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.

Buick really wants us to know the new Cascada convertible won't leak
Thu, Apr 16 2015Quality testing on the factory floor is nothing to joke about. Automakers need to make sure the work being done is up to snuff, and that means some extensive checks. For Buick, that means using a lot of water for each of its Cascada convertibles. Each vehicle that rolls off the floor is subject to a high-pressure, ten-minute soaking that sprays nearly 20 gallons of water from each nozzle during every bath, just to guarantee the fabric roof hasn't sprung any leaks. For some reason, Buick has chosen to show off this testing with the help of what we imagine is the Gorton's Fisherman's baby cousin. Check out the strange testing video, available up top.
2025 Buick Enclave changes trim names and pricing
Sun, Jun 2 2024Buick loves to fiddle with its trim names. In 2020, the Enclave offered Base, Essence, Premium and Avenir trims. Two years later, the trim steps went Preferred, Essence, Premium and Avenir. Two years later, in 2022, only Essence, Premium, and Avenir remained. And the 2025 Enclave has done another presto change-o, with Essense becoming Preferred, and Premium switching to Sport Touring. And while we knew that, what we didn't know were the prices for these reshuffled trims, which GM Authority sniffed out. MSRPs for the 2025 Enclave after the $1,395 destination charge, and their differences from 2024, are: Preferred: $46,395 ($1,100) Sport Touring: $48,795 (New trim) Avenir: $59,395 ($500) These are all front-drivers, sending power to the rear wheels adds $2,000 to the price. The Sport Touring costs $2,490 more than the entry-level Preferred, nearly 40% more than the current option price. Also, since it's a spiffier version of the Preferred, the Sport Touring is $3,800 less than the current middle trim, the 2024 Enclave Premium.   Mechanically, the Enclave gets the same turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder as the Acadia and Traverse as its sole engine option. Output comes to 328 horsepower and 326 pound-feet of torque, sent through an eight-speed automatic. Towing capacity is 5,000 pounds, All Enclaves except the Avenir get a standard 30-inch instrument and infotainment display, floating center console, adjustable ambient lighting, wireless device charging and a 12-speaker. The range-topper takes the sound system to 16 speakers, adds a panoramic sunroof, front seat ventilation and massage function, rear seat heating, a head-up display, plus adaptive shocks working larger 22-inch wheels. The Sport Touring (ST), as one might expect, adopts black trim, including in the grille, and black 20-inch wheels. Buick added standard ADAS perks like automatic emergency braking with intersection support, blind-spot monitoring with steering assist, plus lane-keep assist as standard. And Super Cruise will be an option. All told, it's a healthy improvement in features for relatively small price increases.
GM reworking mandatory OnStar plans for some 2024 models
Tue, Mar 21 2023For the 2023 model year, GM added its OnStar and Connected Services plan as standard equipment to a large number of Buick, GMC, and Chevrolet vehicles. Folding the $1,500 retail price into the MSRPs of models like the GMC Acadia and Buick Encore plumped up prices beyond the usual year-on-year bumps. Looks like there's a reversal in play for 2024, GM Authority reporting that many of the models fitted with OnStar and Connected Services — now called OnStar Premium — will step down to three years of OnStar Remote Access standard.  OnStar Remote Access comes with these features: Remote key fob, vehicle locate, and remote personalization through mobile and in-vehicle apps. Three additional features can be added to the plan: OnStar Guardian, in-vehicle hotspot, and Super Cruise. Owners can also upgrade to OnStar Premium if they choose. Higher trims like Buick's Avenir and GMC's Denali, plus the GMC Hummer and the Cadillac Escalade will retain OnStar Premium as standard equipment. That suite starts with Remote Access and adds: Automatic crash response, stolen vehicle assistance and recovery, OnStar Guardian, in-vehicle app access, unlimited streaming, three years of Super Cruise on vehicles with the hardware, and six months of SiriusXM radio. The Escalade puts a cherry on top with three years Sirius XM instead of six months. The Remote Access plan normally charges $14.99 per month. We're not sure yet if GM will subtract the cost of OnStar Premium from the MSRP and add the $540 for OnStar Remote Access, or if the trial period comes free of charge. Even if that's what happens, the change could take nearly $1,000 off the MSRP of a car like the GMC Acadia before any 2024 increases. We'll know more as the 2024MY models roll out and prices are announced. Related Video 2022 Buick Enclave Avenir revealed
