Y-JobFan Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 looks like a nice car but the color is awful, thankfully it has a dark top for some contrast. About as bad as 72 Sierra Tan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mp65riv Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 A very 1970s color combination - I remember seeing this combo on a lot of new cars during that era. Overall a nice car! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B Jake Moran Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I love Casino Beige and Lamar knows it. Y Job my 1990 Reatta conv was Driftwood. I like Casino Beige for the same reason I l Iike those Art Deco tans on 30s Buicks. As Lamar noted chrome pops against this color. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Phillips Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 If that was a Texas car, the big dash pad would have 10 or 15 cracks and be warped beyond repair! Very nice car. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be why Driftwood is the least desirable color on Reatta’s because it’s such a great color ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lancemb Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 I think the color is great. I love the dulled color pallette on older cars. Don't tell Big Blue! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avgwarhawk Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Nice Buick. The color is beautiful and representative of the 70's. Landau top. It has the 455. But as we know, it is neutered for emissions. But, still a good solid engine. Great highway car all day. Man, I need a bigger garage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John_S_in_Penna Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Thank you for keeping the listing updated. Often, people listing their OWN cars don't even do that! It is interesting to track the price, and knowing that a car is sold gives some indication of the car's value in the market. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
