1990 Jeep Grand Wagoneer: 39,000 Original Mile Local Santa Barbara, Ca Example on 2040-cars
Santa Barbara, California, United States
Offered for sale is our astonishingly original 1990 Jeep Grand Wagoneer that has accrued a mere 39,000 original miles from new during its extraordinarily well-cared-for life. Finished in its factory correct Baltic Blue Metallic over a Sand interior, the car is exceptionally original and well preserved, making this an incredible opportunity to acquire a truly collectible American icon and the final production run, “Best of the Breed” example. We were fortunate enough to have the opportunity to purchase this Jeep from its passionate local Santa Barbara, CA owner. For the last decade this Jeep has seen only occasional use, always garaged and carefully maintained and used only as a seasonal beach cruiser during the summer months. It has been professionally serviced regularly throughout its life and recently received a full engine, suspension and transmission service. The previous owner has completed over $6,000 in preventive maintenance over the past few years through a local Santa Barbara shop. This is an absolutely remarkable original Grand Wagoneer that should command the attention of any serious collector or enthusiast. This spectacular Grand Wagoneer has certainly stood the test of time. The paint retains incredible depth and luster, showing only the most negligible of imperfections, and the body exhibits perfect panel fit and consistency throughout. This car has been consistently detailed on a weekly basis with fastidious care and attention. Every aspect of the car shows this attention to detail. The chrome, the glass, and the rubber are all in excellent original condition and the original wheels are nearly flawless, wrapped in tires with plenty of remaining tread. The completely original interior is absolutely beautiful. The original seats are nearly brand new, the carpets have been incredibly well preserved, the headliner is like new, the dash is pristine without cracking, fading, or warping, and the instruments and trim are excellent. The car has un upgraded radio, but its original and fully functional radio unit will be included with the car. It is obvious that this Jeep has been under the proud and careful ownership of true Wagoneer enthusiasts. After twenty-four careful years on the road this Grand Wagoneer is in exceptional mechanical order. The engine is incredibly strong with even compression and the 3-speed gearbox is without fault. The car drives straight and true, and brakes and handling are all as they should be. As previously mentioned, the Jeep has gone through a recent comprehensive service and has benefited from years of preventive maintenance and care irregardless of cost. The 4WD system was also serviced and had its fluids replaced. Consequently, the ride quality and performance are what one would expect from an extremely well-maintained, 39,000 original mile car. The Wagoneer had one of the longest production runs in US history, spanning 28 years under license of three different manufacturers. Chrysler bought the rights to Jeep in 1987 and set about making a few minor changes to the Wagoneer, refining the exterior and addressing some known faults of the car, prompting new branding as the “Grand” Wagoneer. The 1987 plus model year Grand Wagoneers, received improved wood siding, modernized aluminum wheels and two stage base coat/clear coat paint finish. In 1989 the Grand Wagoneer received a few more upgrades to keep it competitive with its new competitor, the Grand Cherokee. These final three production years received a new A/C compressor, rear wiper assembly and an overhead console with compass and temperature gauges. The changes made to these 1989-1991 model year Grand Wagoneers and the resulting strong sales numbers further a legacy that solidified the Wagoneers place in automotive history. These examples are known as “the best of the breed”, not because of Chrysler’s marketing, but their high production quality, classic styling and strong mechanicals have caused Jeep enthusiasts to bestow them with that honor. This is an excellent opportunity to acquire what is arguably one of the finest original examples of a quickly appreciating icon. Finding them in this condition, especially unrestored, is becoming virtually impossible, driving values to levels that were never expected and yet completely understandable from a collector’s perspective. Whether this stellar example is to be used as a more frequent driver or as a fun alternative asset in a serious collection, if you’re in the market for an exceptional Grand Wagoneer, it deserves your serious consideration. We want this
car to go to great home and would be happy to further discuss it and answer any
questions, so please feel free to email us or call us at 805-202-4557.

2014 Jeep Cherokee will keep Liberty designation in China... sort of
Wed, 17 Apr 2013Chinese buyers will get their first live look at the 2014 Jeep Cherokee during the Shanghai Motor Show, but CarNewsChina is reporting that it will go by a different name - Ziyou Guan, which translates to "Liberty Light." The article states that our Jeep Liberty was never sold in China, but the iconic XJ Cherokee was sold and produced there as the Qinuoji (a phonetic translation of Cherokee).
The new Jeep Liberty Light will be built alongside the Fiat Viaggio (China's Fiat-badged version of the Dodge Dart) at the Guangzhou-Fiat plant, and the two models will share the same powertrains: a 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder base engine paired to a five-speed manual or a dual-clutch transmission and a 2.4-liter four-cylinder (the base engine for the US-spec 2014 Cherokee) as an optional engine. It doesn't sound like the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 will be offered in China.
We'll be on hand when the new Jeep debuts in Shanghai, so stay tuned to Autoblog this Friday night and Saturday for our live coverage of the show.
Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
Auto critic calls out Corvette, Mustang and Cherokee faithful
Mon, 26 Aug 2013Most automotive purists fear change, but not without reason. Change, after all, did kill big-block V8s, along with most station wagons and manual transmissions. But change has also brought with it far more performance, safety and fuel economy - not to mention ridding the world of shag carpet interiors, bias-ply tires and those horrible motorized seatbelts of the early '90s.
By this time next year, the Chevy Corvette, Jeep Cherokee and next-generation Ford Mustang will all be on sale and will all, in some way, have angered or offended purists. To those critics, Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press is preemptively telling them to stop complaining - at least until they've all been driven. From the Corvette's square taillights and the Cherokee's radical nose to whatever pony car purists will harp on the 2015 Mustang for, Phelan's column points out the positives of automotive evolution and the negatives of staying the course for too long. That's fair enough, but do you think Phelan is on point, or all wet? Head on over to the Detroit Free Press to read his words, then have your say in Comments.
