2,627K MILE ORIGINAL TURBOCHARGED BUICK GRAND NATIONAL

Grand Nationals that have not been modified and been kept in outstanding original condition are getting very rare indeed. How about one that has only 2,627K miles and has been kept original and pampered its entire life. The ones in this condition don’t come up for sale often. The market on these has been climbing making these GN's clearly collectible and desirable for all car collectors. Check out the Hagerty website on-line car value guide and you will see the value for GN’s increasing and GNX decreasing. This GN is outstanding and matching numbers in all aspects. It was an occasional driver and trailered to shows and never modified or driven hard. 100% stock and original.

There are some GN’s that are considered ‘lightweights’ by the GN collectors. These are cars did come with T-tops (that DOES NOT leak), NO power windows, NO power door locks, NO power seats, and NO cruise control. Very desirable.  This is one of those rare ‘lightweights’. I have never seen another with the T-top option as a ‘lightweight’. Simply put, original and very fast. It does have AM/FM stock radio and the G80 posi rear-end.

This Buick Grand National is sure to satisfy even the most discriminating 80’s muscle car enthusiast.

Mechanically:

This GN performs exceptionally - as new.  It is very quick and aggressive.  It needs no mechanical attention in its completely stock form.  New battery installed January 2014.  The AC unit needs to be recharged, minor detail.  The vehicle does not have a hint of rust. It is tight and handles and stops superbly.  It still wears its original tires that are not dry rotted or flat spotted.

Exterior cosmetics:

The black paint is original and looks great; the car has never been hit or been repaired.  The paint and body panels are exactly as it left the manufacturing plant in September 1987.  The GN’s only modification is the professional installation of side and rear window tinting.  

Interior cosmetics:

The interior is exceptional!  No wear, stains or cracks.  It smells like a factory new GN when you open the doors.  Never smoked in or mistreated in any fashion and no alterations from stock equipment have been made.

Special Note:

Vehicle comes with full ownership documentation, purchase & sales brochures, and the original sales agreement. Additionally, the GN comes with DUSTOP cover for maximum dust protection for indoor storage and with an exterior Weathershield car cover.  Even signed by Molly (now deceased) on the 20th reunion celebration for the Buick GN (in 2007)!  

As with all used collector cars this is sold as is and there is no warranty expressed or implied.  It is your responsibility to bid and purchase based only on your own inspection/examination of the vehicle and the facts.  Please feel free to contact me with your questions and with any assistance you might require in bidding or finalizing the sale.

A very reasonable reserve has been set for this magnificent vehicle!

Payment and deposit for this vehicle is to be by Wire Transfer or Certified Funds (cashier check).  The required deposit for this superb GN is $1,000.00 within 48 hours following the end of the auction and full payment is due within 5 days following the end of the auction.  Pickup and/or shipment is the sole responsibility of the buyer. IF THE TRANSACTION IS NOT PAID WITHIN THE TIME ALLOWED, I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO RETAIN YOUR DEPOSIT AND RESELL TO THE NEXT HIGHEST BIDDER OR RE-LIST THE ITEM.

GM's MPG overstatement could affect 2 million vehicles

Tue, May 17 2016

Late last week, GM admitted that three of its large SUVs fuel economy window stickers did not match their actual efficiency ratings, and so the vehicles couldn't be sold. The stickers on the 2016 Chevy Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Buick Enclave said their ratings were one to two miles per gallon better than they should have been. Officially, the number of affected vehicles sits at about 60,000. But Consumer Reports makes a good point: what's up with all of the previous model year SUVs that are basically the same vehicle? To wit: the 2016 model year vehicles are not substantially different than the 2015 or the 2014, or even going all the way back to 2007. On the EPA's fuel economy website, all of these older models will "have better stated fuel economy numbers than the new vehicles in GM's dealerships," Consumer Reports noted. CR's best point, and the one that makes the 60,000 number potentially grow to 2 million if all of the vehicles built on this platform are affected, is that "[i]t seems unlikely that the company would change the powertrain on these carryover models so late in their model cycles in a way that would cause a dramatic, negative impact on fuel economy." GM says that earlier model year SUVs are not affected and the EPA did not respond to CR's question about the potential for more discrepancies. We've seen automakers reverse course before, so if GM has to come out with a mea culpa soon, don't be surprised. GM is rushing corrected stickers to dealers so that the SUVs can be sold again, but a fix for the already-sold vehicles could be trickier to solve.

GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

2010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.

Wagons make a bit of a comeback, with new models, sales on the rise

Thu, Jan 10 2019

Consider this an official invitation to hop on the wagon bandwagon. There's still tons of room because, well, it's a wagon (and market share is still extremely small). But according to new data, the segment is growing. According to a report from Bloomberg, using data from Edmunds.com, roughly 211,600 Americans purchased wagons in 2018. That is technically down from the 237,600 sold in 2017, but wagon sales in the U.S. are up 29 percent from where they were five years ago. It's also the third year in a row that wagon sales broke the 200,000 mark. The sales trends have been somewhat representative of the availability of wagons. New models have debuted during the past 5 years and therefore offer more opportunity at more brands to buy wagons. In addition to more modest cars such as the Volkswagen Golf Sportwagen, several luxury and performance brands are offering wagons today, such as Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Porsche, Jaguar, Volvo and Buick. (Bloomberg's headlines make the point that "crossovers are for the Kardashians," and wagons are just, well, classier.) This uptick in brand-name availability, as well as extremely well-executed design on most of the wagons currently available, has helped increase the segment's desirability. That, and its ability to better accomplish the same tasks at hand while standing out from the crossover and SUV crowd. Still, the posted numbers represent a small fraction of the total vehicles sold. According to the data, wagons only held a 1.4 percent market share in 2017, the segment's best recent year. Wagons hold a steadfast place in America's past, and they're writing an interesting new story. With the downturn in traditional cars, they may continue to create an unexpected narrative.
