Up for sale is a 1986 Buick Regal Turbo T-Type. One of only 2,384 T-Types produced in 1986. I imported this car from Canada about a month ago with plans of doing a full restoration and giving it to my dad as a present. However, plans have changed (we got him a 69' Skylark GS instead) and I have no space to keep it. The car has 64K original miles (odometer is in KM and reads 102K). I drove this car down from Toronto - 1700 miles in just two days, without a glitch. That should tell you quite a bit. The following are New in the last year
I have documentation for all of the above work, which was done by the previous owner and will be glad to share a file with the new owner. What the car might need:
Mechanically this car runs awesome (I dare say it is quicker than my GNX), probably a 9 or a 10. Cosmetically, I would rate it a 7. The paint is a bit tired and it has typical for the age chips, dings, touch ups, etc.. Car also has some nice factory options like the G80 posi. This is also a more desirable non T-Top car. The previous owner did quite a bit with the car in the last year. Best as I can tell at some point in its life the car has been repainted the original factory color and the transmission was rebuilt (with a shift kit) as it has very nice crisp shifts. Based on the import documentation I had to provide customs identifying all previous owners and transfer dates/mileages between them, I believe this car to have an original 64K miles. All in all, I would call this a basically stock plus a few bolt-ons (awesome running) daily driver in presentable shape. It could be a lot more in the right hands, but more than an excellent place to start as a lot of the bigger jobs have been done. I am taking a loss on this car because of the costs to bring it down to Texas (at the buy it now price offered), but with all my other projects, I simply need it gone now. It just past state inspection. All the import documentation was done correctly and I have a clear Texas title in hand. The car has a clean Carfax and is straight/accident free. Please don't ask me how much I would take for the car. This is a no reserve auction and there is a "buy it now" option too. If the "buy it now" is not taken, high bidder gets it, plain and simple. Auction terms: $500 deposit is due within 24 hours of auction end time. Full payment due within 72 hours via cash, cashier's check or wire transfer. Car must be picked up by July 31st latest. If you do not agree to these auction terms, DO NOT BID. Also, if you have any questions, please ask them before you bid, not after you have won the auction and the car is already yours. Sorry for being so blunt, I just want to make sure there are no hiccups with the sale as I don't want to relist it. I would not to hesitate driving this car anywhere if you want to fly into Houston and drive it home (obviously I can say this haven driven it from Toronto!). Otherwise, shipping will be up to the buyer to arrange (location is zip code 77479). If you have any questions, please contact me via Ebay and provide your phone number. I will be glad to call you back, but do not wish to put my phone number in this listing. I will also be more than glad to show the car to you if you are local and want to see it before the auction ends. The car has been listed for sale locally, I reserve the right to end this auction at anytime. I have tried to be as honest and transparent as I could (maybe to a fault). I am not a dealer, this is a private sale. All pictures were taken in the last few days at my home. Again, this is not a mint cream puff garage queen. If you want one of those, please look elsewhere. This is however a nice, tight, solid un-abused and mechanically sorted quick running car that would make a reliable daily driver and get you the occasional thumbs ups while cruising! Good luck! Here is a walk around video of the car, taken in Toronto before I picked it up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=R2orWyyYlbo |

2022 Buick Encore starts at $25,795
Fri, Dec 10 2021The Buick Encore entered the market here for the 2013 model year, its combination of solid, practical, and premium-ish content working well enough to increase sales by about 10% every year until 2019. The shine on that first-year model was such that it was recently voted one of the best used-car buys under $10,000. Still in its first generation, the Encore soldiers into the 2022 model year with a few small changes. The biggest update for the 2022 Encore is a newer 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine with more power. The previous unit produced 138 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque; the new 1.4 will unleash 155 hp and 177 lb-ft. That engine will only be available on the Preferred trim — which is the only one left. In 2018, the Encore came in six flavors. Whittling reduced that to a base model and a Preferred model for 2021, and for next year the base departs. Also (kind of) under the hood, an electric heater and defroster replace the traditional heater core system, for faster toasties in cold climes. The only change outside is the addition of an exterior temperature sensor. Inside, the eight-inch infotainment touchscreen shrinks to become a seven-inch touchscreen. The passenger's seatback will no longer fold flat, so Buick took the opportunity to add a seatback map pocket to the shotgun position. Buick will charge $25,795 for the 2022 Encore, that figure including the $1,195 destination charge. It's the same price as the 2021 Encore Preferred. The continued paring of the lineup suggests GM is ready to wind the model down now that the tiny-bit-larger and more profitable Encore GX is killing the Encore in the sales race. Through the end of September, the Encore is down on its 2020 sales volume in the U.S. by about half, whereas the Encore GX has more than doubled its 2020 sales so far this year. Automotive News reported that the Encore will quit the U.S. market in 2023 without a replacement as the automaker digs into its electric efforts. GM Authority believes there's a chance the new-generation Encore sold in China could come here.Â
GM recalls 500K Chevy Camaros for ignition-switch defect
Fri, 13 Jun 2014General Motors issued a recall for more than a half million Chevrolet Camaros on Friday morning because of an ignition-switch safety hazard that mirrors the one at the center of the company's current crisis.
The problem affects Camaro models from the 2010 to 2014 model years. Approximately 464,712 cars are impacted in the United States, and 511,528 overall in North America. GM will alter the Camaro key to a more standard design, and will notify car owners with a recall notice in the mail.
In an announcement, the company said the ignition switches on the Camaros are fundamentally different parts than the older ignition switches found on defective cars that are responsible for killing at least 13 people and causing 54 crashes.
Is Buick's surprise Detroit concept a Camaro-sized coupe?
Sun, Jan 10 2016Tomorrow night marks the unofficial start of the 2016 Detroit Auto Show. Keep your eyes peeled for a number of reveals, including a surprise debut from Buick. Yes, Buick. And we think it's going to be something really hot. According to a report from Bloomberg, the Tri-Shield's secret car could be a Camaro-sized sport coupe concept. As Bloomberg explains, it'd certainly gel with the impression the company is trying to put out – that it's no longer a brand for those with one foot in the grave. Introducing a sports coupe, even as a concept, could certainly reinforce that message. And if it happens to make production – which is not a certainty, Bloomberg's secret source says – it could certainly help Buick drive its average buyer age down from 59. Bloomberg doesn't offer any speculation on Buick's new coupe, but we have no problem making educated guesses. Our most reliable conjecture is this: it will ride on General Motors' Alpha platform, which underpins both the Camaro and the Cadillac ATS. And with a certain twin-turbocharged V6 in the GM stable, we've got an idea of what kind of engine could be shown. That speculation will have to suffice for now. But don't worry, we'll have official details, live images, and video tomorrow when Buick unveils its new concept in Detroit's Eastern Market.
