1990 Buick Reatta Convertible Additional Info:
First, my normal and LONG standing eBay account is My3Buicks, you can check it for feedback. 1990 Buick Reatta, there were 2,457 Reatta convertibles built between the 90 & 91 model year. This example has 9,910 original miles on it. It has a clean Car-fax as well. As can be seen in the pictures it does have damage to the body. Back 10 years ago the original owners had a couple foreign foster children for a brief period and the kids decided that the Reatta would make a great toy to play on. I believe the older driver also had a hand in a couple of the dents. The original top was torn by the kids and a new high quality top with glass window with defrost was installed. Trunk is spotless and show ready. It also has newer tires and a new battery. I have had multiple Reatta's and this one drives the best of them all, I had a previous convertible with 8k miles but it sat on original tires so this one drives even better than it. I have put over 400 miles on it recently and it runs and drives like a nearly new Reatta should. Plenty of smooth power, excellent ride and nimble handling. There are no excuses need made for the way this car rides and drives, just excellent describes it best. I would not hesitate to climb in this car and drive it anywhere in the country I feel that comfortable driving it. Interior is in excellent condition and would take very little to make it show ready, there was some minor mouse damage to the sun visors but that would be the biggest flaws of the interior. A/C light comes on intermittently, original owner said he never had it serviced so after 26 years, it's time to be charged. Door ajar light is also on, and as any Reatta owner knows, this is a common and usual issue usually treated by unplugging the sensor, but that is for the new owner to decide, didn't want to hide the fact and easily could have. Radio and CD player work, there is rattling in the speakers which is also common issue on Reatta's as the speaker cones dry out. The only other issue worth noting is it needs a new trunk lock. Power windows, all functions of the power seats, cruise control, power mirrors, remote entry(one original fob and one aftermarket fob), power trunk button, gas door button, all gauges work as they should. Interiors lights come on when door handle is lifted as they should, key hole is illuminated. Headlights work smooth and properly with no bounce once up as some Reatta's suffer from. It has it's original Guide Halogens. Engine compartment is extremely nice and clean as can be seen in pictures. Underside is clean and totally original right down to exhaust. The car passed stringent Pennsylvania State Inspection and Emissions 2 weeks ago. There are only a few Reatta's convertible left with this low mileage. This one could easily be brought back and be a fantastic show car, or a fantastic driver with YEARS of enjoyment and it would still be low mileage. This one is hard to part with as I am enjoying it immensely.
