I thought that I would never ever sell this car, but things change. I am selling my dream 1987 Buick Grand National that is in mint condition with only 15,215 miles on it. It is all stock except for: newer high dollar show paint, newer battery, brand new headliner, brand new floor mats, brand new valve cover gaskets, chrome turbo cover, brand new GNX/GTA rims, tires, lug nut covers, and center caps. The only reason for the base/clear paint was because the original paint was checking as all Grand Nationals did. This paint job is better than the factory paint ever was. The paint and body are a strong 9.7 out of 10, and that is being picky. The interior is a a 9.5 out of 10 only because it is not a brand new car. Never smoked in. Interior still smells new. Body has NO rust at all and never has. Everything works except for the A/C. It just needs a recharge. I have the original rims with all of the original caps and lugs. The rims even have the original tires on them still. The rims would need to be re-chromed to be in show condition. The previous owner stored them in his musty basement and they have some surface rust. The only other flaw in the whole car is the driver side window weather strip that runs diagonal and vertical has a tear in it.
My car runs, drives, shifts, and handles just like it did when it came from the factory as a new car. It is 99% stock and still has the factory 1987 exhaust system. It has never been beaten, raced, crashed, or pushed beyond its limits. It has been a show car and weekend toy its whole life. Always kept in a climate controlled garage and stored properly during the winter. Look at all of the pictures. You can take my car to your favorite car show as it sits. It is fully detailed and just waxed with Pinnacle wax (the best you can buy). If you are in the market for one of the nicest Grand Nationals under $25,000 in the country, this is it. This very rare, low mile, stock, investment quality, beauty would look incredible in your garage...wouldn't it???
Note: I still owe a few dollars on the loan that I used this car as collateral for. The title is at my local credit union, and can be easily obtained. If you have any questions or would like to see the car in person, just e-mail. Thank you for looking.

2014 Buick LaCrosse steps up to the big leagues with plenty of luxury
Wed, 27 Mar 2013Following the introduction of the updated 2014 Buick LaCrosse and Regal, the oldest vehicle in Buick's lineup will be the Verano, which was just introduced last year. Having such a fresh product mix bodes well for Buick as it tries to create a new image in the US, and after checking out the amount of luxury being stuffed into the new LaCrosse for 2014, GM's awkwardly positioned brand may finally have the ability to stand out.
Granted, the model unveiled was the all-new, top-of-the-line Ultra Luxury Interior Package, but this package brings top-notch leather and soft suede covering everything above the beltline as well as real ash wood accent trim throughout the cabin. While there was no mention of price, we don't expect this model to come cheap in terms of what we expect from Buick, although it will likely be competitively priced with similarly equipped rivals like the Acura TL or Lexus ES. Adding even more to the LaCrosse's interior, dual eight-inch displays make up the gauge cluster and center stack, and the number of buttons on the center stack have been greatly reduced, creating a cleaner look for the instrument panel.
Another big change is the next-generation of Buick's IntelliLink infotainment system that brings with it all of the recent enhancements of the Cadillac CUE and Chevrolet MyLink systems. Differentiating itself from other GM infotainment systems, the new Buick IntelliLink stands out by allowing users to customize the apps they can add and not just being limited to what GM sees fit.
Next-gen LaCrosse, Cascada convertible coming to Buick showrooms in 2016
Wed, 23 Jul 2014It's difficult to overstate how significant the post-bankruptcy years have been for General Motors' Buick brand. Arguably the most improved American automaker, Buick has rounded out its range with an excellent compact in the Verano, a well-balanced midsizer in the Regal and a segment-busting mini-CUV, with the Encore.
Seeking to keep that momentum going, the next several years will see the brand address a trio of its most obvious issues. First and foremost will be a replacement for the aging LaCrosse, a vehicle whose only bit of attention since its 2009 debut was a very light refresh in 2013.
According to Automotive News, we should expect the next-generation LaCrosse to arrive late next year or early in 2016, as a 2016 model. AN expects big design changes, as Buick attempts to further the LaCrosse from its popular platform-mate, the Chevrolet Impala. The changes won't be so radical, though, as to do away with its front-drive architecture, as the latest version of the Epsilon platform will underpin the next LaCrosse. The 3.6-liter V6 is likely to carry on, although a smaller, budget-minded offering is also extremely likely (we'll eat our hat if it's not the 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder from the Regal, Verano and Cadillac CTS et al.).
GM announces six new recalls, covering 3.5 million vehicles
Mon, 16 Jun 2014General Motors has just initiated another crushingly large recall, this time affecting some 3.36 million vehicles built between 2000 and 2014 and sold in the US, Canada and Mexico. Once again, the issue surrounds the cars' ignition switches, which can be kicked out of the run position if they're carrying extra weight or if they experience a "jarring" event. In this particular case, though, GM will modify the keys, rather than the ignition itself.
A four-by-six-millimeter hole will be drilled into the key, which will more safely accommodate the weight of the key ring. As is usually the case, the work will be done free of charge. The recalled vehicles include the 2000 to 2005 Cadillac Deville, 2004 to 2005 Buick Regal LS and GS, 2004 to 2011 Cadillac DTS, 2005 to 2009 Buick Lacrosse, 2006 to 2008 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, 2006 to 2011 Buick Lucerne and 2006 to 2014 Chevrolet Impala. Only the Impala is still in production, and even then, it's only sold to fleet companies.
According to an official statement from GM, there have been eight crashes and six injuries due to this latest issue. As if this isn't a dire enough blow for GM, the company has announced five smaller recalls, covering 165,000 vehicles.
