Year:1987 Mileage:81410 Color: are original
Location:

Alpine, California, United States

Alpine, California, United States

This is the Grand National to have. Plain and simple. Original California car. The car has 81,000 original miles on the chassis. Mileage matches with the title. The engine was rebuilt 10,000 miles ago with bigger pistons, roller rocker cam, new seals and gaskets, and everything else in a rebuild. The turbocharger is a larger TA-40 Garrett with a matching larger intercooler as well. The transmission was rebuilt less than 7,000 miles ago with upgraded components and a shift kit as well as a deep sump transmission oil pan. Rear end is posi-traction with deeper gear oil pan. Aftermarket sway bars are wider diameter than stock. Upgraded Vacuum brake booster system with larger diameter bore brake calipers for better braking. Aftermarket traction bars. Air ride suspension which can be adjusted with air valves installed in the rear bumper. Centerline racing wheels and good tires, wider in the back for more traction. Engine also has aftermarket MAF sensor, air intake tubes, Kenne Bell Ram air intake system and air filter, aftermarket fuel injector ecu, adjustable crank positioner, gutted catalytic converter, dual exhaust, Kenne Bell gauge panel, 140 mph speedometer, aftermarket chips, and computer terminal for engine tuning and dyno runs. 

The interior and exterior are original. The mirrors and spoiler have been repainted but everything else in original paint. The clear coat has very small cracks in it but it looks fantastic. There is a dent on the passenger side door, couple dings on the hood, and a much fainter one on the driver side door but besides that there isn't much else. The car is beautiful. These are getting very hard to find and one in this shape with this few original miles is very limited. I absolutely love this car. It hauls ass. Will smoke any Honda or Mustang on the road but I'm on my out of the country for awhile and want someone who can keep it maintained and in its excellent condition. The car has been garaged its whole life and you can tell by looking at it.

Also has an Eclipse Subwoofer, Kenwood amplifier, Kenwood stereo with auxillary port for your MP3. I have receipts for everything listed in this ad. Over $16,000 in parts alone have been spent on this car. That's not including labor. The title is clean and in my name. Registration is up to date. If you are in California I will need to smog it before you pick it up or ship it.

I know I'm forgetting other things on this car. You wouldn't be able to build this car for less than $30,000. 

The buyer is responsible for shipping. Nonrefundable deposit of $500 within two days of winning the auction.

ORIGINAL Wheels are included with the vehicle along with the Centerline wheels.

2013 Buick Encore nets strong IIHS, NHTSA safety scores

Wed, 05 Jun 2013

After being crushed from every which way and rolled over like a labrador, the 2013 Buick Encore has been named a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. To earn the accolade, a vehicle must achieve the highest rating of "Good" in each of the institute's four main crash tests: Front Moderate Overlap, Side, Rollover and Rear. The Encore aced those four tests with "Good" ratings, but missed out on the coveted Top Safety Pick+ designation by receiving a Poor rating in the institute's new Front Small Overlap test. To be named a Top Safety Pick+, the Encore would need to score at least an "Acceptable" rating in the new test, as well as "Good" in all four original crash tests.
Despite the miss, the Encore joins the Enclave, LaCrosse, Verano and Regal as Top Safety Picks all. If you count only the Encore with all-wheel drive, then all five Buicks have also earned five-star overall ratings from the National Highway Traffic Safety Adminstration, making Buick one of the few manufacturers to offer a full lineup with high scores from both safety rating organizations.
The front-wheel-drive Encore, despite performing equally as well as the all-wheel-drive version in NHTSA's crash tests, only earned four stars overall. As far as we can tell, the discrepancy between the two is because some safety equipment, like Forward Collision Warning and Lane Departure Assist, are optional features on the FWD Encore and standard on the AWD model.

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.

Opel Cascada is Europe's Buick convertible [w/video]

Wed, 17 Oct 2012

As we reported earlier, there has been much speculation regarding a Buick convertible of sorts. The most ringing endorsement of this conjecture comes today from General Motors Europe, as the new Opel Cascada has debuted on the interwebs. Opel calls the four-passenger Cascada an "athletic, glamorous midsize convertible." With a length of 4,697mm (185 in.), the Cascada is as long as an Audi A5, to which GM has said it would be slightly larger.
The Cascada, which is Spanish for waterfall, features a cloth convertible top that retracts in 17 seconds and at speeds up to 50 km/h (31 mph). The Cascada features a 1.4-liter turbo gas engine, 2.0-liter turbodiesel with 165 horsepower and a range-topping 1.6-liter turbocharged Ecotec engine that puts out 170 horsepower and 280 Nm (207 lb-ft). Power is sent through either a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission.
According to GM, the Cascada will also come rife with luxury and tech features. In addition to adaptive forward lighting and ergonomic heated front seats, the convertible will feature Opel Eye, which is a front camera that can recognize traffic signs and incorporates lane departure warning and forward collision alert.
