The Buick Regal is one of those nameplates from the Seventies that you can still buy today, albeit not in North America, but China! Introduced in 1973, just as the Malaise Era was taking hold, the Regal has always been the premium midsize offering from this storied American automaker. Regals have been made in coupe, sedan and station wagon forms, and come with some hot variants too. North American Regal sales ceased in 2020, as Buick wanted to refocus its attention towards solely selling SUVS in North America. Today, we have a second-generation 1986 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo for sale from Downey, California. This was considered quite a hot car in its time, due to its punchy 3.8-liter turbo V6 and performance-tuned suspension. This 44,107-mile car also comes with an upgraded intercooler set-up for a bit more bite.
Wearing a nice coat of black paint, the squarish lines and straight edges of the second generation Regal are perfectly showcased by this 1986 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo. With its wedge-inspired shape, frameless doors with tinted glass and quad headlamps, it’s an Eighties icon to behold! The car also comes with 15-inch chrome plated Turbo-style alloy wheels with BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires. It’s truly a lovely sight to behold. The interior of this 1986 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo comes with gray and black cloth for the seats and can accommodate up to four adults. The cabin contains some interesting period features, most notably within the center console. Here, you’ll find an electronic touch-controlled climate control system with air conditioning. Then, there’s a radio with cassette tape player and a 5-band graphic equalizer, replete with physical sliders! This is hooked up to a Concert Sound II premium speaker system. Pop the trunk and there’s decent space that rivals some of today’s sedans, and comes with something that almost all of them omit – a spare wheel!
The factory figures for this 1986 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo are around 235 horsepower and 330 lb-ft of torque. Impressive figures, especially for the Eighties when anything over 200 horsepower was considered to be positively sporting. A 4-speed automatic transmission drives the rear wheels. You’ve also got sequential multi-port fuel injection, an upgraded intercooler set-up, performance tuned suspension and four-wheel disc brakes.

Buick’s midsize offering from 1973 to 2004, the Regal, entered the market just as the Malaise Era was getting started. So, instead of moaning about the stringent emissions and economy regulations, Buick made it a bit more upmarket than segment contenders. Then, the second generation came about in 1978, bringing with it fresh styling and a station wagon body style. Then, in 1982, the Grand National trim came out, to celebrate Buick winning the Manufacturers Cup in 1981 and 1982 for the NASCAR Winston Cup Grand National. Buick proudly advertised the car as “What wins on Sunday sells on Monday”. Up for sale today is a 1985 Buick Regal Grand National, but one that’s been extensively modified. The car pushes a four-figure horsepower digit at the wheels, and the current owner proudly tells us that it does a 5.2 in the 1/8th at 131mph. Want more figures? How about an 8.4 in the quarter mile, passing the line at a staggering 161mph? Furthermore, this build has just 4,500 miles on it, and comes with some creature comforts that make it a viable regular car when required.
If the '60s was known for its golden era of muscle cars, then the '80s must be known for its excess. The 1987 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo is the perfect example, with this luxury coupe grabbing the big power figures and offering performance that characterized Buick’s entry into the performance car market. Our featured car presents a rare opportunity to snag a low-mileage, one-owner example of a 1987 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo. The current owner reports that they bought the car new in 1986. Since then, the owner reports the car has covered an original mileage of just 23,000 miles. In addition to having a numbers-matching engine and transmission, this Buick Regal features all original books and manuals, which will be included in the sale.

Coming from the fifth generation of Riviera, this car boasts a Blue Firemist Metallic paint job, a 350ci V8, and a 3-speed automatic transmission.

The Buick LeSabre was a full-size model that was one of Buick’s longest-running nameplates. Introduced in 1959, it was made across eight generations until 2005. Today’s 1975 Buick LeSabre Convertible is a lovely red drop-top from Rudford, Michigan and has done just 47,268 miles so far. The car packs a 3-speed automatic transmission, chrome wire wheels and even the original window sticker! And let’s not forget its large 455ci V8 up front, a symbol of luxury itself back in the day.
One of the shortest-lived nameplates in Buick history has got to be the Invicta. In fact, this full-size offering packed in two generations within just five years. The first generation ran for 1959 and 1960, while the second was made from 1961 to 1963. Given the car’s short production run, it’s no surprise that the market isn’t awash with examples. Thankfully, we have this 53,667-mile 1959 Buick Invicta for sale today. With its 401ci V8 and automatic gearbox, this Miami-based classic is the perfect choice for someone seeking an unconventional automobile to cherish, and of course, drive.
The 1966 Ford Fairlane 500 Convertible is a standout example of classic American open-top motoring, elevated by the presence of a desirable GTA-spec 390ci V8. Showing 11,364 miles on the odometer, this Fairlane blends vintage styling with thoughtful upgrades that enhance both reliability and driving enjoyment. The GTA engine—originally associated with Ford’s performance-oriented Fairlane GT/A models—adds an extra layer of appeal, delivering strong torque and smooth power delivery. Finished in light blue metallic over a blue interior with a white convertible top, this car embodies the spirit of effortless cruising with a performance edge.
The 1973 Mercedes-Benz 450 SL represents the beginning of the iconic R107 generation, a platform that would go on to define luxury roadsters for nearly two decades. Showing 27,315 miles, this example stands out with its striking Signal Red finish and classic Bamboo interior—an unmistakably period-correct combination. Known for its durability, smooth V8 power, and timeless styling, the 450 SL quickly became a symbol of success and refined motoring in the 1970s. With both a removable hardtop and a soft top, it offers year-round usability, making it as practical as it is collectible.
The 1971 Chevrolet Nova Coupe represents one of the most iconic platforms of the American muscle car era—lightweight, aggressive, and endlessly customizable. Showing just 1,656 miles on the odometer (true mileage unknown), this example has been transformed into a well-executed restomod that blends classic styling with modern performance upgrades. Finished in a deep blue exterior over a black interior, this Nova carries the unmistakable presence of a street machine, enhanced by SS badging and a cowl induction hood. With upgraded brakes, interior enhancements, and a built small-block V8 under the hood, this car offers an engaging driving experience while maintaining its vintage appeal.
