1987 Buick Regal with 'T' package (Option code Y56), Exterior Sport Package (W02), and rare T-Tops with V8 307 Engine
I had this beautiful 87 listed last week and found out that there was an odometer error. I had bought this car last year and was told that it had 75K miles but when I checked the free car history on Ebay last week, I was astonished that the car has an extra 100K miles. To be honest, you would never know this car has mileage above 100K; it truely rides and handles like a low mileage car. My Virginia title states 75K. Has current Virginia inspection and is currently registered.
What I found out from the previous owner is the following new items for restoration in early 2009 (only 8K miles ago):
* New professional paint with two stage clear coat painted at a Chevrolet dealer
* New Weatherstripping
* New Converter
* New Front Brakes
* New Shocks
* New Radiator
* New Belts
* New Carpet
* New Headliner
* Rebuilt Transmission with Shift kit
* New turn signal lever
* New Shift Cable
* New Hood Release cable
New items in 2010 totalling $1,644 w/reciept:
* New Water pump
* New Thermostate and seal
* Upper and lower hoses
* New By pass and heater hoses
* New Master switch
New items in 2012 totalling $354 w/receipt:
* Evacuate and recharge AC system for R134 freon
* New Transmission Mount
* Replace new rear brake line
Why am I selling this beauty? I just got laid off and I need to sell it to pay bills... ;-(
Body: All panels are rust free. Needs touch-up on front drivers side filler panel. Also, has a few dings on hood.

Paint: Was painted the original blue metallic at a Chevy dealer in 2009 and still shows very nice but with several chips and blemishes

2014 Buick LaCrosse
Wed, 24 Jul 2013A Nice, New Buick Aims For Middle Of The Road
Any time someone describes some portion of a car or a driving experience as being "nice," I want to either A) throttle them or B) run as fast and as far as I can from that vehicle. "Nice" is among the most insidious words in the English language - at best it's vague, and at worst, it conveys the exact opposite of its literal meaning. Yet it seems to be used with damnable frequency when it comes to verbally illustrating vehicles. "It looks really nice," or "These seats feel nice," or, heaven forefend, "It's got a nice ride," are all windy signifiers of absolutely nothing resembling a concrete opinion. "Nice" is the adjectival equivalent of meekly smiling and nodding your head.
Of course, I'm as guilty as the next person of having thrown English's least powerful descriptor around. There's even a chance that, rant aside, you'll catch me making nice in reviews to come. That's fine, but you should know that when you stumble upon such usage, past or future, that you've found a sentence in which I'm simply applying a bare minimum of effort to the task.
2013 Buick Encore
Wed, 14 Aug 2013Ignored On Arrival, But Coming On Strong
An image exists out there that perfectly conveys the fate we thought would befall the Buick Encore after its world debut at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show. The shot shows the just-unveiled Encore on stage, basking in the glow of spotlights but surrounded by a large display area that's bereft of both cars and people. Two journalists are sitting on a couch over to the side, both facing the Encore but ignoring it as they inspect their swag, and a solitary custodial engineer pushes a vacuum back and forth across a sea of gray carpet.
Like a kid with his birthday cake at a party no one came to, this little crossover's debut was largely, almost cruelly, ignored. Who can blame us, though? Two shows ago, the Motor City's main stage welcomed the redesigned Aston Martin-esque Ford Fusion, the 3 Series-assassin ATS from Cadillac and the return of Dodge to the small car game with the Dart. A fourth model for the wayward Buick brand, especially one so arguably un-Buick in form and function, did not seem to deserve the attention paid to its peers that year.
Buick Envision CUV displays full-frontal nudity
Tue, 22 Jul 2014Earlier this month, Shanghai GM gave us a glimpse of the production version of the Buick Envision concept revealed at the Shanghai Motor Show back in 2011. And now it's released the first unveiled shot and initial details of the crossover to slot in the considerable gap between the Encore and Enclave.
The new Envision is set later this year to reach Chinese showrooms, where it will be called the Ang Ke Wei, after which we're expecting it to arrive Stateside. The production-ready Envision is about the size of the Chevrolet Equinox or GMC Terrain, but is differentiated by a more upscale treatment and Buick's signature waterfall grille, flanked by Xenon headlamps and LED running lights and riding on 19-inch wheels.
Power comes from GM's familiar 2.0-liter turbo four with direct injection and stop/start ignition, driving 256 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque through a six-speed automatic transmission to all four wheels. That's about all that GM's Chinese operation has announced at this point - it's not even clear what platform the vehicle is on - but you can check out the press release for yourself below.
