1984 Buick Century Limited Estate Station Wagon - Rare V/6 Diesel on 2040-cars
Spring, Texas, United States
|
Have to sell my pride and joy due to medical bills (braces are not cheap!). This is a 1984 Buick Century Limited Estate Wagon with the rare 4.3 V/6 diesel engine. Loaded with Power Windows, Power Locks, New A/C (R134a),New Power Antenna, Factory AM/FM Radio, Tilt, Cruise, Rear Window Defogger, Map Lights, Fold Flat Rear Facing Third Seat, and Luggage Rack. This was the first year GM produced this FWD Station Wagon. It was purchased new at Mack Brown Buick in Boone, NC. As best I can tell I'm the third owner. The vehicle is in very good condition. It's black with woodgrain exterior and plush cloth maroon interior with woodgrain dash and door panel trim. Some of the woodgrain (shelf paper) is peeling. Has no rust. It runs and drives great! I have taken to some local car shows and did take it to The Pate Swap Meet at Texas Motor Speedway last year and got 31 mpg driving 75 mph. Everything works on the vehicle except the cruise control and front power door locks. Fuel gauge will stop at 1/4 tank. I've had "Woody" for about 2 1/2 years now. I did A LOT of reconditioning to the vehicle when I received it. LOTS of new parts. I have some rare extra parts to with the sale. Have all the original books and manuals. Will have new Michelin tires so it will not have the white wall tires pictured (but will go with vehicle). Registered as an Antique Vehicle with rare 1984 Texas personalized license plates. Clear Texas title in hand. Has just 118,556 miles. I have almost $7,000 invested (yes I'm crazy) in Woody. Email me with any questions you have. Clark Griswold said it would make the perfect "Christmas Vacation" wagon queen family truckster. Merry Christmas!

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
Consumer Reports says infotainment systems 'growing first-year reliability plague'
Mon, 27 Oct 2014The Consumer Reports Annual Auto Reliability Survey (right) is out, and the top two spots look much the same as last year's list with Lexus and Toyota in first and second place, respectively. However, there are some major shakeups for 2014, with Acura plunging eight spots from third in 2013 to 11th this year, and Mazda replaces it on the lowest step of the podium. Honda and Audi round out the top five. This year's list includes six Japanese brands in the top 10, two Europeans, one America and one Korean.
Acura isn't the only one taking a tumble, though. Infiniti is the biggest loser this year by dropping 14 spots to 20th place. Other big losses come from Mercedes-Benz with an 11-place fall to 24th, and GMC, which declines 10 positions to 19th.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it's not traditional mechanical bugs hauling down these automaker's reliability scores. Instead, pesky problems with infotainment systems are taking a series toll on the rankings. According to Consumer Reports, complaints about "in-car electronics" were the most grumbled about element in new cars. Problem areas included things like unresponsive touchscreens, issues pairing phones and multi-use controllers that refused to work right.
Buick shows off new Ultra Luxury Interior for LaCrosse
Sun, 27 Apr 2014The options sheet of the 2014 Buick LaCrosse gets all kinds of fancy with the addition of the Ultra Luxury Interior. Pointing its Tri-Shield logo at the world of haute luxury, the cabin treatment combines sangria leather with ebony accents, shadow tamo ash wood trim and a microsuede headliner to "drive fashion forward."
You'll need to start with LaCrosse models with the 3.6-liter V6 and either the Leather, Premium or Premium II trims to go all Brioni and Buckingham on the cabin, and the privilege package will run you $2,495. We're told that you won't find such contrasting hues anywhere else in the class, though, and that kind of exclusivity might make any price a bargain.
You can find more information on the Ultra Luxury Interior in the press release below, along with some intensely fashion-foward gobbledygook.
