Grand National Clone on 2040-cars
El Paso, Texas, United States
The story on this vehicle is: I purchased this vehicle back in February of this year for a birthday present to myself. I flew into Phoenix and drove the vehicle back to Fort Bliss, Texas with no problems. I then left on the 26 of February to go overseas to Afghanistan and I just arrived back home. The vehicle has been in the garage and/or covered up with a car cover. Since I didn't have a chance to give a once over, I have now and the car is fine. I have put a new positive battery cable on and a new alternator and new K&N filter and edelbrock air cleaner. Other than that, it could stand to use an oil change and that's basically it. I just bought a 1996 Chevrolet Impala from guy off ebay out of California, so selling this one because I don't need two fast cars in my driveway plus I am going back overseas in a couple of weeks.
What we have here is a: 1. 1987 Buick Grand National Clone with the Grand National Hood and Grand National Hood Insulation and everything blacked out with no rust. 2. Engine: 350 Vortec out of a 1995 Chevrolet Tahoe. Heads out of a 1998 Chevrolet Tahoe, and not to mention dual electric fans. 3. Transmission: 700R4 with a shift kit and you feel every gear. Rear End: Posi rear end with 3.73 gears. 4. Has A/C and Heat, both work, but A/C will need recharging. 5. Single exhaust out to the right rear tire. Single flowmaster muffler. 6. Runs, drives, and shifts fine with no leaks. 7. Exterior: I do not know the paint color, but if I had to say, it is a charcoal black with some type of flake. 8. No 20 footer here, paint looks real good with one bubble spot at the rear. Both front and rear bumpers were painted the same color also. 9. Interior: Black leather with one rip behind the driver side seat. 10. Aftermarket Pioneer CD player, One Pioneer 5 1/4 speaker in each door, and four Pioneer 6x9 speakers in the rear deck. Sounds nice. Custom divider board in trunk to hide amp if you decide to put subs in the trunk, and wires are already ran for an amp and subs from previous owner. 11. Aftermarket alarm, very sensitive, Aftermarket gauges, for volts, oil, and temperature and everything works properly. 12. Lights, signals, gauges, power windows, and power locks work as they should. 13. Most of the rubber seals and or moldings are brand new and new K&N air filter and edelbrock air cleaner, and new alternator. 14. Powder Coated Tyfun 22 Inch Rims on brand new tires, 235/30/22 at the front and 245/30/22 at the back. 15. Vehicle is lowered 2 inches in the front. Disc brakes in the front and Drums in the rear. 16. Needs a new windshield wiper switch and/or lever, previous owner never installed one because he hardly drove and never in the rain and neither did I. 17. Needs a new horn switch and signal switch lever tip is broken off but still works. 18. This is an everyday driver, good solid car, fly in and drive it home, no problems. 19. I am selling this car because I just bought a 1996 Chevrolet Impala when I got back from overseas. 20. If you need any more pic or have any questions feel free to contact me by email or @ 404-680-2857 or 770-601-6223. 21. With that have been said no bs and no scammers and good luck bidding. 22. Shipping is the sole responsibility of the buyer.

What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name
Thu, 07 Aug 2014
The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
2013 Buick Encore nets strong IIHS, NHTSA safety scores
Wed, 05 Jun 2013After 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.
Buick Adam a reality after all... but only in China
Mon, 03 Mar 2014General Motors may have parred down its brand portfolio, but it still has more under its umbrella than most. That's why, while a company like Ford might market the same vehicle under its own name in markets around the world, GM uses different brands in different markets. But no two are aligned quite as closely as Opel in Europe and Buick in the United States and China.
What we know here as the Buick Regal is sold overseas as the Opel Insignia. Our Encore is their Mokka. Verano? Astra sedan. But one thing we don't get here is the Opel Adam. The diminutive city car is GM's take on the Mini Cooper, Fiat 500, Citroën DS3 et al. Launched at the 2012 Paris Motor Show, the Opel Adam is named after the company's founder (like an ironic thumbing of the nose to the Ferrari Enzo). But while it's sold, like most Opels, in the UK as a Vauxhall, the prospect of it porting over to Buick seems slim to none. Right?
Sorta. While the Adam isn't likely to come Stateside, the latest reports (as yet unconfirmed by GM) suggest that The General is planning to sell the Adam in China where the Buick brand is also a strong seller. Local production could ensue, with prices targeting the Fiat 500 and engines - according to CarNewsChina.com - to include inline-fours displacing 1.2 and 1.4 liters with 69 and 100 horsepower, respectively.
