    Meh, I don't know. If you can blow a 3800 with less than 56K miles, I wonder what the rest of the car is like...

      Yeah those motors are pretty reliable...

      Definately look at the suspension, etc...I would bet that the blown motor was a dumb mechanics fault, etc. Most people of the age that would beat on a car won't be buying a Regal, whether or not its supercharged. It could have had a plugged fuel injector, etc causing the motor to pop...ya never know...but yeah that seems like a good price if everything checks out...

      At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

        I have 225k on a '91 Regal with a 3800 Tuned Port, and that thing runs like a dream, never done any work to any of the drivetrain, and I've given that car a pretty hard life for the time I drove it. I wonder why one would blow at only 56K, especially the newer ones.

        Current Cars:
        08 Honda Ruckus - Stunt Machine
        93 Subaru Impreza L - DD/ Winter beater
        90 Honda CRX - Project car
        90 Honda CRX Dx - Burnt (R.I.P.) - Racecar

        Past Cars: 85 Chevy C-10, 87 Dodge D-50, 91 Honda Prelude Si, 91 Buick Regal, 91 Acura Integra Ls, 87 Mazda RX-7, 90 Honda Civic Si, 91 Honda Civic Si, 89 Chevy S-10, 91 Honda Crx Hf, 91 Acura Integra Rs, 95 Subaru Impreza L, 92 Acura Integra GSR, 89 Mazda RX-7 (LT1), 88 Mazda RX-7, 92 Civic Cx, 87 Mazda RX-7 TII

                      if it all checks out right id say go for it. those things are cozy as hell. personally i think newer buicks are more comfortable to drive than cadillacs, but thats just my opinion.
