This beautiful Reatta has 62,800 miles and I am the third owner, purchasing it in 2010.

The first two owners lived in the Tampa Bay, FL area. It was sold new by Century Buick and then as a trade-in was resold by them. It spent its entire life in the Tampa area until I bought it and drove it non stop to eastern North Carolina. Crown Motors in St. Petersburg and the second owner represented the car as "all original". I can find nothing to dispute that claim. This is my second Reatta. At purchase it showed 59,475 miles and I drove it approx. 850 miles to my home. In the last 3+ years I have put on less than 3,000 miles. It has always been garaged and also under a cover during my ownership.

Although a beautiful car, it is not concours. There are two small cracks in the flat part of the upper dash panel and the tonneau latch is broken. Other than that, the Reatta is close to flawless. The wheels do have a little curb rash, but not bad. Other than the cracks, the interior and the top are in excellent condition. All electronics are in working condition and it is equipped with the optional CD player. It also has original manual and pen. It has four new Goodyear Eagle GT-4 tires, fresh NC inspection. I had the left "door ajar" switch replaced last month. I have also replaced the headlight roller bearings. It has a new battery, A/C compressor clutch, and low pressure switch.

I have most if not all receipts since 1992.

The Reatta is being sold because I do not drive it as intended.

Will assist in shipping.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.

2015 Buick Verano offered with six-speed manual after all

Mon, 09 Jun 2014

Good news, boys and girls (well, at least those of you who still like shifting for yourselves). Buick got in touch with us to correct some information that it had mistakenly announced; namely, that the 2015 Verano will lose its optional six-speed manual transmission. Apparently, that announcement was incorrect, and the compact sedan will indeed continue to offer a manual option for 2015, despite what we're certain is a low take rate. Additionally, the Desert Dusk Metallic paint that was said to come as part of an Appearance Package is no longer part of the deal. With that out of the way, we now return you to your regularly scheduled automotive-obsessive broadcast...

Buick Encore takes a hit of Mokka to tackle Dakar

Wed, 03 Sep 2014

There are many vehicles we'd consider taking racing. Even on a cross-country rally as punishing as the Dakar. But a Buick Encore? That's not one that would enter our motorsports-based consciousness. Yet it's basically what General Motors is entering in the South American rally raid this year, and you're looking at it.
Unveiled at the Moscow Motor Show, this rally machine is based on (or at least billed as) an Opel Mokka - the name that GM's European brand applies to the vehicle Americans know as the Encore, Buick's subcompact crossover. Only it's obviously been extensively modified. It's got a ten-inch raised suspension, a 137-gallon fuel tank, carbon-fiber bodywork and... hold on, we're sure we're missing something here. Oh, right: a 6.2-liter V8 kicking out 340 horsepower and 487 pound-feet of torque to all four wheels through a six-speed sequential gearbox.
In other words, this is not the same Encore (or Mokka) you can pick up at your local Buick, Opel or Vauxhall dealership. It's not even close. It's not even recognizable as such, really. It was unveiled alongside a more sedate Opel Mokka Moscow Edition and a slew of other local debuts for the Opel brand that you can read more about in the (translated and original) Russian press release below.
