For bid is a 1995 Buick Roadmaster Limited Estate Wagon with 67k miles. 
 
Highlights: Tow package, 2.93 posi, Class 3 hitch with wiring, GM CD player.  Limited package includes leather seats with power lumber and tilt.  Good maintenance - recent full tuneup + new rear shocks + AC compressor and dryer.  Only aftermarket parts are the hitch, Koni adjustable front shocks and brand new top quality tint.
 
History: I am the third owner; the first owners were snowbirds in Winter Haven FL.  They sold the car in 2008 with 31k on it to a collector in the Atlanta, GA area who took great care of it and used it as his road trip car.  He sold it to me in the fall of 2012 with 63k on it.  He took meticulous care of it – stored in his garage, under a car cover, with the liftgate glass up to preserve the struts.  At 40k he had a full tuneup done (optispark, plugs & wires, water pump), and had the AC compressor and dryer replaced at the GM dealer.  He also had the rear air shocks replaced with GM factory airshocks and replaced the fronts with Koni adjustables so he could “get a slight amount more damping than stock but still match the rears.”   The rear axle fluid and limited slip additive was also replaced at 40k and the transmission was flushed and filter changed at 50k. 
I have put just shy of 4000 miles on the car, with the majority of that being several road trips.  After I bought the car, it was driven to my western VA where I stored it about a year, then finally drove it to upstate NY where it spent one summer.  Before the summer was over, I relocated to Huntsville, AL and had the car transported here.  I drove the wagon up to a show in Louisville KY and unfortunately we got caught in the rain on the way home.  Other than that the car hasn’t seen rain since I’ve had it.   I added a Buick CD player which works great.  I keep it stored in my climate-controlled garage with ethanol-free gas and take it out now and then to stretch its legs.
Maintenance-wise, I had the windows tinted to protect the interior using high quality stuff from Johnson Films, applied by the premier tinter in town who has done four of my other cars with no bubbles, fading or purpling.  The rear window was done in one piece.  I also changed the oil, greased the front suspension and had the car aligned.  I also installed a new battery – if you notice, the original battery blanket is still in place.  I searched 6 months before I bought this car.  Please see all the pictures – it is one of the nicest you will find.


NO RESERVE.

Condition Report 

ENGINE: Runs on all eight cylinders without smoking, missing or knocking. Engine runs at proper temperature. New battery & good charging system. Starts easy and runs strong.

TRANSMISSION: Performs beautifully. Engages gears quickly and shifts through all forward gears and reverse with good downshift and torque converter performance. Clean fluid with no burn odors.

EXTERIOR: Body: Body is in very nice shape with two small dimples on the hood and one behind the rear wheel on the bottom.  Two minor scuffs on the right front and rear corners – see pics. No body rust ever. There was one accident report, in 1998, with a bicycle according to the previous owner. Very good body overall. Paint: Paint is nice and shiny everywhere. All original paint except a few touch up spots as pictured on hood. Above average. Wood: Upper wood trim is all original, the only peeling of note is on the front fender spears as pictured. The side panel fake wood is in excellent shape with one mar on the RR door and a small bubble just above the chrome on the RF door. Otherwise, very nice and above average - still shiny and clear with no significant sun fading. Other: Lower stainless bright trim is very nice with a couple of dings here and there.  Rubber side trim is all there and all original. Undercarriage is extremely nice and all original, typical of a southeastern US / Florida car with very slight paint peeling on the fuel tank straps - see the pics. Underhood sheet metal, tailgate sill and door jambs have no rust as seen in pics. Aluminum wheels are in excellent shape.

INTERIOR: Interior of the car is in very nice shape as you'd expect of the low mileage. The only complaints are a small tear in the center console rear, a tiny tear on the passenger side seat control surround, and a small chip missing from the driver’s door panel handle insert (see pics). Dash has no cracks, rest of leather seating areas are in great shape, cargo deck carpet in great shape with no stains but the very edge corner is cracked. Steering wheel is in very nice shape and is original – no paint. Carpet is new and all four factory floormats are included. No smoke or pet odors. Very nice interior overall.

ELECTRICAL STUFF: All inspection items work (lights, horn, wipers, etc.) ALL power options work reliably, including power windows, power locks, power seats with power recliners, lumbar motors work but don’t seem to adjust the lumbar, hot heat and cold A/C, tilt, cruise, am/fm stereo cassette CD, power antenna, rear window release, rear wiper, keyless entry, twilight sentinel, intermittent wipers, and rear defroster.

DRIVEABILITY: Drives beautifully as you'd expect of the low miles. Steering is tight, alignment is good, suspension is tight. Brakes work well with good linings. Tires have about 50% tread remaining on a matched set of General Altimax radials with the rears having a slight amount of inner edge wear (hence why I had an alignment done).  Solid stock, quiet exhaust with no leaks. Check engine light is not lit (except at start up as it should.) 

I’ve had four Roadmaster wagons now, and this one is by far the nicest one I’ve ever owned and probably one of the nicest ones you’ll find.  I would not hesitate to drive it across country tomorrow.

Buick Regal, Hyundai Sonata

Mon, Apr 17 2017

Toyota is ramping up production of an all-new 2018 Camry and spending over $1 billion – with a "b" – at its Georgetown, Ky., plant. That investment speaks to the popularity of midsize sedans, despite sales inroads made by crossovers. While Accord and Camry are givens in the segment, less attention is paid to Buick's Regal and Hyundai's Sonata. And if shopping for a midsize sedan with a $30,000 budget, you should pay attention. Both offer a compelling combination of attributes and can be well equipped for that price point. Finally, both are due for either a major redesign (Regal) or aggressive freshening (Sonata) in the 2018 model year. Both Buick and Hyundai will be offering incentives 2017s, but Hyundai's program is more aggressive, with up to $6,000 in savings (as this is written). BUICK REGAL: For those seeking exclusivity at well below an "exclusive" price, there is the Regal. Designed by GM's Opel as the Insignia, the version sold stateside keeps most of its Eurocentric nature. It doesn't pretend to be an Audi or BMW, but it provides something more German than Volkswagen's Germany-by-way-of-Tennessee Passat. A Regal, in all-wheel-drive 'Regal' trim, supplies you with a turbocharged 2.0 liter and 6-speed automatic transmission. Its 259 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque propel the 3,600-pound Regal with authority and respectable efficiency. Despite its relatively low curb weight, the Regal feels substantial, with a heavy feel behind the wheel and a quiet authority going down the road. Inside, you'll find an interesting mix of Old World and New Detroit, with informative gauges, a center stack that dominates the instrument panel, supportive buckets up front and a reasonably spacious rear seat. The Regal's interior volume is respectable (97 cubic feet inside, while the trunk has 14 cubic feet), but this remains a better environment for young families or empty nesters. Those with a lot of kids or stuff should shop Buick's about-to-be-redesigned Enclave or midsize Envision. For the 2017 model year, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto have been added. The Driver Confidence 1 package (optional) includes Forward Collision Alert, Lane Departure Warning, Lane Change Alert, Side Blind Zone Alert, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, Following Distance Indicator and memory seats. Driver Confidence 2 has Collision Preparation with Collision Mitigation Braking and Full Speed Range Adaptive Cruise Control. It's all good stuff.

Buick: Odell Beckham Jr.

Mon, Feb 8 2016

An Opel droptop in Buick drag crashes a wedding. No one's quite sure who made the Cascada, but Emily Ratajkowski definitely got the bouquet. She channels Odell Beckham Jr., laying out to make the catch – and conveniently Beckham is actually there to jokingly shoot her down. Did Buick nail this one, or was it (as Beckham quips) "out of bounds?" Let us know.

2020 Buick Encore GX revealed as a bigger smaller crossover

Wed, May 29 2019

The crossover craze has taken root throughout the car industry, but especially at Buick. The company says that 90% of its sales are of the upright utilities. So it's no surprise the brand is adding yet another model to the line-up, the 2020 Buick Encore GX. Despite the name, the Encore GX doesn't appear to share anything with the current Encore, as GM says it uses a new platform. It's also larger than the regular Encore, though it's also smaller than the midsize Envision. One area in which its slightly bigger size benefits the GX is that it has nearly five more cubic feet of cargo space than the current Encore. Other details about the crossover are scant. Buick hasn't even said what engine or transmission will be used. Buick did say the Encore GX will feature automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection and lane-keep assist as standard features, with the rear-camera mirror as an option. The current Encore will continue to be sold alongside the Encore GX, and it won't be replaced with the version shown at the Shanghai Auto Show. Pricing and availability will be announced later, along with other vehicle details.
