2,627K MILE ORIGINAL TURBOCHARGED BUICK GRAND NATIONAL

Grand Nationals that have not been modified and been kept in outstanding original condition are getting very rare indeed. How about one that has only 2,627K miles and has been kept original and pampered its entire life. The ones in this condition don’t come up for sale often. The market on these has been climbing making these GN's clearly collectible and desirable for all car collectors. Check out the Hagerty website on-line car value guide and you will see the value for GN’s increasing and GNX decreasing. This GN is outstanding and matching numbers in all aspects. It was an occasional driver and trailered to shows and never modified or driven hard. 100% stock and original.

There are some GN’s that are considered ‘lightweights’ by the GN collectors. These are cars did come with T-tops (that DOES NOT leak), NO power windows, NO power door locks, NO power seats, and NO cruise control. Very desirable.  This is one of those rare ‘lightweights’. I have never seen another with the T-top option as a ‘lightweight’. Simply put, original and very fast. It does have AM/FM stock radio and the G80 posi rear-end.

This Buick Grand National is sure to satisfy even the most discriminating 80’s muscle car enthusiast.

Mechanically:

This GN performs exceptionally - as new.  It is very quick and aggressive.  It needs no mechanical attention in its completely stock form.  New battery installed January 2014.  The AC unit needs to be recharged, minor detail.  The vehicle does not have a hint of rust. It is tight and handles and stops superbly.  It still wears its original tires that are not dry rotted or flat spotted.

Exterior cosmetics:

The black paint is original and looks great; the car has never been hit or been repaired.  The paint and body panels are exactly as it left the manufacturing plant in September 1987.  The GN’s only modification is the professional installation of side and rear window tinting.  

Interior cosmetics:

The interior is exceptional!  No wear, stains or cracks.  It smells like a factory new GN when you open the doors.  Never smoked in or mistreated in any fashion and no alterations from stock equipment have been made.

Special Note:

Vehicle comes with full ownership documentation, purchase & sales brochures, and the original sales agreement. Additionally, the GN comes with DUSTOP cover for maximum dust protection for indoor storage and with an exterior Weathershield car cover.  Even signed by Molly (now deceased) on the 20th reunion celebration for the Buick GN (in 2007)!  

As with all used collector cars this is sold as is and there is no warranty expressed or implied.  It is your responsibility to bid and purchase based only on your own inspection/examination of the vehicle and the facts.  Please feel free to contact me with your questions and with any assistance you might require in bidding or finalizing the sale.

A very reasonable reserve has been set for this magnificent vehicle!

Payment and deposit for this vehicle is to be by Wire Transfer or Certified Funds (cashier check).  The required deposit for this superb GN is $1,000.00 within 48 hours following the end of the auction and full payment is due within 5 days following the end of the auction.  Pickup and/or shipment is the sole responsibility of the buyer. IF THE TRANSACTION IS NOT PAID WITHIN THE TIME ALLOWED, I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO RETAIN YOUR DEPOSIT AND RESELL TO THE NEXT HIGHEST BIDDER OR RE-LIST THE ITEM.

Buick Encore takes a hit of Mokka to tackle Dakar

Wed, 03 Sep 2014

There are many vehicles we'd consider taking racing. Even on a cross-country rally as punishing as the Dakar. But a Buick Encore? That's not one that would enter our motorsports-based consciousness. Yet it's basically what General Motors is entering in the South American rally raid this year, and you're looking at it.
Unveiled at the Moscow Motor Show, this rally machine is based on (or at least billed as) an Opel Mokka - the name that GM's European brand applies to the vehicle Americans know as the Encore, Buick's subcompact crossover. Only it's obviously been extensively modified. It's got a ten-inch raised suspension, a 137-gallon fuel tank, carbon-fiber bodywork and... hold on, we're sure we're missing something here. Oh, right: a 6.2-liter V8 kicking out 340 horsepower and 487 pound-feet of torque to all four wheels through a six-speed sequential gearbox.
In other words, this is not the same Encore (or Mokka) you can pick up at your local Buick, Opel or Vauxhall dealership. It's not even close. It's not even recognizable as such, really. It was unveiled alongside a more sedate Opel Mokka Moscow Edition and a slew of other local debuts for the Opel brand that you can read more about in the (translated and original) Russian press release below.

2013 Buick Encore nets strong IIHS, NHTSA safety scores

Wed, 05 Jun 2013

After 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.

Opel Cascada is Europe's Buick convertible [w/video]

Wed, 17 Oct 2012

As 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.
