1991 Buick Reatta

I purchased my Red 1991 Buick Reatta coupe in January of 2018 with 109,000 miles on it. Its paint is original and the Saddle colored interior is still in better than expected condition. My car now has 117,000 miles on it and is a pleasure to own and drive! Having the "bullet-proof 3800 engine" and being built on the Buick Riviera frame (only 9 inches shorter) it rides with the comfort of my '89 Riviera and gets 27 mpg on the hwy, while handling like a sports car. The maintenance cost has been low and the mechanical parts are relatively inexpensive. Its unique styling always has me answering the question " what is is and who made it"! I don't know what other inexpensive car gives you exclusivity, style, roominess, comfort, quality and low cost maintenance in a single vehicle like the Buick Reatta does. If you can find a '91, it's worth considering owning one'

Buick Reatta 89 Coupe

Everything worked when I got the car, and there have been only minor glitches. Rides very quietly but handles well. Sound quality of upscale cassette deck and radio w touch screen great. Touch controls are simple and fun to operate. Gas mileage quickly improved after first month of real driving, to where 28 highway, 19 city is common, and on 87 octane. GM 3800 engine more than adequate on light car. Build quality and paint are fantastic as it was practically a hand made car. About the only thing I fault on this car is that the brakes seem a little weak, and they have been inspected bled etc.

I have always been very pleased with the car, why else would I have kept it for 16 years! It was always fun to drive, both in the city and on the open road.

Well built, dependable cruiser. Great driver, not a speedster. Antiquated ABS system is only flaw.
