1985 Buick Riviera Luxury Coupe 2-door 5.0l V-8 on 2040-cars

Year:1985 Mileage:28274
Location:

Santa Ana, California, United States

Santa Ana, California, United States

This car is sharp in black with a dark window tint.  The Upholstery is blue cloth.  The engine is a solid and reliable 307 V-8 coupled with a recently serviced automatic transmission with overdrive.


The Registration has been paid through July of 2015. 

It has Power Steering, Power Seats, Power Windows, Air Conditioning (which currently needs work), Tinted Glass, Newer Tires, Awesome Wire Wheels and a 12-cd changer in the trunk.  It has new shocks all around (air shocks in the rear), so the ride is very smooth.  The headliner is in perfect condition, no sagging

The Odometer says 28,274 but real mileage is probably 128,274.  The engine always starts, idles and runs well.

Issue areas: The paint is high gloss and beautiful, but there are some small chips in it, probably from gravel, mainly on the trunk lid.  The vinyl roof is worn and could either be removed or be replaced inexpensively.  The A/C recently stopped working, I think there is a hole in the line.  The Gas gauge is not working, but I can drive 200 miles before needing a fill-up and have never run out of gas - I just use the odometer.  The blue dash cap has been cracked by the sun but has been covered with a black rubber topper, which looks fine as-is or can be replaced if you desire.

You can use this car to commute every day or make it a hobby car for weekend jaunts.  Either way, you won't be disappointed.  This car is available for viewing in Lake Forest, California.  I will work with any shippers that you contract with directly.  Once released to the shipper, I cannot be responsible for any damage that may occur.

Of course, being almost 30 years old, the car does not come with a warranty and is being sold as-is, with no returns.  You are more than welcome to test drive it and have it inspected by a mechanic before purchase.

I will accept cash, personal check, money order, cashier's check, wire transfer or straight deposit.  Possession and title transfer upon bank confirmation of funds.  If you have any concerns, we can use an escrow service. 

Please feel free to ask any questions you may have.  Thank you for your interest.

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.

2015 Buick Verano gets styling tweak, loses 6-speed manual

Fri, 06 Jun 2014

Well, all good things must come to an end. For 2015, the Buick Verano's experiment with a manual transmission will cease, as the American manufacturer has announced it will discontinue the 6MT in the turbocharged version of its compact sedan. According to Buick, the take rate on the Verano Turbo 6MT was (unsurprisingly) low, leading to its discontinuation.
That's not the only bit of news for the Verano, though. After a few years on the market, Buick has seen fit to refresh the popular sedan. The visual changes aren't huge, really, with subtle tweaks to the headlights and taillights. We'd bargain that the average passer-by wouldn't notice a difference between the two.
The main aesthetic change is a new appearance package, available on the mid-range Convenience and Leather option groups. Unimaginatively called just that - Appearance Package - it offers up a new paint color, Desert Dusk Metallic, as well as a grille treatment and a rear spoiler. The new package is, however, limited to naturally aspirated models.

Next Buick Regal to inherit styling cues from Opel Monza concept

Mon, 06 Oct 2014

Ever look at a concept car from a foreign auto marque like Opel and wonder what relevance it will have to you as an American consumer? Well, we'll tell you: at least as far as the Opel Monza concept goes, it could mean a lot.
Speaking with Automotive News at the Paris Motor Show, Opel chief Karl-Thomas Neumann said, "You will see the Monza when you see the next Insignia." And the Insignia, we needn't point out, is essentially ported over to American showrooms as the Buick Regal.
The relationship between the Regal and Insignia only stands to grow closer as Opel design chief Mark Adams has also been charged with tightening the bonds between the two automakers positioned on opposite shores of the Atlantic. Adams also intends to imbue the next Insignia with more "premium brand values" in order to "add polish to the brand." Which in turn means that the Regal will be designed to look more upscale, too.
