You are bidding on the 1981 Buick Riviera featured in Eminem's "Headlights" music video. This car was chosen to be in Spike Lee's production of Eminem's music video "Headlights" which was filmed in and around Detroit's Marusso Park. The car is featured in multiple shots in the video, including being shown in the driveway of Eminem's home in the video, as well as being driven through the streets of Detroit; both the exterior and interior of this Riviera appear in the music video. This is the perfect car for both Eminem and Buick fans alike; this car will forever be a part of automotive and music history. I can provide proof that this car is in the upcoming Spike Lee / Eminem Music Video upon request; I cannot publish them here due to a non-disclosure agreement. There is also an article in the Rolling Stone about this music video "Eminem and Spike Lee Teaming Up for "Headlights" Video" published by Miriam Coleman on April 6th of 2014. CONTACT STEVE: (862)-228-4480 This front wheel drive personal luxury car features a smooth running Oldsmobile 307 V8 engine and a smooth-shifting automatic transmission. It has both power steering and power breaks, all which function as if new. You aren't going to have any mechanical problems with this baby, this Riviera starts up right away without hesitation and runs great every time - in fact, the engine is extremely quiet, and the ride of the car smooth and luxurious as well - just as you should expect from a classic Buick. The suspension is soft, and the ride quality unsurpassed. The transmission shifts smoothly and never slips. The engine does not smoke, there are no leaks of any fluids. I promise you will be impressed with the condition and reliability of the power-train. No need for an engine rebuild - just drive this car directly to the car show, or make it your daily driver. The body of the car is in very good condition, originally a North Carolina car, and garage kept, this car does not know the snow and ice of winter, the under-body is rust-free. You will not find any rust holes, rot, or anything of the sort underneath this car. It is my understanding that this car was garage kept, and as you can see from the pictures, it is in great shape for its age. There are no dents or dings anywhere on the car, the chrome is all there and in great condition, there are no chips or scratches on the windshield or any of the other glass windows. Overall the paint is in great shape as well, there is no sun-fading or other discoloration, and the baby-blue exterior paired with the white vinyl top (also in great condition) makes for a fantastic and classic look that turns heads everywhere I go. The Chrome wheels are also in great shape, and the tires are fairly new as well and are not in need of replacement. The breaks work very well, the suspension is in great shape and makes for an extremely smooth ride quality only a Buick can give you. This Riviera also has a self-leveling trunk feature, which automatically adjusts the ride height as weight is added to, or removed from the trunk of the vehicle Inside, the car is nearly perfect, with the only exception being the most common - the headliner is drooping a bit, and has been pinned back up. Everything else is, however, in near perfect shape, no rips, no tears, no stains on any of the seats or other fabric upholstery. The plush blue interior looks and feels like new, the wood-grain dash is also beautiful and in great shape, there are no scratches or cracks or other damage to any of it. The rest of the blue vinyl dash is likewise in great shape, no fading or cracking of any sort. All of the chrome knobs in the interior of the vehicle are there and in great shape. The radio works without problem, and even has the optional auto-reverse cassette player in addition to the AM/FM radio, and all of the speakers work as if new, the sound quality is great, and it even has controls to adjust the levels to the front/back speakers, as well as a trebel/bass control. The car has climate control air-conditioning which also works without hesitation, the heat comes out nice and hot, all of the fans work great. The carpeting in the car is also without flaws, the floors are solid, the door panels are without damage, the steering wheel looks great as well. All of the power options work perfectly. The rear window defroster works great as well. There is a glove box with the original owners manual inside it, and a small storage compartment between the front seats for additional convenience. The car has more ash trays and cigarette lighters than you'll know what to do with, literally one for every passenger - this car, however, has never been smoked in- it smells as clean as it looks. This Riviera also has all of the power options, including 8-way power seats (both driver and passenger sides), power windows, power door-locks, cruise control, rear window defroster, auto-delay windshield wipers, light sentinel, and even cornering lights. Inside the trunk you will find a spare tire and the jack. Also included are the original floor mats (both front and rear). All in all, you are bidding on a 1981 Buick Riviera personal luxury coupe with real V8 power, and front wheel drive that can handle winter driving conditions if you need to. Overall, this car is in great condition, the only flaws are the headliner- as described above- and a couple tiny spots around the base of the vinyl roof where there is a small amount of surface rust - but it is very minor as you can see from the pictures. The car is complete (not missing any parts) and always given regular oil changes and maintenance. You will not find a better 81 Riviera at this price. The car is located on Harsens Island in Michigan, feel free to come see and drive it for yourself before bidding if you wish. You can contact me at (862)-228-4480, call or text me anytime, my name is Steve, and I'd be happy to answer any questions you have about the car, or to provide you with more photographs or information at your request. I am happy to sell Internationally, and am located a very short distance from Port Huron from which the car could be shipped anywhere in the world. I would also be happy to personally deliver the vehicle to you for the cost of gas, as I have complete confidence that this car could be driven across the country if you wanted to.

I AM WILLING TO ACCEPT CASH, CASHIER'S CHECK, PERSONAL CHECKS (once cleared), AS PAYMENT, BUT I DO NOT ACCEPT PAY-PAL AS THERE ARE TO MANY INTERNET SCAMS OPERATING THROUGH IT - DON'T EVEN ASK ME - other than that, I am very accommodating, and am willing to work with you to help and assist you in any way I can - just call me and we can work something out.

2023 Buick Envision prices up by at least $1,900 over 2022
Sat, Sep 10 2022When Buick uploads the configurator for the 2023 Envision, shoppers will find the mid-sized crossover more expensive than the 2022 model. GM Authority got hold of next year's pricing, revealing that MSRPs will go up by $1,900 on the bottom two trims and $5,810 on the top Avenir trim. The new math, which includes the destination charge increasing $200 to $1,395, erases the discounts that arrived with 2022 Envision pricing earlier this year. Retail cost for the coming Avenir with front-wheel drive after the destination charge will be: Preferred FWD: $34,795 Essence FWD: $38,895 Avenir FWD: $47,055 Adding all-wheel drive means another $1,800 on the Essence and Avenir. Doing the same for the entry-level Preferred means pushing MSRP up by $3,650 because of the $1,850 Convenience Package is mandatory when turning the rear axle. The $1,900 upcharge for Preferred and Essence entails $1,500 for three years of OnStar and Connected Services, GM making the telematics service standard on the Cadillac, GMC, and Buick lineups as well as the Chevrolet Corvette for next year. That leaves the remaining $400 as a pure model-year price bump. The much larger rise for the Avenir is because it comes with a lot more equipment. For 2023 this trim makes the $1,965 and Technology Package II and $1,450 Panoramic Power Moonroof standard. The Technology Package adds enhanced LED headlights, adaptive cruise control, adaptive dampers, enhanced automatic emergency braking and parking assist, and a rear camera mirror with washer. Those bundles represent $3,415 of the upcharge, adding $1,500 for OnStar takes that to $4,915, leaving $895 as the model-year price bump. The rest should be carryover, save for potential changes to the exterior color menu. If there's any big news for the model next year, it would be the potential arrival of an Envision GX that would add about eight inches of overall length, with two of that between the wheels.

Last-ever Buick Grand National heads to Barrett-Jackson auction
Tue, Dec 28 2021This 1987 Buick Grand National brought the curtains down on a heap of General Motors history. When this black beauty rolled down the line at 5 p.m. on December 11, 1987, it represented the end of manufacturing at GM's Pontiac Assembly Plant after 60 years building cars. This was the last car to sit on GM's G-Body platform, having supported legendary names like Monte Carlo, Cutlass Supreme, and Regal. And this was the last-ever Buick Grand National, a big coupe that in just five years on the market had helped make the Buick Regal lineup an object of sincere lust among enthusiasts. Powered by a 3.8-liter turbocharged and intercooled 3.8-liter V6, the engine made 245 horsepower and 355 pound-feet of torque. The only car above it in the lineup was the exceptionally rare GNX, which made 276 hp and 360 lb-ft. The Buick Grand National is headed to the Barrett-Jackson auction block in Scottsdale next month. Louisiana resident Bob Colvin bought this car from the factory. The Drive spoke to Colvin, who explained that then-GM President Roger Smith told him he could have the penultimate Grand National, but Buick planned to put the last car on display. When Colvin arrived at the plant, though, Colvin said the plant manager told him, "I'm running this plant and you've gone through the effort to be here. It will be a real celebration," and got him the last car made. As proof, a GM film crew followed the car down the line, plant workers and two GM execs signed various parts of the engine, including current GM President Mark Reuss. The car comes with all of the autographs and signage the autoworkers created to go with the car, as well as the original window sticker. Colvin and his wife built an addition onto their house to display the car. Save for a trip to the Buick Centennial Celebration in 2003, the Buick has lived in its special place all its life and has just 33 miles on the odometer. Behind the new-car plastic that shrouds the interior, the only flaw appears to be a tiny crack in the steering wheel center cap where a bolt might have been overtorqued. The car is being offered with no reserve, the pre-sale estimate landing right around the $500,000 mark. That would about double recent auction sales for low-mileage GNX's this year, but there's every reason to believe this car's one-of-one place in history could get auction paddles waving.
Buick teases electric concept crossover for China
Mon, Apr 9 2018Buick released a teaser image of a new all- electric concept SUV it's calling the Enspire. It'll bow at Buick Brand Night on April 17 in Wuzhen, Zhejiang, and be on display to the public at the Beijing auto show later in the month. Buick says only that the Enspire "leverages GM's global resources and is an exploration of design and new technologies. It is the brand's latest example of innovation and application of future electric smart mobility." The darkened, right rear three-quarter shot shows a rounded rear fascia, a narrow tail lamp that stretches the length of the tailgate and a third brake light on the roof spoiler. While this concept is clearly aimed at China, GM Authority notes that General Motors previously filed to trademark the "Enspire" name in the U.S. in 2015. GM CEO Mary Barra outlined the company's electrification plans for investors in November and included a slide of an unbadged crossover under the title "Leveraging existing BEV platform to expand in near term," which some are speculating could be this Enspire concept. It also suggests that Buick could be developing a vehicle based on the Chevrolet Bolt platform. GM plans to l aunch 20 new EVs by 2023, targeting 1 million electric-vehicle sales by 2026. Buick is GM's best-selling brand in China, comprising about 1.2 million vehicles sold in 2017. Buick last year showed off the Velite 5, an extended-range hybrid based on the Chevrolet Volt, as a production car for China. Related Video:
