Buick and Oldsmobile introduced the "Aeroback" fastback bodies on the mid-size G body cars in 1978 in response to the hatchback models being imported from Europe and Japan. The American buying public wasn't quite ready for this radical style. As a result, they were only available for three model years. Sales numbers for those years were very low, especially for the Buick Century, so they are a very rare sight today.
This example is a true survivor which was in the possesion of the original owner up until very recently. It was sold new in Coshocton, Ohio and lived the majority of its life in that quaint little town. All original documentation is intact as well as the original keys in the original leather key case from the selling dealer. It is equipped with the one-year only 305 cubic inch V8 which starts instantly and runs smoothe. The automatic transmission shifts crisply and the brakes are great. Routine service has just been done and its performance instills confidence. All systems work as they should, although the cold weather has prevented me from testing the air conditioning.
Considering that the car is 35 years old, it is a remarkable survivor. The paint is over 90% original and still shows well. There are no rips or tears in the original upholstery or carpet and the dash has no cracks. Some of the plastic trim has gotten brittle with age and does show some cracking and some of the exterior chrome has some deterioration. Overall, it is a wonderfully original example of a rarely seen model.
This car is a great entry level collectible which is easy and reasonable to maintain. It's a true artifact of a transistional time for U.S. manufacturers. Lots of retro-cool for not a lot of money, and still a very usable car. This would get you instant celebrity status with members of the Brown Car Appreciation Society. Personal inspections are welcome. Feel free to ask any questions through the ebay system. The lucky winning bidder must make payment in full within six days of auctions' end. As with any car of this age, it is sold as-is. Have fun and good luck!

2019 Buick Envision starts just under $33,000
Mon, Feb 26 2018Buick has announced that prices for its new 2019 Envision will start at $33,985 (including destination), positioning the refreshed compact SUV right between its best-selling Encore entry-level crossover and more upmarket Enclave and taking aim at competitors including the Lincoln MKC and Acura RDX. The Envision will be offered in five trim levels — Envision, Preferred, Essence, Premium and Premium II, which starts at $45,590 — when the crossover goes on sale this spring. Prices exclude tax, title, license, dealer fees and optional equipment. We told you recently about the optional new nine-speed Hydra-Matic 9T50 automatic transmission and 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder on the top two trim levels. The upgraded engine offers 252 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. The standard setup remains the 197-hp 2.5-liter inline four-cylinder engine making 147 lb-ft of torque and mated to a six-speed automatic, offered in front- or all-wheel drive. The crossover gets a new winged Buick emblem on the grille, new headlamps and newly sculpted front and rear facias, plus optional 19-inch wheels. It also gets a Buick-first tire-fill alert that signals when a tire has reached the recommended pressure level. Standard technology features include an in-vehicle air ionizer to eliminate odors, a switch to turn off its fuel-saving engine stop feature, rear-park assist, an 8-inch diagonal infotainment system and 4G LTE WiFi hotspot. By dropping the starting MSRP by nearly $1,000, GM says the Envision is now better positioned against its top-selling Encore (starting MSRP $22,990), for which nearly 60 percent of buyers come from outside the automaker's stable of brands.

2017 Buick Encore freshens up for New York debut
Tue, Mar 22 2016Buick has rolled in to the New York Auto Show this year with a revised version of the Encore, bringing with it a series of revisions to what's billed as "America's most popular small SUV." Most obvious is the new front end that adopts the brand's latest design language with a fresh grille and headlamps – full LEDs on top-spec models. The taillights are also new, the exhaust tips are now chromed, the door mirrors color-keyed to the bodywork, and of course it all rides on a new set of wheels. The updates continue inside, where you'll find new trim, new gauges, and an eight-inch color touchscreen display to run the IntelliLink system that now supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as well as OnStar 4G LTE with on-board wifi. Buyers will be able to choose between five trim levels and between front- or all-wheel drive. There are three new exterior paint choices as well. The Encore is based closely on the European-market Opel Mokka, which was similarly revealed in updated form at the Geneva Motor Show just last month. In Buick guise, the Encore has only been on the market now for three years, but already stands as the brand's top seller. Last year it alone accounted for nearly one in every three vehicles Buick sold, and has risen 34 percent so far this year as well. Subtle though they may be, these updates ought to keep the Encore at the top of its game for another few years to come.
