1987 Buick Grand National Pristine Condition on 2040-cars
Matawan, New Jersey, United States
You are bidding on a one of a kind 1987 Buick Grand National. I am the 2nd owner of this vehicle. I purchased the car 2 years ago from the original owner with 22,000 original miles on it. The car was sitting in a garage for 16 years. I had the entire motor rebuilt by Paul at No Limit Performance. A well renowned race engine builder with a reputation second to none. I explained I wanted the original car and engine to be built with todays technology. I have a complete build sheet on the car but I will list here with the exact details to be issued to a serious buyer. The interior of the vehicle is in pristine condition with no faults or blemishes what so ever. The car was sanded and painted by M3 Auto in Neptune NJ and was taken completely down to bare metal, epoxy primed and painted with 6 coats of paint and 12 coats of clear coat. The car has yet to be wet sanded and buffed and you will still see in the photos it has a mirror finish. The engine is an original matching numbers engine and has as follows:
3250 Stroker Crank with Chevy Journals Made in USA Oliver racing Rods Ross Pistons Comp Cam Shaft Engine was honed .25 and completely Glyptoned Ported and Polished Heads Crane Roller rockers and Rods 72MM GN1 Throttle Body Edelbrock Manifold Edelbrock Racing Fuel Rails Edelbrock Plenum 70lbs HO Injectors T72 Precision Turbo Charger 3" Down Pipe External Waste Gate Oversized Chrome intercooler Aluminum Pulley System High Volume oil pump High Volume Fuel Pump Level 10 Transmission with shift kit 9" Torque Converter Aluminum 3" Radiator Engine has 500 miles since rebuild. There is way too much work that has been done to this GN but the car purrs like a kitten and will run low 11's on the track. This is an adult driven GN and the car has been babied and well taken care of. You will not find a cleaner GN anywhere online. This car is a 5 time best of show winner and a 12 time top 5 winner in Northeast car shows. I have 16 GNX wheels on the car with the original 15" wheels in the garage and available. I have all the original parts as well. This auction is for the serious buyer that appreciates a meticulously done vehicle. This car is a must see. Please don't bid if you are not serious. I have a complete build sheet for the serious buyer. I am selling the car because I want to move on to the next project which is an old Chevelle rebuild/restore. Please only bid if you are serious. |

Next Buick Regal to inherit styling cues from Opel Monza concept
Mon, 06 Oct 2014Ever look at a concept car from a foreign auto marque like Opel and wonder what relevance it will have to you as an American consumer? Well, we'll tell you: at least as far as the Opel Monza concept goes, it could mean a lot.
Speaking with Automotive News at the Paris Motor Show, Opel chief Karl-Thomas Neumann said, "You will see the Monza when you see the next Insignia." And the Insignia, we needn't point out, is essentially ported over to American showrooms as the Buick Regal.
The relationship between the Regal and Insignia only stands to grow closer as Opel design chief Mark Adams has also been charged with tightening the bonds between the two automakers positioned on opposite shores of the Atlantic. Adams also intends to imbue the next Insignia with more "premium brand values" in order to "add polish to the brand." Which in turn means that the Regal will be designed to look more upscale, too.
2018 Buick Regal GS First Drive Review | More power, style and doors
Wed, Mar 7 2018During our test-drive of the 2018 Regal GS, Buick took us to Atlanta Motorsports Park and hired stunt drivers to teach us mild-mannered journalists how to do a J-turn. It's an emergency maneuver, also known as a Rockford, in which the car reverses at full speed, spins 180 degrees and takes off in the exact opposite direction from where it was headed. It symbolized perfectly Buick's hopes for the Regal GS, its most ambitious attempt yet at a bona fide American sports sedan. Buick is trying to shake off decades of stigma as a maker of grandpa-spec wafters. Since 2008, it has been rebadging the Opel Insignia, developed by GM's German subsidiary and built in Russelsheim, as the Regal. In 2012, Buick revived the Regal GS badge, providing power from a 2.0-liter turbo four, initially at 270 horsepower but then detuned to 259 hp in 2014 as AWD was introduced. Buick had high hopes of challenging the luxury greats, and while the previous Regal GS received good reviews as a genuine sports sedan, it never really caught on in the marketplace. Buick took a risk by redefining the brand, but ultimately, it wasn't quite successful enough to be uttered in the same breath as BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Lexus. The 2018 Regal GS doubles down on that lofty goal with a better-fleshed-out version of the outgoing car. It returns with improved styling and even more power, courtesy of a naturally aspirated 3.6-liter V6 generating 310 horsepower and 282 lb-ft of torque. In other words, the new GS is up 40 horses, but down 13 lb-ft with an engine that comes straight from the GM parts bin. Within GM, it is known as the "High Feature" engine, used in everything from Cadillacs to V6 Camaros to the GMC Acadia. Autoblog has knocked this engine on refinement but generally praised its power, so it's a mixed bag. On the Regal GS, though, the drivetrain exhibited a marked improvement on the refinement front. Buick spokesperson Stuart Fowle attributed this to the new nine-speed automatic it's mated to, a quick and smooth-shifting transmission well-programmed to keep the engine at optimal revs. The result deviates quite a bit from the Opel Insignia, which maxes out with a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four good for 197 horses and 300 lb-ft. With turbo 2.0-liter fours now the de facto entry-level engine for most luxury carmakers, having the 3.6-liter V6 makes the 2018 Regal GS more distinctive, a bit more American and less of a European copy-paste job than its predecessor.
2014 Buick Regal GS
Mon, 09 Sep 2013A few months ago I drove the 2014 Buick LaCrosse and wrote up a First Drive review of it. For all of my quibbles with that sedan (and I had a fair number), I understand that it speaks to the heart of what new Buick loyalists like in a car; it's roomy, has a cushy ride and is as placid as a summer's morning at highway speeds.
Those qualities, while undeniably desirable, don't mean a whole lot to me personally. I prefer sedans that conjure up words like "nimble," "punchy" or even "raucous" on occasion. So, directionally, the high-performance GS version of the 2014 Buick Regal is more my cup of tea than any other car in the company's current range.
In fact, I'd already come to know the Regal GS from its 2012 model year introduction, and grown more than a little fond of the sporting sedan in its original front-wheel-drive, six-speed-manual guise. The fast, sweet-handling car with well-sorted controls may have suffered from a slight identity crisis in terms of pricing (and may still), but it was undeniably fun to drive. So, when I heard that the GS was coming to market for 2014 with optional all-wheel drive (albeit only in combination with a six-speed automatic transmission), I was stoked to have another go and concentrated my driving impressions on the AWD car.
