Absolutely the best car I have ever owned. I bought this car in 2002 with 73,000 miles on it. It has been a great driver with low maintenance costs. I have too many cars with another on the way. I need to make room. The local Recycle Yard will give me $400 for the car.
Interested ??? Send me a message and I'll post more pics and details.
Ok, Roadie fans. Messages received, more info...
Engine - Runs great. Quiet, no leaks. It's the 5.7 throttle body engine... very reliable (more so, than the LT1).
Transmission - Shifts fine, no leaks. It's the 4L60. The lock-up torque converter began to shudder a few thousand miles ago. I disconnected it.
Rear axle - No issues.
I installed a Class 3 hitch and an electric Brake Controller many years ago before I bought my Chevy Suburban. I towed a car trailer maybe a dozen times or so.
Power EVERYTHING on this car WORKS........Windows, Locks, Mirrors, Seats, Cruise, Trunk Release........even the Power Antenna.
Heat is HOT.........AC is COLD.
I've stayed with UNIROYAL tires... same as the factory. I don't think the spare tire has ever been on the ground.
........before I forget... I have ALL the side moldings from car. They are cleaned up and I have a roll of 3M tape to reinstall.
I will post more PICS as soon as possible.
What would make me give up my Roadie.........a pampered 2004 Buick Park Avenue from my older Brother. Love my Buicks.

After 21 years, the paint is going away. The right rear quarter panel has rust issues. The power antenna water drains here... so, what a surprise. Just recently, the paint on the hood has started to peel.
05-23-13 Interior pics added.......
Interior - The factory velour interior is very soft. It does need a good cleaning. There are no rips, tears or holes in the seats... only light wear. The material around the rear glass is deteriorating from sunlight and moisture. I think the rear glass needs to be resealed.
Trunk - Water leaks into the trunk. I think it is from around the rear glass. Note the rust spots in the trunk pic. When I first noticed water in the trunk, I took out the trunk liner and spare cover. They are in great shape. I never got around to fixing the leak.
Also included with the car is the GM Service Manual.
Thanks for looking.

2016 Buick Cascada convertible isn't afraid of Detroit's snow
Mon, Jan 12 2015It's the great irony of introducing a convertible in Detroit – while the assembled media might look at the car and imagine warm weather and clear skies, the atmosphere outside is anything but. Such was the case Sunday as Buick rolled out the 2016 Cascada in Detroit's Eastern Market. Snow didn't dampen the atmosphere, though, as we clapped eyes on the sleek, Astra-based convertible for the first time. While this is far from the first product Buick has borrowed from General Motors' European operations, unlike previous vehicles, changes for the Cascada were kept to a minimum. There is no waterfall grille or four-way portholes, which Buick was sure to install when converting the Insignia and Mokka to the Regal and Encore. Then again, neither of these styling treatments were really necessary, as the Cascada remains a handsome and stylish offering. Its cabin is typical of other Buicks, and features a few too many buttons on the center stack. Still, a thick-rimmed, flat-bottomed steering wheel, similar to what's found in the Verano, is both attractive and functional, while the perforated leather seats looks quite comfortable, as well. Take a look at our gallery of live images, which includes shots of the Cascada with the top up and down, and then head back to our original post on the new convertible for all the mechanical details.
1969 Chevrolet Chevelle vs 1987 Buick GNX in Generation Gap showdown
Wed, 15 Oct 2014Generation Gap generally tries to adhere to a theme for each episode, and for the final video from the Lingenfelter collection, the series might have its best idea yet - limited-production muscle cars from General Motors.
On one side you get a 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle COPO, and it's an absolute sleeper. Other than the SS wheels, this classic coupe looks practically bone stock, at least until the engine fires up. Under the hood is a 427-cubic-inch (7.0-liter) V8 making a claimed 425 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. This was the sole year for the COPO package on the Chevelle, and Chevy only made about 323 of them.
The Chevelle's challenger is almost as rare and arguably just as cool. The 1987 Buick Grand National GNX looks just as mean today as when new. It eschews a traditional muscular V8 in favor of a 3.8-liter turbo V6 making a claimed 276 hp and 360 lb-ft, although that number is supposedly a bit underrated. Also, just 547 examples of the GNX version were ever built making it quite a collector's item too.
MotorWeek remembers the nearly forgotten Buick Reatta
Thu, Feb 18 2016The Reatta was Buick's failed experiment to take on European competitors with its own two-seat luxury coupe and convertible. The model only lasted a few years, and US customers didn't see another droptop from the brand until the Cascada. The latest MotorWeek Retro Review takes a look back at the short-lived roadster and remembers it quite fondly. Host John Davis calls the 1990 Reatta droptop "one of the best looking convertibles ever." His sentiment seems a little hyperbolic, but the roadster is definitely an attractive machine by the standards of the time. The smooth front end and pop-up headlights are reminiscent of Japanese sports cars of era, and the profile with the top down is elegant. There are weaknesses, though. The manual roof mechanism appears cumbersome to operate, and the crude digital instruments, which simulate physical dials, make the cabin look too dated. Other than a complaint about over-boosted power steering, MotorWeek enjoys how the Reatta drives, too. Buick's roadster is largely forgotten today, but such glowing praise suggests it deserves to be better remembered. Check out this Retro Review to look back on this interesting experiment from the early '90s. Related Video:
