    • I have for sale a very cool 1970 Buick Riviera.  These aren't seen very often any more.  This one has a good running 455 V-8 and has an automatic transmission that shifts well.  The car is long and low and rides good.  The car has 54,973 miles on it.  The paint on the car is called Sunset Sage.  Kinda like a purple with a little copper in it.  Has power brakes and power steering that are both working well.  The following all work:  all 4 power windows, horn, all lights, wipers, remote in glove box, tilt wheel, power seat, speed alert arrow and buzzer, speedometer, fuel guage, heater and defroster, glove box light, interior domes, temp. and brake warning lights, all turn signals and their dash indicators, quarterpanel turning lights, brake lights.
    • The factory A/C does work and blows cold.  These items don't work:  radio, driver's remote mirror, passenger's door window switch.  All of the other individual window switches are currently working. 
    • The body on this 1970 Riviera is really prety decent.  There are small spots of rust through just above each rear wheel as seen in the photos.  The paint is faded in a few spots, especially on the roof.  The undercarriage is very solid and I have found only some surface rust.  Trunk floor is solid as well with light surface rust present.  Cabin floors look ok from underneath and seem very solid when you stamp your heel on the inside. 
    • The interior is decent as well with the worst being the very evident heavy wear on the front seat.  Rear seat is good.  Headliner is good.  Dash is real decent.  Door panels are good as well with some armrest cracking.  Guages work and are clear and easily readable.
    • The 455 V-8 runs well and the trans shifts good.  The driver's side exhaust manifold has a leak and makes noise but not too bad.  It gets quieter when the engine is warned up.  A section of exhaust pipe will need to be added to the driver's side tailpipe rearward of the rear axel area.  Maybe even the whole driver's side pipe.  The other side is old but sounds ok.  The chrome on the car is not perfect but decent driver quality.  Glass is good.
    • This 1970 Riviera is fun to drive and a 455 has good power.  The interior is comfortable.  This was pretty much a 1-year body-style so its unique. 
    • Please feel free to ask any questions.  Personal inspection is encouraged.  As-is, no warranty.

No, Cadillac is not killing its flagship CT6 sedan

Sat, Jul 22 2017

Mark Twain never actually said that reports of his death had been greatly exaggerated. But if the Cadillac CT6 could talk, those are the exact words it would use. Speaking to Jalopnik, Cadillac chief Johan de Nysschen confirmed, emphatically, "There is absolutely no plan, at all, to cancel the CT6." In fact, says de Nysschen, the CT6 will soon be the beneficiary of significant investment. "The [CT6] forms a very important part of our product strategy going forward for the brand. The car also has a very major contribution to make to the shaping of brand perceptions, and the transformational process that Cadillac is undergoing." For instance, expect the CT6 to spearhead General Motors' most advanced forays into self-driving automobile technology. Interestingly, though, the Cadillac ATS and CTS sedans probably won't live past their current generations as the automaker 're-balances its sedan portfolio.' Replacement models are "in development" right now, says de Nysschen, which will "much more clearly separate the market position, both in terms of target customer demographics, in terms of market segments and in terms of price points between these three sedan lineups." So, that's confirmation that the Cadillac CT6 is going to stick around for a while. But what of other models cited by Reuters to potentially be killed, like the Buick LaCrosse and Chevy Impala and Volt? Read our take on that here, but suffice it to say that we don't think they're in danger, either.

2015 Buick Verano offered with six-speed manual after all

Mon, 09 Jun 2014

Good news, boys and girls (well, at least those of you who still like shifting for yourselves). Buick got in touch with us to correct some information that it had mistakenly announced; namely, that the 2015 Verano will lose its optional six-speed manual transmission. Apparently, that announcement was incorrect, and the compact sedan will indeed continue to offer a manual option for 2015, despite what we're certain is a low take rate. Additionally, the Desert Dusk Metallic paint that was said to come as part of an Appearance Package is no longer part of the deal. With that out of the way, we now return you to your regularly scheduled automotive-obsessive broadcast...
