1968 Buick Lesabre Custom Convertible 2-door 5.7l on 2040-cars
Mishawaka, Indiana, United States

Beautiful 1968 Buick Le Sabre Convertible Amazing condition for a 44 year old car ! A great deal of money has been spent on body,
paint and wheels. Looks great up
close. I was told this car came from
California. From the lack of rust and corrosion
underneath I find this believable.(see undercarriage photos) Insured with Haggerty collectors insurance at a low cost of $ 160 a year for liability
and full car value. I can store this car for you until May 1st inside . I am a great believer in describing a car accurately . I have been selling collector cars on Ebay since 1999 with no complaints and want to keep my good reputation. If on inspection prior to pick up you find something major wrong I missed, you can cancel the sale immediately for a full refund. I encourage you to have the car inspected. I have a great honest independent auto shop that is tuning the car up now for the new owner where you can pay to have your own inspection while up on a lift. First the good about the car .
Amazing body and paint work looks very presentable close up I see no paint blisters, bubbles, no signs of rust. Great new tires and wheels very expensive tires and wheels Good presentable chrome Good glass (one defect) Seats are in very good shape as is dash top Runs well. I am getting a new battery and tune up right now for the new owner New exhaust Tires are size 255/30zr24 NZ7000 ? No expert on these big tires Bad, small delaminating
crack in front very left lower corner of the front windshield No radio I have NOT checked the top motor, as you do not want to
lower a convertible top when it is cold out Dash brake light is on but brakes work well I just had the ignition out to get new keys made so ignition is not back in dash just hanging by wires Drivers door lower carpet panel gone Both door carpet sill chrome panels gone At least one of the expensive tires is mounted with the tread
rotation in the wrong direction (tire
shows necessary direction of rotation ) trim body piece on the rear deck just behind the convertible top is missing. I am not an expert on this model (I restore Model T and Model A Fords) so I will continue to inspect this car and list any additional good and bad points Haggerty valuation without the tires is averaging $ 12, 526 Many in this shape are listed in the $ 18,000 price range snow is on the black carpet on the pictures I have forgotten to check the mileage, speedometer operation and heater fan wipers and will do so. Mileage listed therefore is an estimate. Email me for lots more pictures and questions This I believe is a great price for this car Reason for selling. I have about 14 collector cars and am
running out of room. I bought this car
last week for a Valentine’s day present for my wife but she says it is too big
for her. I and many others consider QUALITY classic cars as both fun to own and drive for the attention factor and descent investments The 1960's era cars should continue to appreciate for 10-15 years, as the prices seem to peak as the teenagers during those years who now are older and have money want these cars back or the car they never had. |

J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?
You can find details on those and more findings in the press release below.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
Car technology I'm thankful and unthankful for
Mon, Nov 27 2017The past few years have seen a surge of tech features in new vehicles — everything from cloud-based content to semi-autonomous driving. While some of it makes the driving experience better, not all tech is useful or well thought out. Automakers who are adept at drivetrains, ride quality and in-cabin comforts often fail at infotainment interfaces and connectivity. From testing dozens of vehicles each year and in the spirit of gratitude, here are three car tech features I'm thankful — and a trio I could live without. Thanks Connected search: This seems like a no-brainer since everyone already has it on their smartphones, but not all automakers include it in the dashboard and as part of their nav systems. The best ones, such as Toyota Entune, leverage a driver's connected device to search for a range of services and don't charge a subscription or require a separate data plan for the car. I also like how systems like Chrysler Uconnect use Yelp or other apps to find everything from coffee to gas stations and allow searching via voice recognition. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto: It took two of the largest tech companies to get in-dash infotainment right. While they have their disadvantages (you're forced to use Apple Maps with CarPlay, for example), the two smartphone-integration platforms make it easier and safer to use their respective native apps for phoning, messaging, music and more behind the wheel by transferring a familiar UI to the dashboard — with no subscription required. Heated seats and steering wheels: I really appreciate these simple but pleasant features come wintertime. It's easy to get spoiled by bun-warmers on frosty mornings and using a heated steering wheel to warm the cold hands. I recently tested a 2018 Mercedes-Benz E400 Coupe that also had heated armrest that added to a cozy luxury experience. Bonus points for brands like Buick that allow setting seat heaters to turn on when the engine is remotely started. No thanks Automaker infotainment systems: Automakers have probably poured millions into creating their own infotainment systems, with the result largely being frustration on the part of most car owners. And Apple CarPlay and Android Auto coming along to make them obsolete. While some automaker systems, such as Toyota Entune and FCA's Uconnect, are easy and intuitive to use, it seems that high-end systems (I'm looking at you BMW iDrive and Mercedes-Benz COMAND) are the most difficult.
