1985 Buick Riviera Luxury Coupe 2-door 5.0l V-8 on 2040-cars

This car is sharp in black with a dark window tint.  The Upholstery is blue cloth.  The engine is a solid and reliable 307 V-8 coupled with a recently serviced automatic transmission with overdrive.


The Registration has been paid through July of 2015. 

It has Power Steering, Power Seats, Power Windows, Air Conditioning (which currently needs work), Tinted Glass, Newer Tires, Awesome Wire Wheels and a 12-cd changer in the trunk.  It has new shocks all around (air shocks in the rear), so the ride is very smooth.  The headliner is in perfect condition, no sagging

The Odometer says 28,274 but real mileage is probably 128,274.  The engine always starts, idles and runs well.

Issue areas: The paint is high gloss and beautiful, but there are some small chips in it, probably from gravel, mainly on the trunk lid.  The vinyl roof is worn and could either be removed or be replaced inexpensively.  The A/C recently stopped working, I think there is a hole in the line.  The Gas gauge is not working, but I can drive 200 miles before needing a fill-up and have never run out of gas - I just use the odometer.  The blue dash cap has been cracked by the sun but has been covered with a black rubber topper, which looks fine as-is or can be replaced if you desire.

You can use this car to commute every day or make it a hobby car for weekend jaunts.  Either way, you won't be disappointed.  This car is available for viewing in Lake Forest, California.  I will work with any shippers that you contract with directly.  Once released to the shipper, I cannot be responsible for any damage that may occur.

Of course, being almost 30 years old, the car does not come with a warranty and is being sold as-is, with no returns.  You are more than welcome to test drive it and have it inspected by a mechanic before purchase.

I will accept cash, personal check, money order, cashier's check, wire transfer or straight deposit.  Possession and title transfer upon bank confirmation of funds.  If you have any concerns, we can use an escrow service. 

Please feel free to ask any questions you may have.  Thank you for your interest.

2014 Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse recalled over brake mix-up

Thu, 08 May 2014

The recall madness over at General Motors isn't letting up anytime soon, as evidenced by this latest call-back of 8,208 Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans. For those keeping track, this is the fifth recall that GM has announced in the past two weeks, not to mention the massive ignition-switch issue from earlier this year.
GM issued a statement saying these sedans are being recalled due to "possible reduced braking performance," according to Automotive News. The problem? Rear brake rotors may have accidentally been installed in the front brake assembly. And since both cars use more robust braking systems up front than out back, braking power could be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.
Automotive News reports that, of the over 8,000 cars being recalled, about 1,700 are currently in the hands of customers, while the others are still in dealer inventory. GM is unaware of any crashes or injuries related to this problem. All of the affected vehicles are from the 2014 model year.

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.

Audi tops Consumer Reports' brand rankings while Tesla leads domestics at eighth

Wed, Mar 1 2017

Tesla supplanted General Motors' Buick division as the top-ranked US automaker in Consumer Reports annual brand rankings, though the electric-vehicle maker finished eighth among global automakers. Buick had finished atop CR's domestic car-brand list for three years before Tesla leapfrogged it. Scores were calculated from a combination of performance, owner satisfaction, and reliability. CR noted that Buick scored big on reliability but not so high on performance, while Tesla appeared to present the opposite case. Volkswagen's Audi division repeated as the best overall brand for the second straight year, beating out VW's Porsche unit, BMW, Toyota's Lexus division, and Subaru. Kia and Mazda followed those brands, while Honda finished ninth, between Tesla and Buick. Consumer Reports took results from 31 brands. Reliability issues related to the Toyota Tacoma helped drop that Japanese automaker out of the top 10. Take a look at CR's results for its Annual Brand Report Card here. That Tesla, Audi, and Porsche placed so high is topical, given some of the issues plaguing those automakers. Audi, Porsche, and their parent VW have been coping with the effects of the diesel-emissions scandal that broke back in 2015. The scandal has cost Europe's largest automaker billions of dollars, and forced VW to put a stop-sale on diesel-powered cars in the US in late 2015. And while the Tesla Model S improved from the "worse-than-average" label CR gave it in its 2015 Annual Auto Reliability Survey, the problematic falcon-wing doors on the Tesla Model X SUV pulled that model's reliability scores lower last year. Additionally, the Model X's climate-control system and door locks have also caused issues. Toyota and Lexus finished atop CR's reliability rankings last year. Related Video:
