Bushwack Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 Something must be wrong with it . For $4,000, if someone wanted a vert (even if this needs $2,000 of work), it seems to be a great catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney Eaton Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 notice it has a "rebuilt" title Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bushwack Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 Good catch Barney. I retract my last post and say buy it for as little as possible and drive it until it can be driven no more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Corvanti Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 i've only purchased one vehicle with a "salvage" title - a '95 Mustang GT convertible in 2001 - at a ridiculously low price. a Carfax (rear end damage) and a very thorough inspection - got me a very nice car.if one plans to have a "keeper", it wouldn't hurt to take a look.

ol' yeller Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 I may know about this car. I think it belonged to a friend of mine in the Buick club several years ago. I'll check with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVES89 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 It's now on ebay... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_Baby Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I almost pulled the trigger on it yesterday. If I can get reasonable price from a shipping company today I still may. For the money, I'd be willing to roll the dice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ol' yeller Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Sold on Ebay for $3,550. Probably the right price with the branded title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest my3buicks Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Yes agreed, but for someone that just wanted a great looking convertible to run and drive, it was a bargain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_Baby Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Black_BabyI would think being in Texas you are in a high Reatta registration state and since it's in the south, I would hazard to guess your state and surrounding area has quite a few Reatta convertibles. Maybe not right now, but I have seen quite a few. Brazoria County? I used to live in Houston, TX. That was 1990-1994. I remember stopping into a Buick dealer on Interstate 10 and oogling over a showroom Reatta, my 1st exposure to the Reatta. No way I could afford it. I do remember that it sat and sat and they eventually slashed the pricing to give it away. I never understood that. Houston has a lot of money, and a lot of cougars. I figured it would be the perfect car for a cougar, or a salt and pepper semi-retired golfer with a sedan in the garage. Anyway, I would hesitate to buy that car in Washington because instead of paying, say $3500, you are in fact paying $4700 or whatever transport is and $4700 should buy a whole lot of Texas Reatta convertible.I concur on the price to buy and ship. I "shopped" for a week on getting the shipping below 1k. Had I been able to get that done, I wouldn't have thought too much about being into the car for less than 4500. There was a deal in place contingent on finding reasonable shipping. I had a car shipped from Indiana when gas prices were at their highest and paid considerablely less than the 1200.00 I was getting quoted for this time with fuel prices at an all time low.You don't see to many Reatta's running around here for whatever reason. At times you have to take what you can find and other times you can wait 'til you find what you want. There are a couple white 'verts out on the web in Texas, but white (or red for that matter) isn't my color. I can live with black or blue. I'm in no hurry to buy my second Reatta, time is on my side. I currently have a CJ 7 under resto for my daughter. It just got back from the paint shop so I'm about ready to get bloody knuckles again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cargirl Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 What Website are the white verts listed at in Texas, I checked Craigslist with no success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_Baby Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 As would be typical, CL doesn't show 'em now. One was listed at a Houston car dealership and was advertised as select 60 at around 16k. The other had a Nederland location and was around 5k. A Beaumont CL search or there is another site called southeast texas dot com may produce that one. If the more expensive one shows again I'll post it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_Baby Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 409 543 9854 car is located in Port Neches. Use southeasttexas.com . I couldn't make link post. Click on the used cars tab, then type in buick in the search field. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
