I was referred to this forum by a friend in hopes of selling my turbo buick.

Its burgundy with red interior and bench seat/column shift.

Last October I had a rebuilt motor with a 3 yr warranty put in. The odometer reads 51k (not sure if it flipped due to 5 digits) but the new motor has about 600 miles on it. I'm pretty sure I can get a receipt from the shop I had the work done for warranty purposes.

The interior is actually in pretty good condition. The dash does have gauges and tach installed into it and the front seat has two small tears and is faded.

It has aftermarket exhaust, weld rims, and brand new tires. I also installed some 6x9s in the back with an amp and a bluetooth receiver up front. I did disconnect the door speakers since they farted out when cranked up and haven't gotten around to putting the covers back on.

The guy I bought this from knew how to work on cars and kept it in good shape, no rust underneath either. I believe he told me he was the 3rd owner and drove it up from Indiana.

Around the rear wheel wells you can see a couple small rust bubbles under the paint and some paint fading on the top of the roof. The biggest cosmetic flaw is the plastic front clip underneath the driver side headlight broke apart and same thing underneath the license plate.

Last thing, the column needs to be tightened up.

If you have a harley davidson Iron 883 I'll take a straight trade.

I'm asking $7500.

Here is my cl post on it

Nice car, Just as an FYI the craigslist ad title states only 1,547 made, that is actually a different vehicle. I know it's kinda misleading but the 1,547 production number is actually for a WE4 coded vehicle. Looks identical in exterior as a grand national minus the rear spoiler and just grey interior. Those are the one's that Buick only produced 1,547 of.

Your car there is what is known as a Turbo Regal, which your option code (trunk sticker) should state Y56 and LC2 for turbo package. Has all the cool stuff like sport suspension FE3 and 8.5 Rear code G87. I do see your car has Blackout trim package which is code WO2. It's a nice car just thought i would give you some insight before you tell a Buick guy only 1547 of these were made. ;)
 
Hey dude I appreciate that. Im about to change that up right now. In your honest opinion do you think its a fair price still? I cant tell if its 51000 or 151000 since it only shows 5 numbers. Im just assuming.

That is such a loaded and fair question. Me, no, I think the price is too high for the condition it is in and the mileage. If you truly want/need that number, then I would suggest getting new bumper fillers and cleaning up the car really nice. I wouldn't pay near that, but if you really need to sell it, shoot me a message and I may consider it.
 
Who did the motor rebuild on the car and do you have any close up pictures of the door hem area and any underbody shots? Thx

The motor is from LKQ and it was installed by Rays Towing. Weve been using them for our cars at the carlot I work at for years.

Bummer. Not getting any bites. I think its still too cold out for people to buy summer toys.
 
Don't have Harley but would trade my CBR 600RR that I have posted in the vehicles for sale section. It is Candy Tahitian blue and has low miles. It's probably about page 8 of the section. PM if interested.
