This Park Avenue was bought by my parents from a local GM dealership in 2002 for over $17,000, with a mileage of 33,212. Mom drove it for a few years, then they bought her something new. Then Dad drove it until he wisely stopped driving due to health problems, and he passed away in Fall of 2012. It has been parked in Mom's covered carport since, but has been driven occasionally or borrowed (by us) when one of our cars was in the shop. Since they rode with us on long trips, this car pretty much had light, gentle use. Dad loved this car and all its bells and whistles. We live where it is very balmy (South Georgia), so there is no salt damage, but there is a new A/C compressor and it has been recently charged, so the air works well. (We roast here without a/c!) It runs well, and all power equipment seems to be working fine. It has a new battery as well. The interior is very clean, but when I was cleaning the back of the driver's seat, a little of the cleaner (not bleach) dripped onto the carpet below and discolored it. I included a photo of it, but the mat can be turned around and that area not seen at all. Just trying to be honest. The leather seats are still in great condition, and the interior is very clean. My parents never smoked in it, or had others that smoked in it. The back of the car does stick out a little from the carport, so the rear bumper has some peeling and fading. Other than that, much of the car has had a good quality, more recent paint job. The color is so dark that it is hard to get photos to show minor things, but I will gladly send more photos to serious buyers. The tires are in very good condition, and should have many more miles on them. The car itself should have many more miles to go! Kelley Blue Book value is about $4600.

The color is so dark that it is hard to get photos to show minor things, but I will gladly send more photos to serious buyers. The tires are in very good condition, and should have many more miles on them. The car has been in one accident of any significance. That was when Mom was in it, stopped and about to turn right out of a gas/convenience store lot. A truck driver had been stopped to run into the store, but he didn't find what he was looking for, jumped in his truck, and was going to turn right at the same place Mom was waiting for a chance to turn. He claimed he didn't see the car, and he essentially shaved the outer panels off the drivers' corner of the car. Of course, the outer panels, the hood, the grille, the left light, the door (maybe both doors) on that side were damaged. Although Mom honked the horn for all she was worth, the truck driver kept on going, took the nearby entrance to the bypass, and stopped at another convenience store near the edge of town, where he was apprehended. Mom was fine, but was told she would have been killed if her door had been open. A little boy witnessed the incident, and his mom brought him over to see that Mom was fine because he was so shaken up. This car is solid, and we are so thankful it protected her well. The shop that did the bodywork on it charges reasonable prices, and over $6,000 was spent in repairs, but they told us the frame was NOT compromised. It was a severe accident in that it could have resulted in injury, and it was over $6,000 to repair the right way. The trucking company did pay (and hopefully, they fired the driver). The owner of the shop that did the repairs is also posting a sale flyer for the car, and he said it was well worth the asking price of $3800. He said "It's a good car", and is offering it to others who have expensive repairs who might want to just buy this one. This is why the paint, the grille, and trim look "younger" than you would expect for a 1999. This car needs to be driven and enjoyed a lot more than it has lately. The Kelley Blue Book value is about $4600. On Jul-21-14 at 21:59:23 PDT, seller added the following information: A few pictures, including views of the tires and of flaws have been posted. It was sprinkling, so there are specks of water on the car in photos, but used opportunity to make sure the wipers work, which they do. Worst interior problem is that Buick should have used a little more material to wrap around some plastic trim on the "door" sides of the front seats. I'm sure this must have happened with all of them, but there is probably a simple way to improve the look. Seatbelt hid it from my notice first time. Drove it a mile or two today, and engine is quiet but has strong acceleration. Stereo was probably hardly used, so I tried the radio, CD, and Cassette, and all work fine. Driver's seat has lumbar adjustment along with standard ones. Seat belts are in very good condition, but could use a little upholstery shampoo. Tires have good tread, and seem to be wearing evenly. Is this car perfect? No, but for its age, it is in amazing condition! |

1969 Chevrolet Chevelle vs 1987 Buick GNX in Generation Gap showdown
Wed, 15 Oct 2014Generation Gap generally tries to adhere to a theme for each episode, and for the final video from the Lingenfelter collection, the series might have its best idea yet - limited-production muscle cars from General Motors.
On one side you get a 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle COPO, and it's an absolute sleeper. Other than the SS wheels, this classic coupe looks practically bone stock, at least until the engine fires up. Under the hood is a 427-cubic-inch (7.0-liter) V8 making a claimed 425 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. This was the sole year for the COPO package on the Chevelle, and Chevy only made about 323 of them.
The Chevelle's challenger is almost as rare and arguably just as cool. The 1987 Buick Grand National GNX looks just as mean today as when new. It eschews a traditional muscular V8 in favor of a 3.8-liter turbo V6 making a claimed 276 hp and 360 lb-ft, although that number is supposedly a bit underrated. Also, just 547 examples of the GNX version were ever built making it quite a collector's item too.
New Forza Horizon 2 pack features Chevy Monte Carlo SS, Audi RS6 Avant [w/video]
Tue, Dec 2 2014The latest car pack for Forza Horizon 2 is hitting Xbox Live today, giving Xbox One owners a shot at six new vehicles that date back to 1970. Leading the charge in the hearts and minds of the Autoblog staff is, of course, the 1988 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS, one of the most 80s-tastic performance coupes of its time. Chevy's 80s-era NASCAR representative is joined by another General Motors performance two-door, in the form of the 1970 Buick GSX. Complete with a 455-cubic-inch V8, the GSX could best be thought of as the grandpappy to the iconic GNX of the late 1980s. Crossing the pond, we have a trio of offerings from the United Kingdom, with the 2002 Lotus Esprit V8, the redesigned, aluminum-intensive 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged and finally, the 2015 McLaren 650S. The mid-engined offerings should be a riot on the winding roads of Forza Horizon 2's European locales, while the Range Rover should make cross-country efforts an absolute breeze. Finally, virtual wagon lovers will be able to enjoy the 2015 Audi RS6 Avant and its combination of Quattro all-wheel drive and a twin-turbocharged V8. As per usual, this latest car pack will be available to gamers for $5 while season pass owners will score the sextet of vehicles for free. Scroll down for a video of the new offerings in action, as well as the official press release from Turn 10 Studios. "Forza Horizon 2" NAPA® Chassis Car Pack Now Available The roads and countryside of "Forza Horizon 2" beg for you to leave your mark on them. The NAPA® Chassis Car Pack for "Forza Horizon 2" on Xbox One has arrived, bringing five amazing new cars to blaze trails, break records, or just enjoy a casual cruise in. First off, the new McLaren 650S Coupe's uncanny acceleration and preposterous top speed will satisfy the elitist in you. If you want get away from it all, there's no better way than in the Supercharged Land Rover. Need muscle? Take the classic form of the Buick GSX or the later model Monte Carlo SS for a spin. We all need more wagon in our lives and the Audi RS6 is ready to run around town or serve up surprises at the track. The NAPA® Chassis Car Pack for "Forza Horizon 2" on Xbox One is available today for $5 in the Xbox Live store. Starting today, also available this month for free for all Xbox One players is the 2002 Lotus Esprit V8.
2024 Buick Envista Review: Looks like $60,000, costs less than $30,000
Thu, Oct 5 2023Pros: Compelling design; ample space for the segment; quiet and refined driving experience; punchy and efficient engine; well-equipped; low price Cons: All-wheel drive not available; armrests are a bit hard The 2024 Buick Envista is one of the best, most competitive and most relevant cars to come out of General Motors in a long time. It is wildly impressive and truly surprising. We had multiple people guess the Copper Ice test car pictured above cost $60,000 or even $80,000, and we agree that it certainly looks expensive. And yet, that Sport Touring test car stickers for $29,070 and isn’t even the top-of-the-line. That puts it in the heart of the subcompact SUV segment, but it boasts one of the biggest back seats and cargo areas in that segment. You certainly wouldnÂ’t guess that by looking at its rakish roofline. Its interior looks almost as good as the exterior, and provides lots of features for the money, including tech that looks great and is easy to use. It is rare for a car to be both a sensible choice and an emotional one, but the Envista is just that. So, how can the Envista be such a bargain in these inflationary times? Being built in Korea rather than by North American union members probably helps. Another key reason, though, is Buick cutting costs in smart areas. The engine is not powerful and its 0-60-mph time in the mid-9-second range is on the slow side, but when behind the wheel, the little turbocharged three-cylinder is punchy around town, its pleasingly snarl-like noise is nicely quelled by ample sound deadening, and its six-speed automatic transmission (perhaps a cost savings itself) does its job without fuss unlike the complicated transmissions of most rivals. The interior also sees the sort of hard plastics indicative of its segment, but the plastics donÂ’t look cheap and are mostly in places where your hands and elbows donÂ’t touch. The lack of all-wheel drive might be a dealbreaker for some, but otherwise, its cons are either justified by the low price or covered up by thoughtful design and engineering. ThatÂ’s a mark of the best inexpensive cars. The new Buick Envista is one of them.
