This 1991 Regal Limited is like new! You really have to see to believe. 22,500 miles I am adding a few miles daily. I aqcuired the car from the estate of the elderly owner who is now deceased. I still have the one owner title from new. The headliner and the velour around the doors is as new. the armrests on the doors and in the center look to have never been used. All the window switches look new and the cruise control/wiper/turn signal stalk look as new. I pulled an autocheck and it confirms a one owner with no accidents and no odometer fraud. It still has what I believe to be 3 of the original Goodyear Invicta (discontinued) tires. It has one replacement Michelin Rainforce (also discontinued). the spare is original and looks to be never used. the original floormats have mats over them and they look excellent as well as the carpet and leather. Everywhere you look the car looks like 22k miles. The car is how I bought it. Very clean but not detailed. Notice no "armor all" on tires and such. I like to leave engine bays as is. No cover ups.
The car has a new battery and alternator. all fluids look good. Clean and clear transmission fluidFresh oil change. All power options work and the power antenna still works!! Radio does not sound to good tho but it works. The heat and a/c seem to work fine as well as all other functions. Cruise and guages work. I did notice the fuel gauge waivers, but works otherwise. no smoker. no paintwork. all vin numbers are on the panels. Oh and it has the 3800 v-6 which I think was an option over the standard 3100. It runs and shifts like a new one should. It does not leak a drop of oil and sounds great. Its Just a great car! email or call and leave a message if you have specific questions. Thanks and feel free to make an offer!
The car is 22yrs old so there are a few minor nicks and dings..I found 3 tiny dings around the body and 2 nicks around driver door handle..The driver seat looks new except for high on the seatback it looks like someone got in the car with something sharp in their back pocket..It looks like a "scrape" in the leather. I have a pic if someone wants me to email it to them. The handle to open the hood on the inside of the car broke off in my hand! oops! But you can still release the hood with whats left to pull.
If the buy it now is met I will put a new set of tires on the car. Private sales in Ga do not require tax if the car is sold and picked up before March 1st 2013....Gotta love new laws
See videos below of the car taking a drive. I have the window down in the first few seconds so listene for the noise difference. And take a look at the turn signal stalk and see how it shows ZERO wear. this car is so cool!

A little about me...I am 40 yrs old and a car freak. I currently have 4 cars and a Vespa! It a hobby of mine for the past 20 yrs. I have bought, owned and sold probably 30 cars in my life. I am not a dealer but I am currently going thru the process to become one in a few months. I specialize mostly in old Mercedes diesels and old Volvos. However I love anything older American that has low miles or at least 1 or 2 owners. I recently sold a 1993 Lexus that WE had actually had since it was new for under $1000 but I have also sold a 1985 Mercedes 300d for $13000 so I have some eBay experience. I also sell Masters Golf tickets every year with great feedback so I am a very good seller to deal with. Please feel free to email me with ANY questions or comments. I appreciate them! Thanks Joe

The Regal is being outfitted with a complete new a/c system!! After some further servicing of the car my mechanic discovered the a/c clutch was on its way out so I have given the go ahead to make it all new again. This is close to $1000 worth of additional work. I wanted this Buick to be the best one you can find for the money and the mileage. So keep in mind while bidding this car has a new battery, alternator, complete a/c compressor, drier and related parts. This will be one nice Regal for the new owner..Thanks

Automakers' sound systems: Crank it, don't yank it
Thu, Jun 21 2018Years ago, one of the first things most music lovers did after buying a new vehicle was drive to an aftermarket stereo shop to get the crappy stock components swapped for better gear. And you'd typically get not only better sound but also more bang (and boom) for your buck. But in the past decade or so, the overall quality of OEM audio has dramatically increased, while car electronics became more complex, removing the incentive for most new vehicle owners — and all but the most hardcore DIYer — to start from scratch. In 2010, I did a comparison of the average costs for OEM electronics vs. similar offerings from the aftermarket, and back then automakers' stock premium systems were by far the best bargain — and are probably an even better value now. The premium 14-speaker, 1,200-watt JBL system in the all-new 2019 Toyota Avalon is a prime example of this trend. It's standard on the top two Limited and Touring trims and is available as a $680 audio upgrade on the XLE and XSE. I doubt you can even buy 14 speakers and 1,200 watts of amplification from the aftermarket for 700 bucks, much less have it all installed. And because the system is bundled with Toyota's Entune infotainment system, Apple CarPlay and a surround-view camera, removing the head unit means you would likely lose these features. Another advantage of OEMs and their audio partners is they can design the car around the audio system. In the past, automakers would typically place speakers where convenient for packaging, not for optimal sound reproduction, and audio engineers were forced to compromise. But as with the Avalon's premium JBL audio system, this is starting to change. At a recent behind-the-scenes peek for media into the process of developing the system, Toyota and Harman engineers delved into the minutia of sealing the inner panel of the front doors to create an enclosure for 6x8-inch woofers, making space in the pillars for JBL horn tweeters and extensively measuring the acoustic properties of the interior to tune the sound to the space. I'm met some creative and skilled car stereo installers, but none with a degree in psychoacoustics. The system is also the first to feature Quantum Logic Surround that creates a multi-channel listening experience from two-channel sources. And it includes Harman's Clari-Fi processing that "rebuilds key details lost" in compressed audio formats used by streaming music services and MP3s.
2014 Buick LaCrosse updated with new styling, tech
Mon, 25 Mar 2013Buick might have one of the smallest lineups among major automakers, but by the time the 2014 model rolls around, it will definitely have one of the freshest. Debuting at the New York Auto Show this week, the 2014 Buick LaCrosse receives numerous styling changes inside and out, and it benefits from many of the same new features found on closely related models like the Cadillac XTS and the 2014 Chevrolet Impala.
Exterior changes are relatively minor, but they still help give the car a fresh, new look. The new face of the 2014 LaCrosse fits in with recently new or redesigned Buick models with its oversized waterfall grille, LED-trimmed headlights and the signature hood vents being moved to the side of the hood rather than the top. Similar changes have been made to the rear, like the reshaped LED taillights, the full-width chrome trim and a new fascia design; LaCrosse models equipped with the 3.6-liter V6 will still get the integrated exhaust finishers but they're executed in a more stylish manner than the current model. Finishing off the exterior, new wheel designs are also being introduced, which will include bringing 20-inch wheels to the sedan's option list.
Inside, Buick redesigned almost the entire cabin to create a more luxurious and upscale appearance. The instrument panel is essentially carried over, but pretty much everything else has been redesigned and updated with the biggest change being to the driver's area. Dual eight-inch configurable displays make up the center stack and gauge cluster, while the overall number of buttons have been reduced from 17 down to just seven. The 2014 LaCrosse will also be offered with the next-generation IntelliLink, which receives many of the same enhancements as Chevy's latest version of MyLink adding better customization, improved voice commands and more features including Pandora. Additionally, new door panels, seat and center console complete the LaCrosse's interior redesign.
GM tells owners not to use SUV wipers due to fire risk
Sun, Oct 11 2015General Motors is recalling 31,685 examples of the 2016 Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, and GMC Acadia because a short circuit in the windshield wiper motor can potentially lead to a fire. Due to the danger, the company is asking owners not to use the wipers until the problem is fixed, according to The Detroit Free Press citing the Associated Press. A manufacturing defect in the wiper motor cover means that the electrical terminals can come into contact and cause a short. The part could "melt, smoke, or catch fire," according to a statement from GM. The company will get them fixed immediately, and dealers will replace the cover. If there's bad weather at the time the owner specifies to get the recall work completed, the automaker will come pick up the crossovers. Depending on parts availability, the automaker will supply a rental car for customers, as well. The issue was discovered at the factory. According to the company's statement, only 6,405 actually made it to customers, and they were notified immediately by overnight letter. The rest were in dealer stock. The affected crossovers carry build dates between August 18, 2015 and September 24, 2015. Of those, there are 29,295 in the US and 1,073 in Canada. GM Statement: General Motors has told the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it will recall approximately 29,295 2016 model year Chevrolet Traverse, Buick Enclave and GMC Acadia SUVs in the U.S. because the front windshield wiper motor may overheat when in use because of a manufacturing defect. In some cases, the front windshield wiper motor cover may melt, smoke or catch fire. The approximately 6,405 customers who have taken delivery of these vehicles were notified by overnight letter and are urged to contact a GM dealer as soon as possible to arrange a service appointment. These customers should not use the front windshield wipers until they have been repaired. If weather conditions prevent driving the vehicle without using the windshield wipers, GM will arrange to pick up the vehicle for servicing. If repair parts are unavailable, GM will provide a rental car at no cost until parts become available. The total population, including Canada, Mexico and exports, is approximately 31,685. About 25,280 of these vehicles are in dealer stock and will not be sold until repairs are made.
