BODY
As you can see in the pictures the condition of this vehicle is needing some TLC on the body. This car needs body work but is overall a very solid vehicle. It is missing or has cracked plastic body fillers all the way around the car. The 1/3rd leather top needs replacing. Some paint chipping, dent on roof. but as you can see in the picture the paint still shines. Headlights fuse box needs replacement because headlights do not turn on. car is fully functional other then the head lights. New transmission, two new front tires, i have all hubcaps still. new tail pipes seperated to dual exhaust but not tru dual just a splited muffler, may have exhaust leak, gas tank in great shape no soft spots. clear title. chrome pitting and has some rust, as well as front bumper offset a bit. overall solid drivable vehicle. Starts every single time first turn. motor in great shape, a very easy carburated car to work on. Air ride adjustable with air compressor.
Interior
As you can see in the pictures the interior is in pretty good shape for the years. Seam teers on leather and driver seat completly worn out the leather, pictures due the justice. the rear seat is in excellent condition as well as the carpets are in great shape for the year. it was an everyday car and for that i rate the interior overall pretty good for a car over 25years old that was a daily driver. all power every thing , with premium speakers and alpine stereo aftermarket, all sound works great. The headlight system needs some work maybe a fuse? i dont know but i cant get them on.
History
The reason this car leather top and driver side so rough is it was next to a garage that had a garage fire. which caused the damage, of the paint and roof, this car was not in the fire but close enough for the high heat to reach it. i have owned it now for almost ten years, so i know alot about the vehicles running condition so feel free to ask any questions. Like i said it was a daily driver. does have a viper alarm systen installed. Little rust solid car check engine light on.
Milage
I dont know exact milage. it has rolled over and at one point stopped counting until i got it fixed.
Shipping
I will not provide shipping for this car, that is all on the buyer, local pickup only, no warranties and being sold as is with no returns.
Please note this car is over 25years old and in need of TLC but is a solid vehicle being sold as is.

GM to offer 2 years free maintance on most 2014 models
Thu, 06 Jun 2013A day after Ford announced it was scaling back the complimentary maintenance program for its Lincoln brand, General Motors has gone in the completely opposite direction, offering most of its 2014 lineup with free maintenance. Since 2011, Cadillac models have all come with a four-year/50,000-mile complimentary maintenance program, but Chevrolet, Buick and GMC vehicles will now come standard with free maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles for the 2014 model year.
The program will give vehicle owners and lessees free oil changes, tire rotations and 27-point inspections following the recommended maintenance schedule laid out in each vehicle's owner's manual. We contacted GM to see which vehicles were eligible for the program, and a spokesperson got back to us with the following comment:
"All 2014 models are eligible, it's just that the included services vary by model, e.g., Spark EV would not need oil changes, Corvettes don't recommend tire rotations."
Why Buick's Encore wasn't a Chevy
Wed, 31 Oct 2012Buick is taking a gamble with its 2013 Encore. General Motors' near-luxury brand has enjoyed great success attracting conquest buyers to its larger Enclave crossover, but it has never offered something quite like this small CUV.
Very early signs suggest that the gamble might be working. According to Mark Reuss, President of General Motors, the automaker expected about 1,500 initial orders from its dealers for the Encore, but it's tracking closer to 9,000 units. Alluding to the fact that historically, Buick has shared similar products with GM's other brands, Reuss says that Buick dealers are "thrilled to have an exclusive." The automaker already markets almost identical models in other markets as the Opel/Vauxhall Mokka and Chevrolet Trax, but The General's other brands won't offer a twin to the new baby Buick.
The new Encore is based on the Gamma architecture that underpins the Chevrolet Sonic, and it shares the economy car's available turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine. With standard front-wheel drive and available all-wheel drive, GM says its Encore will be pitted against competitors like the BMW X1 and Audi Q3, both of which are much more expensive but also much more powerful.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
