Don't miss out on this incredible buy on a GORGEOUS, VERY DESIRABLE and COLLECTIBLE 1987 Buick Grand National!! 


If you have been looking for a very nice, pampered and well kept Buick Grand National with a "laundry list" of mild modifications then look no further. You can purchase this car for far less than what was spent on the upgrades (see photo of the document that outlines these in detail,  $12,600 NOT including the paint job). This incredible car comes with two sets of wheels (what you see in the photos are BRAND NEW Boss 338 18" wheels and Falken tires, less than 100 miles), the other, new re-chromed and powder coated factory GN wheels with new center caps and tires. It has a small door ding under the passenger side lock that happened in the body shop after being painted (very easy/inexpensive paintless dent removal, I just never had the time to get it done). The body is solid and straight with new paint with NO ROCK CHIPS. Even in turns the car was driven slowly so not as to "throw" any road debris on the rockers/rear quarters. It is extremely quick, but not abused and raced (no burn outs or "holeshots"). All work was professionally/tastefully done, no corners cut to save a "buck". The entire drivetrain has been enhanced to not only make it new, but to put a little more "pep in it's step" above and beyond what the factory offered. By no means is the a radical refresh, but rather a more dependable, peppier drivetrain. It has 72,000 original miles with only 3,600 miles on the enhanced drivetrain. Very dependable and QUICK. This Grand National not only has a very nice exterior, but interior as well (see photos). The car is equipped with T-tops, trunk kit, digital dash, new calipers/rotors.....the list goes on and on (please view the photo of the upgrade list). The car is sold "as is" with no written, implied or expressed warranty! I have great feedback and please feel to contact me (Brad) with any questions at 614-348-2079! I am selling locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early, thank you for looking!!

Buick Envision aces IIHS crash tests

Tue, Sep 27 2016

If you had any qualms about the safety of a Chinese-built car, set them aside. At least when it comes to the Buick Envision. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has tested the new GM crossover and it passed with flying colors. The Envision is the first Chinese-built Buick sold in the States, and it's also the first Chinese-built car the organization has ever tested. In what is an impressive feat for any new automobile, it earned the IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+ rating. This means the crossover comes equipped with a forward collision warning system and earned "Good" marks in all types of collisions, including the difficult small overlap crash test. In addition to the forward collision warning system, an automatic emergency braking system is available on the Envision. Eleven other vehicles earned the TOP SAFETY PICK+ rating, including models from Volvo, Lincoln, Acura, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, Lexus and Infiniti. That's good company, and combined with a pleasant, if not world-beating, driving experience, should make the Envision a car worth consideration. Related Video:

Consumer Reports says infotainment systems 'growing first-year reliability plague'

Mon, 27 Oct 2014

The Consumer Reports Annual Auto Reliability Survey (right) is out, and the top two spots look much the same as last year's list with Lexus and Toyota in first and second place, respectively. However, there are some major shakeups for 2014, with Acura plunging eight spots from third in 2013 to 11th this year, and Mazda replaces it on the lowest step of the podium. Honda and Audi round out the top five. This year's list includes six Japanese brands in the top 10, two Europeans, one America and one Korean.
Acura isn't the only one taking a tumble, though. Infiniti is the biggest loser this year by dropping 14 spots to 20th place. Other big losses come from Mercedes-Benz with an 11-place fall to 24th, and GMC, which declines 10 positions to 19th.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it's not traditional mechanical bugs hauling down these automaker's reliability scores. Instead, pesky problems with infotainment systems are taking a series toll on the rankings. According to Consumer Reports, complaints about "in-car electronics" were the most grumbled about element in new cars. Problem areas included things like unresponsive touchscreens, issues pairing phones and multi-use controllers that refused to work right.

Two nearly new 1987 Buick Grand National 'twins' found in garage after 30 years

Fri, Apr 7 2017

Back in the '80s, a Buick Grand National could leave a lot of vehicles in its dust. The final, 1987 version of the menacingly styled performance coupe produced 245 horsepower and 355 pound feet of torque, and it was never designed to sit still, let alone for 30 years. But two low-mile Grand Nationals did just that. At the time, it was widely known that nothing like the Grand National would be built again, as the Regal platform would be moving to front-wheel drive. So a lot of buyers stockpiled Grand Nationals and rarer GNX versions with the idea of making a buck on them when they gained value. Some people even bought several. That's what happened to these two cars, recently unearthed from their slumber. Thirty years of storage has turned them into barn finds instead of showroom beauties, and they haven't exactly been flawlessly preserved. A story reported on gm-efi.com shows the cars – the "Twins," as they're called – parked side to side, the way they were laid to rest decades ago, with thick dust on them. Two enthusiasts, Shawn Matthews and William Avila, originally contacted the owner, who had posted them for sale on Facebook with a staggering $200,000 asking price. After inspecting the cars and confirming they were legit, the prospective buyers managed to strike a deal for an undisclosed sum. The story does say the seller was a bit eccentric, demanding money in hand before the cars could be touched at all, but the cars were eventually acquired and transported to a shop for desperately needed refurbishing. Time has caused the headliners on both cars to droop, and it's obvious all gaskets and fluids will need to be addressed, but both cars have extremely low odometer readings: One has 807 miles on the clock, while the other hasn't even reached 600. The car with a more miles was moved "once in a while," so clearly the original owner couldn't resist giving it a go while the other one slept. We couldn't've, either.
