Condition: I would say it is in very good condition. It has the tiniest amount of rust from its first 2 years in the NE. Both bottom corners of the doors have a little rust, also, the corners of the trunk underneath the rear window, have a small amount of rust. One of them has been rigged with a plastic bag so that water does not seep into the trunk. The other side is not leaking. There is some pitting on the chrome components in the engine bay. The car was sitting in a carport for 8 years in South Florida so the paint is not in the best condition. The owner had it fixed about a year ago to get it running again. It had ran fine when he parked it 8 years ago, but not so much 8 years later. The fuel injection system, ignition, and fuel injectors had to be replaced, a new battery was added, and the gas tank was removed, cleaned, and resprayed. He has put about a thousand problem free miles since then. There is one small crack in the dash from the sun. There are absolutely no stains, burns or tears whatsoever on the seats, carpets, door panels, trunk carpet, or any other interior surface. The pictures don't do it justice because of the light, but interior is in tip top shape. Everything works, AC, Radio, Turn signals, lights, windows, etc. It is in need of a very minor cosmetic restoration to get this to concours quality.

Features: If you are intending to do a full restoration, we have the original rims available for a nominal fee.

History: The vehicle was originally owned by the current owners Sergeant from Vietnam in the NE. He bought it after he had had it for a couple of years and the vehicle was relocated to South Florida from the NE. He had it parked in a carport for the last 8 years, and it ran fine when he parked it. To get it running again, he had the fuel injection system, battery, ignition system and injectors replaced. The gas tank was removed, drained, cleaned, and resprayed.He has put about a thousand trouble free miles on it since he got it running again, he also put new Michelin tires on it. He held onto the vehicle for sentimental reasons, but is retired now, and the car is just not practical for him anymore. I wanted to do the full restoration and try to get high retail for the vehicle or send it to the Barrett Jackson Arizona auction, but he does not want to put any more money into it and wants to sell it as is.

Shipping and Payment: Buyer responsible for shipping arrangements. Cashiers check, cash, or money order are acceptable forms of payment, as well as paypal. Potential buyers can come visit the vehicle during the auction period, please contact me if you wish to do so. The vehicle is located in the Pinecrest-Dadeland area of Miami.

A Nice, New Buick Aims For Middle Of The Road
Any time someone describes some portion of a car or a driving experience as being "nice," I want to either A) throttle them or B) run as fast and as far as I can from that vehicle. "Nice" is among the most insidious words in the English language - at best it's vague, and at worst, it conveys the exact opposite of its literal meaning. Yet it seems to be used with damnable frequency when it comes to verbally illustrating vehicles. "It looks really nice," or "These seats feel nice," or, heaven forefend, "It's got a nice ride," are all windy signifiers of absolutely nothing resembling a concrete opinion. "Nice" is the adjectival equivalent of meekly smiling and nodding your head.
Of course, I'm as guilty as the next person of having thrown English's least powerful descriptor around. There's even a chance that, rant aside, you'll catch me making nice in reviews to come. That's fine, but you should know that when you stumble upon such usage, past or future, that you've found a sentence in which I'm simply applying a bare minimum of effort to the task.

Hyundai, Buick dealer apologize in wake of Chinese baby social media incident

Sat, 09 Mar 2013

A very strange story out of China today, as Hyundai and a Chinese Buick dealer were forced to face allegations of using allusions to an infamous child murder on a social media site as a way of promoting the safety features of their respective vehicles.
The original sad tale goes something like this: On March 4, a man reported to police that he had left his infant child in a running Toyota RAV4 while he ran into a supermarket briefly. When he came back out, the vehicle and the child were gone. Later in the week a suspect turned himself in to the police; confessing to them that he had stolen a sport-utility vehicle, strangled the infant that was in it, and then buried the child in the snow.
As you might imagine, the gristly incident was covered massively in the Chinese media. (There was huge public outcry as well, as evidenced by the vigil scene, above.) "Changchun baby abduction" was very quickly amongst the highest ranking search teams of the China's Weibo social media site - an equivalent of Twitter in the English-speaking world.

Opel Cascada close to getting green light for US

Fri, 13 Sep 2013

For a company with a long tradition of grand touring convertibles, it's almost unseemly that General Motors doesn't offer a properly relaxed four-seat convertible in North America. There's the Chevrolet Camaro, of course, but it's not big on rear-seat space and it doesn't offer that sort of serene demeanor that many open-air buyers crave. We're thinking of something more refined and, dare we say, elegant. Something a bit closer to the Opel Cascada.
The General's front-wheel drive convertible went on sale in Europe this year, and while it seemed like a natural fit for its Buick brand in America, it's never been sold here. That may be about to change, however. Back in June, CEO Dan Akerson hinted he'd like to see the Cascada available in the US, and now there's word from Edmunds that importation "could happen soon." That's according to an unnamed insider at the company.
It's almost unseemly that GM doesn't offer a relaxed four-seat convertible.
