Extremely rare 1979 Buick Riviera S-Type Turbo Model. This is an all-original car with only 49K miles! Only a couple thousand of these were made with BOTH the rare S-Type package AND the factory V-6 Turbo engine - even fewer with this GREAT color combination of white with red sport interior and factory red pinstripes!
As an "S-Type", the exterior has black accents on the rocker trim, window trim and grill, along with special "S-Type" badging. The S-type interior has a special center console (opens for your 8-tracks), black accents on the dash, sport steering wheel, and special bucket seats. This particular car is finished with the eye-catching red interior. As a car equipped with the factory V-6 turbocharged engine, the exterior has special "turbocharged" badging.
This car is equipped with power windows, power door locks, cruise control, AM/FM 8-track stereo with power ant. (all components working!), factory wire wheels, and air conditioning (blows COLD).
The car was a one-owner car until last year and had regular service. Many recent new parts, including brand new radiator, new shocks, new wheel bearings/brakes, new engine mounts, and newer tires. Runs and drives great.
The body is in fantastic shape - all original paint (except driver door was resprayed at one point and could stand to be redone for show, rear fillers were replaced/painted, and various areas have touch up paint from over the years), no dents/rust (except some minor surface spots on the same part of the driver door that was resprayed down above the rocker panel), original chrome (with some hazing). The interior is in BEAUTIFUL condition with only minor wear on the front seats (as shown), some fading on the back of the front seats (the plastic part that can easily be redyed), and headliner was reglued on one side in past (the black spot on the front carpet in one of the pics is just a piece of dirt I should have picked up - not a hole/spot in the carpet).
Please ask all questions before bidding. All shipping arrangements are buyer's responsibility, although I am happy to make the car available for any transporter after full payment is received. The car is sold as is/where is with no warranties express or implied so please feel free to ask any questions/come drive it. This is NOT a 100 point perfect museum piece and is not being held out as such but is a super rare, original collector car in beautiful shape that is over 30 years old so not perfect. Thanks!!

2013 Buick Encore
Mon, 10 Dec 2012City, Slicker
We admit it. We have no earthly idea how this whole thing is going to shake out.
Typically, after driving a new car or truck, we come away prepared to hazard a guess as to whether said model has a good chance of being a sales success. We've amassed enough time watching the industry, scrutinizing the competitors, and so on, to make a reasonably educated bet. Yet here we are, days removed from driving the new 2013 Buick Encore, and we still have no bloody idea.
GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
