Description:
1990 Buick Reatta Convertible The Buick Reatta was originally penned as a two seat sports car forBuick. After much contemplation and focus on the brand's buyers, itwas decided to come out with an older luxury minded buyer's car,with front wheel drive, a 2 door coupe, comfortable interior andsoft ride. Today the Reatta stands out for its "futuristic" stylingand driver interface. It was one of the least expensive handmademodern cars produced at the Lansing Craft Center, with each carincluding a "craftsman's log" of its builders. For consignment, a 1990 Buick Reatta convertible owned by ourconsignor for 15 years. Over four years, Buick produced just 21,751Reattas. That's about the same amount of Grand National produced in1987 and as those are considered uncommon, the Reatta is borderingon rare. Which one have you seen in the wild most recently? ExteriorBathed in its original Bright Red paint and accented by a goldpinstripe, the uniquely shaped Reatta is instantly recognizablewith hidden headlights and flush wraparound tail lights that spanthe entire width of the car with a reflective band. A newer tancanvas convertible tops this 2 seater and has a glass window withdefrost feature. Side moldings just below the belt line with achrome thin topper both race around this rounded car to create someinterest on the red. 15-inch aluminum wheels are on all fourcorners showing some delamination and wearing gold striped tireswith a mid 2022 manufacture date. On this car, the exhaust existsas twin oval chrome tips. Imperfections include various scratchesand some of them are touched up, a hole in the hood where perhapsan ornament was once added, multiple scuffs on the chin, a scuff onthe right front corner bumper, and the clear lens of the rear lightbar is scratched and cracked but not broken through. InteriorHandsome door panels covered in tan with black panels and multiplecontrols on hand. These show some wear with chipping paint, andduct tape covering a switch. The passenger side fares better andhints of the luxury this car was to bestow. Tan leather bucketshave complex patterns and stitching, and the driver's side showssignificant wear with creases and a small tear and again, thepassenger side is in better condition. Compartment doors behind theseats are covered in low plush carpet which continues on thefootwell floors in decent albeit slightly soiled condition,especially where the center console meets the sidewall. Oursteering wheel has an aftermarket cover and fronts a flat dashpanel that sports nifty vacuum fluorescent gauge displays and ablue LCD mileage readout. The center stack is canted slightlytowards the driver and contains the A/C controls and a new AM/FM/CDunit. Below is the shifter in the center console over a plasticpanel in good condition. A shout out to the trunk, which is alsowell preserved and lined with cloth gray panels. DrivetrainDriver quality conditions prevail under the hood where we find the3.8 liter V6 which is horizontally opposed, and fed fuel with fuelinjection. A 4T60 4-speed automatic transmission is on board andkeeps power at the front wheels and 2.97 gearing. Power disc brakesare equipped on the front and rear and ABS. UndercarriageThis car appears to have had an oil undercoating treatment and as aresult, everything is glossy black and there's very little surfacerust on flat surfaces or major components. There is a long drop ofoil on the pan coming from the drain plug unrelated to the surfacetreatment. The single exhaust snakes its way to the back where itmeets a stock style muffler then exits as two tips. Coil springsuspension is up front while the independent suspension at the backis equipped with a transflex leaf. Drive-AbilityA quick starter, and a smooth ride, good handling and bias freepanic braking. There are some rattles normally associated with highmileage cars of the era, but overall a decent ride and adequatepower from the venerable V6. While the digital dash is working asit should, we note the power lock are finicky, the "Service AC"light is on and the AC doesn't blow cold, the "Antilock" light ison, and the passenger's power seat tilt functions are not working.While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions wereworking at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee thesefunctions will be working at the time of your purchase. Here are two things we know. Reattas are on the uptick forcollectability. Their oddness was once a liability but is nowclearly seen as an asset. It also doesn't hurt that they are primeRadwood material, but are welcome and seen at all car shows now.The second thing that among consistent sellers at Classic AutoMall, Reattas make the list. They always find a new owner. Here'sone that can use a little cosmetic TLC but is certainly drivableand show worthy as it sits. 1G4EC33C9LB905376 1-USAG-General Motors4-BuickEC-Reatta3-2 Door Convertible3-Manual Belts, Drivers AirbagC-3.8L V69-Check DigitL-1990B-Lansing, MI Assy Plant905376-Sequential Unit Number Classic Auto Mall is home to more than 1,000 classic andcollectible vehicles for sale via consignment in a climatecontrolled 336,000-square foot showroom (that's more than 8acres!).
