1998 Buick Riviera, Only 19,834 Miles, Pristine, Supercharged, Greg Norman Demo on 2040-cars
Willoughby, Ohio, United States
|
This is a NO RESERVE listing.
This is likely the nicest Buick Riviera of this generation for sale in the country- you won't find another like it. This car began life as PGA golfer Greg Norman's demo car for the 1998 World Series of Golf PGA Tour event at Firestone Country Club in Akron, OH. This year Greg Norman was the defending champion for this event and he was given this Buick as his "demo" car. Greg Norman had use of this car for the duration of the tournament and he put the first 350 or so miles on the car. The car was then returned to the dealer, Lambert Buick, where it was sold retail in May of 1999. The lady who bought the car has kept it ever since, only putting on 19,834 miles since new. She is now 91 years old and has given up driving and that is the reason the car is for sale. The car has always had service and oil changes on time and all records come with the car. This car is all original, right down to the original tires with good tread remaining. This car has always been garaged since new and has never been driven in the winter, so it has never seen salt or snow.
This car is in outstanding clean and original condition. It is hard to differentiate the condition of this car from new. This car is absolutely pristine and clean and it has zero rust. The car starts, runs and drives perfectly and it has no known mechanical issues or problems. You could drive this car across the country if you like.
The interior shows basically no wear. The leather seats are perfect, the steering wheel is pristine and the carpets and upholstery are excellent and clean. This interior still looks and smells new. The paint is original and the body is straight, clean and excellent. The paint has just been waxed and the exterior condition of the car is superb. This car has never been kept outside and it has been preserved very well from new. There have been no known accidents. This car has the following equipment and options:
The original books and manuals come with the car along with two sets of keys. This is truly a "time capsule" example of the last generation Buick Riviera. These cars are increasingly difficult to find in good condition, and far harder to find in pristine condition like this one with less than 20,000 miles since new. This is a 16 year old car, not a brand new car. And although it is in superb condition for the miles and age, this car does have a few minor faults: There are holes in the front bumper for the front license plate bracket (included). The power antenna goes up but doesn't come all the way down- it is slightly bent. There are some very minor scrapes on the front and rear bumpers and a few tiny dings on the sides. There is extremely minor normal wear and tear on the car consistent with the mileage. This is almost certainly the cleanest, best-condition Riviera for sale in the USA. I don't know where else you could find one in this sort of condition. This car could easily belong in an automotive museum or a private collection of pristine low-mileage cars. This car is kept in my storage garage in Willoughby, OH. Please contact Angels Moving Autos at 530-245-0481 for a shipping quote. Please email me or call/text me at 440-339-4341 with any questions. |

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015
Mon, 25 Feb 2013General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
GM announces net 220 job increase as Trump visits Michigan
Wed, Mar 15 2017GM announced today that about 900 jobs would be added (or, importantly, retained) ahead of President Trump's arrival in Michigan, where he is expected to discuss his plan to roll back fuel economy standards. The timing of the announcement is almost certainly not coincidental, as appending it to a Trump visit gives it a higher profile and dovetails with the President's jobs agenda. It's less likely the decision itself was made for those reasons, but the free PR boost is a nice bonus. As for those 900 jobs themselves, they aren't all new jobs. The only net gain is approximately 220 jobs at the Romulus Powertrain Plant, which produces the 10-speed automatic transmission that's proliferating through the company's lineup. The 180 jobs at Flint Assembly and 500 jobs at Lansing Delta Township are retained jobs – that is to say, spots the company found for workers who would otherwise have been laid off. By the way, the Flint jobs will help with production of heavy-duty pickups, and the Lansing jobs are to produce the Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave. Finding jobs for manufacturing workers in the auto sector, whether new or retained, is admirable. No matter how GM couches it, the company has created or retained a total of 7,000 jobs this year, and its total reinvestment in US production is around $1 billion. But these decisions are business ones, not political ones – timing the announcements to make them seem inspired by economic policy, or the political situation, is simply smart PR.

Buick Envision aces IIHS crash tests
Tue, Sep 27 2016If you had any qualms about the safety of a Chinese-built car, set them aside. At least when it comes to the Buick Envision. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has tested the new GM crossover and it passed with flying colors. The Envision is the first Chinese-built Buick sold in the States, and it's also the first Chinese-built car the organization has ever tested. In what is an impressive feat for any new automobile, it earned the IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+ rating. This means the crossover comes equipped with a forward collision warning system and earned "Good" marks in all types of collisions, including the difficult small overlap crash test. In addition to the forward collision warning system, an automatic emergency braking system is available on the Envision. Eleven other vehicles earned the TOP SAFETY PICK+ rating, including models from Volvo, Lincoln, Acura, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, Lexus and Infiniti. That's good company, and combined with a pleasant, if not world-beating, driving experience, should make the Envision a car worth consideration. Related Video:
