After experiencing a complete absence of business etiquette and decorum on the part of ( aforementioned ) TurboBuick member " 2FILIP", one can only hope this member decides to change his " modus operandi" , and learn from a class act like member TT/A1233 !

Hmm, now about to go over 17,000 views ! Wonder what the record is ? LOL

ALBERTAN : I know your expressed preference was for the car to remain in Canada, but the fact and truth is, it couldn't have gone to a better person ! Would be remiss if mention wasn't made that local TurboBuick member, " 2FILIP" had a perfect opportunity to own the car when he claimed he...

FWIW, the " new" owner reports that he " loves the car" and feels the asking price was justified. Great to hear such comments.

For those guys who are still inquiring about the car because it seems they've only read the last posted reply on page 5 and nothing prior. THE CAR SOLD ON MARCH 2 FOR THE POSTED ASKING PRICE.

Sorry for the multiple duplicate replies above. This was truly the computer screwing up and was by no means intentional ! BTW, thanks to everyone who showed a sincere interest in the car.

A pleasure meeting and doing business with you Dean. Pleased to know the car is in good hands. Thanks for being an honorable guy and giving me my posted asking price. ENJOY !!

Thanks, " horndog" - good point ! In retrospect, perhaps should have indicated from the outset that the car isn't being sold due to financial necessity .

PLEASE gentlemen, enough already, ( whew ), no more "low ball " offer inquiries !

FWIW, here are a couple of other quotes from Richard Lasseter's (President of Buick GS Club of America) letter of appraisal ( at 37,600 miles) in addition to his previously mentioned quote from that letter stating, "THERE ARE EASILY $18,000 WORTH OF LABOR AND PARTS " . " THE OVERALL CONDITION...

Appreciate for your comments and observations. While you may certainly be correct about the TR market, the fact remains that along with the posted price, it also has the words, " OR BEST OFFER " attached. BTW & FWIW, while there may be an 86 TR in AL in the same price range (that you drool...

Been receiving inquiries as to, "what doesn't work" on the car. It would seem some people feel that after 26 years that some items on these cars perhaps don't work anymore. For the record: EVERYTHING ON THE CAR IS FULLY FUNCTIONAL AND OPERATIONAL.

Have had inquiries regarding the car's performance. To clarify, the car was never taken to the track to see what its 1/4 mile performance numbers would be. However, it was dynoed and as I recall it made right around 470 RWHP ( with 100 octane unleaded fuel, 20-21 lbs. of boost, open...

Thanks, I'd like to think so. Out on the road I have to say only the true ( Buick ) " shepherds " know what it is. Always humorous to hear people pull along side, usually at a stoplight, and ask, " WTF is that !" With its color combo, it definitely flies under the radar.
