Hello & Welcome!
Up for auction is my AS-IS Bronze 2000 Buick LeSabre Limited that is nearly fully loaded and looks great. First off, we'll start with the back story! We've owned it since March 2011, it ran perfectly for the first 2 years, but more recently we've had quite a few repairs totaling over $3,000 to hopefully get it going for another 100,000 miles. Had a new Radiator installed, New Water Pump, New Starter, New Plenum, New Control Arms w/bushings, A few New Belts & Hoses, New Floor Matts, New Goodyear "Eagle RX" Tires that currently have only about 1,000 miles on them, and probably a few other things. All parts were NEW, not refurbished or salvaged and we wouldn't have spent this much money if we didn't expect to keep it..... BUT, a few days after a trip to Long Beach at the beginning of February we noticed a sputter and the engine had lost a lot of power. Had it towed to the dealership and they said: QUOTE FROM SERVICE PAPER - "CHECK/ADVISE ENGINE RUNNING VERY POORLY? FOUND 80% LEAK DOWN PASSED RINGS & EXHAUST VALVE. LOTS OF MILES CYL HEAD NOT A LSTING FIX, CUSTOMER DECLINED REPAIRS. RECOMMENDED TRADE IN". Why we declined repairs?? Because their "repair" was to replace the engine at a cost of approx. $5,000! This is a great car and I firmly believe that if you are mechanically minded, you can have it running again with little more than time committed. For us to pay someone for their time at $100+ an hour just isn't feasible though. The car has a beautiful bronze metallic paint with chrome rims that were part of Buick's "performance package" though two "cover caps" are missing. It's fully loaded with almost every option this model year offered, including: Twilight Sentinel (light sensor auto dimming for instrument panel lights & headlights), Power Seats & Power Lumbar, 2-Driver Memory Seats & Mirrors, Remote Trunk Release and Trunk Lockout, Anti-Theft Alarm, Power Windows, Tilt Wheel, Electronic Day/Night Rearview Mirror w/Compass, Illuminated Visor Vanity Mirrors w/ Dual Sun Visors, 3 Auxiliary Power Outlets, Front Center Console with rear seat Air Vents, HomeLink Garage Door Opener, Computerized Driver Information Center, Dual Climate Controls, Steering Wheel Controls, AM-FM Stereo w/cassette & CD Player with automatic tone control, Cabin air filtration, Theater Dimming Lights, and probably a few other things. I'm even including for the winning bidder a few extras that belong to the car, like a dashboard cover, a spare set of floor mats, an extra bottle of brake fluid, bottle of antifreeze, spare light bulbs, etc. And of course all of the service papers & receipts. Think this has always been a So-Cal car and don't believe it was ever in an accident or flood. Now for the bad stuff, obviously the engine is in need of repair, having been left alone for a couple weeks the battery is dead, there is a chip in one tail light, the steering wheel shows wear (like someone was scratching at the top), there is a crack to the leather in the drivers seat (though I have tried my best to make them supple again), a couple light "shopping cart" dents & a scratched bit of paint to the bumper in front of the front tire on the drivers side (see photos), and the drivers side vanity mirror broke off somehow, but is included. You can just use the additional dual visor though! Anyway, the car is being sold "AS-IS" with no warranties expressed or implied. 
We welcome anyone who wants to see this LaSabre and since we work from home the time would be at your convenience. Please contact us with any questions through the eBay "Ask Seller a Question" button & we'll get back to you as soon as possible (usually less than a few hours). We live in Hemet, CA, not far from Palm Springs & Temecula.
Thank you for Looking!

Buick version of Equinox/Terrain CUV spied testing... with autonomous gear?

Wed, 12 Jun 2013

Let's get the most pressing bits of this story out of the way right off the bat: What we see here appears to be a new compact crossover from Buick. According to the spy photographer, this machine may be a little bit smaller on the outside than the current Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain 'utes, which makes sense since recent rumors suggest GM's small crossovers will migrate to a new platform that will mark a convergence between the automaker's Delta (Chevy Cruze, Buick Verano) and Theta (Equinox, Terrain) platforms. This Buick would likely use this new D2UX platform.
We've been expecting Buick to unleash a crossover to slot between the very small Encore and the very large Enclave, and various rumors have indicated that the model may be known as either the Anthem or Envision. It's worth mentioning that Buick had planned, back in 2009, to release a vehicle in the compact CUV market, but abandoned those plans after a particularly poor reception.
And now for something completely different... Take another look at the spy shots above, and pay special attention to the cylindrical device mounted to the vehicle's roof. We can't say for sure what it is, but our spy photographer opines that it looks quite a bit like the 360-degree Lidar camera equipment used by Google for its autonomous cars. Is General Motors working with Google on autonomous car technology? We don't know, but you can definitely consider us intrigued.

Biden's tariffs likely won't impact Americans already driving Chinese-built cars

Thu, May 16 2024

A 2024 Buick Envision Sport TouringGM-DESIGN Chinese car brands are missing from the US market, but Chinese-made cars are still sold in the US.  Americans bought more than 104,000 Chinese-made cars in 2023 and nearly 28,000 in Q1 2024. Buick, Lincoln, Polestar, and Volvo all sell cars in the US that are made in China.  Of the more than 15 million cars sold in the US last year, none wore the badge of a Chinese car brand. Chinese EV heavy hitters like BYD and SAIC are conspicuously missing from US showrooms. With the government's existing 27.5% tariffs on Chinese-made cars and Tuesday's new 100% tariffs on Chinese-made EVs imported to the US, the situation isn't likely to change anytime soon. What some people might not realize, however, is that tens of thousands of cars manufactured in China are sold in the US every year. Volvo's S60L sedan was one of the first Chinese-made cars to be sold in the US starting in 2016, followed by Buick's Envision SUV and Cadillac's CT6 Hybrid. According to Automotive News data, US consumers purchased more than 104,000 Chinese-made vehicles in 2023, up 45% from 2022. Americans bought another 28,000 Chinese-made cars during the first quarter of 2024. Currently, Buick, Lincoln, Polestar, and Volvo sell Chinese-made vehicles in the US. Of those, the only Chinese-made EVs come from Polestar, a brand co-owned by Volvo and its parent company, Geely Automotive. The EV brand imported just 2,217 cars in the first three months of 2024. It is unclear how the new tariffs will affect Polestar's future production plans. The company eventually plans to move some of its car production to South Carolina in 2024. In a statement to Business Insider, a Polestar spokesperson said the company is evaluating the Biden Administration's announcement. Here's a closer look at the Chinese-made cars on sale in the US. Buick Envision A 2024 Buick Envision AvenirGM When it launched in 2016, the Buick Envision compact SUV was one of the first Chinese-made vehicles sold in the US. The second generation Envision, which arrived in 2021, continues to be made in China at one of the plants GM operates in a joint venture with SAIC. The Envision was Buick's second-best-selling model in 2023, with more than 44,000 vehicles sold. Last year, Buick sold 167,000 vehicles across its entire lineup in the US, an impressive 61% increase over the previous year. However, this number pales in comparison to Buick's sales in China, which totaled 517,000 units last year.
