1986 Buick Regal T Type Turbo

Classic Car Addict is excited to present this one owner 1986 Buick Regal T-Type turbo for sale in our Mesa, AZ showroom. As Buicks go, the turbo cars like the Gran National and GNX get all the attention and rightfully so. While those cars grabbed headlines with their class setting performance, Buick relied on a series of more modest turbocharged Regals to prop up its luxury performance aspirations and pay the bills. This was the final year for the T-Type package in the Regal, and it really makes for quite a distinctive vehicle. It splits the difference between the aggressive Grand National and luxury-minded standard Regal. That's why you have the aggressive dark package on the front spoiler, grille, headlight bezels, and window trim. Even the sporty wheels are shared with the Grand National. And as distinctive as this car is, more people opted for either the regular Regal or the full GN package, which makes this genuine T-Type Turbo rather rare. Exterior black paint has been professionally resprayed and really shines beautifully. Inside is more of the unique balance of comfort and luxury. After all, not too many other Buicks came with a driver-oriented bucket seat interior w/center console. Yours even power adjusts to the ideal position. You get all the best in premium features, like beautiful gray leather seats, power windows, power locks, cruise control, upgraded Jensen CD/AM/FM radio, and it blows cold A/C. The moonroof is always a desirable feature for that sporty feel. You get a three-spoke sports steering wheel that's designed to give you an excellent view of the instrument cluster. What really makes this one so special is what's under the hood. Anyone who ordered a T-Type package automatically received a Regal equipped with a Turbocharged 3.8-liter V6. Along with the Turbocharged engine, the T-Type designation came complete with a special performance suspension package, special wheels, and T-Type emblems strategically placed throughout, among other things. This was Buick’s M.O. through 1986. But remember, the four-speed automatic transmission is not only there for quick shifting action but also for overdrive comfort. The T-Type represented the best of both worlds. Its sleeper looks spoke of elegance and style while still able to eat up the quarter mile in 13 seconds. Don’t sleep on this sleeper! We know this high level of originality is the kind of package that will never go out of style! This vehicle is sold on a clean Arizona title, owner’s manual, receipts, and the original build sheet.
