See many pics at: http://www.picturetrail.com/sfx/album/view/24542089 1989 Buick Electra Estate Station Wagon. This was a one-owner car until I bought it in 2006. Paint is glossy and smooth. Woodgrain is in exceptional condition with only a few minor nicks. All chrome and bright trim is in excellent shiny condition - no cloudiness, no pitting. Vinyl bumper fillers are all in great condition - and original - as this car was always kept garaged. Interior was never smoked in. Headliner is still in great shape. Runs and drives beautifully. Idles smooth. No leaks underneath. 5.0 liter 307 V8 engine - uses no oil. Automatic transmission shifts properly and works perfectly. No leaks. Needs nothing. Everything works - including the air conditioning, and power antenna (which I currently have unplugged to keep it from wearing out like almost all did). Loaded with almost everything available in 1989 - including the more uncommon options - like twilight sentinel, illuminated outside key locks, fiber optic light monitors on the top front fenders, and electronic automatic climate control. I added the Buick aluminum wheels with the small centers and exposed chrome lug nuts. Originally came with the wire spoke wheel covers - which I still have if you prefer that look. Tires are a matching set of 4 in excellent condition. Deep tread. Fly in, or Amtrak, or Greyhound - and drive home. I'm in Milwaukee, WI 53227. |

GM mulling Chevy Cruze hatchback for US, Buick 'Panamera' among other new models
Fri, 08 Nov 2013We've spoken at length previously about the fallacy of poor hatchback sales in the US, and with the runaway success of its Chevrolet Cruze sedan, it's somewhat unsurprising to hear that General Motors is rethinking its decision not to sell an overseas five-door variant in North America as it looks to plug a number of holes in its lineup. GM North American President Mark Reuss admitted during a media luncheon this week that not offering the model "... was a pre-bankruptcy planning mistake," says Forbes. With the next-generation model already well-along in development, it's likely that the current Cruze hatch (shown above) won't see US dealers.
Reuss admits not offering the model "was a pre-bankruptcy planning mistake"
In what must have been a far-reaching conversation, Reuss hinted at a number of new products for many GM brands, including "a much more beautiful Panamera" range-topper for Buick (which sounds a bit like the line of reasoning the TriShield brand has been pursuing with its Riviera concepts) and a "Ford Transit Connect-fighter" to supplant the recently announced badge-engineered Chevy City Express from Nissan.
2014 Buick Regal GS
Mon, 09 Sep 2013A few months ago I drove the 2014 Buick LaCrosse and wrote up a First Drive review of it. For all of my quibbles with that sedan (and I had a fair number), I understand that it speaks to the heart of what new Buick loyalists like in a car; it's roomy, has a cushy ride and is as placid as a summer's morning at highway speeds.
Those qualities, while undeniably desirable, don't mean a whole lot to me personally. I prefer sedans that conjure up words like "nimble," "punchy" or even "raucous" on occasion. So, directionally, the high-performance GS version of the 2014 Buick Regal is more my cup of tea than any other car in the company's current range.
In fact, I'd already come to know the Regal GS from its 2012 model year introduction, and grown more than a little fond of the sporting sedan in its original front-wheel-drive, six-speed-manual guise. The fast, sweet-handling car with well-sorted controls may have suffered from a slight identity crisis in terms of pricing (and may still), but it was undeniably fun to drive. So, when I heard that the GS was coming to market for 2014 with optional all-wheel drive (albeit only in combination with a six-speed automatic transmission), I was stoked to have another go and concentrated my driving impressions on the AWD car.
GM recalling 2013 Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac SRX over transmission software
Thu, 21 Mar 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued recalls for the 2013 Buick LaCrosse and 2013 Cadillac SRX due to a problem with the software for the transmission controller. On about 27,000 SRX and LaCrosse models, the transmission could accidentally be shifted to Sport mode, which would reduce the amount of engine braking drivers experience.
NHTSA says this could increase the risk of a crash, but, fortunately, the required fix is simply an update to the software.
While we're on the subject of General Motors vehicle recalls, a small number (48) of compressed natural gas versions of the 2011 Chevrolet Express are also being recalled for a potential risk of fire or explosion. Yikes. Both official recall notices are posted below.
