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.

Buick's Velite 5 is a rebadged Chevy Volt for China

Mon, Mar 27 2017

There's nary a mention of the famous Chevy Bowtie badge in Buick's press release for its new Velite 5. No shoutouts to the extended-range Volt, with which the Chinese-market Velite clearly borrows its hybrid gasoline/electric technology. But that's okay; to borrow an adage, if it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it's probably a duck. And, as you can see from the image above, the Buick Velite 5 is a duck Volt with a Tri-Shield badge. The Velite 5's 1.5-liter engine and lithium ion battery pack provide up to 466 miles of range, with the first 62 miles or so coming on battery power alone. That's more range than Chevy quotes for the Volt, so we're not sure what methodology Buick is using to calculate mileage. Still, even if it's more like the Volt's estimated range of 53 real-world miles, it would be enough for many Chinese drivers to avoid the gas station altogether. Buick showed off a Velite Concept late last year that doesn't appear to share much at all with this new Volt-based production model. But since the brand is promising more plug-ins and EVs in the coming years, we wouldn't be surprised to see further models carrying the Velite moniker, perhaps one based on the all-electric Chevy Bolt EV.

GM China President says automaker could export vehicles from China to US

Sat, 20 Apr 2013

At a press conference on Saturday at the Shanghai Motor Show, General Motors announced plans to further expand its presence in the Chinese market. Among those commitments are plans to build four new plants by the end of 2015, giving the automaker the capacity to produce around five million vehicles a year in the country.
In order to make the most of that expansion, GM is adding 400 dealerships in China this year alone (for a total of 4,200 sales points), and it's eyeing 5,100 dealers by 2015. Yet not all of that production will stay in China - GM is planning to increase exports as well. Officials estimate the company will export somewhere between 100,000 and 130,000 Chinese-built vehicles this year - a record. And it's gunning for more.
Autoblog asked GM China president Bob Socia (above) if that means the company might eventually export new vehicles built in China to the United States, and he responded:

Best car infotainment systems: From UConnect to MBUX, these are our favorites

Sun, Jan 7 2024

Declaring one infotainment system the best over any other is an inherently subjective matter. You can look at quantitative testing for things like input response time and various screen load times, but ask a room full of people that have tried all car infotainment systems what their favorite is, and you’re likely to get a lot of different responses. For the most part, the various infotainment systems available all share a similar purpose. They aim to help the driver get where they're going with navigation, play their favorite tunes via all sorts of media playback options and allow folks to stay connected with others via phone connectivity. Of course, most go way beyond the basics these days and offer features like streaming services, in-car performance data and much more. Unique features are aplenty when you start diving through menus, but how they go about their most important tasks vary widely. Some of our editors prefer systems that are exclusively touch-based and chock full of boundary-pushing features. Others may prefer a back-to-basics non-touch system that is navigable via a scroll wheel. You can compare it to the phone operating system wars. Just like some prefer Android phones over iPhones, we all have our own opinions for what makes up the best infotainment interface. All that said, our combined experience tells us that a number of infotainment systems are at least better than the rest. WeÂ’ve narrowed it down to five total systems in their own subcategories that stand out to us. Read on below to see our picks, and feel free to make your own arguments in the comments. Best infotainment overall: UConnect 5, various Stellantis products Ram 1500 Uconnect Infotainment System Review If thereÂ’s one infotainment system that all of us agree is excellent, itÂ’s UConnect. It has numerous qualities that make it great, but above all else, UConnect is simple and straightforward to use. Ease of operation is one of the most (if not the single most) vital parts of any infotainment system interface. If youÂ’re expected to be able to tap away on a touchscreen while driving and still pay attention to the road, a complex infotainment system is going to remove your attention from the number one task at hand: driving. UConnect uses a simple interface that puts all of your key functions in a clearly-represented row on the bottom of the screen. Tap any of them, and it instantly pulls up that menu.
