Previously listed this car last fall and the buyer back-out at the last minute. This car is in excellent condition, with only minor wear on interior and exterior as displayed in the pictures. I have performed a few engine and transmission mods., such as larger turbo, front-mount intercooler, 42lb. injectors, 3" stainless exhaust from turbo, back (single-shot). chrome pipes and covers under hood, and cold-air induction. This car has never been driven in the winter and much of its life spent in the garage being stored. It just received its every-spring service with full synthetic oil and is ready to go! The modifications that have been performed are more for show than for strip. I have NEVER raced this car during my 12 years of ownership. If racing is what you want, all the provisions are here to gain 450+ HP with a simple "tune". Multi-stage ECM Prom is installed that allows for a varying change in fuel/ignition/boost management. Original transmission was overhauled less than 3 years ago/300 miles, and a Coan 3200 stall converter (non lock-up) was installed. TE-63 turbo under hood that would allow for 20+ psi. of boost. Currently boosting to 16, additional frame to body mounts were installed as well as body bracing. The engine runs very strong and transmission shifts firm and crisp.

The body is near flawless with only minor scuffs and a few small "parking lot" dents. No body surface rust except for minor rust under drivers carpet/floor pan (see pics). T-tops and all glass are in excellent condition. Minor interior wear to drivers seat and door panel. Sun visors have been removed due to the steel parts being cracked, causing the visors to be loose and not staying in place (Included). Original wheels are in storage and are included with the sale, as well as any misc. original parts. The only know defects are fuel gauge that shows about 1/4 tank less that what it actually has, and clear-coat that was painted on the bumper guards (rear) that is peeling off, and a small dent on the drivers side roof that looks like a hail stone dent (caused by a tree branch that fell). The car was painted just before I purchased it from the dealership that took it in on trade from the original owner, for a new Jaguar. The windows were tinted during my ownership and look real nice.

38k GM eAssist hybrids recalled for circuit board, fire risk

Mon, 06 May 2013

General Motors has issued a recall covering 38,197 2012 and 2013 model-year Chevy Malibu Eco, Buick LaCrosse and Regal sedans equipped with eAssist, and sold in the United States. The automaker will check the generator control module for proper operation. Only vehicles built before December 2012 are being recalled.
According to the automaker, a malfunctioning generator control module could slowly drain the battery, causing an indicator to light up in the dash. If that indicator is ignored, the driver may experience a stalling engine, and in some cases, "a burning or melting odor, smoke, and, in rare instances, a fire in the trunk."
GM says the issue is not with the eAssist battery pack; the smoke and fire comes from overheating of the control board. One trunk fire has been reported, but no injuries are known. Scroll down below for the official press release from GM.

GM to idle car production at five factories as Americans continue CUV love affair

Mon, Dec 19 2016

In case you needed another reminder that Americans have fallen out of love with sedans, General Motors today announced plans to idle five factories in January in a bid to cut its inventory to 70 days. Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly ( Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac CT6, Chevrolet Volt and Impala) and Fairfax Assembly in Kansas ( Chevy Malibu) will stop production for three weeks. Lansing Grand River ( Cadillac ATS and CTS, and Chevy Camaro) is going down for two weeks, while Lordstown, OH ( Chevy Cruze) and Bowling Green, KY ( Chevy Corvette) will go idle for a week each, Automotive News reports. GM's shutdown reflects a broader problem with the company's supply – at 847,000 vehicles, the company's supply increased unsteadily from a low of 629,000 units in January of 2016. That's more than a 25 percent increase in the past year. Citing information from Autodata, The Detroit News reports that at the end of November, GM had a 168-day supply of LaCrosses, 177 days' worth of Camaro, 170 days of Corvette, 121 days for Cruze, 119 days for ATS, 132 days for CTS, and 110 days of CT6. Meanwhile, inventory of the company's more popular vehicles is actually below the professionally accepted 60- to 70-day supply, The News reports. The Trax, Colorado pickup, and GM's full-size SUVs are sitting below 50 days and experiencing year-over-year sales increases. GM needs a rethink of its inventory levels, which is something that's apparently coming. "We're going to be responsible in managing our inventory levels," GM spokesman Jim Cain told The News. Another unnamed spokesman told Automotive News the company's day-to-day supplies would "fluctuate before moderating at year-end." But at least one analyst thinks this won't be the last time Detroit needs to stop production to level things out. "Incentives are elevated, residuals are declining, and rates are rising," Brian Johnson, an analyst with Barclays, told The News. "And while GM in particular may benefit in the months ahead from new product launches, it's important to recognize that GM's inventory is elevated at the moment, and it wouldn't surprise us if they need to announce another production cut – which could pressure the stock."

Watch this phantom Buick drive itself down the highway in a snow storm

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

Years ago, General Motors used Buick cars to test out the idea of a "smart highway" concept. More recently, GM has been talking up its award-winning Super Cruise semi-autonomous technology that will roll out with Cadillac and make its way to Buick. The LeSabre in the video above has nothing to do with any of that.
On Interstate 15 in Utah, a man driving this LeSabre got into an accident that rearranged the front end and set the horn on permanent blare. At the time of writing this, no one is sure what happened next, but the man ended up sitting in the snow in the highway median while his car carried on down the highway without him. Passing traffic stayed well to the right.
The 51-second video below provides a different take on our autonomous future. A local newscast on KUTV covered the story the evening of the incident, but the Utah Highway Patrol didn't have any update on the fate of the LeSabre. We'll take that to mean that Buick's take on Christine could still be out on the prowl... so watch out!
