I bought the car in December of 2004 from the original owner here in Alabama. AFAIK it has been garage kept its entire life.


Exterior: Paint quality is in great condition with the occasional pits and scratches as one can expect on a black car with this amount of miles. I have replaced and repainted the front plastic fender fillers between the quarter panels and bumper. The rears while in good condition could stand to be replaced as the plastic has faded. Tires are BFG Radial ta’s with 235/60/15 front and 275/50/15 rears with 90% tread left.


Interior: Mostly stock. I just recently replaced the headliner with a ABS unit from gbodyparts.com. I have added the following gauges. Scanmaster, boost gauge and caspers knock gauge on a dual A-pillar mount. The original owner cut out some plastic covers for the t-tops to keep the interior cool and prevent the sun from damaging the interior. I have also added the following trim pieces from www.buickgn.com: Turbo 6 full cover door pullstrap screw covers, Grand National Intercooled seat hinge overlays, Grand National Intercooled door sill plate, reproduction horn ring(to replace the cracked factory piece) along with a Grand National Intercooled horn button overlay.

Buick Envision to go on sale in third quarter of 2015

Mon, 06 Oct 2014

Following an earlier concept and successive teasers, Buick revealed the new Envision crossover a little over a month ago. The thing is, it was launched in China, for China. The question, then, is whether it will make the jump to the North American market. And the answer is: quite possibly.
According to division sales chief Duncan Aldred in speaking to Edmunds, Buick is looking into the prospect of bringing the Envision to the US: "We can't confirm anything, but clearly it is a very nicely designed and executed product that is very much a Buick," said Aldred.
If and when the compact crossover would appear in US showrooms, it would slot in between the smaller Encore and the larger Enclave. It would likely be offered in front-wheel drive, all-wheel drive and mild hybrid configurations. Sources expect it to arrive in the third quarter of 2015 as a competitor to the likes of the Mercedes GLA, Lexus NX and Lincoln MKC.

Buick shows US dealers 2016 Cascada convertible

Wed, 20 Aug 2014

The affordable four-seat convertible has become a largely forgotten genre in the States, especially with the death of the Chrysler 200 Convertible. Of course, there are still premium options from Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz - not to mention more overtly performance-oriented droptop pony cars from Chevrolet and Ford - but if you want an affordable cruiser, you're kind of out of luck. That may be about to change, however, with renewed rumors of the Opel Cascada (pictured above) making it across the Atlantic wearing a Buick badge.
According to GM Inside News, Buick showed off the Cascada to US dealers last week, with renewed word that the company plans to bring it over from Europe for the 2016 model year. The US version will reportedly be practically identical to its German cousin in terms of styling, but the powertrain underneath is less certain. According to GMI, it may use the 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that is available in Europe with either 168 horsepower or 197 hp.
The Cascada rides on GM's Delta II platform, which also underpins the Verano, and the latest rumor certainly provides even more evidence that the convertible is probably on the way. Speculation about the droptop started when GM CEO Dan Akerson said last year that the car was on his wish list to bring over. Then, the US trademark on the name was reserved earlier this year, and the release was speculated for sometime in early 2016.
