ISSUES THAT ANY BUYER MAY WANT TO ADDRESS.. 

1)THE METAL A/C LINE FROM THE DRIER TO THE EVAPORATOR WILL NEED REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT. SO THE A/C IS NOT CHARGED & DOES NOT BLOW COLD. 

2)THE INTERIOR REAR SAIL PANEL MATERIAL HAS PULLED AWAY FROM THE REAR WINDOW MOLDINGS. 

3) RIGHT REAR WINDOW NEEDS A ROLLER. THE MOTOR IS GOOD & WINDOW CAN ASILY BE OPENED/CLOSED MANUALLY. 

4) THE HOOD HINGE SPRINGS ARE WEAK & NEED TO BE REPLACED.

5) THERE IS A MINOR DENT ON THE INNER LOWER LIP OF THE DECK LID(JUST ABOVE THE LICENSE PLATE). IT CAUSES THE LIP MOLDING TO NOT SEAT PROPERLY. IT'S ONLY NOTICEABLE UP CLOSE IF YOU LOOK FOR IT. I BELIEVE THESE ARE ALL MINOR ISSUES. BUT THOUGHT ANY POTENTIAL BUYER SHOULD BE MADE AWARE OF THEM.

THIS IS A VERY NICE CAR! IT'S NOT A #1 SHOW CAR. BUT A CAR YOU CAN BE VERY PROUD TO DRIVE. IT TURNS HEADS EVERY WHERE I DRIVE IT. THE ONLY REASON I'M SELLING IT. I HAVE TOO MANY CARS & NEED THE SPACE. PLUS I'M DOING SOME HOME REMODELING. SO I'M OPEN TO ALL SERIOUS & REASONABLE OFFERS.

PLEASE ASK ALL QUESTIONS & HAVE FUNDS AVAILABLE BEFORE MAKING AN OFFER. I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE. SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY PLEASE.

THANK YOU FOR VIEWING.

Buick Envision CUV launches in China, is America next?

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

Buick is launching its new midsize Envision crossover in China at the Chengdu Motor Show, where it will slot between the subcompact Encore and larger Enclave. While it might be hard to muster too much excitement about a Chinese-market crossover, don't completely ignore this one. There's a very good chance it could be on sale in North America to fill the same hole in the brand's lineup over here, possibly as a 2016 model.
We recently spied the Envision completely undisguised as it was arriving at the Chengdu show for its debut. The CUV still looks like a stretched Encore from some front angles, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's got a similar oversized grille, hood vents (presumably faux) and large greenhouse as its little brother. Where the midsize CUV differs is its prominent crease running down the side and the different rear treatment, with wing-shaped trim cutting into the taillights.
The interior looks like a pretty nice place to spend time, too, with a predictable mix of leather, wood and metal, and it should be quiet in there with its active noise cancelation system. Infotainment is provided by an eight-inch touchscreen with a touchpad and voice controls.

Wagons make a bit of a comeback, with new models, sales on the rise

Thu, Jan 10 2019

Consider this an official invitation to hop on the wagon bandwagon. There's still tons of room because, well, it's a wagon (and market share is still extremely small). But according to new data, the segment is growing. According to a report from Bloomberg, using data from Edmunds.com, roughly 211,600 Americans purchased wagons in 2018. That is technically down from the 237,600 sold in 2017, but wagon sales in the U.S. are up 29 percent from where they were five years ago. It's also the third year in a row that wagon sales broke the 200,000 mark. The sales trends have been somewhat representative of the availability of wagons. New models have debuted during the past 5 years and therefore offer more opportunity at more brands to buy wagons. In addition to more modest cars such as the Volkswagen Golf Sportwagen, several luxury and performance brands are offering wagons today, such as Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Porsche, Jaguar, Volvo and Buick. (Bloomberg's headlines make the point that "crossovers are for the Kardashians," and wagons are just, well, classier.) This uptick in brand-name availability, as well as extremely well-executed design on most of the wagons currently available, has helped increase the segment's desirability. That, and its ability to better accomplish the same tasks at hand while standing out from the crossover and SUV crowd. Still, the posted numbers represent a small fraction of the total vehicles sold. According to the data, wagons only held a 1.4 percent market share in 2017, the segment's best recent year. Wagons hold a steadfast place in America's past, and they're writing an interesting new story. With the downturn in traditional cars, they may continue to create an unexpected narrative.

J.D. Power study sees new car dependability problems increase for first time since 1998

Wed, 12 Feb 2014

For the first time since 1998, J.D. Power and Associates says its data shows that the average number of problems per 100 cars has increased. The finding is the result of the firm's much-touted annual Vehicle Dependability Study, which charts incidents of problems in new vehicle purchases over three years from 41,000 respondents.
Looking at first-owner cars from the 2011 model year, the study found an average of 133 problems per 100 cars (PP100, for short), up 6 percent from 126 PP100 in last year's study, which covered 2010 model-year vehicles. Disturbingly, the bulk of the increase is being attributed to engine and transmission problems, with a 6 PP100 boost.
Interestingly, JDP notes that "the decline in quality is particularly acute for vehicles with four-cylinder engines, where problem levels increase by nearly 10 PP100." Its findings also noticed that large diesel engines also tended to be more problematic than most five- and six-cylinder engines.
