1996 Buick Roadmaster Limited Collector's Edition Sedan 4-door 5.7l Fully Loaded on 2040-cars
Bolton, Massachusetts, United States
Up for sale is my almost showroom new 1996 Buick Roadmaster Limited Sedan with only 68,000 original miles. The car is the collectors edition as are all 1996 Roadmasters. The collectors edition badging is a 1996 only designation saluting the final year for the traditional full size, rear wheel drive, body on frame cars from General Motors. This car of course shared its underpinnings with the legendary Impala SS and Cadillac Fleetwoods of the same year. The engine is indeed the 350 cubic inch, 5.7 Liter LT1 motor found in the Impala SS, the Camaro Z28, and most importantly the Corvette. The motor makes 260 horse power and a whopping 335 foot pounds of torque, a torque figure that took the GT mustang until 2011 to surpass! The engine is mated to the 4 speed 4L60E automatic transmission which is also the same unit found in the Corvette. The rear axel is the indestructible GM 8.5 inch 10 bolt with highway and MPG friendly 2.56 gear ratio and a very rare factory posi-traction option (RPO code G80).
The car is all but immaculate, it really has to be seen to be believed, garaged since day one in the original owners home. I STILL HAVE THE ORIGINAL TITLE ISSUED IN 1995 when the car was sold brand new. I purchased the vehicle roughly 6 months ago with intentions of driving it year round. The car however is simply too nice to subject to the harsh winters in Massachusetts. I've had tons of these cars and it simply is the nicest one I've ever seen in person since I purchased my first in 2007. The interior is in as new condition. I mean there is not a tear in a seat or even any cracking. The seats are absolutely perfect which is impossible to find on heated leather. There is absolutely no sun fade anywhere, the dash, the trim, the paint or the bumpers. All of the grey plastic trim on the faux chrome exterior trim is perfectly intact, not faded or shrunk. Everything in the car works correctly including the CD player, all electrics, I've cold AC, automatic headlamps, the extremely rare factory trunk pull down, heated seats, and most importantly all windows function and none ever fall off their tracks. The car has almost every option available, and is in like new condition in the extremely desirable triple burgundy color combo, with incredibly low mileage at only 68k. Don't pass this one up as I really think it may be the cleanest interior and body of any Roadmaster for sale in the country. Call or Text anytime 978 875 0425 for questions or if you want to see the vehicle. |

J.D. Power: Mini, Lexus again offer most satisfying sales experience
Thu, 29 Nov 2012JD Power has released its annual Sales Satisfaction Index Study, and once again Mini and Lexus have taken top honors. Overall, buyers are more satisfied with the auto-buying sales experience than they were last year, with those surveyed reporting an average score of 664 points on a 1,000-point scale. That's up from 648 in 2011. Dealer satisfaction also increased by five points over last year as well.
All told, Lexus brought home an index score of 737, which was high enough to put it atop the luxury brands for the second year in a row. JD Power says Infiniti came in second in that category with a score of 728 and Cadillac rounded out the podium with it's rating of 725. Speaking of Infiniti, that brand saw the single largest jump in sales satisfaction of any brand on the survey, popping up 52 index points over 2011.
Among mass-market brands, Mini ranked highest with a score of 712, followed closely by Buick with 706 and GMC farther down the line with 683. You can check out the full press release below for more information.
Is Buick America's most daring mainstream car brand?
Wed, Jan 21 2015Considering Buick as an adventurous automaker seems a little odd at first thought. But with little fanfare over the last several years, the marque is transforming itself from a brand often associated with elderly drivers to a nameplate willing to take chances in niche segments. The gamble is already paying off with 2014 sales up 11.4 percent in the US to 228,963 cars. Given recent product launches, this experimentation is only likely to continue. The key to the transformation at Buick is its willingness to explore the so-called white space, according to Automotive News; the term refers to niches in the market without rivals as a challenge. In addition, the brand's position in the near-luxury space means that its products are cross-shopped by a large swath of customers. Without having a specific competitor, Buick has more room to experiment within its segment. "Designers love designing Buicks because it's not a paint-by-numbers brand," said Andrew Smith, director of design at Buick and Cadillac, to Automotive News. The company's strategy of going where others haven't is best exemplified by the Encore. The subcompact, luxury crossover came to market early, and Buick found serious success with it. The tiny CUV was the automaker's fastest growing model last year with a 53 percent gain and 48,892 units sold. With the test a triumph, the Encore recently got a sibling in the US in the form of the Chevrolet Trax. The upcoming Cascada is taking a similar approach. The non-sporty convertible segment is practically empty in the US, and this slightly redesigned product from Opel has the opportunity to become a leader in its niche. Of course, Buick's biggest recent surprise was the Avenir concept at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show. The car's swooping shape and use of materials earned it two EyesOn Design Awards against some tough competition. While the company's intentions for this flagship sedan aren't entirely clear yet, the vehicle does "test some of the future design language that will come on the next generation of Buicks," according to brand boss Duncan Aldred to Automotive News, which is definitely something to look forward to.
