Hello,
Newbie from Virginia. I just purchased a 89 TTA yesterday and I am waiting on delivery. I didn’t see a welcome wagon forum, so I hope this is the right forum to say hi.

Sounds about right. What drew you to a TTA?

Luck. I didn’t even know they exsisted. I was looking for a 64 Sport Fury or a 67 Charger and came across it. After some research I had to have it. Always was partial to turbo Buicks.

I fell in love when I read the Car and Driver article and the 4.6 second 0-60 time. At the time, that was quicker than everything else, Corvette, Porsche, Ferrari, everything. It was the first new car I ever bought, and I still have it. I have a faster car now (Challenger Hellcat) but I still love that turbo boost rush.

Congratulations on the purchase Dan!

Hi Dan... I bought mine new and almost 37 years later it's clean and drives like new with overr 100k miles on the slightly modified 3.8... Nice car to own and show but even better to drive it. Enjoy!
