******EDIT******I WILL DELIVER THIS WAGON TO AN AIRPORT NEAR YOU FOR A FULL PRICE OFFER. I know buying on ebay is tough because of shipping cars so want to make this as convenient as possible for a potential buyer. I'm not driving to CA (although I wish I had the time to do so) but am willing to make a day trip and fly home. Also shows I trust this car to get me there :) Hopefully you live somewhere cool like NYC and I can make a weekend out of it. Email me with any questions or if you want to work something out. 

This is one of the nicest examples of a late-80's all original wagon you will ever find. Extremely low mileage for the year: 74,500.

The original white paint shines on this Buick and the woodgrain sides are in great condition. Easily cruises down the highway at 75 mph with no rattles, shakes, or loud road noise. The cabin is quiet, the radio sounds fine, and all the speakers work. 

My kids absolutely love riding in the rear-facing backseat of this car with the window down. When your kids sit in the "very back" and you realize how quiet it is in the front, you'll wonder why they ever stopped making them like this. And yes, we've been compared to the Griswold's :)

The only reason I'm selling this classic is because I have one too many cars and can't bear to sell my Bronco (I justified purchasing the wagon thinking I could). 

You'll attract plenty of attention from people at gas stations and friends who say they had one "just like this growing up!" You'll also get a lot of smiles and "thumbs ups" on the road. 

Please see my condition description above. Nearly everything works on this Estate Wagon just as it did in 1987. To my knowledge, it has every available option from that model year, including the two-way tailgate (swings open or lays flat like a pick-up), climate control, and power locks and driver seat. The air conditioner will absolutely freeze you out. The heat works as well. 

In case you missed it in the condition description, I want to be clear about the following: the very rear light needs a bulb, I can't get cruise control to engage (although the light comes on), and the rear driver's side door sometimes doesn't lock when you press the power door lock from the driver's seat. 

Everything else works as it should. The switch on the dash raises or lowers the rear window. You can also lower the back glass by turning the key in the tailgate. Includes brand new windshield wipers and new hydraulics to hold the huge hood open. 

This wagon belonged to an older lady who always kept it garaged. When she passed away, a local(ish) car collector bought it from her estate because it was identical to the one his wife's dad drove while he was still alive. She began to avoid it because of the reminder of her father so he put it up for sale and that's who I bought it from. It hasn't disappointed in any way. I wish I could justify keeping it but I can't. 

Local buyers are welcome to come look it over or take it for a test drive. Email me any questions and I'll get back to you. 

I've never shipped a car but I'd be glad to assist in any way possible. $500 is due within 24 hours of a winning offer. 

Please check out the pictures and don't let this one get away!

J.D. Power: Mini, Lexus again offer most satisfying sales experience

Thu, 29 Nov 2012

JD Power has released its annual Sales Satisfaction Index Study, and once again Mini and Lexus have taken top honors. Overall, buyers are more satisfied with the auto-buying sales experience than they were last year, with those surveyed reporting an average score of 664 points on a 1,000-point scale. That's up from 648 in 2011. Dealer satisfaction also increased by five points over last year as well.
All told, Lexus brought home an index score of 737, which was high enough to put it atop the luxury brands for the second year in a row. JD Power says Infiniti came in second in that category with a score of 728 and Cadillac rounded out the podium with it's rating of 725. Speaking of Infiniti, that brand saw the single largest jump in sales satisfaction of any brand on the survey, popping up 52 index points over 2011.
Among mass-market brands, Mini ranked highest with a score of 712, followed closely by Buick with 706 and GMC farther down the line with 683. You can check out the full press release below for more information.

2018 Buick Regal's base price is almost $2,500 cheaper than last year's

Wed, Jul 19 2017

Along with the launch of the Buick Regal GS, Buick released official pricing for all three versions of the Regal, and they're very competitively priced, especially the Sportback. The part-sedan, part-hatch Regal Sportback starts at just $25,915. That's more than $2,000 cheaper than the previous generation 2017 Buick Regal sedan, which started at $28,385. Along with the savings in cost comes a standard turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder making 250 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque - 295 pound-feet with optional all-wheel drive. That's a significant step up from the standard naturally aspirated engine in the previous-generation Regal that makes just 182 horsepower and 172 pound-feet of torque. The new Regal's hatch also provides more flexibility for loading cargo, and the cargo space expands from 14.2 cubic feet in the old model to 31.5. View 12 Photos The TourX wagon, or crossover depending on your opinion, comes with a $4,000 premium over the Sportback, with a base price of $29,995, matching what was revealed last month. It gains only about an extra cubic foot behind the rear seats, but with the seats folded, it has 73.5 cubic feet to play with. It also comes with standard all-wheel drive and the engine with 295 pound-feet of torque. Plus, it has the added ride height and plastic body cladding that gives it the same trendy look shared with the Subaru Outback, Volvo V60 Cross Country, and Audi A4 Allroad. It is a few thousand more than the Outback, but it undercuts the Volvo by roughly $10,000 and the Audi by almost $15,000. Then, for performance, there's the Regal GS. It starts at $39,990 and has a 310-horsepower V6 and standard all-wheel drive. It also features all of the versatility of the regular Regal Sportback. All-in-all, the Buick Regal line seems to pack a lot of value, at least on paper. Related Video:

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners

Sat, 30 Mar 2013

The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
