A very nice 2 owner Buick Riviera. Bought new in NM it has never left the state which means NO RUST. In 1983 Buick celebrated its' 20th anniversary with the "XX Anniversary model". Only 502 hardtops badged as “XX Anniversary Edition” models, where produced. These cars got special REAL!! NOT HUB CAPS!! wire wheels, 24K gold-plated badging, and some serious upgrades like hand-made 24 ounce wool carpeting, English walnut wood veneer plates, and a wood steering wheel. Mechanically, these cars had the 4.1-liter V-6 (or optional 5.0-liter V-8 which this car has which makes it even rarer), four-wheel disc brakes, and the Gran Touring suspension .
This car is In very good condition , mileage indicated is 53088. The car fax report shows that the mileage was 30,050 in October of 1996 then in October of 1998 it was 139,147, an obvious reporting error . I'm sure the cars' mileage is 53088 because of the great overall condition of the interior and exterior. starts and drives very well, all the glass is good, has the padded half top, tires, brakes etc are all good. Suede leather seats, the cruise control was disconnected before I got the car so I dont know if this was done due to a broken cable ( most likely) or the head control. No electrical or mechanical problems , power everything. the seats have power lumbar bags and are power , power windows all work ok, ac works although not as cold as I would like it, power locks, am/fm cassette plays fine., tilt steering wheel. A rock or something hit the front bumper just below the headlights on the passenger side and caused a circular crack about the size of a baseball in the plastic facia but the rest of the body is fine with no dents or damage. Fly in, drive it home.
Advertising locally so I reserve the right to end this auction at any time. questions? call or text dean 505-414-0617 also looking for straight acroos trade, make offer, all I can say is "no".

Buick to add more GS models?
Fri, 29 Nov 2013Buick may not be the first name that comes to mind when you think of performance automobiles, but fans of the brand know what letters to look for. If you believe the reports, there's a new GNX and Grand National on the way, but in the meantime, Buick may offer more GS models to fill the void.
Currently, the Regal is the only model available as a GS (pictured above), packing the same 259-horsepower turbo four as the Regal Turbo but enhanced with key suspension, brakes and rolling-stock upgrades. As Car and Driver notes, similar upgrades could easily be applied to the Verano and LaCrosse, although maybe not the Encore or Enclave crossovers. Of course, Buick would still have to steer clear of Cadillac's Vsport line, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have a little room to play.
Buick has best sales year ever, delivers over 1M cars globally
Wed, 08 Jan 2014If there are any lingering doubts why General Motors held onto Buick while killing Pontiac, Hummer and Saturn, one only has to look at the sales numbers from 2013 for the real answer. Thanks largely to strong sales in China, Buick set a global sales record last year by selling more than one million vehicles.
The lion's share of Buick sales came from China, which sold more than 809,000 units - about four times more Buicks than were sold in North America as a whole. In the US, the Buick Encore accounted for almost half of all US sales with 97,311 units as Buick spent the summer trying to keep up with demand of the subcompact crossover. Likewise, China-only models like the GL8 minivan and Excelle sedan (same as the US-spec Verano) were strong sellers in that market.
For good measure, Buick more than doubled its sales in Mexico with 2,319 units. Scroll down for the full press release.
GM recalling 1.5M cars in China for faulty bracket
Fri, 27 Dec 2013General Motors and its Chinese partners have announced their second recall in the People's Republic this year, following a 2,653-unit recall of the Cadillac SRX earlier this year. This latest recall affects nearly 1.5 million cars built between 2006 and 2012. It's not explicitly stated, but as there's no movement from the US NHTSA, we suspect that the cars in question were all Chinese-built rather than imports.
The vast majority of the affected vehicles are Buick Excelles (pictured), with 1.2 million units being recalled over a faulty bracket that's meant to secure the fuel pump. The Excelles in question were built between 2006 and 2012, while an additional 250,000 Chevrolet Sail superminis, built between April 2009 and October 2011, are being recalled for a similar reason.
According to the PRC's Administration for Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, the faulty bracket could crack and potentially cause a fuel leak.
