Low owners very original Reatta convertible
1990 Buick Reatta -- Description
The 1990 Buick Reatta convertible is a specially-crafted high-luxury and high-feature machine. This is when Buick dared to dream big and offered an expensive car few people could ever afford. So to find an excellently preserved example like this, for such an affordable price, means you have found a true gem.
The factory white paint on this well-preserved and respected car instantly sets the elegant tone this car commands. And details like the matching white roof, wraparound rear panel, and subtle blue pinstripe reinforce this upper-class image. In fact, the luggage rack on the trunk is positively European. But the Reatta is also known for looking sporty, too. It's truly a performance-oriented design with swoopy lines, folding headlights, and 15-inch factory alloys. Overall, workmanship is very good, because it was built at a factory specially set up by GM to create these low volume personal luxury cars. In fact, there were less than 2,500 convertibles produced over a short two-year lifetime. So while General Motors is known for mass production, this Reatta can almost be considered hand-crafted.
The blue pinstripe on the exterior gets you ready for the full blue interior. So with the top down, the glossy white and rich Navy Blue makes for quite a striking color combo. As a true luxury machine, this one doesn't disappoint. The dual leather bucket seats are power adjustable so you and your passenger can dial-in an individual level of comfort. Yours is particularly well-done with multiple adjustments for the ideal driving position. This was built to be a true driver's machine, and so Buick even gave it an electro-luminescent gauge panel. As expected with a car of this caliber, it comes with all the best features, including power windows, power locks, tilt steering column, cruise control, cup holders, the factory premium AM/FM/cassette/CD stereo, and even a driver air bag. Plus, full automatic climate control means staying comfortable even when the top is down.
When you open the hood, you're treated to more of the well-maintained care that you've seen in the interior and exterior. This fuel-injected 3.8-liter V6 has been the backbone of Buick during this era because it provides terrific power while remaining quiet and reliable. It shows all signs of being original, and it runs like a well-respected modern-classic should. The Reatta was meant to be Buick's Mercedes SL competitor, so on the road it feels confident with even a little hint of a sporty exhaust. The four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive, fully independent suspension, and four-wheel disc brakes makes this a great car for long hauls or fun weekends on the backroads.
The sale comes complete with the full owner's manual packet, warranty card, and service manuals. This is where rarity, desirability, and affordability all come together. Call today!!!
