SELLER REMARKS

The last of the big Buick convertibles, this 1970 Buick Electra offers all the right ingredients to make it a first-rate hobby car: big horsepower, lots of options, great colors, and just two owners from new. The fact that it's also very reasonably price only puts icing on an already delicious cake.

Sold new in Dallas, Texas on April 22, 1970, this awesome Buick remained in the same family until 2011, when the original owner's widow sold it to the current owner. She obviously loved the car and over the years it has been extremely well maintained. The long, straight bodywork shows off a dramatic character line that was a Buick trademark for many years, and the look is both imposing and a bit sporting. The color is correct code 26 Stratomist Blue Iridescent, applied two years ago and showing well today. The bodywork underneath was clearly very nicely preserved and the doors fit well, the hood sits flush, and there are no signs that this car was ever rusty or abused. Plenty of chrome defined Buick's luxury models, and this convertible certainly qualifies, with a nicely integrated bumper/grille combination up front and a wide chrome bumper out back. The owners loved this car so much that a new front bumper emblem was custom made (repros don't exist) when the original was stolen.

Aside from a reupholstered front bench seat, the interior of this big Buick is completely original. The tan upholstery is a nice change from the usual white you'd find in convertibles of this vintage, and as a Buick, it's loaded up with features. Factory options include A/C, power windows, a tilt steering column, and a power front bench seat, with a few accessories like the leather steering wheel wrap and center console with cup holders just to make it a little more practical. There's a ton of stretch out room in back, making this the ultimate parade vehicle, but with a 455 under the hood, the driver gets his share of entertainment, too. The gauges cover only the basics, but everything's clustered in front of the driver so it's easy to find and use, including the factory AM/FM radio that still works like it should. The white power convertible top is simply too nice to be original, and includes a glass rear window and matching tan boot for when it's stowed. And like all great original cars, the trunk has no secrets and carries a full-sized spare with cover.

Buick's 455 cubic inch V8 was a torque factory that generates effortless performance in the big Electra. Rebuilt in 1996, it doesn't look like a show piece but originality matters and in that regard it's quite good. You can still see Dante Red paint on the engine itself and the original air cleaner with '455-4' decals clinging to its surface. The TH400 3-speed automatic transmission was rebuilt in 2011, the A/C was completely overhauled and converted to R134a in 2014, and it carries a new fuel pump, sway bar bushings, tie rod ends, rear wheel bearings, and master cylinder, so it's ready to cruise. The dual exhaust system has a mellow sound that's entirely appropriate to a big luxury cruiser like this, and the undercarriage certainly looks the part of a car that comes from a warm, dry place. New 235/75/15 whitewall radials were installed in 2013.

Documented with the original bill of sale, Protect-O-Plate, and restoration receipts, this is a fantastic full-sized convertible that needs no excuses. Big, comfortable, and surprisingly fast, it's everything you'd expect from Buick's finest. Call today!

First 2013 Buick Encore TV ad features... dinosaurs

Thu, 14 Mar 2013

The whole "SUVs as dinosaurs" trope has become something of a threadbare cliché among auto writers, but that doesn't mean the wider world of consumers has caught on to the Jurassic nature of our line of thinking. That's what General Motors appears to be betting on, at least. Just check out Buick's first television spot for its 2013 Encore, the tiny crossover that is pushing the Tri-Shield into territories unknown while looking to outrun the brand's reputation as a refuge for elderly clientele.
Set to air this weekend on ESPN during the NCAA college basketball tournament, the ad plays up the Encore's maneuverability and surprising interior space by setting the baby Buick amongst a herd of lumbering CG dinosaurs created by Tippett Studio, the folks behind Hollywood blockbusters like Jurassic Park, Ted, and the Twilight series of films.
We can't help but snigger a little - while the Encore is indeed surprisingly roomy, nimble, and composed, our first drive found it to be glacially slow, too... not unlike a certain prehistoric race of animals. Check out the commercial below and judge for yourself.

How to hack a Buick Regal with CarKnow

Thu, 08 Aug 2013

If you own an Apple iPhone or Android device, perhaps you've been tempted to jailbreak or root it. This process gives you access to the the software's code, and can be used to make minor or drastic changes to its operating system. CarKnow, a company in Boston, is working applying a similar concept to the automobile.
Translogic recently took a look inside CarKnow to see just how it can tweak the computers inside a car and what sort of things can be done. As our transportation tech sister site explains, CarKnow basically created a digital duplicate of their Buick Regal in the cloud, while harvesting data generated to create custom apps and infiltrate the deepest function of their test car.
And before you freak out about people maliciously taking over your car, CarKnow's founder, Josh Siegel, stresses that it isn't quite so easy as driving up alongside someone. Take a look at the full video below to see just what it's like to jailbreak a car.

Buick Riviera Concept debuts in China

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

It's nighttime in China, and Buick has just concluded an evening event the day before the first - and only - press day of the Shanghai Motor Show. The star of this evening's party was the Buick Riviera concept vehicle, a plug-in electric hybrid coupe that the automaker says gives a glimpse at its future design direction, not to mention resurrecting some nomenclature from the brand's history that includes a similarly named concept from 2007.
The shape of the Riviera is said to be inspired by water. While the traditional Buick "waterfall" grille is present, the front end gains a more aggressive note thanks to what appear to be vertical air inlets below each headlight.
As for the concept's drivetrain, Buick says it uses General Motors' new dual-mode wireless plug-in hybrid electric vehicle propulsion system, or W-PHEV for short. The keyword there is 'wireless,' as the Riviera can charge its onboard battery packs with a traditional cable or wirelessly via a "sensory recharge panel" underneath the car.
