Did anybody buy a Turbo Buick or TTA and just stuff it away?

[JOHNDEEREGN]

Just curious who has Turbo Buicks or TTA's with no miles or even under 30,000 miles.

Post away fellas; especially pics

This is NO SLAM at anyone who has driven their car either!!?? Lets see who has the most miles as well!!

Shane has a low mileage one that I think he is the second owner of.. owned it since the early 90s I think.

My 1986 had 213,000 miles on it with no rebuild and it was driven hard for years. It looked and felt like it at the end too, I 'll try and find my old pics and scan them.

Ok, my 154k doesn't even come close. I'll be very happy if it makes it to 200k without launching a piston through the side of the block

SilverFox has an amazing silver T with less than 50k on it and you can tell, very nice!

I just ran into a guy in NJ with a TTA he bought new. It's got 30 miles on it. He owns a construction company bought it new and it's been parked in his 9 car climate controlled garage since it came from the Pontiac dealer right down the street from his house. I asked him if he goes on the boards and said he's never been on here. Just thought it was a cool car bought it and parked it. I think he said he puts 2 or 3 miles on it a year and starts it up and lets it run from time to time. Looked like it just rolled out of the show room. It's amazing how many low mile cars are floating around out there with owners that never been on any of these boards.

Bought my GN with 26k on the clock. Nearing 40k now.

 

[F8L WS6]

Bought my TTA with 19k on the clock 4 years ago. It now has I think close to 21k on it. It rarely sees road time since NJ traffic is HORRIBLE and it was hard enough to find the one I got now for the price I got it at. I almost get into enough accidents with these idiots in my daily driver.

I think a friend of mine knows that guy from NJ or at least another guy with one like that in NJ. Said he knows it has under 100 miles on it and it just sits in a garage.

[TR Custom Parts]

Bought mine in 1995 with less than 5000 miles on it. Was slightly modded with billet wheels, lowered, a K&N filter and a Currie Ford 9" rear, don't ask me why he did that??

Just turned 28,000 this fall and is slightly more modified than when I bought it.

 

[Little6pack]

Mine is stuffed away alright the power monster brakes gone bad.

 

[seeyabye]

I saw a TTA outside of Charlotte with about 200 miles on it. They said it had never had a license plate on it.

Bought my TTA with 5k miles on it, and drove it 1,300 miles home, guy thought I was crazy to drive it that far with the original tires on it. Its got about 16k on it now 7 years later.
Bought the GN in '91 with 10k miles, it has 54k miles on it now.
Similar story with the '79, bought it with 23k miles..or maybe it was 22k..and drove it home from Maryland, that guy was really freakin..he asked where my trailer was, I said I was driving it back to Texas There were 3 voice msgs when I got home from the guy wondering if I had made it back yet....and no John, its not for sale yet
