You are viewing a beautiful 1975 Buick LeSabre convertible that I have owned for nearly two years but would now like to sell on to someone who will enjoy it as much as I have. This car is in extremely nice condition as I have tried to capture in the photos in this listing and also the nearly 100 additional photos that you can find at the flickr link at the end of my description. From day one of my ownership of this big, beautiful Buick it has been truly a joy to own. It performs just as it should and all the power options work flawlessly. The power windows, power seats, power top and radio all work wonderfully and even the speed sentinel that you can see pictured in the close-up of the speedometer still buzzes as GM intended it to. The big 350 V8 provides nice smooth power that seems perfect for this long and sleek top-down cruiser. What I've always loved about this generation of LeSabres is the fabulous grillwork that tapers so gracefully along just some of the most incredible body lines I've ever seen. I wasn't shopping at all for a convertible when I found this one, but those body lines caught my eye and captured my imagination, especially being fitted with the stunning Buick factory wheels. And the condition made it a must-have car. There are no blemishes or dents or dings and certainly no rust. Even the undercarriage is extremely nice, as you can see. It was and is a turn-key classic that I would readily drive anywhere without a worry.

During my ownership I did have a new top motor installed, not because the original wasn't working, but because I had to borrow the original to replace the top motor in my 1974 LeSabre convertible that this 1975 bumped out of my garage. As I said, when I purchased this car I wasn't at all in the market for another classic, but it just blew my away and required a little creative reorganizing of my small car collection. Cars are like women, the best ones never show up when you're ready for them. And on the morning my '74 was to go to its new home the top motor decided to fail -- you guys know how that goes! -- so pulling the top motor out of this car seemed the best way to fix things and make everybody happy. I couldn't send away my convertible to a new owner with a top that didn't go down! During the time I've owned this beautiful car I also had a new top professionally installed. The one that was on it when I purchased it wasn't too bad, but I'm pretty picky about these things and wanted it just right. You can see from the photos how great it turned out. Now it is in the same great condition as the rest of the interior. The one item I didn't bother to mess with was the A/C. It is all there and ready to go, but it doesn't blow cold. Being that this is a convertible and I only drove it with the top down on perfect days, A/C wasn't something I missed. But I've included a "Buy It Now" price in this auction with the understanding that if someone makes me an offer that I accept before the end of the auction and would like the A/C working, I'll get it taken care of, no problem.
For such a nice Buick convertible with all these power options I believe I've set my reserve very fairly, because I'd really like to see someone be able to enjoy cruising in it this summer. But I do reserve the right to end the auction early if someone uses the "Buy It Now" option or I sell the car locally beforehand. Good luck!

First 2013 Buick Encore TV ad features... dinosaurs
Thu, 14 Mar 2013The whole "SUVs as dinosaurs" trope has become something of a threadbare cliché among auto writers, but that doesn't mean the wider world of consumers has caught on to the Jurassic nature of our line of thinking. That's what General Motors appears to be betting on, at least. Just check out Buick's first television spot for its 2013 Encore, the tiny crossover that is pushing the Tri-Shield into territories unknown while looking to outrun the brand's reputation as a refuge for elderly clientele.
Set to air this weekend on ESPN during the NCAA college basketball tournament, the ad plays up the Encore's maneuverability and surprising interior space by setting the baby Buick amongst a herd of lumbering CG dinosaurs created by Tippett Studio, the folks behind Hollywood blockbusters like Jurassic Park, Ted, and the Twilight series of films.
We can't help but snigger a little - while the Encore is indeed surprisingly roomy, nimble, and composed, our first drive found it to be glacially slow, too... not unlike a certain prehistoric race of animals. Check out the commercial below and judge for yourself.
2014 Buick Regal GS AWD
Thu, 27 Feb 2014"This is just silly," I said as I laughed my way sideways around the icy track at Circuit ICAR, a racecourse, drag strip and kart track at the Montreal-Mirabel International Airport in Quebec. It wasn't the activity that had me cracking up, though. After all, winter driving experiences aren't uncommon in this business.
No, in this particular case, it was the car that had me chuckling. I wasn't in a mad hot hatch or a rally-derived rocket - I was in a Buick. The 2014 Regal GS, to be more precise. Somehow, despite its recent product renaissance (not to mention its distant - yet storied - history of performance models), I was having a hard time believing that this attractive, turbocharged, all-wheel-drive sedan sliding around the Great White North could possibly be wearing a Tri-Shield badge on its nose.
But it was, and slide about it did. While having access to a vehicle in this setting is fairly rare, what's rarer is the fact that I've had so much exposure to it. In Mr. Ewing's recent Volkswagen Golf R drive story, for instance, his ice capades were his first experience with the new model. In my case, though, I was lucky enough to first test the refreshed Regal GS for a week back in December before flying to Quebec to drive it on the snowy, icy, winding roads of Canada's most fiercely independent province and on the track at Mirabel.
New Buick Verano testing in Germany
Thu, 29 May 2014A refresh to Buick's popular Verano sedan appears to be nigh, thanks to these spy photos that show the tweaked four-door testing in Germany.
As with the current Verano, the refreshed model will have a great deal in common with its European platform-mates, the Vauxhall/Opel Astra. Each car rides on General Motors's Delta II platform. Unlike the current car, though, the refreshed model's styling could lean more heavily towards its European roots, if these photos are any indication.
Despite its commonality with the Astra Sedan, the Verano has featured its own unique styling since arriving in the US back in 2011 as a 2012 model, with distinct fascias at both the front and back, as wells its own headlight and taillight designs. The two cars were still rebadged vehicles, but it was more subtle than it will be in 2015, when the refreshed Verano arrives. Astra-like elements are expected to dominate, particularly in regards to the headlights and taillights. That said, trademark Buick styling features will remain, like the waterfall grille. Really, then, the 2016 Verano won't be unlike the Regal - a rebadged Vauxhall/Opel Insignia, aside from a few very small styling details.
