History of the WE4:

On Nov. 15, 1986, Buick issued a bulletin to all dealers stating it would begin production on Dec. 8, 1986, of a limited number of factory “lightweight” Regals, marketing the option as the Regal WE4 Turbo ‘T’ Package. (This also may be referred to in some literature as the Regal “Special Turbo ‘T’ Package.”) Buick wanted to promote Regals with the WE4 Turbo ‘T’ option as being similar in appearance to the Grand National, minus the rear spoiler. All Special Turbo ‘T’ Package Regals would be identical with a blacked-out exterior, all-gray interior trim package, special exterior badging that included a red ‘T’ on the front fenders, aluminum wheels, aluminum bumper supports and aluminum rear brake drums as opposed to the Grand National’s cast-steel drums. All of this would make the Regal WE4 Turbo ‘T’ lighter and hence, faster than a Grand National, and for a lower price.

This new WE4 Regal lightweight would still be rated at the conservative 245 hp with 355 lbs.-ft. of torque, but its weight reduction would allow it to average in the mid-to-high 13-second range in the quarter-mile. Buick produced a limited run of 1,547 lightweight Regal WE4 Turbo ‘T’ cars while some 20,194 buyers opted for a Grand National in its final-year run.

If you want a car that looks like a Grand National that is more rare than a Grand National and you don't mind trying to explain to people what the car is then get a WE4.

I have owned this car since 2004. Has always been garaged and covered. Never driven in rain or snow.

Car:

1987 WE4 with 89,000 original miles. Has the VERY RARE, factory Astro Power moon roof. Factory installed spoiler.

Engine is a brand-new factory rebuild with an existing warranty for 2 years. Here is an excerpt directly from the Engine MFG Website. Engine has approximately 50 miles on it plus break in run time.

• Engine blocks are magnafluxed, cylinders bored and precision honed, and main saddles line honed to exacting OE specifications
• Camshaft bearing line bored for accurate center to center clearance

Interior:

Interior is stock gray. Seats are all in perfect shape with very little wear if any, No rips, tears, stains or anything of the like. Sale of the vehicle comes with a brand-new gray carpet for the interior. As you can see, there is nothing wrong with the original carpet

Body / Exterior / Paint:

Overall the paint is 7 out of 10. It is showable quality in the respect that you can bring it to a show and it looks great. There are minor blemishes all around such as clear coat showing fading on the rear quarters. Has your typical rock chips etc. that would be expected on a 30 year old car. The paint has been touched up in various areas over the years. The front and rear bumpers are freshly painted, the front and rear bumper fillers are Spool Fool (Best quality and fit on the market ($700)) And are also freshly painted. The passenger door was damaged so it has been replaced with a new door, fresh paint, new window motor and new window sweeps. Please look at the video of the walk around which speaks for itself.
