Ronnie Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Park that thing on Cumberland Avenue in front of the University of Tennessee in Knoxville and it would sell in less than an hour. Go Vols!!BTW, if you thought you were watching a football game between Tennessee and Florida last week on TV it was actually a training video on how <span style="color: #FF0000">NOT</span> to play football.

Guest C.F.Massie Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Just two words Roger, Butt Ugly!!!!! Disgusting that the seller touts it as a rare car rather then it being unique in the modification sense (blecht). Not my taste but who am I to judge.

KDirk Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 WhiskeyTango FoxtrotWho does this to a Reatta? I expect this kind of stuff on an old Chevy Caprice Brougham or a Caddy Fleetwood Brougham. Maybe even a Olds Cutlass, but this is disgraceful. The real kicker is how much all that had to cost, on a car that isn't know for great resale value to begin with. The two-tone interior might be a nice touch with an accent color other than orange.They should have changed the front turn/parking lamps to blue (which, consulting my color wheel, is the complement of orange). And maybe fabricated a custom all clear euro tail lamp lens with a black out kit. Heck, put the lambo doors on and neon underlighting. Don't forget the Autozone stick on Cadillac wreaths around the door lock cylinders and the self adhesive port holes on the front fenders. Gotta have the 12" tall vinyl lettering on the rear window that says "Reatta" too. That's the ticket. Heck, this "upgrade" was only half done. Methinks the seller will not get their investment back out of this car, if they even sell it. KDirk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonlabree Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Sounds pretty sanctimonious to me. Some people have different tastes than all of the purist’s on this forum.I wouldn't be so quick to throw stones at someone else’s ideas. How would you like it if someone typed two full paragraphs knocking your design or ideas? Boy,I would hate to see what you would have to say about my Reatta.I am not saying that I like his design, but I'm not going to knock it. It's his, not mine. If he can't sell it he will get the message.Maybe if the forum was not so judgmental, more people would share their ideas.I really hate to see this kind of post.

DAVES89 Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Spoken well Jon. I just like the car for the styling,the taillight,and the 88/89 year specific features. The 90/91's are too mainstream. I think the styling is timeless, but the wheels are dated. The only colors I like are the red/tan, polo green/tan, black/tan, or maui blue/black.The polo green and maui blue do not come in the 88/89 years so I probably won't own one. I also don't like verts either. I changed the wheels[chrome spoke], removed the cassette deck[added GPS] and put in the Riv. wood trim. And like Ronnie said. if it was in Tennessee it would sell. Here in Wisconsin we have people building shrines to the Packers and Badgers, so anything green/gold or red/white will sell. I would welcome hearing about aftermarket mods that people have done to their cars. I would like new ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mc_Reatta Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 He needs to list it in the Knoxville, TN edition of Craig's List. Would probably start a bidding war at the frat houses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Reatta1 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Say what you will about that car, but I'm sorry I can't quite agree with all of it. The interior ain't all that bad but, those wheels, they just look horrid on that car!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
