This is a beautiful, rust-free example of one of the premier mid-seventies floaters that spent the majority of its life in the midwest (not in the snowy Northeast) ready to be enjoyed! I just had a brand new top professionally installed by an outfit that specializes in scissor top installations, which has become are very narrow field of expertise. The body and paint are in excellent shape, as well as the optional rally rims that play off the body lines of this car like nothing else. The interior is equally stunning and all options work as they should. The stereo, power windows, power seats, speed sentinel all work great. I had her out for a cruise yesterday (it was 85 degrees out) and the A/C wasn't blowing quite as cold as I would like, so I am going to have it looked at and corrected before it goes to its new owner. I'm a stickler for details like that, because it those little things that bring the true charm to owning a classic car. The front seat has been freshly reupholstered, which included a new seat bottom and back and a re-cushioning, so it looks AND feels like new ! I would drive this car anywhere. I was at a classic car auction in January and watched a LeSabre convertible nearly identical to mine (same year, engine size, body color and wheels) go for $16,500, so these cars are beginning to get the recognition they truly deserve. Think of it, you can drive this car essentially like any other contemporary car -- no unusual routine to get it started, no fancy fuel additives needed, nice automatic transmission -- and your whole family can use it with the assurance that it should always perform well. I would let my teenage kids drive it in a heartbeat, unlike some classic cars that just have so much raw horsepower that they are almost dangerous to inexperienced drivers. These mid-seventies convertibles are really the best of all worlds for pure summer enjoyment and are beginning to see the commensurate uptick in their valuations as nicely preserved examples become more rare and sought after ever year. They have enough 'modern' refinements to make them very worry-free and accessible to you AND the wife, while at the same time transmitting that big engine, big car feel that has been lost along our way to the uber-digitized automotive reality we find ourselves shoehorned into with the cars of today. That is what makes them truly special. I love all classics, so I will consider trades as well. Thanks for viewing

GM to offer 2 years free maintance on most 2014 models
Thu, 06 Jun 2013A day after Ford announced it was scaling back the complimentary maintenance program for its Lincoln brand, General Motors has gone in the completely opposite direction, offering most of its 2014 lineup with free maintenance. Since 2011, Cadillac models have all come with a four-year/50,000-mile complimentary maintenance program, but Chevrolet, Buick and GMC vehicles will now come standard with free maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles for the 2014 model year.
The program will give vehicle owners and lessees free oil changes, tire rotations and 27-point inspections following the recommended maintenance schedule laid out in each vehicle's owner's manual. We contacted GM to see which vehicles were eligible for the program, and a spokesperson got back to us with the following comment:
"All 2014 models are eligible, it's just that the included services vary by model, e.g., Spark EV would not need oil changes, Corvettes don't recommend tire rotations."
Small number of 2013 Buick Encore models recalled for loose steering wheel
Thu, 04 Apr 2013General Motors has issued a recall and a stop sale for the 2013 Buick Encore due to an issue that could result in the steering wheel falling off on certain models. In a letter to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, GM says that 144 Encores equipped with heated steering wheels could have been incorrectly retrofitted due to a parts shortage.
Needless to say, a loose or separated steering wheel would likely cause an accident if it happened while the vehicle was in motion. The recall doesn't go into effect until April 12, but concerned Encore owners can use the official recall notice (attached below) to contact GM.
Buick Envision CUV launches in China, is America next?
Fri, 29 Aug 2014Buick is launching its new midsize Envision crossover in China at the Chengdu Motor Show, where it will slot between the subcompact Encore and larger Enclave. While it might be hard to muster too much excitement about a Chinese-market crossover, don't completely ignore this one. There's a very good chance it could be on sale in North America to fill the same hole in the brand's lineup over here, possibly as a 2016 model.
We recently spied the Envision completely undisguised as it was arriving at the Chengdu show for its debut. The CUV still looks like a stretched Encore from some front angles, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's got a similar oversized grille, hood vents (presumably faux) and large greenhouse as its little brother. Where the midsize CUV differs is its prominent crease running down the side and the different rear treatment, with wing-shaped trim cutting into the taillights.
The interior looks like a pretty nice place to spend time, too, with a predictable mix of leather, wood and metal, and it should be quiet in there with its active noise cancelation system. Infotainment is provided by an eight-inch touchscreen with a touchpad and voice controls.
