ORIGINAL CALIFORNIA 1985 WHITE PLATES, 1 YEAR ONLY! REGISTERED AND READY TO ROLL! TIME CAPSULE!
Up for auction with NO RESERVE!!! is a beautiful, extremely clean and almost completely original, factory produced, California 1985 Buick Grand National! This is a real deal survivor, matching numbers Buick Grand National with the very rare factory sunroof and digital dash option. With only 62,888 low original miles on the factory Turbo-Charged V6 it is practically a time capsule for Buick’s flagship luxury muscle car of 1985. The paint is all-original to the car and shines very well as you can see in the pictures. GM paint quality from the 80’s is notoriously lousy so there is some fading on the rear spoiler and clear coat issues on the hood area. This might be able to be brought back with a good buff or wet sand. A car is only original once and this car still sports the paint job it rolled out of the factory with. The doors, hood and trunk line up properly and shut with a solid “thump” as they should. There is minor touchup paint on the rear driver quarter panel as seen in pic. There is some road wear here and there in the body and paint from the car being driven over the years but overall looks nice for being original to the car and from the mid 80’s. The factory emblems and decals are still in tact and look great. The factory Buick rally wheels are original to the car and in good condition. The tires are in great shape and have lots of tread left. All the exterior lighting is in good original condition and works as it should. The headlights, brake lights, back-up lights, high beams and turn signals all work great. The factory 200HP 300FT/LB 3.8 Liter Turbo-Charged V6 has only 62,888 original miles on it. It fires right up and has never left me stranded ever. The car does have an uneven idle at start up but goes away after warmed up and drives amazing as always. It is a blast to drive and keeps up very well in modern traffic either on the freeway, around town or just out for a cruise on a country back road. The engine bay is extremely clean and the factory hood heat shielding is in excellent condition. The hood hydraulics are weak and do not hold the hood up anymore, so they should be changed out. The automatic transmission shifts smoothly and fluidly through all the gears with no stalling or hesitation. The rear end is also all-original to the car. It performs as it should with no whining or funny noises. The stock suspension is in great condition and really makes for a very comfortable ride. The stock brakes are in great condition and stop the car straight with no pulling to either side. They perform as they should and are very confidence inspiring. The interior of this Grand National is almost mint. Everything is original with the exception of a pioneer CD player installed in the factory location. The dash was not cut and the original factory stereo is included with the car. The more modern stereo system sounds fantastic compared to the original Buick deck but you could go back to the stock stereo if you desired. The front driver and passenger seats are in beautiful condition with no tears or rips anywhere. The power driver seat controls work as they should and adjust the seat properly. The carpet is very clean and free of any rips or tears. The back seats are very clean and have no rips or tears. There is a tiny small hole on the bottom portion of the passenger side back seat and there is a small hole about the size of a dime where the bottom and top portion of the driver side back seat meets. It is almost un-noticeable since it lies in the crevice portion of the seat as seen in pics. Can be patched for $150 making them perfect. Other than that all the seats are in excellent condition. The car since last ownership has been absolutely 100% a smoke free car and has no funny odors or smells at all. The door panels are very clean and free of scuff marks and nicks. Other than that the door panels are both very clean. All the controls on both door panels work as they should including the: power windows and lock/unlock buttons. The dash is in excellent condition with no cracks and has not been cut or modified. The rare factory gauges are digital and all work flawlessly and are accurate including the: speedometer, gas gauge, trip meter, tach, factory boost gauge, water temp and voltmeter. The factory turbo boost indication lights work properly as do all the dash lights and readouts. The digital climate control system was a rare option in 1985 and this Grand National has it. All the indicator lights and control buttons work as they should and the entire system works great. The A/C will need to be recharged as it has not been done in years. As mentioned before the pioneer CD player is in place of the stock stereo currently and it sounds amazing! The headliner is in excellent condition with no rips or tears and the vanity lights and courtesy lights all work great. All controls everywhere on the interior of the car work as they should. The center console is in great condition as well as the rest of the interior panels. The little chrome bits like the handles and lock pulls are in excellent condition with no pitting and are original to the car. The sunroof was a factory option and this one is in great shape with no cracks or nicks. It works as it should and the factory sliding cover is very clean and lines up properly. The trunk is very clean and the lid has been dynamated. There is a subwoofer box/amp with 2 MTX 12’s that is easily removable if you so desire but it does very much complement the existing stereo system. The trunk does not rattle thanks to the dynamat and the sound it produces is very clean and not muffled. The factory spare tire is still in the trunk and the original factory jack is also included with the car. This Grand National also has an alarm with keyless entry and panic functions and two key fobs are included. The original window sticker is included with the car from its sales date back in 1985. It shows the specs and options that this car was built with and is a very coveted piece of documentation with any classic car. This factory original, survivor, optioned out 1985 Buick Grand National is in excellent shape through and through. It is the perfect modern classic or collector car to kick off your summer with a bang! Nice, un-molested, factory original examples of Grand Nationals are getting harder and harder to find. In 1985 just 2102 were sold. Who knows how many remain. Most were stolen, hacked up or crashed leaving them with a salvaged title, but not this one!!..

Buick confirms US-market Envision CUV to be built in China
Fri, Dec 4 2015As expected, the Buick Envision will come to the US market in 2016, and as rumored, it'll be GM's first product imported from the People's Republic. Buick confirmed the news today, while also releasing a number of technical details on the mid-size CUV, which has sold nearly 130,000 units in the Chinese domestic market in the first 11 months of 2015. When it arrives in US dealers next summer, the Envision will feature a 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder EcoTec four-cylinder. Good for an estimated 252 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque, the four-pot turbo is paired to a well-received six-speed Hydra-Matic 6T70 transmission. That's the same automatic gearbox that's offered in the turbocharged Regal and Regal GS and the current six-cylinder LaCrosse. The entire affair is underpinned by torque-steer-fighting HiPer strut front suspension, a crossover first for Buick, with a four-link setup in back. According to Buick, the Envision will also get the same Active Twin Clutch all-wheel-drive system being offered on the Cadillac XT5 and the new LaCrosse. Like the Chinese-market Envision, Buick is offering the USDM model with active grille shutters, LED running lights, LED taillights, heated front/rear seats, a heated steering wheel, 19-inch wheels, and a Bose stereo as standard. Buick also lists highlights like Active Noise Cancellation and an eight-inch IntelliLink infotainment system, although it's not clear whether these are standard features. There's no word on which auto show the Envision will debut at. Considering the timing, next month's Detroit Auto Show is a strong contender, although if Buick wanted to really drum up headlines ahead of its on-sale date next summer, it'd formally introduce its newest CUV in April, at the New York Auto Show. Either way, expect to see more of this handsome, Chinese-built CUV soon. Related Video: Buick Envision North American Market Fact Sheet 2015-12-04 The Buick Envision was designed, engineered and tested in Michigan as a world-class luxury crossover to challenge the world's best competition. It was awarded Motor Trend SUV of the Year in China and has 127,085 sales so far this year. When it goes on sale in 2016, it will play an important role in a crossover lineup that currently represents 60 percent of Buick sales in North America. It targets customers shopping between the Encore, the best-selling Buick in eight years, and the Enclave, which has continued to grow its customer base since its 2007 introduction.
2016 Buick Regal prices slashed
Tue, Aug 4 2015The Buick Regal is getting an aggressive price cut for the 2016 model year to keep pace in a crossover-centric world and its own hyper-competitive midsize sedan segment. The 2016 Buick Regal GS now starts at $35,915, after a $925 destination charge, which amounts to a $3,320 price cut compared to 2015. There's no de-contenting associated with the cost decreases either, and the vehicles are now available with Apple CarPlay. The lower prices follow through much of the lineup. The 1SP Premium model sees a $2,535 savings at $33,415 after destination; the 1SL trim falls $1,000 to $30,840; and the 1SV maintains at $28,915. The decision to make these cuts is meant to better position the midsize sedan against its rivals. "We know consumer sentiment towards sedans has decreased," Buick spokesperson Nick Richards said to Autoblog. CUVs like the company's own Encore are where buyers are moving. "Repositioning the Regal to more aggressively compete in the midsize sedan segment is the first of many steps we are taking in advance of next year's product offensive," Buick sales vice president Duncan Aldred said in a letter to dealers, according to USA Today. The decision probably couldn't have come at a better time because the Regal has suffered so far in 2015. Through July, the company has delivered 10,928 of them, down a significant 19.3 percent from the same period last year. A recent study also found that the model was among the most likely in the US to be sold after just one year of ownership.
2019 Volvo V60 vs. wagon competitors: How they compare on paper
Thu, Feb 22 2018The next-gen Volvo V60 was finally revealed this week. The outgoing model has been on sale since 2011, getting a few minor updates along the way. The new model is based off Volvo's Scalable Platform Architecture that underpins other models like the XC90 and XC60 crossovers and V90 wagon. The V60 will launch with two engines, with a powerful hybrid coming sometime down the line. Since the last V60 hit the market, Audi, Buick and BMW have all released their own flavor of wagon. Like Volvo, BMW sells a traditional sedan-based model. Audi and Buick's wagons are both high-riding models with some very slight off-road pretense, much like Volvo's Cross Country models. We don't have details on the upcoming V60 Cross Country, but, even when accounting for ground clearance, the V60, BMW 3 Series Sport Wagon, A4 Allroad and Buick Regal TourX have a lot of overlap. Check out the specs breakdown below. Discover and compare other wagons and crossovers with our Car Finder and Compare tools. Engines, transmissions and drivetrains Out of the four wagons, the new V60 is the only one that offers two-wheel drive and a hybrid variant. The base V60 T5 uses a 250-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter inline four and sends power to the front wheels. Stepping up to the V60 T6 nets buyers an additional 66 horsepower thanks to a twincharged — supercharged and turbocharged — 2.0-liter and all-wheel drive. A T8 model that uses a 390-horsepower plug-in hybrid powertrain will be available soon. All V60s use an eight-speed automatic. The Audi, BMW and Buick are all powered by 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-fours. Additionally, the 3 Series has a 2.0-liter turbo diesel. All three wagons have standard all-wheel drive. The BMW and Buick use an eight-speed automatic, while the Audi sends power through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. As base engines go, there's a four-horsepower difference between the most and least powerful models, though the Buick wins out on torque. The V60 T6 matches the Regal TourX's torque figure and trounces every competitor's horsepower rating. The V60 T8 packs more power and torque than any of the competition. Cargo and interior space The outgoing V60 was on the small side for a wagon. This new model rectifies that a bit, though its 48.2 cubic-feet of cargo space with the second-row folded is still substantially smaller than the competition.
