1987 Grand National; 2-owners, 11,691 Original Miles, Showroom Condition!! on 2040-cars
Fredericksburg, Virginia, United States
|
Welcome
to the
1987 Buick Grand
National--11,691 Miles!!
The
Grand National, the only real GM muscle car of the ‘80s, is unique in a number
of important respects: · It is a 2-owner car with a reported (and documented) 11,691 miles since new!! ·
It is believed to
have been built on the last day Buick produced the GNs ·
The original
window sticker is included in the car’s documentation. Almost Showroom Quality! This GN is almost showroom fresh: great paint, like-new interior, very clean undercarriage. · Paint Like all Grand Nationals, our ’87 is finished in black; unlike some GNs, the paint is in excellent condition. The deep black finish gleams and has great depth. The body and underside of the car appear to be free of rust and corrosion, other than minor surface rust on the unpainted surfaces. Precisely what one would expect on such a low-mileage car that has been garaged. The underside still shows some of the original factory assembly markings. · Interior The seat upholstery black and gray cloth with the GN logo on the front seats and appears brand new. The black carpeting is likewise as new and is additionally protected by GN-logo floor mats. The door panels look new and the dash pad is in excellent condition. The headliner appears perfect as well. · Engine What made these cars a legend was the power plant: a 3.8 liter turbo- charged engine with an intercooler that generated 245 horse power. While that may seem tame by muscle car standards, these cars were able to go from the showroom floor to the track and turn 14-second quarter miles. It was rumored at the time that the GN was faster (and more powerful) than the Corvette but for marketing purposes that fact wasn’t advertised. The engine on this GN starts right up, runs smoothly and goes like a thoroughbred when the turbo kicks in. The engine bay is very clean and detailed.
The transmission is so reliable that Buick never offered the GN in anything other than an automatic. It is quick-shifting and reliable, operated via the shifter on the console. The rear axle is fitted with a 3.42 limited slip rear end, allowing the full torque of the engine to reach the pavement · Wheels/Tires/Brakes This car is equipped with factory 15” aluminum wheels with a new set of 215/65R15 Uniroyal Tiger Paw tires. The car is safely and quickly brought to a stop with Buick’s power front disc/rear drum braking system. · Comfort and Safety Systems This is a car that is as much as home going to church as it is going to the track. Seating for 5 with climate-control air conditioning makes it a pleasure on family trips, with plenty of trunk space for golf clubs, luggage or groceries. The driver’s seat has the optional 6-way power controls to adjust to almost every driving position. The original radio (that will also go with the car) has been replaced by a high-tech, in-dash Alpine GPS unit that incorporates AM/FM/Satellite radio as well as a CD player with iPod/iPhone and Bluetooth connectivity. Of course all of the gauges, lights and other safety features work properly. Power steering and power windows complete the package. A Perfect Example of Detroit’s ‘80s Muscle Car With only 11,691 odometer miles, this Grand National is truly a rare beast that quickly turns into a family pussycat. Designed to be a barn burner, the car immediately accommodates family usage with A/C and all the power options. But make no mistake, this GN is a lion-eater in disguise: once awakened by the competitive challenge, let the Mustangs, Camaros, ‘Vettes and Mopars beware because this Buick can take them all.

GM recalls 64k 2011-2013 Volts over carbon monoxide fears, stop sale on Trax and Encore
Thu, Mar 12 2015General Motors is recalling 50,249 Chevrolet Volts from the 2011-2013 model years in the US and an additional 13,937 exported examples because of fears over carbon monoxide buildup. According to a statement, if a Volt is accidentally left on while running on electric power, its internal combustion engine would eventually kick on to charge on the battery. If this happens in an enclosed space, then carbon monoxide can fill the area, leading to a potential exposure to the dangerous gas. According to GM, there have been two injuries reported due to this issue. To fix the problem, there's a software update to limit the time the vehicle can idle. According to Automotive News, GM is also issuing a stop sale on about 2,300 examples of the 2015 Chevrolet Trax and Buick Encore. In these compact crossovers, it's possible that the steering column assembly could touch the power steering circuit board and cause damage over time. This could potentially cause the system to stop working. Automotive News indicates that the automaker is still working with the supplier to get the necessary parts to repair this problem. General Motors is recalling 50,249 Chevrolet Volts in the U.S. from the 2011-2013 model years to implement a software update that will limit the amount of time a vehicle can be left idling in the "on" or "run" position. If a driver exits the vehicle and inadvertently leaves the vehicle "on" by failing to react to cues and warning chimes emitted by the vehicle, the vehicle's high-voltage battery will drain after a period of time and the gasoline engine will begin to run. If the gas engine runs for a long period of time within an enclosed space, such as a garage, carbon monoxide could build up. GM is aware of two injuries, both related to carbon monoxide build up. The total recall population including Canada and exports is 64,186. Related Video:
1969 Chevrolet Chevelle vs 1987 Buick GNX in Generation Gap showdown
Wed, 15 Oct 2014Generation Gap generally tries to adhere to a theme for each episode, and for the final video from the Lingenfelter collection, the series might have its best idea yet - limited-production muscle cars from General Motors.
On one side you get a 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle COPO, and it's an absolute sleeper. Other than the SS wheels, this classic coupe looks practically bone stock, at least until the engine fires up. Under the hood is a 427-cubic-inch (7.0-liter) V8 making a claimed 425 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. This was the sole year for the COPO package on the Chevelle, and Chevy only made about 323 of them.
The Chevelle's challenger is almost as rare and arguably just as cool. The 1987 Buick Grand National GNX looks just as mean today as when new. It eschews a traditional muscular V8 in favor of a 3.8-liter turbo V6 making a claimed 276 hp and 360 lb-ft, although that number is supposedly a bit underrated. Also, just 547 examples of the GNX version were ever built making it quite a collector's item too.
GM re-recalls 11k SUVs
Tue, Oct 13 2015General Motors is recalling a bunch of previously recalled SUVs because, well, they still aren't quite fixed. The latest repairs are necessary on 10,974 SUVs in North America, including 9,932 in only the US. Affected models include the 2006-2007 Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, and GMC Envoy; plus the 2006 Trailblazer EXT and Envoy XL. While not listed by NHTSA, a statement by GM to Autoblog says the 2006-2007 Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender are also affected. In these SUVs, it's possible that liquid could get into the driver's door master power window switch module and cause a short circuit. This could potentially lead to a fire, and owners are urged to park the vehicles outside until repaired. GM has been trying to fix this issue for years. It started as an investigation into fires, and that led to a recall for about 250,000 vehicles in cold-weather states. A nationwide campaign came in 2013 for 193,000 of them in the US. Last year, the automaker decided to replace the whole module as a repair. However in a recent investigation of these recalls, GM discovered that this latest group of SUVs never received the new part. According to documents submitted to NHTSA (as a PDF), "Some dealers incorrectly used the labor code associated with module replacement when, instead of replacing the module, they only added a protective coating to the module." To fix things this time, the models finally get the correct component. Related Video: GM Statement General Motors is recalling 9,932 older midsize SUVs in the U.S. because they were mistakenly excluded from an earlier recall. Certain 2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL, and 2006-2007 TrailBlazer, Envoy, Buick Rainier, Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender vehicles may continue to have a condition in which the printed circuit board inside the driver's door may corrode and short if exposed to certain fluids such as melted snow containing road salt. GM is aware of four fires but no crashes, injuries or fatalities associated with the expanded recall. The total number of vehicles being recalled, including Canada, Mexico and exports is 10.974. Customers are urged to park these vehicles outside until repairs have been made. GM reported this recall to the NHTSA on September 23.
