SELLER REMARKS

You say you're tired of showing up in your early '60s Impala and seeing ten others at every show? Then how about this 1962 Buick LeSabre hardtop instead? Similar looks, Buick quality and comfort, and that incredible torque factory 401 under the hood. Isn't it time your hobby car grew up?


With just two owners from new, this is a pretty impressive car that has weathered the past five decades without a lot of trauma. Hailing from California, you know it's clean and it's had just one repaint about 25 years ago, so there's no arguing with the car it's received since then. The Desert Sand color looks as good here as it would anywhere else, and the timeless styling looks best with these subtle colors. The hardtop's shape should look familiar to Impala fans and with famous Buick portholes on the front fenders, this car commands respect at shows. Those creases and folds in the bodywork are laser sharp and it lines up the way only a good, original car can. Nice bumpers, just a few stainless accent pieces, and those cool body-colored headlight pods give it a very impressive overall look.


You'll see the Buick's big difference the moment you open the door, because there's a lot more space in there than you'd get from a smaller Impala. As far as we can tell, those are the original Fawn-colored striped seat covers, and they're in exemplary condition. The carpets were replaced not too long ago and they look quite correct, and the simple door panels are effective at creating an upscale look. There's a wide expanse of instrument panel highlighted with bright trim and a cool center stack that houses the original AM radio. The steering wheel is in good shape; those aren't cracks, that's how it was designed which makes for a very cool look from the driver's seat. It shows about 101,000 miles, and given the condition and preservation, we're pretty sure that's authentic. The massive trunk still carries its original mats, plus a full-sized spare up on its own little shelf that makes for plenty of cargo space.


Buick's 401 cubic inch "Nailhead" V8 is famous for one thing: massive torque. The muscular mill makes this luxury hardtop move like a muscle car and delivers the kind of effortless punch that you'd expect. The '410' referenced on the air cleaner is the torque rating, which was a Buick tradition for many years, as was the Buick Turquoise paint that seems to be in really good shape. Heck, this one's even still got its original generator in place! Power steering and brakes were probably mandatory upgrades when you're dealing with this much steel, and the Dynaflow automatic transmission delivers that seamless flow of power that is unlike any other car. A single exhaust system provides just a distant hum when you're cruising, and if you take a look underneath, you'll see those California-bred floors that still carry factory red oxide primer. 15-inch steel wheels with hubcaps are fitted with 225/75/15 whitewall radials, so it has a factory look with more modern performance.


So if you're tired of always owning the same car as everyone else, or if you've just grown up a bit, perhaps this Buick is talking to you. Call today!

MotorWeek remembers the nearly forgotten Buick Reatta

Thu, Feb 18 2016

The Reatta was Buick's failed experiment to take on European competitors with its own two-seat luxury coupe and convertible. The model only lasted a few years, and US customers didn't see another droptop from the brand until the Cascada. The latest MotorWeek Retro Review takes a look back at the short-lived roadster and remembers it quite fondly. Host John Davis calls the 1990 Reatta droptop "one of the best looking convertibles ever." His sentiment seems a little hyperbolic, but the roadster is definitely an attractive machine by the standards of the time. The smooth front end and pop-up headlights are reminiscent of Japanese sports cars of era, and the profile with the top down is elegant. There are weaknesses, though. The manual roof mechanism appears cumbersome to operate, and the crude digital instruments, which simulate physical dials, make the cabin look too dated. Other than a complaint about over-boosted power steering, MotorWeek enjoys how the Reatta drives, too. Buick's roadster is largely forgotten today, but such glowing praise suggests it deserves to be better remembered. Check out this Retro Review to look back on this interesting experiment from the early '90s. Related Video:

Why Buick's Encore wasn't a Chevy

Wed, 31 Oct 2012

Buick is taking a gamble with its 2013 Encore. General Motors' near-luxury brand has enjoyed great success attracting conquest buyers to its larger Enclave crossover, but it has never offered something quite like this small CUV.
Very early signs suggest that the gamble might be working. According to Mark Reuss, President of General Motors, the automaker expected about 1,500 initial orders from its dealers for the Encore, but it's tracking closer to 9,000 units. Alluding to the fact that historically, Buick has shared similar products with GM's other brands, Reuss says that Buick dealers are "thrilled to have an exclusive." The automaker already markets almost identical models in other markets as the Opel/Vauxhall Mokka and Chevrolet Trax, but The General's other brands won't offer a twin to the new baby Buick.
The new Encore is based on the Gamma architecture that underpins the Chevrolet Sonic, and it shares the economy car's available turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine. With standard front-wheel drive and available all-wheel drive, GM says its Encore will be pitted against competitors like the BMW X1 and Audi Q3, both of which are much more expensive but also much more powerful.

2015 Buick Verano offered with six-speed manual after all

Mon, 09 Jun 2014

Good news, boys and girls (well, at least those of you who still like shifting for yourselves). Buick got in touch with us to correct some information that it had mistakenly announced; namely, that the 2015 Verano will lose its optional six-speed manual transmission. Apparently, that announcement was incorrect, and the compact sedan will indeed continue to offer a manual option for 2015, despite what we're certain is a low take rate. Additionally, the Desert Dusk Metallic paint that was said to come as part of an Appearance Package is no longer part of the deal. With that out of the way, we now return you to your regularly scheduled automotive-obsessive broadcast...
