for sale

Price: US $10,750.00

Description:

Offering unusual looks, surprising performance, and a very enthusiastic owner's community, this 1990 Buick Reatta is a refreshing change of pace from the industry's most conservative brand. A wholly untouched survivor, it has just 26, 560 original miles and represents one of the last times GM took a risk.
Built in the Lansing Craft Centre, formerly the home of the EV1 electric car, the Reatta was unlike anything else in GM showrooms in 1990. It was far more than just a shortened Riviera and offers surprisingly agile handling and impressive performance from the corporate 3.8 liter V6. The unique look has aged rather well, still looking contemporary and the years have made it seem familiar, so the wrap-around rear glass and short rear overhang look better today than when it was new. It's all-original paint . It has few scratches in that it's only been driven 26, 560 miles and garaged all the time. The original owner babied and took excellent care of this car.
The handcrafted and assembled handsome leather bucket seat interior is in excellent condition. Still focused on luxury, the leather seats are comfortable and supportive, showing minimal wear. The carpets are excellent , original mats included, and the door panels are in like new condition. An all-new instrument panel with electro-luminescent gauges was introduced in 1990, and combined with the wrap-around console feeling of the cockpit, it looks very high-tech. The trouble-prone touch-screen panel was gone in 1990, replaced by conventional HVAC controls and the usual GM/Delco AM/FM/cassette stereo system that sounds great in the hushed Buick interior. Airbags were also standard equipment in 1990, as were matching floor mats, power windows and locks, cruise control, and just about every other comfort and convenience option GM could devise. There's a good bit of storage space behind the seats and the trunk is quite spacious, making the Reatta a superior road trip vehicle that's a little out of the ordinary.
Buick's 3.8 liter OHV V6 engine is legendary for its durability and longevity, and you can expect years of service still to come from this one. It's great for low-end torque, so the Reatta feels quick around town, and fuel efficiency with the 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission is impressive even today. It's very nicely kept under the hood with signs of regular maintenance, which remains inexpensive and easy, even with the cutting-edge (for 1990) distributorless ignition system. The suspension is fully independent and perfectly straddles the ride/handling compromise and this car makes for a wonderful daily driver.
Complete with the original owner's manual (which was a big deal all by itself), this Reatta is an unusual footnote in GM history that still makes a big impact today.
It's located in Marietta, GA . For Inquiries and additional information call 770-499-1000
