Up for Bidding today is my Father's 1987 Buick Regal Turbo-T or T-Type as some may call it. This is a Genuine 3 owner car that has not had the normal life most of these cars went through. It never was a street racer, weekend warrior, or some spoiled kids toy that got beat on a daily basis. I am a close friend with the second owner and was best friends with the third owner ( my 77 year old Father) who passed away on Veterans Day 2011 (11-11-11). Since he passed I have driven the car to a handful of car shows and cruise nights just to keep it exercised and to remember my father with my two sons. This car had one complete repaint about 14 years ago and still looks very nice. there are no scratches, scrapes or any other notable blemishes in the paint or body that I am aware of. All the black trim is still in nice shape and the bumpers still shine well with no dings or dents. Even the bumper fillers are still in excellent shape for their age, but that is what happens when the car is GARAGED from day it rolled off the dealers lot. Interior is all original as far as I know except the headliner and sun visors which we had professionally recovered 4 years ago. The drivers seat cushion on the r/h side has a small 1/8" defect in it ( barely noticeable ) and the t- top trim has 3 small cracks in the plastic on the ends, otherwise it is very nice. The carpet looks like it might have been replaced at one time because it is so clean but the original design heel pad is there so it might have an OEM GM piece used. The car is equipped with Concert Sound II and a power antenna that still works. I have replaced the rear speakers and the door speakers but the original dash ones still remain. Mechanically it retains its original drivetrain as far as I can see, no replacement parts tags or anything out of place, original g80 limited slip rear that works well. All factory braces and brackets appear to be in place. No exhaust leaks, engine is dry and transmission is also. It has a replacement catalytic converter on it and aftermarket stainless steel dual exhaust (very very nice). Has KYB gas adjust shocks at all 4 corners, Wheels are in nice shape, no bends or curbings but the clear is getting thin in some areas around the edges. Tires are not the stock sizes has bigs and littles on it for a neat stance, some may like it, some may not, but the tires are in excellent shape so why change them until they need to be. Has original spare tire in trunk with all hardware for the jack unused and accounted for. Everything in the car works as it should, all lights and accessories function as designed, no cracks in the lenses etc. Seatbelts are all present and function as designed. I think I thought of everything but I will probably add to the description over the course of the auction, any Questions ? Feel free to contact me thru Ebay and I will answer them asap, thanks Greg

2018 Buick Regal's base price is almost $2,500 cheaper than last year's
Wed, Jul 19 2017Along with the launch of the Buick Regal GS, Buick released official pricing for all three versions of the Regal, and they're very competitively priced, especially the Sportback. The part-sedan, part-hatch Regal Sportback starts at just $25,915. That's more than $2,000 cheaper than the previous generation 2017 Buick Regal sedan, which started at $28,385. Along with the savings in cost comes a standard turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder making 250 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque - 295 pound-feet with optional all-wheel drive. That's a significant step up from the standard naturally aspirated engine in the previous-generation Regal that makes just 182 horsepower and 172 pound-feet of torque. The new Regal's hatch also provides more flexibility for loading cargo, and the cargo space expands from 14.2 cubic feet in the old model to 31.5. View 12 Photos The TourX wagon, or crossover depending on your opinion, comes with a $4,000 premium over the Sportback, with a base price of $29,995, matching what was revealed last month. It gains only about an extra cubic foot behind the rear seats, but with the seats folded, it has 73.5 cubic feet to play with. It also comes with standard all-wheel drive and the engine with 295 pound-feet of torque. Plus, it has the added ride height and plastic body cladding that gives it the same trendy look shared with the Subaru Outback, Volvo V60 Cross Country, and Audi A4 Allroad. It is a few thousand more than the Outback, but it undercuts the Volvo by roughly $10,000 and the Audi by almost $15,000. Then, for performance, there's the Regal GS. It starts at $39,990 and has a 310-horsepower V6 and standard all-wheel drive. It also features all of the versatility of the regular Regal Sportback. All-in-all, the Buick Regal line seems to pack a lot of value, at least on paper. Related Video:
GM laying off 510 amidst slow Cadillac, small car sales
Wed, 12 Nov 2014General Motors is laying off about 510 workers from two factories beginning in January, and it could be months before the automaker needs some of that latent capacity to come back on line. A combination of poor sales and high dealer inventories are prompting the cutbacks, according to Automotive News.
The largest changes come at GM's Lansing Grand River plant, where the Cadillac ATS and CTS are made. An entire shift of about 350 workers is being laid off, but the automaker hopes to find positions for some of them at other nearby factories. The decision leaves just a single shift building vehicles there. According to Automotive News, the move is partially spurred by Johan de Nysschen's plan to make Cadillac a more exclusive brand.
The lost shift will likely return for production of the next-generation Chevrolet Camaro at the plant, according to the report, but GM isn't saying when that will be. A previous announcement from the Canadian Auto Workers union indicated that the Oshawa, Ontario, factory would lose the coupe in late 2015 or early 2016.
Buick to use Velite name for its Cascada?
Mon, Dec 1 2014Ever since Opel brought out the Cascada convertible last year, rumors have been flying that Buick would offer it Stateside – much like it does with the Insignia-based Regal and the Astra-based Verano. And now we might have our best clue yet as to what Buick might call it. According to GM Authority, General Motors has filed to use the name Velite on a new model. The name first appeared on a convertible concept unveiled over a decade ago at the 2004 New York Auto Show (pictured above), but GM reportedly opened an application to trademark the nameplate for production in 2011, seeking extensions on its application every six months since. Of course the fact that it's applied for its fifth extension (of a permissible six) doesn't necessarily mean that GM will ultimately bring the cabriolet to US showrooms, or that it will use the Velite name if it does, but the fact that GM is keeping the name alive could be a good sign. The market for relaxed four-seat convertibles has been shrinking, leaving it up to drop-top muscle cars like the Chevy Camaro and Ford Mustang. But with entries like the Toyota Camry Solara, Volkswagen Eos and Chrysler 200 Convertible having dropped off the market, the Buick Velite (or Cascada, or whatever it's ultimately called) could have the sedate cabriolet segment all to itself – even if (or especially if) Lexus dealers aren't interested in touching it.
