**Serious bidders and buyers only please ** If you bid, you own.Any offers below my Buy It Now will be deleted. Its too nice of a car to sell for a penny less. I have alot more invested, thanks for understanding.I Just drove 350 miles and it ran perfect with the air conditioning running I got 25 MPG at 65-70 MPH.You won't find a nicer 1985 Buick Regal Anywhere for the price I'm asking. Most of these cars have been beat and junked. This car drives soooo nice. I'm sad to sell but don't have the space to keep it. This car needs nothing but a driver.Be sure to read the entire ad description as I spent alot of time outlining all the details. Be sure to have ALL funds in place prior to bidding, thanks. This is a true 2nd owner 1985 Buick Regal in great original condition. Every car has a story, this one was purchased new at Mistlin Buick in Modesto California as a surprise by Mr.Wheeler for his beloved wife Mrs Wheeler. This car was special ordered, power steering, power disc brakes, power windows, ice cold air conditioning, alloy wheels, working AM-FM cassette, and the list goes on. This Buick was her love, she never let anyone drive the car besides her husband. this car is all original and in near excellent condition. It has been sitting in a climate controlled garage since new hence the stunning condition. Its an awesome garage find. Since in our possession we went through the entire vehicle to insure reliability in preparation for being a reliable daily driver, so everything was rebuilt and or replaced to insure reliability. Even if it didn't need replacing, we replaced it as we wanted it as close to mechanically perfect as possible.With the prices of Grand Nationals skyrocketing, these are becoming more sought after. This is an Excellent Blue Chip investment. Its an absolute pleasure to drive and gets tons of looks, thumbs up, and compliments everywhere we go. The car has only 87k original miles no wrecks or funny stories. It just passed California Emissions better than a new car as per the smog technicians statement. The spare tire has never been on the car, the trunk is mint, as I was told nobody ever sat in the back seat as Mrs.Wheeler didn't have any kids or grandkids of her own.This Buick is a real attention getter and a blast from the past thats only gong up in value, its an excellent blue chip investment. When ordered new, it was special ordered with the alloy wheels which really sets the car apart from others. We invested over $4000 including a rebuilt transmission, all new tune up, all hoses, belts, fuel pump, rear main seal, oil pan gasket, rebuilt ice cold air conditioning and nice warm heater, it even has the original windshield! all work was performed by a certified retired Buick technition and the transmission and converter were just professionally rebuilt less than 1500 miles ago with a warranty. All the work performed to the car was to insure the car was in proper working order. As we never planned to sell. It needs rear bumper fillers which is easy and common fix which is just cosmetic. The paint is not perfect but has a nice patina to it. The dash, original OEM GM floor mats are near perfect as well. Please understand this is a original unrestored almost 30 year old classic. Its currently registered and ready to enjoy. Never been modified, lowered, etc.You will be HARD PRESSED to find a nicer one than this one. Thanks and good luck. World wide shipping is available. Look forward to assisting the new buyers in a smooth transaction. We have a Clear California title and can assist with overseas buyers. Thanks and good luck. Please note: the mileage will increase as I'm driving the car daily, thanks.

Restyled 2014 Buick Regal adds AWD, Regal GS loses power
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Although the current Buick Regal hasn't even been on the market for very long, General Motors is using the New York Auto Show to unveil an updated version of the sedan in a similar fashion to what we saw yesterday with the 2014 LaCrosse. Like the LaCrosse, all 2014 Regal models will be getting a new look both for the exterior and interior design, but the big news takes place under the sedan's skin.
Except for the base Regal eAssist, the Regal Turbo and Regal GS will both be adding the benefit of all-wheel drive, but there is no word as to how much weight this system will add to each car's curb weight. The Regal Turbo's 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder has received a decent bump in output from 220 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque to 259 hp and 295 lb-ft; unfortunately, these same figures are carried over to the Regal GS, which means that car drops from 270 hp. Both turbocharged models (Regal Turbo and Regal GS) will now be offered with all-wheel drive and the ability of sending more than 90 percent of the engine's torque to the rear wheels.
In terms of styling, the 2014 Regal gets similar styling changes found on the updated Enclave and LaCrosse, including reworked fascias, scalloped headlights and a full-width chrome strip spanning between the new LED taillights. Inside, key changes were made to the Regal's cabin technology, such as the instrument gauge cluster and infotainment system. On the Regal and Regal Turbo, a new 4.2-inch color display is available for drivers to see information for the vehicle, navigation and audio systems, but the Regal GS' cabin is slightly different with an eight-inch configurable gauge display. One of the best changes may be the overall reduction in buttons on the center stack, creating a cleaner-looking and easier-to-use cabin.
J.D. Power study sees new car dependability problems increase for first time since 1998
Wed, 12 Feb 2014For the first time since 1998, J.D. Power and Associates says its data shows that the average number of problems per 100 cars has increased. The finding is the result of the firm's much-touted annual Vehicle Dependability Study, which charts incidents of problems in new vehicle purchases over three years from 41,000 respondents.
Looking at first-owner cars from the 2011 model year, the study found an average of 133 problems per 100 cars (PP100, for short), up 6 percent from 126 PP100 in last year's study, which covered 2010 model-year vehicles. Disturbingly, the bulk of the increase is being attributed to engine and transmission problems, with a 6 PP100 boost.
Interestingly, JDP notes that "the decline in quality is particularly acute for vehicles with four-cylinder engines, where problem levels increase by nearly 10 PP100." Its findings also noticed that large diesel engines also tended to be more problematic than most five- and six-cylinder engines.
2014 Buick Regal gets the party rolling in NY
Wed, 27 Mar 2013Although the first day of the 2013 New York Auto Show kicks off bright and early this morning, Buick got a jump on the competition by unveiling the 2014 Buick Regal lineup last night. While the Regal received many upgrades for the 2014 model year, most of our attention was focused on the sedan's drivetrain.
When the new Regal hits dealers this fall, buyers opting for the new Regal Turbo will be welcomed by an additional 39 horsepower and 35 pound-feet of torque from the 2.0-liter turbo engine; the 2014 Regal GS now features the same output of 259 hp and 295 lb-ft, meaning that it has actually lost 11 hp over the 2013 model year. Buick says the reason for the GS' power loss comes from the fact that the newly available all-wheel-drive system forced the car to use a smaller diameter exhaust system, but representatives on hand assured us that the reduction of horsepower won't affect the car's performance and could even help improve fuel economy. And who knows? Maybe downgrading the power of the Regal GS also helps create a little breathing room for a future Grand National or GNX model...
Although the power under the hood is now the same, it is still impossible to confuse the two cars from the outside. Minor updates give both a fresher look, but the Regal GS has an unmistakeable aggression to it. The GS' interior also helps it stand apart from lower Regal trim levels with an eight-inch configurable gauge cluster similar to what is offered in the 2014 LaCrosse. The cabin of the Regal wasn't given an extensive makeover like the LaCrosse received, but the upgraded IntelliLink infotainment system and the cleaner center stack and steering wheel controls are appreciated changes.
