Stunning all-original 1971 Buick Electra Limited 4 Door Hardtop with only 30,000 original Miles!  This is an amazing, rare find "top-of-the-line" Buick that runs and drives like a new car and that had only ONE OWNER untill I purchased the car for my private collection several years ago, where it has been kept in a climate-controlled, dark private storage building ever since, driven only for shows, etc.

 

OPTIONS/EQUIPMENT:

- All "Limited" trim exterior and interior upgrades (The "top-of-the-line" trim level/model for Buick Electras in 1971).

- All-original 455 CID V-8 engine with only 30,000 miles since new (runs and drives superb).

- Air conditioning (still works!)

- Power windows

- Cruise control

- Power front bench seat

- AM Radio (works fine)

- Electric rear defroster

- Power trunk release

- Cornering lamps

- Original front and rear factory floor mats

- Full-length body side moldings

- White wall radial tires

 

EXTERIOR:

- ALL Original "Willowgreen Metallic" laquer paint from the factory that still shines and gleams like new with no cracking.  (There are a number of places where the original, elderly owner touched up the paint with the correct, factory touch-up paint that are visible up close, but I have not addressed  any of that because I wanted to keep the car all original)

- No dents or body damage or rust - EVER . (Some minor dings visible only up close and minor corrosion on the very bottom of the car where there were rock chips over the years)

- Chrome is like new with no corrosion, hazing or pitting.

- Rare "steel top" model (vinyl top delete from factory).

- All glass like new condition.

 

INTERIOR:

- All Original broccade cloth interior in striking "bone" color - NO RIPS or CRACKS ANYWHERE!  (Even the original door panels are uncracked, which is very rare for these cars!)

- Dash and gauges/instruments are like new - no discoloration/pitting or fading, and everything is in working order.

- Headliner and carpets also in pristine condition.

 

MECHANICAL:

- This care runs and drives like new and is whisper quiet.

- To my knowlege, there have neen no prior mechanical repairs, except for routine oil/filter/fluid changes etc.

 

This is a one-of-a-kind collector car in all original condition with super low miles and in a striking color combination.  Doubtful there are any other comparable 71 Electras still left out there.  This is, however, a 40-plus year old car in original, unrestored condition that is actually driven so it is not a "perfect" 100 point museum piece, nor is it being held out as such.  Please ask any and all questions BEFORE bidding.  The car is available for inspection at my storage building in Northern Kentucky near the Cincinnati, Ohio International Airport so please make arrangements for any inspections BEFORE bidding.  I am not a dealer but a private collector so there are no warranties, express or implied, and the car is being sold as-is, where-is.  Please check on all necessary shipping/transportation costs BEFORE bidding, as all such costs will be the responsibility of the buyer (although I will gladly work with your shipper to make the car and title available after full payment is received).  Thank you.

2018 Buick Enclave launches luxury Avenir trim

Wed, Apr 12 2017

Remember the shapely Buick Avenir Concept from the 2015 Detroit Auto Show? Well, this isn't that, even if they both share the same name. Meet the Buick Enclave Avenir, a new trim built atop Buick's redesigned 2018 Enclave seven-passenger crossover. Think of it as Buick's version of GMC's Denali trim and you'll be on the right track. As the brand's new top trim level, everything that's normally optional in the Enclave comes standard in the Avenir, along with a bunch of exclusive content. And this is just the first application of the Avenir package for Buick – expect the rest of the TriShield brand's products to get a similar makeover in due time. All Avenir models from Buick will get what the brand is calling a three-dimensional mesh grille with a new set of chrome wings. From there, the Enclave edition bundles unique pearl nickel 20-inch wheels, a Rear Camera Mirror like the one seen from Cadillac, and a new kind of LED headlamps that use something called Evonik Acrylite lighting technology. An in-car air ionizer promises to keep the cabin smelling fresh. The rest of the Enclave package sounds pretty good, too. It's got a standard 3.6-liter V6 engine with 302 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque, mated to a nine-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is optional. A tow rating of 5,000 pounds is standard fare for this class, as are seven seats inside. A frameless eight-inch LCD screen and integrated 4G wireless connectivity are other family-friendly highlights. We expect more Avenir-branded models to make their appearance in the Buick showroom soon. In the meantime, check out the Enclave Avenir in the image gallery above, and stay tuned for more from New York. Related Video:

Buick really wants us to know the new Cascada convertible won't leak

Thu, Apr 16 2015

Quality 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.

Buick Regal GS and troupe of basketball dribblers make great beats

Wed, 02 Apr 2014

The 166 videos posted by YouTube music video maestro Kurt Hugo Schneider have been watched almost half a billion times. When Coke wanted to do something musically inclined and a little different, it called KHS, and the result was the video Little Talks.
Buick appears to be the next blue chip in line, and KHS' melodic celebration of the 259-horsepower Regal GS is called Epic Basketball + Car Beat. In it, a red Regal sits at center court in Venice Beach, California while a cast of ridiculous dribblers make music with and around the sedan.
We'll let the music speak for itself, which it does quite well in the video below.
