Owned by a non-smoker, 79 years of age.  Does not drive anymore, and has always been garaged, and GENTLY driven.  Oil changes & services always done on time.  Recently, the car passed Nevada smog check, had all the windows tinted (35% on the sides and limo on the rear and top of the windshield.)  I get compliments and inquiries on the car all the time.  I hate to sell it, but I have no use for it anymore.  It was my daily driver, and it never let me down.  A very nice car that can only increase in value.  I am happy to answer any questions you may have regarding the car, as best as I can.  I have the owner's manual, but the binding came loose from age.  Two miles from my house a used car dealer has the identical car in virtually the identical condition and is asking $7,295, so I am very realistic and fair in what I am asking   In that it is a  private sale, there is no sales tax, of course.  The title is clean, from Nevada, and there are no loans or liens on the car.






What makes the car great----prettiest color combo (white/burgundy) rare, sought after model by collectors, cost over $30,000 when new in 1990, economical to drive, dependable, parts are cheap (other GM cars from the same year came from the same parts bin), car just had an oil change/filter, had a tune-up with new spark plugs, had the air and fuel filter changed, is garaged (so the original paint is shiny) and detailed every two weeks, the headlights work properly (just had repaired), the digital dashboard is working properly, as are the power windows, power seat, power mirrors.  Has the original rims with the original centers (they're expensive), and the tires are good, having just had an alignment, balance, and rotation so the car is smooth at 80 mph.  The car has spent its life in the South West, thus, it is not some rust-eaten clunker from snow states.


What makes the car less than showroom perfect:   windshield has a vertical crack on the extreme right side, check engine light came on (passed smog anyway), passenger seat was torn by a razor when someone broke in and tried to take the car, the driver's door was replaced and part of the rear quarter panel was painted, thus there is a slight shade difference in that area and the power door locks/alarm were not working since,  back when the car was new, I learned from the auto check report that the hood was fixed, explaining some paint variance on that as well.   the radio works intermittently, and the cassette doesn't work, the A/C isn't working properly, although the compressor is running.  When you put the car in reverse, it sometimes is less than smooth as it shifts into that gear.  One of the horn buttons fell off (I have in the trunk).  There might be other things I am not aware of, since I am not a mechanic, but nothing else is obvious to me, for it were, I would list it here. The power antenna is disconnected, because when I connect it the motor keeps running even though the antenna is at its full height.

The car is obviously almost 25 years old, so expect it to need renewal of parts due to age, so the car is being sold as is, no returns, and you are responsible for arranging shipping or you can pick it up yourself and drive it home.

2017 North American Car, Truck, and Utility of the Year entries announced

Wed, Jul 6 2016

Over 40 vehicles will compete for the 2017 North American Car, Truck, and Utility of the Year awards. If that name looks a little strange, it's because the competition added a third category. In years past, pickup trucks, crossovers, SUVs, commercial vans, and minivans competed for the same award. That's why there were occasionally weird comparisons, like last year's competition between the Volvo XC90 and Nissan Titan XD. The new format separates pickups and commercial vans into the truck contest and CUVs, SUVs, and minivans into the utility competition. A complete list of eligible vehicles is below, but here are a few highlights. For one, the entire list of entries has a luxurious lean. Of the 43 vehicles, nearly half of them are from premium brands. There are two eligible Bentleys – the Bentayga and Mulsanne – the Rolls-Royce Dawn, Jaguar F-Pace, Audi Q7, and the Mercedes-Benz GLS-, E-, and S-Class Maybach. The performance ranks are lofty, too, with the Audi R8, Acura NSX, Alfa Romeo Giulia, Mercedes SL- and SLC-Class, Porsche 718, and F-150 Raptor. The mainstream entries are just as comprehensive. From the Chrysler Pacifica to the Chevrolet Cruze to the Fiat 124 Spider to the Mitsubishi Mirage, NACTOY has covered an enormous price range with this year's contestants. Of course, these are only the eligible vehicles. They'll need to run through three rounds of judging, starting in September at NACTOY's traditional Hell, MI, test drive. The Canadian and American journalists involved in the judging will announce this year's nine finalists – three in each category – on December 6.

2021 Buick Envision fuel economy revealed

Mon, Sep 28 2020

Despite being revealed a few months ago, the 2021 Buick Envision has been lacking in in-depth details. But thanks to the EPA, we have a bit more information on the luxury crossover, specifically fuel economy. And it seems the new model is significantly more efficient than its predecessor. The only powertrain combination we have numbers for at the moment is the turbocharged engine with all-wheel drive. The Envision is expected to have a front-wheel-drive version, too, though an example with the old model's naturally aspirated four-cylinder is probably long gone. As for the turbo, all-wheel-drive Envision, it will get 22 mpg in the city, 29 on the highway, and 25 combined. That's the exact same as the old naturally aspirated, front-drive Envision, and it's an improvement of 2 mpg in town, 4 on the highway and 3 in combined driving over the previous turbo, all-wheel-drive version. As an extra bonus, the EPA notes that the new turbo Envision runs on regular gasoline, rather than premium like the old Envision. So not only will it use less gas, what it uses costs less. We're expecting the new Envision to go on sale early next year. While we know that the Envision will have a turbocharged engine, and the naturally aspirated one is probably discontinued, we don't know which engine it is. It could be an updated version of the old engine, which made 252 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque, or it could be the engine from the Cadillac XT4, which makes 230 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. The latter seems more likely, since the XT4 gets similar fuel economy. A nine-speed automatic and front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive are also planned for the crossover. Related Video:

Editors' Picks November 2023: Toyota Grand Highlander, Buick Envista and some lovely luxury vehicles

Fri, Dec 1 2023

It's been a month since we served you with the full lot of Autoblog Editors' Picks, and that master list is going to continue to grow as more new cars enter the market. For November 2023, we have a trio of SUVs coming in at various sizes and price points including the Buick Envista, Toyota Grand Highlander and Mercedes-Benz GLS. And if you're looking for a convertible sports car, the BMW Z4 is one that should make your shortlist, as it finds its way into this month's of Editors' Picks, as well. In case you missed previous Editors' Picks posts, here’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary in their respective segments get an EditorsÂ’ Pick designation. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. The list that youÂ’ll find below consists of every car we rated in November that earned an EditorsÂ’ Pick. 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander Limited Hybrid Max View 25 Photos Quick take: The Hybrid Max is the one to get, but the Grand Highlander comes highly recommended for its added space, nicer interior and fuel efficient powertrains. Score: 7 What it competes with: Kia Telluride, Jeep Grand Cherokee L, Chevy Traverse, Honda Pilot, Subaru Ascent, Ford Explorer, Toyota Highlander, Mazda CX-9, Kia Sorento, Buick Enclave, Nissan Pathfinder, VW Atlas, Mazda CX-90 Pros: Two hybrid powertrain options; exceptional cargo space; usable third row; refined and quiet ride. Cons: Expensive for the segment; the lesser hybrid powertrain is noisy and slow. From the editors: Senior Editor, Electric, John Beltz Snyder — "The Grand Highlander is a nice alternative to the standard Highlander for the Toyota faithful for its usable third row. The choice of powertrains is a huge boon, too, whether you want a fuel-sipping hybrid, or solid gas engine or a more robust hybrid with extra performance. YouÂ’re just going to have to pay a little more for it all." In-depth analysis: 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander Review: A strong, new three-row contender   2024 Buick Envista 2024 Buick Envista Sport Touring front three quarter View 19 Photos Quick take: The Envista is one of our top subcompact SUV picks. It packs tremendous value into a compelling design that looks far more expensive than it is. A homerun for Buick.
