Woodside, New York, United States

1971 Buick Riviera GS Factory Gran Sport - First year of the beautifully redesigned and sensational 1971 model year Riviera, featuring the dramatic, flowing boat-tail styling with sweeping, sculpted sides, coupled with the very desirable GS Gran Sport option, makes this very low production dream car a very rare automobile.  The GS option includes the Big Block 455 ci V-8 matching-numbers 7.5 L engine linked to the rugged, specially calibrated Turbohydramatic 400 three-speed transmission, topped with the exclusive GS chrome air cleaner.  GS features include automatic floor gear shifter mounted on a center console that is canted towards the driver for ease of operation, and heavy duty springs, shocks and stabilizer bars.  I am not the original owner to verify any mileage, the odometer reads 10425. This GS is not at all tired and is very fast and responsive.

The distinctive V-butted rear window and the spine running down the full length of the car, through the roofline and down through the boat tail were design cues inspired by the 1963 Corvette Sting Ray split window coupe.  Other distinctive features on the 1971 Buick Riviera are the dual deck lid slotted ventilation system louvres on the trunk lid, only available in 1971, Buick's Mack trac traction control system (prevents wheelspin during acceleration on slippery surfaces), and numerous GS standard features making this Gran Sport fully loaded, including Factory A/C, Power Steering, Power Front Disc Brakes, Power Windows, Power Seat, Dual Exhaust, Safety Speed Alarm, Tilt Steering Wheel, AM/FM Radio, Buick Chrome Mag Wheels including the spare in the trunk, original jack, factory body-side moulding, trunk light, owners manual etc.

Always garaged, this GS is strong and solid (no body filler) including the undercarriage, floors and trunk. This particular GS spent its entire life in the dry NM climate until 2002 when it was shipped here to NY and garaged and cared for ever since. Chrome is gorgeous including the rear bumper which is seldom seen free of dings or damage. The GS drives and shifts beautifully and always garners much attention and many compliments whenever it is seen.  A Top-of-the-line classic; a motion-sculpted work of art from any angle viewed. Gorgeous unexcelled Bill Mitchell concept car design. Low starting bid. Please bid with confidence. This is rare opportunity to own this very low production GS model.  No reserve auction. For any further detailed information, please call (718) 486-3271. NY Thank you.

Opel Cascada close to getting green light for US

Fri, 13 Sep 2013

For a company with a long tradition of grand touring convertibles, it's almost unseemly that General Motors doesn't offer a properly relaxed four-seat convertible in North America. There's the Chevrolet Camaro, of course, but it's not big on rear-seat space and it doesn't offer that sort of serene demeanor that many open-air buyers crave. We're thinking of something more refined and, dare we say, elegant. Something a bit closer to the Opel Cascada.
The General's front-wheel drive convertible went on sale in Europe this year, and while it seemed like a natural fit for its Buick brand in America, it's never been sold here. That may be about to change, however. Back in June, CEO Dan Akerson hinted he'd like to see the Cascada available in the US, and now there's word from Edmunds that importation "could happen soon." That's according to an unnamed insider at the company.

Watch this phantom Buick drive itself down the highway in a snow storm

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

Years ago, General Motors used Buick cars to test out the idea of a "smart highway" concept. More recently, GM has been talking up its award-winning Super Cruise semi-autonomous technology that will roll out with Cadillac and make its way to Buick. The LeSabre in the video above has nothing to do with any of that.
On Interstate 15 in Utah, a man driving this LeSabre got into an accident that rearranged the front end and set the horn on permanent blare. At the time of writing this, no one is sure what happened next, but the man ended up sitting in the snow in the highway median while his car carried on down the highway without him. Passing traffic stayed well to the right.
The 51-second video below provides a different take on our autonomous future. A local newscast on KUTV covered the story the evening of the incident, but the Utah Highway Patrol didn't have any update on the fate of the LeSabre. We'll take that to mean that Buick's take on Christine could still be out on the prowl... so watch out!

Buick Envision crossover to premiere in China

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

Buick currently offers two crossovers: the compact Encore and the extra-large Enclave, leaving plenty of room to slot a mid-size crossover in between. And that's just what Buick is planning on doing. In China, anyway.
Previewed in the teaser above, Buick's upcoming new crossover is cloaked and nestled in between its aforementioned stablemates-to-be. Set to be unveiled in China sometime later this year, the model has been confirmed to wear the name Envision - at least in that market. That's the name which the concept version wore three years ago, but we're still waiting on word over whether that name will carry over to the US version or whether we should expect something different like Anthem. But we have to admit that Envision fits better in the brand's crossover naming scheme.
Shanghai GM isn't saying much about the Envision in the press release below, aside from it having "dynamic and assertive styling" backed by all-wheel drive and stop/start ignition. The last time Buick offered a mid-size crossover in North America was with the Pontiac Aztek-based Rendezvous that was discontinued seven years ago.
