2,627K MILE ORIGINAL TURBOCHARGED BUICK GRAND NATIONAL

Grand Nationals that have not been modified and been kept in outstanding original condition are getting very rare indeed. How about one that has only 2,627K miles and has been kept original and pampered its entire life. The ones in this condition don’t come up for sale often. The market on these has been climbing making these GN's clearly collectible and desirable for all car collectors. Check out the Hagerty website on-line car value guide and you will see the value for GN’s increasing and GNX decreasing. This GN is outstanding and matching numbers in all aspects. It was an occasional driver and trailered to shows and never modified or driven hard. 100% stock and original.

There are some GN’s that are considered ‘lightweights’ by the GN collectors. These are cars did come with T-tops (that DOES NOT leak), NO power windows, NO power door locks, NO power seats, and NO cruise control. Very desirable.  This is one of those rare ‘lightweights’. I have never seen another with the T-top option as a ‘lightweight’. Simply put, original and very fast. It does have AM/FM stock radio and the G80 posi rear-end.

This Buick Grand National is sure to satisfy even the most discriminating 80’s muscle car enthusiast.

Mechanically:

This GN performs exceptionally - as new.  It is very quick and aggressive.  It needs no mechanical attention in its completely stock form.  New battery installed January 2014.  The AC unit needs to be recharged, minor detail.  The vehicle does not have a hint of rust. It is tight and handles and stops superbly.  It still wears its original tires that are not dry rotted or flat spotted.

Exterior cosmetics:

The black paint is original and looks great; the car has never been hit or been repaired.  The paint and body panels are exactly as it left the manufacturing plant in September 1987.  The GN’s only modification is the professional installation of side and rear window tinting.  

Interior cosmetics:

The interior is exceptional!  No wear, stains or cracks.  It smells like a factory new GN when you open the doors.  Never smoked in or mistreated in any fashion and no alterations from stock equipment have been made.

Special Note:

Vehicle comes with full ownership documentation, purchase & sales brochures, and the original sales agreement. Additionally, the GN comes with DUSTOP cover for maximum dust protection for indoor storage and with an exterior Weathershield car cover.  Even signed by Molly (now deceased) on the 20th reunion celebration for the Buick GN (in 2007)!  

As with all used collector cars this is sold as is and there is no warranty expressed or implied.  It is your responsibility to bid and purchase based only on your own inspection/examination of the vehicle and the facts.  Please feel free to contact me with your questions and with any assistance you might require in bidding or finalizing the sale.

A very reasonable reserve has been set for this magnificent vehicle!

Payment and deposit for this vehicle is to be by Wire Transfer or Certified Funds (cashier check).  The required deposit for this superb GN is $1,000.00 within 48 hours following the end of the auction and full payment is due within 5 days following the end of the auction.  Pickup and/or shipment is the sole responsibility of the buyer. IF THE TRANSACTION IS NOT PAID WITHIN THE TIME ALLOWED, I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO RETAIN YOUR DEPOSIT AND RESELL TO THE NEXT HIGHEST BIDDER OR RE-LIST THE ITEM.

Buick Envision spied fully disrobed in China

Wed, 27 Aug 2014

The Buick Envision crossover is supposed to have its big reveal on August 28 and be on display at the Chengdu Motor Show, but apparently the new midsize crossover just can't wait to meet its public. Car News China caught a completely undisguised example parking outside of the convention center where the show is held.
The Buick designers are going right down the middle with the styling with nothing too flashy to turn off potential buyers. Still, it's a handsome CUV that kind of looks like a stretched Encore from some angles with vents along the hood, a large greenhouse and a prominent crease running down the side.
This new midsizer is hitting the Chinese market first and reportedly rides on GM's Delta platform that's also found underneath the Buick Verano. According to Car News China, prices there are between 160,000 yuan and 220,000 yuan ($26,000 - $35,800 at current rates). However, it's also rumored to eventually make its way across the Pacific to give Buick buyers in the US an option between the Encore compact crossover and larger Enclave.

J.D. Power study sees new car dependability problems increase for first time since 1998

Wed, 12 Feb 2014

For the first time since 1998, J.D. Power and Associates says its data shows that the average number of problems per 100 cars has increased. The finding is the result of the firm's much-touted annual Vehicle Dependability Study, which charts incidents of problems in new vehicle purchases over three years from 41,000 respondents.
Looking at first-owner cars from the 2011 model year, the study found an average of 133 problems per 100 cars (PP100, for short), up 6 percent from 126 PP100 in last year's study, which covered 2010 model-year vehicles. Disturbingly, the bulk of the increase is being attributed to engine and transmission problems, with a 6 PP100 boost.
Interestingly, JDP notes that "the decline in quality is particularly acute for vehicles with four-cylinder engines, where problem levels increase by nearly 10 PP100." Its findings also noticed that large diesel engines also tended to be more problematic than most five- and six-cylinder engines.

Buick struggling to keep up with Encore demand

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

Buick is having a hard time keeping up with demand for its all-new Encore mini-CUV, according to a report from Automotive News. The stylish, lifted five-door went on sale in January, but dealers have reported that supplies have dwindled after the initial high demand, taking the proverbial "wind out of the sails."
General Motors admits that it underestimated demand for the diminutive Buick, which is built in Korea and sold as the Opel Mokka in Europe, where it's also seen success. Buick spokesperson Nick Richards told AN, "We increased production, so there have been a lot more landing within the last month."
Buick has done a booming business, though, even with its limited supply of Encores. With over 12,000 units sold in the first half of 2013, the small CUV is on pace to annihilate industry analysts' estimates, which predicted no more than 18,500 units in 2013. We're not entirely surprised. When we first drove the Encore late last year, Autoblog professed that we had no idea how sales would turn out, as the Encore wasn't really entering into an established segment. Even so, wefound a surprising amount to like in the Encore, enough that we "wouldn't bet against it" being a major success.
