What you are looking at is an all original 1989 Buick Reatta. The car truly is an all original classic, this can be seen from the original Buick floor mats to the owners manual that is still in the plastic wrapping from GM. The owners manual also has a Buick Reatta Pen included, which I thought was pretty neat. I purchased this car from the original owner last summer, he owned the car since 1989, and took care of the car as someone who paid full retail to drive it off the showroom floor. The car was regularly maintained and all records were kept. (See last photo, there is a stack of the records). Clearly, this car was meticulously cared for and loved. One of the last things he had done to the car was he upgraded the entire suspension, this was a costly upgrade for him to make. With that said, it really makes the car drive and feel like your driving a brand new car. Having driven previous Reatta's, I can tell you that this makes a big difference. In my time the car has needed nothing, all I have done is changed the battery as a preventative measure. The car has the all original red paint, with no sun fading, scratches, or rust. For an all original car form 1989 the paint still looks great. All in all, the exterior I would rate a 9.5, the pictures speak for themselves. The interior is tan and is also in really good overall condition. The drivers seat has very minor fading on the left side, but that is all. The other seat is perfect and the drivers one is pretty close to it. The steering wheel has wear, but it is very minimal, it is just leather fading from being from 1989. Like I said earlier, it has the original floor mats. The head liner is slightly droopy, you can see what I am talking about in the pictures. The rest of the inside is perfect, including under the windshield and on the door frames. The computer system is fully functional and the touch screen works great. Even the cassette player is fully functional! The car has the sunroof option, although, it is not functioning at this time. Also, there is a dime sized dent on the sun roof. There are only two other minor problems with the car. First, the headlights need to be put up manually, this is really simple to do. The second is that the AC needs to be recharged. When you turn the AC on you can here the fans blowing the air and feel the air blowing at you but there is no freon, it simply needs a refill. The headlight kit's are about $50 on Ebay. Having AC hasn't bothered me as I like to save gas and cruise with the windows open, I have the AC refills for the next owner to recharge as you wish.
