2013General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.
Buick might be getting a logo makeover
Fri, 23 Nov 2012General Motors has finished off an extensive model overhaul for its Buick division, but along with its updated cars, the brand might also be getting a new logo. According to the Detroit Free Press, GM North America President Mark Reuss indicated that the Buick tri-shield logo could be getting a makeover, but offered no further information.
It is unlikely Buick will completely redesign or replace its current logo, but the article seems to indicate that it might return to color; although all chrome now, the logo used to feature red, white and blue shields. Head on over to the Detroit Free Press article to look at some past Buick logos including one from 1904.
Movie Review: Black Air: The Buick Grand National Documentary
Thu, 06 Dec 2012As Buick currently claws and scratches its way back into relevance to compete against luxury brands like Lexus and Acura, it's hard to believe that not too long ago, the brand had a car that was mentioned in the same breath as Corvette, Lamborghini and Ferrari. That car? None other than the Buick Grand National. All black with a turbocharged V6 and some of the quickest acceleration of its time, the Grand National, in today's standards, is along the lines of a 2013 Shelby GT500 with both cars essentially being a working man's supercar.
The last Grand National rolled off the assembly line in Flint, MI on December 11, 1987, and to mark the silver anniversary of that somber occasion, Black Air is a documentary of the Grand National from the perspective of the enthusiast, the collector, the media and even from those at General Motors responsible for creating such a sinister legend. Like the car itself, Andrew Filippone Jr. shoots the documentary in a raw fashion, and it definitely helps to show why a low-volume muscle car from the 1980s is still the object of obsession for many automotive enthusiasts to this day.
