1985 Buick Regal 87k Miles, Time Capsule Survivor, No Reserve, Like Monte Carlo on 2040-cars
Scotts Valley, California, United States
This is a true 2nd owner 1985 Buick Regal in great original condition. Every car has a story, this one was purchased new at Mistlin Buick in Modesto California as a surprise by Mr.Wheeler for his beloved wife Mrs Wheeler. This car was special ordered, power steering, power disc brakes, power windows, ice cold air conditioning, alloy wheels, working AM-FM cassette, and the list goes on. This Buick was her love, she never let anyone drive the car besides her husband. this car is all original and in near excellent condition. It has been sitting in a climate controlled garage since new hence the stunning condition. Its an awesome garage find. Since in our possession we went through the entire vehicle to insure reliability in preparation for being a reliable daily driver, so everything was rebuilt and or replaced to insure reliability. Even if it didn't need replacing, we replaced it as we wanted it as close to mechanically perfect as possible.With the prices of Grand Nationals skyrocketing, these are becoming more sought after. This is an Excellent Blue Chip investment. Its an absolute pleasure to drive and gets tons of looks, thumbs up, and compliments everywhere we go. The car has only 87k original miles no wrecks or funny stories. It just passed California Emissions better than a new car as per the smog technicians statement. The spare tire has never been on the car, the trunk is mint, as I was told nobody ever sat in the back seat as Mrs.Wheeler didn't have any kids or grandkids of her own.This Buick is a real attention getter and a blast from the past thats only gong up in value, its an excellent blue chip investment. When ordered new, it was special ordered with the alloy wheels which really sets the car apart from others. We invested over $4000 including a rebuilt transmission, all new tune up, all hoses, belts, fuel pump, rear main seal, oil pan gasket, rebuilt ice cold air conditioning and nice warm heater, it even has the original windshield! all work was performed by a certified retired Buick technition and the transmission and converter were just professionally rebuilt less than 1500 miles ago with a warranty. All the work performed to the car was to insure the car was in proper working order. As we never planned to sell. It needs rear bumper fillers which is easy and common fix which is just cosmetic. The paint is not perfect but has a nice patina to it. The dash, original OEM GM floor mats are near perfect as well. Please understand this is a original unrestored almost 30 year old classic. Its currently registered and ready to enjoy. Never been modified, lowered, etc.You will be HARD PRESSED to find a nicer one than this one. NO RESERVE, high bidder wins! Thanks and good luck. World wide shipping is available. Look forward to assisting the new buyers in a smooth transaction. We have a Clear California title and can assist with overseas buyers. Thanks and good luck. Please note: the mileage will increase as I'm driving the car daily, thanks.

Opel Insignia, the harbinger of a Buick, rolls out at Geneva
Tue, Mar 7 2017GM's sale of Opel/Vauxhall to French automaker PSA Groupe will take effect later this year, but new models roll out regardless, as Opel debuted its all-new 2018 Insignia flagship (and Buick Regal clone) Tuesday at the Geneva Motor Show. The midsize Insignia, which bears a great resemblance to a Mazda6, will come in Grand Sport and Sports Tourer (that is, a wagon - will Buick offer a wagon?). It is built in Russelsheim, Germany. As part of the GM-PSA deal, the two companies agree that PSA, maker of Peugeot and Citroen, will continue to supply some Holden and Buick models; Opel models form the basis for several of Buick's core products, including the Encore small crossover and Regal sedan. But as the two brands part ways, we may well see Buicks remaining Buick-y, and Opels evolving away from GM parts and designs. Seeking a little clarity on what the sale of Opel means, we asked Buick and were directed to a statement: General Motors announced an historic agreement to sell the company's Opel business to PSA Group. This is a major milestone and one that we believe will improve the business prospects of each company and deliver significant value to shareholders, customers and employees around the world. Buick and Opel have historically cooperated on a number of product programs. Buick products will not be impacted by today's announcement. We will continue to deliver our product plans with excellence and precision. Buick has delivered three consecutive years of record global sales, we are General Motors' second largest international brand, and we have built an excellent reputation for quality and customer service. The new products Buick will announce in 2017 will help us build on this momentum. The new Regal/Insignia is expected to use the same platform as the new Buick LaCrosse, which is also shared by the Chevy Malibu and Impala. They should once again be available with front- or all-wheel drive. With the Opel versions debuting at Geneva, the Buick Regal will possibly follow at the New York auto show in April. The Insignia will start at about $25,500 and has the now-customary roster of high-tech options such as active lane keeping, a heads-up display, 360-degree-vew cameras, a hood designed to increase pedestrian safety and a new Opel OnStar Personal Assistant to help book hotel rooms on the fly or search for parking spots. The car comes with turbocharged four-cylinder engine options, an eight-speed automatic, and it's 400 pounds lighter than its predecessor.
2018 Buick Regal GS First Drive Review | More power, style and doors
Wed, Mar 7 2018During our test-drive of the 2018 Regal GS, Buick took us to Atlanta Motorsports Park and hired stunt drivers to teach us mild-mannered journalists how to do a J-turn. It's an emergency maneuver, also known as a Rockford, in which the car reverses at full speed, spins 180 degrees and takes off in the exact opposite direction from where it was headed. It symbolized perfectly Buick's hopes for the Regal GS, its most ambitious attempt yet at a bona fide American sports sedan. Buick is trying to shake off decades of stigma as a maker of grandpa-spec wafters. Since 2008, it has been rebadging the Opel Insignia, developed by GM's German subsidiary and built in Russelsheim, as the Regal. In 2012, Buick revived the Regal GS badge, providing power from a 2.0-liter turbo four, initially at 270 horsepower but then detuned to 259 hp in 2014 as AWD was introduced. Buick had high hopes of challenging the luxury greats, and while the previous Regal GS received good reviews as a genuine sports sedan, it never really caught on in the marketplace. Buick took a risk by redefining the brand, but ultimately, it wasn't quite successful enough to be uttered in the same breath as BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Lexus. The 2018 Regal GS doubles down on that lofty goal with a better-fleshed-out version of the outgoing car. It returns with improved styling and even more power, courtesy of a naturally aspirated 3.6-liter V6 generating 310 horsepower and 282 lb-ft of torque. In other words, the new GS is up 40 horses, but down 13 lb-ft with an engine that comes straight from the GM parts bin. Within GM, it is known as the "High Feature" engine, used in everything from Cadillacs to V6 Camaros to the GMC Acadia. Autoblog has knocked this engine on refinement but generally praised its power, so it's a mixed bag. On the Regal GS, though, the drivetrain exhibited a marked improvement on the refinement front. Buick spokesperson Stuart Fowle attributed this to the new nine-speed automatic it's mated to, a quick and smooth-shifting transmission well-programmed to keep the engine at optimal revs. The result deviates quite a bit from the Opel Insignia, which maxes out with a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four good for 197 horses and 300 lb-ft. With turbo 2.0-liter fours now the de facto entry-level engine for most luxury carmakers, having the 3.6-liter V6 makes the 2018 Regal GS more distinctive, a bit more American and less of a European copy-paste job than its predecessor.
GM recalls 3.6 million vehicles for airbag-software problems
Fri, Sep 9 2016The Basics: General Motors is recalling 3.64 million vehicles across its lineup for an airbag-related issue. The recall covers the 2014-2015 Buick LaCrosse, Chevrolet SS, and Spark EV; 2014-2017 Chevrolet Corvette, Trax, Caprice PPV, Silverado 1500, Buick Encore, and GMC Sierra 1500; and 2015-2017 Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, Silverado HD, GMC Yukon, Yukon XL, Sierra HD, Cadillac Escalade, and Escalade ESV. The Problem: Affected vehicles have a sensing and diagnostic module that controls the airbags and seat-belt pretensioners. The software it uses has a defect that can prompt the module to run a diagnostic test under specific driving conditions, which will also deactivate the front airbags and pretensioners. This means that it would be possible for those safety systems to not activate in a crash, potentially leading to injury or death. Injuries/Deaths: General Motors began an investigation that led to the recall after a 2014 Silverado was involved in a crash in which the airbags did not deploy. No information was given as to injuries or deaths. The Fix: Owners can bring their vehicles to a local General Motors dealer where a software update will be installed to fix the issue. The fix will be free of charge. If you own one: General Motors will contact owners of affected cars, and owners can check whether their vehicles are affected by visiting entering their vehicle identification numbers at either the GM Owner Center website or the NHTSA website. Owners can then schedule a time to have the update installed. Related Video:
