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.

2018 Buick Enclave spied looking slim in Death Valley

Thu, Sep 8 2016

The nine-year-old Buick Enclave is well past its prime, but this set of spy photos reveals that GM won't put the vehicle out of its misery, but will give the vehicle a large update instead. Our photographers managed to catch Buick testing a heavily-camouflaged 2018 Enclave testing below sea level near Death Valley. Buick was testing the prototype in Nevada earlier this year, but slapped a trailer onto the back of the SUV. Thanks to the camouflage that covers the badging, headlights, taillights, and hood, there's no way to confirm if the prototype is really a Buick or something from Chevrolet. But the circular outline on the grille has us leaning towards it being a Buick. Five LED running lights shine through the heavy camouflage, while Buick's iconic waterfall grille is prominently uncovered. The Enclave, which came out in 2008, shares the same platform as the GMC Acadia and Chevrolet Traverse. With the new Acadia slimming down and ditching the old Lambda platform in favor of the Chi platform, the Enclave will surely follow suit. The Enclave, though, is expected to get a stretched version of the Chi platform with three rows. While the entire body is concealed, the prototype's side profile looks to be slimmer than the current Enclave. With the addition of the new, lighter platform, the Enclave is expected to get GM's new 3.6-liter V6 with a nine-speed automatic transmission added later down the road. The new Enclave is expected to make its debut early next year as a 2018 model, which will be followed by the reveal of the Traverse shortly after.
