The Allante wanted to be the Mercedes 560SL. It's not.
I swear they only made two colors that got shipped to where I lived--red with saddle interior, and that medium-blue, ick.
andre, in '65, weren't the Custom 880 and Polara just two different trim levels of the same car? The Monaco was their "Grand Prix" kind of car I think that year--just a hardtop coupe with buckets and console.

I never liked the Reatta hardtop. The styling seemed awkward, especially how the roof/C-pillar mated with the lower body. When they came out with the convertible Reatta a while later I liked that much more and IMO that was the only version they ever should have made. But overall I agree the car didn't make much sense for Buick.

Love the "Limited edition" description of the Monaco...apparently limited to how many people bought them, LOL!
The Chrysler talk makes me think of my grandpa and his 65 Newport. He appreciated value, and I suspect he was waiting for a value-oriented car like that to come along - the equipment and relative prestige of a Chrysler at a mainstream model price. It was replaced by a fuselage Newport, so I think he had a good experience.
Today's sighting: 84-88 Toyota 4x4 single cab longbed pickup, in excellent looking condition. Had a V6 badge, so I think 1988.

I seriously thought that a Marysville Honda was the next new car that I would buy back then but I was not living any where close to a Honda dealer. Still the Accord was, to me, a real looker and I was sure I could live with it for a long time.
There were 2 Ford dealers close to me and I wound up buying a new '89 Probe which I really liked and kept for almost 20 years until a storm wiped out some buildings, trees, and my car.
Money always matters...But let's rule out weather and the nagging logistics of dealer service and just go with your gut. What obscure classic car might you still be driving from the wayback machine of 1988?
For me it would/should have been the 1988 Honda Accord LX.
(apparently these 80's cars from the "10 Best" lists still get tagged and driven in the PNW.)
And yes, still numerous pop up lights Accords as well as early Camry on the road here.
oops. just checked. not that old.
A BMW maybe. Or a Civic Si

I’d take a Town Car, Ford or Chevy truck, or a Mustang.
Maybe a Cadillac Brougham.

I liked the Accords in '88, but I was still driving my '82 Accord, then.
In 1990, I was shopping for an '88 or '89 Acura Legend Coupe... so, I'll pick that for my '88 car.
Never could find one that I could get down to my budget, so bought an '84 911 Targa, instead.

To these:
As I was 11
I kind of want a vintage BMX again (one identical to that photo, that was the dream bike), although I'd never ride it, they are just cool, and now quite collectible.
Had one last night that was $7.00.
Makes car inflation seem tame..

Cars aren't so bad. Let's take that 560SEC - maybe 75K then. A nicely loaded S560 coupe today is maybe 150K. Of course, one can argue the new ones aren't as special.
'18 BMW 440i = $60K
I should be paying $1.50 for beers!!

the rest of the craft stuff tended to be at least $6/pint.

BMW 6 series is kind of complicated I think. Kind of like a Bavarian French or Italian equivalent - just kidding (sort of) !
Maxima was Nissan from 1983 or 84 forward, and 88 was the last model year of the angular 80s style, 1989 was the more rounded "4DSC" style.
I never had one with mag wheels, but I was happy to have a BMX, until I decided I wanted something taller and with gears. My brother had a bike (GT I think) with mags, stolen and recovered, as I wrote his name on a hidden part of the frame. He also had a Redline that was stolen and never recovered.
