SignUp Now!FYI, it's a Turbo T...not a T-Type.
Nice car.
Buick phased out the "T-Type" moniker/option package in 1986 for the 1987 "Turbo T" package which changed the logo and option packages. Basically Buick loosened up what type of Regal could be ordered with the LC2 engine. The T-Type was a sport package that included black out trim, T-Type emblems on the fenders, grille and horn button. In 1987 Buick allowed buyers the option of keeping the chrome, choosing a "Limited" and/or having them ordered with the WO2 (black out) trim levels. T-Types did not have this flexibility hence Buick's choice to change the name for 1987. If you ever see a 1987 Turbo Buick it must either be a GN or Turbo T and never a T-Type.What is the difference between a T-Type and a Turbo T?
