Step back into 1987 and go down to the local Chevy dealership and pick out this Yellow Beige Caprice Classic Brougham. That is what it feels like you are doing when you see this car. This GM classic is an absolute TIME CAPSULE! It is a 2 owner North Carolina car its entire life. Garaged, preserved, and pampered! Let me tell you the story about this beautiful Caprice. I am a diehard Cadillac fanatic, with a passion for the full sized Fleetwood Broughams and Eldorado's. Owning a few classics, I can appreciate this low mileage Caprice. My relationship with this car began about a month ago. I was traveling from Massachusetts delivering a vehicle my sister (who lives in NC) purchased from me. (I am a car dealer by day) I planned to drive down, and rent a cheap car and drive home. Planned being the key word. Before the trip started I found out this Caprice was just traded in at Bob Murray Chevy in Raleigh NC for a new Chevy, and was going to wholesale auction with all the other dealer trades. While I was down in NC I attended this dealer only auction, to check this dream machine out. It was like a rose in a garden of weeds, waiting to be plucked, taken home and cared for just as the first two owners have done. Since you are reading this, you know I couldn't resist. I purchased it, and drove it home to Massachusetts almost 800 miles! All trouble free driving, smooth, strong and comfortable! She ran like a top!! And got almost 24MPG!! Well since I have a 2 car garage, and have to rent space for my other cars, as soon as my soon to be wife saw this one she said "It or me!" So here we are. I need to find this sweetheart a new home. (the car, not my fiance) This Caprice would make a car guy like me a great Sunday cruiser, collectors car, or investment. The car starts, runs, drives like new. It looks amazing in its rare color combination, and is LOADED with options! They include AG2-SIX WAY POWER PASSENGER SEAT AG9-SIX WAY POWER DRIVERS SEAT AM6-SADDLE CLOTH 55/45 SPLIT AU3-POWER DOOR LOCK SYSTEM A01-TINTED GLASS A31-POWER WINDOWS A90-POWER TRUNK OPENER B34-FRONT FLOOR MATS B35-REAR FLOOR MATS B48-DELUXE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT TRIM B84-BODY SIDE MOUDLINGS B93-DOOR EDGE GUARDS CD4-INTERMITTENT WINDSHIELD WASHER SYSTEM C49-ELECTRIC REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER C60-AIR CONDITIONING D64-ILLUMINTATED RH VISOR MIRROR D68-TWIN REMOTE SPORT MIRRORS F41-SPORT SUSPENSION K34-ELEC.

It was owned by its first owner up until 2005 with 28k accumulated miles in High Point NC. It was then owned by the last owner, from 05 until traded at Bobby Murray Chevy this Feburary with 46k miles. I purchased this car under my dealership, and the new owner will be the 3rd owner. I have a clean and clear North Carolina title. The car comes with 2 original GM sets of keys, factory floor mats (great shape), owners manual, wire wheel lock key, and the orignal window sticker. It is completely rust free! The pictures will tell the story. No rust under door edges, trunk edges or on the chassis. The vinyl top is crisp and soft, and still retains its true color, showing it has been garaged. The chrome and bright work is just that, BRIGHT. The seats and carpets still have that thick pile to them. I do not believe they have ever been shampooed. There are some minor defects I will list. Power antenna stoped working when I shut it off after my 800 mile trip. It worked fine before. It is in the up position. some light stone chips on the mirrors (pictured), small crack in dash pad on the drivers side top corner point (under 1 inch, see photos), silver trim in the horn pad has a small section missing (see photos), some paint wearing off the dash under the radio and on the shifter column band (see photos), some small pits in the top face of the rear bumper. Not rust, just little dots in the chrome. Tires are a matched set of Michelin's with 80% tread, they are older tires and have some dry cracking in the tread. This did not concern me driving 800 miles home. I replaced the 10 year old battery with a brand new one. Radiator hoses look newer. This was a non smokers car. The defects I listed are me being over critical. This is a used car, a 1987 model year. Check out the photos, I took close to 140 pictures, including the undercarriage. Any questions feel free to email me, or you can call me. Anthony, at 978-930-1004. Please keep in mind I am in the EASTERN time zone. I will not like you much if you call me at 1 am, please keep calls from 8am-10pm EST. The car will be selling to the highest bidder, no reserve. I do not have a set price in mind. A $500 deposit via paypal within 48 hours, remaining Payment to be cash in person, or wire transfer. Car will not leave until payment is clear. I will export this car, and help in any transport to do so (Paid for by you). I will also help arrange shipping within the USA. If you want to fly in, and take another road trip in this car, I will pick you up at Boston Logan Int air port and get you on the road. Massachusetts does NOT issue temp plates, 20 day plates, or any other plate to put on the car to drive it home to wherever you may live. You must bring some sort of plate with you if you plan on driving home. The mileage may increase slightly as we welcome test drives. Dont make the same mistake I did, make sure the wife will allow you to have this car, make sure the bank you keep your money in has the funds to pay for it too! No reserve, last bidder wins! The car is located in Billerica MA, and has only been here for a few weeks. The car has not been driven to preserve its salt free history.  photo 87caprice2001_zps5c55451f.jpg  photo 87caprice2002_zpsa1b30985.jpg  photo 87caprice2003_zps72f30a8d.jpg  photo

Old Car or New Car? 1993 Chevy Camaro vs 2015 Honda CR-Z

Wed, Sep 30 2015

My daily life revolves around used cars. As a former fast-talking auto auctioneer, it was once my job to inspect, appraise, and liquidate thousands of cars throughout the United States. Since I put down my microphone and became a full-time car dealer, I have gone from auctioning off 150 vehicles an hour – yes, we really do talk that fast – to buying 150 vehicles every two to three months. I see and bid on everything from $300 Volkswagens that belch more black smoke than a diesel truck rolling coal, to $30,000 DeLoreans that hopefully can go at least 88 miles per hour. The auctions never run out of weirdness when it comes to cars because they sell over 10 million every single year. So with that big number in mind, let me tell you about these two cars that have about as much in common as Mel Gibson and Mel Brooks.Option A: 1993 Chevrolet Camaro Indy 500 Pace Car Edition View 24 Photos This 1993 Chevrolet Camaro Indy Pace Car has all of 4,187 miles on it. Neither of those numbers are a misprint and yes, those are multi-colored stripes on the hood. Every week, I find at least two or three museum pieces that have been stored in the private garage of an auto collector. As you can tell, there are some very broad strokes to the definition and tastes of a collector. It could be a guy who has an extreme case of what I call "Automotive Compulsive Disorder" who chucks 20 or 30 old cars into a field and lets the weather and elements have at them. I once knew a guy, a car dealer at that, who "stored" seven 1990s Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme convertibles in the Georgia sun, and within two years those cars turned into complete junk. The fact that he stored them in an open field he didn't actually own and near a public road didn't help either. A few of the local meth heads and kleptocrats decided to strip-mine his collection, from the radiators to the tops themselves. He had a brief time in prison in between the before and the surprise after and trust me, he looked like he had soiled his britches when he saw what happened to his personally prized Cutlasses. Then you have whoever owned this Camaro. Is it a one-of-a-kind? Nope. Just 1 of 125, and an insignificant number at that (#87). But let's open the door to this Camaro and see what we find. Oof! I don't remember this multi-colored silly string design as a '90s must-have. Wasn't this popular back in the 1980s?

GM follows up Lambda CUV stop-sale with tire recall

Mon, Feb 9 2015

In late January, General Motors announced a stop-sale for about 6,281 examples of the 2015 Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave because of the possibility for the treads cracking on their 18-inch Goodyear Fortera HL tires. At the time, GM said that this would also eventually lead to a safety campaign to repair the problem, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has just published those details. GM's recall covers 5,876 of the three Lambda platform crossovers to replace their tires. According to NHTSA, if the treads crack, there could be a loss of pressure and possible failure. Goodyear already announced its own recall of the tires after internal testing found small tread cracks. The company did not believe this was safety issue, but the problem did put the rubber out of compliance with federal laws. The business's safety campaign covered an estimated 48,512 tires. Of those, around 32,000 were reportedly made for GM to either be fitted to vehicles or sold as replacements. The remainder went to the aftermarket. Goodyear's portion of the recall is expected to begin around February 20. RECALL Subject : Tire Tread Cracking/FMVSS 110 Report Receipt Date: JAN 28, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V044000 Component(s): TIRES Potential Number of Units Affected: 5,876 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) BUICK ENCLAVE 2015 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE 2015 GMC ACADIA 2015 Details Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2015 Buick Enclave vehicles manufactured December 9, 2014, to January 14, 2015, 2015 Chevrolet Traverse vehicles manufactured December 9, 2014, to January 20, 2015, and 2015 GMC Acadia vehicles manufactured December 9, 2014, to January 16, 2015, and all equipped with Goodyear P255/65R18 Fortera HL tires. These vehicles are equipped with tires that may experience tread cracking. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 110, "Tire Selection and Rims and Motor Home/Recreation Vehicle Trailer Load Carrying Capacity Information for Motor Vehicles with a GVWR of 4,536 kilograms (10,000 pounds) or Less." CONSEQUENCE: If the tire treads crack, a loss of tire pressure and possible tire failure may result, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the tires that were manufactured within a specific date range, free of charge.
