Click here for My Car Hobby Home Page Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon! 1994 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon. 5000 Miles, as new in every manner down to belts, tires, hoses. Put away new as a museum collector and possibly the finest Roadmaster Estate Wagon on earth. Beyond being the last of the RWD full size/full frame GM Cars, the final year 94-96 Roadmaster Wagons came equipped with the famed LT1 Engine. Yes, you can call this a "muscle" wagon as it is. The Impala SS/Cadillac Brougham/Roadmaster left a lasting impression on the American Car Culture being the final full size cars, and with the addition of the LT1 engine, they are still talked about today. The good ones have earned their way into the collector realm. Not many people saved these cars though, as they did drive so good and were very reliable, they got used up. With a total wagon production of about 20,000 from 94-96, not many of these exist in good condition today. The similar platform Impala SS, many were saved. Not so much for the lower production and more costly Roadmaster Wagon. The "skywagon" (glass roof wagons) were a bit of Americana going back for years ending with these cars. Many of us took family trips in the back of similar cars from the 60s and 70s. Sitting in that 3rd seat looking backwards as a kid was something pretty neat to behold. Although these cars were big for their day, they are not big enough today to combat modern SUV collisions.... so that is what took their place... Heavier, bigger and less efficient vehicles.... yep, totally backwards but re-marketed from "station wagon" to SUV to make it all "ok" for you to justify. Although there were many neat Skywagon GM cars, I would say the LT1 wagons of 94-96 would be the one Clark Griswold and his family wish they had vs that family truckster ford. I think Clark could have achieved a much longer jump in one of these! This Example goes a step beyond in collectability as it is a RPO V92 Gran Touring/Trailer Towing Package car. With this option, a ton of hidden hardware was added giving the car things not all had. This package gave you the F40 HD Suspension with the auto leveling, the HD Cooling with the large belt driven engine fan (notice most do not have this), Aux Engine Oil Cooler, Aux Transmission Cooler, Posi Trac Rear end, Higher capacity radiator, Higher Output Alternator, larger rear brakes. This option was said to be able to tow 7000 Lbs. But what it does without towing is make the car drive like a dream. There is nothing "boaty" about a car optioned like this. It handles like a dream and simply is powerful. Only way to have one. The rare 96 Brougham I have also has this option. Even harder to find in those. This car is also loaded with the Prestige Package, Leather, Full size Matching Alloy Spare, Remote Entry, Rare "Sungate" auto tinting front Windshield, 3rd Seat, Heated Remote Mirrors, Auto Door Locks and more. All that is neat but again means nothing unless its combined with being perfect, brand new and in museum condition. CLICK ANY PHOTO FOR AN EXTREME BLOW UP!

GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say
Fri, 05 Apr 2013The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles
Tue, 06 Aug 2013General 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.
Opel Cascada close to getting green light for US
Fri, 13 Sep 2013For 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.
