Dealer Comments

**Some cars are transportation. Others are time capsules.**

This 1989 Buick Reatta is one of those rare vehicles that immediately takes people back to a completely different era of American automotive design. With just over 45,000 miles, clean CARFAX accident history, long-term California history, and recent Buss Ford service, this Reatta has the kind of story that makes it stand out.

**Why this one stands out:**

* 1989 Buick Reatta coupe
* 3.8L V6
* 4-speed automatic transmission
* Front-wheel drive
* Red exterior
* Just over 45,000 miles
* No accidents reported to CARFAX
* No damage reported to CARFAX
* No title brands reported
* No odometer rollback indicated
* Long-term California history
* 6 service history records
* Recent Buss Ford service and inspection
* Rare personal luxury coupe from Buicks specialty era

The Reatta was not a normal Buick. It was a limited-production personal luxury coupe built with a different mindset than the average late-1980s car. It had unique styling, a more exclusive feel, and the kind of futuristic personality that makes it interesting decades later.

Finished in red, this Reatta still looks unlike most cars on the road today. The low-slung coupe shape, hidden headlights, wraparound interior design, and unmistakable late-80s character give it the kind of presence modern vehicles simply do not have anymore.

Power comes from Buicks well-known 3.8L V6 paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission. It is a smooth, comfortable setup that fits the Reattas personality well. This is not a sports car trying to be a luxury car. It is a true personal luxury coupe from an era when automakers still built unusual vehicles because they wanted to make something different.

The CARFAX history supports the value, showing no accidents or damage reported, no title brands reported, no odometer rollback indicated, and a long history of California emissions records. The mileage history also remains consistent over time, which helps support the low-mile story.

Recent Buss Ford preparation is also noted, including pre-delivery inspection, brake check, fluid check, oil and filter change, drive belt replacement, serpentine belt replacement, sway bar link replacement, tire condition check, and tire rotation.

That is part of the charm here. This is not a new car and it should not be shopped like one. It is an honest surviving Reatta with low miles, clean history, recent service, and the kind of nostalgia that makes people stop and ask about it.

Call or text Buss Ford and ask for a quick walkaround and startup video before you drive in. On this Reatta, the paint, interior, hidden headlights, startup, underbody, tires, and overall condition are what buyers usually want to see first.

Buss Ford has been family-owned since 1928, and this vehicle is backed by our 5-Day Best Price Guarantee and 5-Day Money Back Guarantee.

If you have been looking for something nostalgic, uncommon, and genuinely fun to own without spending exotic-car money, this Buick Reatta is exactly the kind of car that makes people smile the moment they recognize what it is.
