1988 Buick Regal Custom 2.8L
Summary:
A great first car for a student
Faults:
I had to replace my battery twice because the previous owner installed an aftermarket security system that was hidden behind the dashboard. Although it was mostly removed, an LED was still there to drain the battery continuously.
My alternator had to be replaced.
I just had my catalytic converter replaced.
My front passenger seat is stuck in the reclined position.
Spark plugs were spaced improperly.
Trunk refuses to open occasionally.
General Comments:
It has very quick acceleration.
Heater and air conditioning work great.
Driver's side seatbelt is uncomfortable around the neck area.
The fake wood trim around the dash board pops out easily.
Original stereo and clock no longer works.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know

I have to agree with the review. I just purchased a 1988 Regal Limited and it is awesome. With only 54,000 miles it handles like a dream. Runs smooth and the V6 is powerful enough to dust the traffic. Leather interior, AM/FM cassette, premium sound, power seats, power windows, power everything, nice wheels, chrome rocker panels, comfort ride, great gas mileage, really nice digital dash display. I love it and will be keeping this car for a long long time. I give this car a ten out of ten on everything.
