1990 Buick Reatta
it\'s a 2 seater, but is has a ton of trunk space, and there is room behind the seats for a third person to lay down in if need be.
the entire dashboard is electronic on a digital screen. it\'s really cool.
has a digitalized climate control system which works fine.
alpine stereo system, speakers work great.
66k miles (sorry, don\'t know this in km)
brand new b f goodrich tires
new paint job done by a proffesional less than a year ago
the car is a 2 and a half hour drive away from my house, but i\'ve already been down there and test drove it, engine runs perfectly, transmission seems great, brakes work fine, interior is in almost perfect condition, not a single scratch on the paint, not a single dent either.
this car would get over 20mpg from what i\'ve heard.
2 previous owners, the latest one was a part time mechanic and made a living fixing and selling tractors and also repairing small aircraft
problems:
power locks don\'t work, if you push the button they only come up half way, and they have to go all the way up to unlock, however, once the car starts moving at a good speed, they lock automatically, and that works fine. also, this isn\'t much of a problem anyway, since there are only two doors...
molding on the drivers side door fell off while we were test driving it, but it just looks like the clips holding it on had broken
there are two buttons for the horn, one is missing, the other does not work
if i ever break the windshield, replacement ones will be very difficult to find, and will also cost around $1000 (sorry, don\'t know other monetary units)
might have expensive insurance, but my parents are paying my insurance for the first year or two atleast.
price the owner is asking- $3950
i have $3500 cash, and this would be my first car. i\'d have to borrow some money from my parents to get and to fix the horn atleast, not worried about the lock, i can probably fix the molding myself with about $50 for parts.
i HAVE to get a car within the next month, i\'m heading off to college, but since i\'m only 16, my parents want me to come home every weekend... plus i\'ll still have soccer practices to go to... so i\'m definitely gonna need a car. i gave them a check for $250 as a down payment for them to hold it for me untill i decide whether or not i want it, if i don\'t want it i can just stop payment on the check. as of right now i\'m planning on getting it, and picking it up this friday night after my college orientation. anyway, on to the pictures:
(this is the picture that was in the ad. i took the others myself)

oh yeah, just a little more info on the car, a very limited number of these were made, and they were only made from 1988 to 1991, so eventually the value of these cars will greatly increase (although the convertible version is already worth far more, some people are beginning to sell them for more than their original market value, which is around $25,000)
so, what does everyone think?
