No brakes with no solution? Price drops way down. It seems like a nice enough car, maybe Marck at East Coast Reatta might take it off your hands if you don't want to deal with the brakes and CRT.

I believe a fully functioning 89 coupe in nice condition and lower miles has a market value of $6-7,000. With the problems described you’re lucky to get $3,000. I’ve already spent more on my Reatta than it’s worth, so I’m just going to enjoy driving it in between the inevitable electrical problems. Dare I say it, buying a Reatta as an investment is risky business.

Hi Bob, You should really start your own post so we can do a better job for you. The CRT not lighting up used is about $300.00. The headlight motor kit [lift arms] is about $50.00]. If you need the complete Teves unit I would guess $600.00 or more. The pump and motor would be about $200.00. Maybe post a couple of pictures of the car inside and out and we can all take a look at it.

Earlier this year I purchased my 91 Hardtop with 75,000 miles for $5,500. At the end of May I purchased my 91 Maui Blue convertible with 12,750 miles for $15,000. Both had been on the market for some time, the original asking price for the hardtop was around $9,000, he had lowered the price. The original asking price for the convertible was $20,000. In both cases I asked the seller what his bottom line was, and that is what I paid for them. Typically I do not try and talk people down. They know what they want, and I know what I am willing to pay. If their price is higher than I want to pay I pass on the deal. Don't want to insult someone with a lowball offer. When I deal on eBay it is a different issue, they have make an offer, I make a lowball offer then they usually come back with a price we agree on.
