This is a 1987 Buick Regal "Grand National" 3.8L Turbocharged Intercooled tribute/clone. The car started its life as a clean, rust free loaded 87 Regal and has since been cloned into a Grand National. The car is driven daily, runs and drives perfect with only 120k miles. The car has an older paint with chips and flaws but still looks pretty good as you can see in the pictures but not a show car by any means. A/C blows ice cold, Sony CD player with iPod jack and remote. This is as close to a GN that you will get minus the turbocharger. The naturally aspirated 3.8L V6 gets great gas mileage and the car gets a thumbs up gesture multiple time a day! You can not pull into a gas station without several people coming over to check her out. Really nice interior showing only minor wear (thumbnail size tears in drivers seat). This car needs nothing but a new home. Drive the car as it is, install a turbocharger, or maybe even do a V8 swap. No trades offers please. The car has OEM Grand National hood, GN spoiler, GN air dams, GN wheels, GN emblems, GN coil springs, GN front and rear sway bars, etc. New tint, new floor mats, four new fiberglass bumper fillers installed. I have more into the parts on the car than I'm selling the entire car for. Also, I will include with the sale a matching center console with floor shifter. The car starts right up, runs like a champ and all the lights, wipers, turn signals, hi/low beams, parking lights, etc. work as they should although horn is not. Drive her anywhere. I just did a 12 hour trip this past week (630 miles) in the car and she ran absolutely perfect! This is a great car for a fraction of the cost of a real Grand National. Nobody will ever know the difference unless you pop the hood. Please note, the GN is being sold "as is" and "where is" to the highest bidder so if you are not sure about something then please ask. It is the bidders responsibility to inspect the vehicle personally before the auction ends, just send me a message and we can set up a time for you to view the car in person. Also, I do have the car for sale locally so in the event it is sold, I will end the auction. Thanks for your interest. Bid to win, clean and clear title in hand.

Why Buick's Encore wasn't a Chevy

Wed, 31 Oct 2012

Buick is taking a gamble with its 2013 Encore. General Motors' near-luxury brand has enjoyed great success attracting conquest buyers to its larger Enclave crossover, but it has never offered something quite like this small CUV.
Very early signs suggest that the gamble might be working. According to Mark Reuss, President of General Motors, the automaker expected about 1,500 initial orders from its dealers for the Encore, but it's tracking closer to 9,000 units. Alluding to the fact that historically, Buick has shared similar products with GM's other brands, Reuss says that Buick dealers are "thrilled to have an exclusive." The automaker already markets almost identical models in other markets as the Opel/Vauxhall Mokka and Chevrolet Trax, but The General's other brands won't offer a twin to the new baby Buick.
The new Encore is based on the Gamma architecture that underpins the Chevrolet Sonic, and it shares the economy car's available turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine. With standard front-wheel drive and available all-wheel drive, GM says its Encore will be pitted against competitors like the BMW X1 and Audi Q3, both of which are much more expensive but also much more powerful.

2020 Buick Enclave adds Sport Touring trim, tweaks tech

Wed, Jul 10 2019

With its redesign for 2018, the Buick Enclave added the fancy Avenir trim level. Now the 2020 Enclave moves a bit in the other direction with a new Sport Touring model. The Sport Touring package is based on the Essence trim level, and consists of a body-color grille surround in place of chrome, and special 20-inch wheels that combine a bright finish with darker insets. The package doesn't touch the 310-horsepower V6 or the Enclave's suspension, so this development is hardly one to threaten the Ford Explorer ST or the Dodge Durango SRT8. Instead, it is perhaps a baby step toward an Enclave Gran Sport, although we might rather see the Regal TourX wagon move in that direction. Other Enclave news falls into the more traditional Buick wheelhouse. There's a new message function and power lumbar adjustment for the Premium and Avenir models. GM's HD rear vision camera — in which the rear-view mirror can switch to show a wide-angle camera feed — is newly available, as is an HD surround-view feature. In other tech developments, the standard 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system gains new capabilities, now supporting connected navigation and Sirius XM's higher-level 360L service, both of which require a subscription. The 2020 Buick Enclave rolls quietly into dealerships this summer, with an asking price of $41,195.

Here are all the cars GM is axing as part of its restructuring

Tue, Nov 27 2018

GM plans to kill off a couple of great and a few meh cars as part of its restructuring. Here's a rundown of all the cars being phased out of production. None of the vehicles GM axed were SUVs or crossovers. Instead, it was an action reminiscent of what Ford recently decided to do by discontinuing U.S. sales every Blue Oval sedan. GM just didn't explicitly say, "We're killing our cars," like Ford did — probably a smart move by GM. Keep scrolling down to see the full list of deceased GM models. Chevrolet Volt This one was the most surprising of all the cars GM decided to can, primarily because cars with plugs are supposed to be our future. However, maybe consumer demand just isn't quite there yet for a plug-in like the Volt. We came up with all sorts of ideas for what was to blame for the untimely demise of the Volt, so go check that out for a full breakdown of the situation. Cadillac CT6 Here's another car we'll be sad to see go. Cadillac's flagship sedan was such a joy to drive, and it served as the conduit to deliver GM's semi-autonomous Super Cruise system, which still hasn't been surpassed by any other company's technology in our books, even Tesla's Autopilot. That being said, GM does plan to produce the CT6 until March, with the last cars coming off the line set to be twin-turbo V8 V-Series models. If it's going to go, this seems like a pretty great way to make an exit. We'll be patiently awaiting the next flagship Cadillac once this one finally fades away. Chevrolet Impala The Impala is actually a pretty good car. It doesn't sell terribly, and we think it's a completely satisfactory car to drive. However, people would rather have a Traverse or Equinox these days, making the Impala one of the vehicles to find itself on this list. Chevrolet is keeping its smaller brother, the Malibu, but a big, full-size sedan just isn't what people are ordering up these days. It's unfortunate to see it go, but we won't be broken up over it. Chevrolet Cruze We wouldn't rank the Cruze at the top of the compact car class, but if you were looking for a small, cheap American car, it was either this or the Focus. The Cruze had the potential to be a true small performance car if Chevy had ever wanted to make it into one. But sadly, we're seeing it bow out before Chevy ever tried to slot a hot engine and suspension in there to make it competitive with other hot hatches. A Cruze SS would have made enthusiasts take notice.
