For 1987; the last of the rear-wheel drive Regals, and the only
year for our featured Turbo-T. Little known, low-production, and
often misinterpreted, the Turbo-T will most certainly take a back
seat to the 20,194 GNs and 547 GNX models on any given day. Not
many realize, though, that the WE4 just might be the fastest turbo
T-Type Regal on the street.
The Turbo-T is actually lighter than its GN brethren, due to
several factors. First, the use of aluminum T-Type wheels versus
the steel GN wheels means less rotating weight. Also, aluminum
bumper braces (trunk label code VD6 and VD7) help shed weight off
the nose (the GN contained steel units). Power across the
performance board arrived as 245 horses and 355-lbs.ft. of torque,
thank you very much. The car's appearance is very GN-like, minus
the rear spoiler. T-tops and Astroroof could be ordered, along with
the black paint and WO2 Exterior Sport Package (blacked-out trim).
Even more interesting are the black bumpers versus chrome; a GN
incognito.
A grand total of 1,547 WE4 Turbo-T units left the assembly line,
meaning that aside from the GNX, the Turbo-T is one of the rarest
turbo Regals to leave the line. The announcement of the model came
compliments of a Buick Product bulletin dated November 11, 1986;
already well into the model-year production, with a production
start date of December 8. Interestingly, just two days prior, a
bulletin had been released stating that the WE4 would no longer be
available with the WO2 black-out kit trim package.
"The only difference between the new WE4 version and the black one
with the WO2 exterior sport package would be the old WE4 version
would have matching black bumpers. The new one would have chrome
bumpers." Just how many truly black WE4s Buick made before the
change is not known, but it's a good bet that not too many of these
were built. 1987 was the only year that the LC2 Turbo option was
available on any Regal.
This Regal T-Type Was One Of Only 2,664 Built For The Canadian
Market - With Only 280 of Those Having The Y56 T-Type Package.
