1999 Buick Park Avenue Ultra-low Miles-very Well Taken Care Of-supercharged! on 2040-cars
Fountain Valley, California, United States
|
Up for auction is a really nice, one owner California Park Avenue Ultra. I purchased this car about 4 months ago with the intention of using it as the family second car. Unfortunately, it rarely ever gets driven. So, my wife and I have decided to pass it on to somebody who will use it everyday and enjoy it.
The car has been well cared for over and garaged most of it's life. Most all of the original owner's service history is from the dealer as evident by all of the parts that have been replaced are factory GM, including the new battery. At some point several years ago the car was repainted under warranty by GM as the original Pearl White paint was pealing (typical GM car). They did an average job on the respray, but it looks nice in general and appears very sharp. All of the exterior trim is very nice with minimum to no sun aging. The car has never been damaged and the body is straight. The chrome wheels are very nice ad free of corrosion or damage and the tires have about 50% tread left. Brakes and rotors are new GM parts. The engine is tight, quiet, and powerful. If you look in the oil filler cap the internal part of the engine is factory clean. There are no leaks or issues whatsoever. It is a very tight an quiet car that has been only adult driven and maintained properly. The interior is in very nice condition and shows very little wear. The back seat is perfect an looks as though it has never been used. Dash is perfect as all gauges work properly. It has the upgraded Concert Sound II with the CD changer in the trunk as will as a single disk on the dash. The dual climate control works perfect and the a/c is ice cold. Headliner and carpet are in great condition. All controls are working properly, however the right rear window is stubborn at times. The ashtray sometimes will not click and stay closed, sometimes it will. It has never been smoked in, however when I drive it I will plug my cell phone charger in the lighter area. The center console is in good shape, but there is some type of color pealing in one panel. Luckily under the pealing is the same color. I researched this and found that GM painted some of their parts and this is common. The front seats do have a little wear in the leather, but nothing major and probably less than the typical car of this era. The driver's seat bottom front doesn't like to move up and down with power, it just buzzes. All of the other dual power seat controls work perfect as does the 4 way lumbar. All in all, a very clean, well maintained and never abused interior that even smells fresh! I looked for this model for a while and and found this one to be the one with the best maintained driveline. She is smooth and quiet and gets great fuel economy. The supercharger is a must for his car since it siting on the heavier Cadillac chassis. In essence you have all the luxury of the Seville but without the headaches of the problematic Northstar. If you are looking for a clean, well maintained Park Avenue Supercharged, look no further... The car ran out of registration at the end of January, but has the clean original title and will come with a current smog certificate for any California buyers... Please ask any and all questions, we will be happy to answer them. Thank You. |

Opel Cascada is Europe's Buick convertible [w/video]
Wed, 17 Oct 2012As 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.
Movie Review: Black Air: The Buick Grand National Documentary
Thu, 06 Dec 2012As Buick currently claws and scratches its way back into relevance to compete against luxury brands like Lexus and Acura, it's hard to believe that not too long ago, the brand had a car that was mentioned in the same breath as Corvette, Lamborghini and Ferrari. That car? None other than the Buick Grand National. All black with a turbocharged V6 and some of the quickest acceleration of its time, the Grand National, in today's standards, is along the lines of a 2013 Shelby GT500 with both cars essentially being a working man's supercar.
The last Grand National rolled off the assembly line in Flint, MI on December 11, 1987, and to mark the silver anniversary of that somber occasion, Black Air is a documentary of the Grand National from the perspective of the enthusiast, the collector, the media and even from those at General Motors responsible for creating such a sinister legend. Like the car itself, Andrew Filippone Jr. shoots the documentary in a raw fashion, and it definitely helps to show why a low-volume muscle car from the 1980s is still the object of obsession for many automotive enthusiasts to this day.
2013 Buick Encore
Wed, 14 Aug 2013Ignored On Arrival, But Coming On Strong
An image exists out there that perfectly conveys the fate we thought would befall the Buick Encore after its world debut at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show. The shot shows the just-unveiled Encore on stage, basking in the glow of spotlights but surrounded by a large display area that's bereft of both cars and people. Two journalists are sitting on a couch over to the side, both facing the Encore but ignoring it as they inspect their swag, and a solitary custodial engineer pushes a vacuum back and forth across a sea of gray carpet.
Like a kid with his birthday cake at a party no one came to, this little crossover's debut was largely, almost cruelly, ignored. Who can blame us, though? Two shows ago, the Motor City's main stage welcomed the redesigned Aston Martin-esque Ford Fusion, the 3 Series-assassin ATS from Cadillac and the return of Dodge to the small car game with the Dart. A fourth model for the wayward Buick brand, especially one so arguably un-Buick in form and function, did not seem to deserve the attention paid to its peers that year.
