So had a phone call from a complete stranger about my 86 ttype seems someone on here gave him my #. So he asks me how much for complete car, i told him my price he told me "oooohh too much, if i was in the market for a turbo regal i would only buy an 87". So im like ok, good for you. He then tells me the 86 arent worth as much because the engine is different 
. He says he worked for Buick for 38 years and he was the person who sold Burt Reynolds his GNX . He claims he has three Turbo buicks . So im laughing at this point and i also tell him i have 3 buicks as well in my yard, and i have owned a few more in the past. So i pleasantly tell him "with respect" you might be mistaken 1 year, the 85 and prior years have the different setup which doesnt include an intercooler thus the nickname 'hotair'. He then gets serious and tells me i have no idea what im talking about, all i have to do is look under the hood and under the car to see the difference. So i asked him to explain it to me since he worked for Buick for so many years maybe you can enlighten me. He bluntly said the "configuration is different" ohh..... 
ok, just thought it was a tad bit funny... Just as an fyi he still thinks im wrong, and he's right and he actually was so positive of himself he told me to look online and google it. If you guys have any funny calls about people who are interested in your item and think they are right and you are wrong pls feel free to post.. Oh btw, he then asks me so is your 86 ttype a limited .. Didnt want to get into that conversation, since 86 theyre were no Turbo limiteds made only in 87. But he obviously know's what he's talking about so i just said i'll email you some pictures.

The ignorance of the general public on cars much less our cars is astounding to say the least but it's pretty normal even among "car guys".
so i guess he felt he was schooling me or something or i didnt know enough to be on his level. He got kinda pissed when i told him listen i dont know what division of Buick hired you but you have obviously been taught incorrect information. Then he rampaged about the 38 years, and Burt Reynolds gnx deal..
