Guest A_3-D_Event Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 I'm so excited to announce that I purchased a 1990 Buick Reatta today. It's in pretty good shape. Has 130K on it and the engine purrs like a kitten. Took it for a spin and it was fun. The dash gauges work on & off but I already knew that before driving it. I found a place on-line to fix that problem. Everything works and the interior is burgundy & in perfect condition. The car has been garaged and well taken care of.Here are some pics if you want to see her... Reatta I'm going to take it to the body shop next week and talk to my paint guy to see if he can do some touch-ups. It doesn't need much and for $2800 its a bargin.What do ya think of her?Christa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 That is a beautiful car. White blends good with the snow too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest A_3-D_Event Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Thanks everyone.Yeah, like that snow in the pic? I'm starting to wonder where I live. The snow is about 2 ft. on the flat and the roads are full of pot holes big/deep enough to flatten tires.Currently our weather has switched from 10* to now 32* and raining. UCK!This is hampering my cruise I want to go on with the car to the body shop.I really enjoy reading all the useful info on Reatta's here and know this forum will come in handy.Hope to get to know you all better. See ya around the forum. Christa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeP Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Hey Christa, welcome to the forum! That is the same color combo as mine. I am not crazy about the interior color but the quality of the car more than makes up for it. I am not going to lie but when I see a beautiful red Reatta my mouth waters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dan Cook Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 The reason for the black moulding on these cars is so you can find them in the snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest A_3-D_Event Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 68vwdubb, I called on the car at Fox but it was gone before I could get there! It was Red w/tan int. with 107K, in about the same shape. I'm fond of white cars and I have a lead foot and when I did have a red sporty I got tickets! I hope I have better luck driving this white car then the last white one as I hit more deer with it than any car I've owned. Then again I've thinned out the herd in West MI so it should be a better.
