******EDIT******I WILL DELIVER THIS WAGON TO AN AIRPORT NEAR YOU FOR A FULL PRICE OFFER. I know buying on ebay is tough because of shipping cars so want to make this as convenient as possible for a potential buyer. I'm not driving to CA (although I wish I had the time to do so) but am willing to make a day trip and fly home. Also shows I trust this car to get me there :) Hopefully you live somewhere cool like NYC and I can make a weekend out of it. Email me with any questions or if you want to work something out. 

This is one of the nicest examples of a late-80's all original wagon you will ever find. Extremely low mileage for the year: 74,500.

The original white paint shines on this Buick and the woodgrain sides are in great condition. Easily cruises down the highway at 75 mph with no rattles, shakes, or loud road noise. The cabin is quiet, the radio sounds fine, and all the speakers work. 

My kids absolutely love riding in the rear-facing backseat of this car with the window down. When your kids sit in the "very back" and you realize how quiet it is in the front, you'll wonder why they ever stopped making them like this. And yes, we've been compared to the Griswold's :)

The only reason I'm selling this classic is because I have one too many cars and can't bear to sell my Bronco (I justified purchasing the wagon thinking I could). 

You'll attract plenty of attention from people at gas stations and friends who say they had one "just like this growing up!" You'll also get a lot of smiles and "thumbs ups" on the road. 

Please see my condition description above. Nearly everything works on this Estate Wagon just as it did in 1987. To my knowledge, it has every available option from that model year, including the two-way tailgate (swings open or lays flat like a pick-up), climate control, and power locks and driver seat. The air conditioner will absolutely freeze you out. The heat works as well. 

In case you missed it in the condition description, I want to be clear about the following: the very rear light needs a bulb, I can't get cruise control to engage (although the light comes on), and the rear driver's side door sometimes doesn't lock when you press the power door lock from the driver's seat. 

Everything else works as it should. The switch on the dash raises or lowers the rear window. You can also lower the back glass by turning the key in the tailgate. Includes brand new windshield wipers and new hydraulics to hold the huge hood open. 

This wagon belonged to an older lady who always kept it garaged. When she passed away, a local(ish) car collector bought it from her estate because it was identical to the one his wife's dad drove while he was still alive. She began to avoid it because of the reminder of her father so he put it up for sale and that's who I bought it from. It hasn't disappointed in any way. I wish I could justify keeping it but I can't. 

Local buyers are welcome to come look it over or take it for a test drive. Email me any questions and I'll get back to you. 

I've never shipped a car but I'd be glad to assist in any way possible. $500 is due within 24 hours of a winning offer. 

Please check out the pictures and don't let this one get away!

2013 Buick Enclave

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

GM's Flagship Lambda Is (Still) A Smooth Operator
Consumers shopping for a domestic full-size crossover have heard all about GM's triplets. The Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave are a very appealing and talented group of siblings. Entering their fifth year of production, albeit middle-age in the automotive industry, each is attractive, well-rounded and very capable on the paved dance floor. While all share nearly identical base DNA and the same basic running gear, subtle physical differences and unique personalities emerge between the trio when one digs a bit deeper.
The most polished of the threesome, without question, is the Enclave from Buick. Fresh off a mid-cycle update (as are its siblings), the flagship of the platform boasts a facelift, innovative new features and an upgraded demeanor for the new model year.

GM recalling 1.5M cars in China for faulty bracket

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

General 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.

GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.
