1990 Buick Reatta Base Coupe 2-door 3.8l on 2040-cars
Roslindale, Massachusetts, United States
I drove this registered in NH till July of this year. Parked it and bought another driver as this car is loud and needs work. Replaced the muffler with a shiny cheap muffler that does very little to quiet the car. It has a number of issues and that's why it is selling cheap. So the bad: Needs e brake cable. Needs new muffler, needs new vent window and mirror passenger (tore this and mirror off. And a variety of small things such as radio which works but volume jumps up and down, maybe a new window motor passenger (not sure, but it was at least slow last time I used it). The idle runs high sometimes. The abs light has and is always on but haven't noticed any changes in the brakes. Needs a new wiper arm on passenger, the old one bent. The car was registered in NH and there they don't title, but may need some efforts to get a copy of recent registration (have the plate number). I believe you can request a title or register using recent July records.
The good: Engine runs good. Trans shifts fine. New front calipers, rotors and brakes approx one year ago. New calipers and brakes rear approx one year ago. New fan motor. 4 new tires, bought them about 1k ago for $500.00. The undercarriage is in beautiful shape, for some reason the dipped these cars in untra rust proofing. The interior is in average condition, no major problems. This could last you another unknown number of miles should you want to put in to it a bit of sweat equity and own a classic car. I can't see this car becoming less valuable it is one of few cars in the 90's that have 2 seats, style and collector value. I still have my 90 convertible and that is creeping up in value. Or use it for parts for your own Reatta, the windshield alone are selling for $6-$700.00 online. |

What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name
Thu, 07 Aug 2014
The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
2014 Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse recalled over brake mix-up
Thu, 08 May 2014The recall madness over at General Motors isn't letting up anytime soon, as evidenced by this latest call-back of 8,208 Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans. For those keeping track, this is the fifth recall that GM has announced in the past two weeks, not to mention the massive ignition-switch issue from earlier this year.
GM issued a statement saying these sedans are being recalled due to "possible reduced braking performance," according to Automotive News. The problem? Rear brake rotors may have accidentally been installed in the front brake assembly. And since both cars use more robust braking systems up front than out back, braking power could be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.
Automotive News reports that, of the over 8,000 cars being recalled, about 1,700 are currently in the hands of customers, while the others are still in dealer inventory. GM is unaware of any crashes or injuries related to this problem. All of the affected vehicles are from the 2014 model year.
2023 Buick Envision prices up by at least $1,900 over 2022
Sat, Sep 10 2022When Buick uploads the configurator for the 2023 Envision, shoppers will find the mid-sized crossover more expensive than the 2022 model. GM Authority got hold of next year's pricing, revealing that MSRPs will go up by $1,900 on the bottom two trims and $5,810 on the top Avenir trim. The new math, which includes the destination charge increasing $200 to $1,395, erases the discounts that arrived with 2022 Envision pricing earlier this year. Retail cost for the coming Avenir with front-wheel drive after the destination charge will be: Preferred FWD: $34,795 Essence FWD: $38,895 Avenir FWD: $47,055 Adding all-wheel drive means another $1,800 on the Essence and Avenir. Doing the same for the entry-level Preferred means pushing MSRP up by $3,650 because of the $1,850 Convenience Package is mandatory when turning the rear axle. The $1,900 upcharge for Preferred and Essence entails $1,500 for three years of OnStar and Connected Services, GM making the telematics service standard on the Cadillac, GMC, and Buick lineups as well as the Chevrolet Corvette for next year. That leaves the remaining $400 as a pure model-year price bump. The much larger rise for the Avenir is because it comes with a lot more equipment. For 2023 this trim makes the $1,965 and Technology Package II and $1,450 Panoramic Power Moonroof standard. The Technology Package adds enhanced LED headlights, adaptive cruise control, adaptive dampers, enhanced automatic emergency braking and parking assist, and a rear camera mirror with washer. Those bundles represent $3,415 of the upcharge, adding $1,500 for OnStar takes that to $4,915, leaving $895 as the model-year price bump. The rest should be carryover, save for potential changes to the exterior color menu. If there's any big news for the model next year, it would be the potential arrival of an Envision GX that would add about eight inches of overall length, with two of that between the wheels.
