 Bidding on a very clean 1986 Buick GN with just over 104K Original miles with only 2 previous owners with a very clean History report, No accidents!!  I can fax you the Carfax if you would like to see it before placing bids. This is one clean GN all restored with 1 repaint, was taken down to bare metal before repainting, no overspray. As most know the factory paint was not known to hold up over the years. Also all Factory bumper fillers which were known to crack have been replaced. This GN also came equipped from the factory with some very nice rare options including the  Astroroof ( CF-5 ) or Sunroof which actually still functions properly, most collectors prefer the astroroof over the T-tops because they did not make many still maintaining the upper structure of the GN, especially in 86 where there was only just over 5k Grand Nationals produced, comparing to over 20K Grand Nationals built in 1987.   Another very nice option was the Limited slip posi-traction ( G-80 ) which is a must have for any GN owner, have driven them without the posi-traction and they do not handle the same at all.  Other options including the light weight aluminum bumper brackets and rear defogger to name a few.  All of these optioned mentioned are also verified on the Service Parts Identification Label found on the inside of the trunk lid.  The engine compartment is one of the cleanest I have seen with no leaks of any kind, Also has been all restored to factory with all new hoses. The 3.8 Turbo sounds great and is mechanically sound with just over 100K miles, will not need anything in the near future, still has more power then you will ever think of using.  The Interior is all Original also and is like Brand New with No tears or stains, no odors of any kind. The undercarriage is all rust-free and does not have any issues, a very clean driver overall ready for the new owner to enjoy. Also has brand new dual exhaust and new tires last year with only 3000 miles on them. To nitpick I would say the rear speakers will need replaced, needs a cig lighter (if needed) and a small piece of chrome is missing off the drivers door interior panel and the Original factory rims could use restored if you want them perfect but look nice for a driver.  Average Nada price is well above my low reserve and these Buicks are appreciating every day. A $500 Non-refundable Deposit is due as soon as auction ends, and the balance in a cashiers check within 7 days or cash when car is picked up, I can hold the car in my garage until the car is picked up but full payment is required within 7 days of auction end. Any Questions please ask before placing bids. I can help with Transporting to anywhere in the US at buyers expense. Only serious bidders please, these auctions are Not cheap, Thanx and Good luck!!

GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.

Buick celebrates 110 years by naming most significant model of each decade

Sun, 23 Jun 2013

In May of 1903, Buick began work on its first vehicle, the 1904 Model B, the first example of which was sold to a doctor in Flint, Michigan. That first sale was appropriate since later on, Buick became known as a "doctor's car." The Model B is the first of 11 cars chosen by Buick to highlight each decade of the company's 110-year history.
The 1916 D-45 Touring with a six-cylinder engine was Buick's highest seller that year, and helped push overall sales past six figures for the first time, making Buick the top-selling automotive brand. In 1931, Series 50 got an eight-cylinder engine, which helped the company survive the Great Depression. The 1936 Century was the first Buick that could hit 100 miles per hour, the 1949 Roadmaster had a supporting role in Rain Man, the 1953 Skylark had Italian wire wheels and the owner's name engraved on its steering wheel.
Then we have the iconic 1963 Riviera, the V6-powered 1975 Regal, and in 1987, the legendary GNX. With a turbocharged, intercooled V6 pumping out 276-horsepower it could hit 60 mph in just 4.6 seconds. In 1999 Buick built the first car in China, the Century, and that country remains the brand's largest market.

Updated Buick LaCrosse, Regal to debut at New York Auto Show

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Judging by the spy shots we saw last week for the 2014 Buick LaCrosse and 2014 Buick Regal, we knew it wouldn't be much longer until we saw both sedans receive a grand debut. Today, Buick confirmed to Autoblog both cars will be introduced at the New York Auto Show next month, but no further information has yet been released about either model.
Having been on the market for an extra couple years, the changes to the LaCrosse appear to be more significant than those coming for the Regal, but both will be getting refreshed exterior designs as well as updated interiors. The Regal's new face brings it more in line with the all-new Encore and the restyled Enclave, while the LaCrosse should get a more distinctive, upscale appearance.
Both cars will be introduced exactly a month from today, and we'll be there to bring you all the coverage.
