1970 Buick GranSport GSX Re-creation This Buick up for auction is a real GranSport that was made into a GSX recreation. It has an original steel framed GranSport Ram-Air induction hood, and has the cool GSX spoiler. These 60's and 70's muscle cars have incredible investment potential, and have been referred to as rolling bank accounts. This GSX look-a-like is powered by a Big Block Buick 455, but is not believed to be numbers matching. Although being an Olds guy, I never learned how to check the numbers on any Buick's. The quadrajet does have the awesome dual snorkeled ram-air cleaner with new foam seals. There is a brand new exhaust system with new chrome tips welded on each side of the rear pipes. This Buick has dual sport mirrors painted to match the body color. It also has the Buick sport steering wheel. The black bucket seats are in very good condition, so they should be nice and comfortable for many years to come. The entire interior looks really pretty sweet as seen in the pictures. The black carpeting is brand new with the extra sound deadening padding, including a brand new set of four black carpeted deluxe floor mats. The console is the infamous horseshoe shifter, and the headliner was replaced. The headliner needs to be stretched a bit still, so I'm going to try and have that finished by the end of the auction. There is a new dash pad as well with a new GSX emblem above the glove box. All the gaskets around the doors were replaced after the car was painted, including the window seal gaskets, and the trunk gasket. The one year only 1970 GS grille is brand new from The Parts Place with the new three piece chrome trim that surrounds the grille, and a brand new GSX grille emblem. There is a brand new pair of Cooper Cobra P235/60R15 inch raised white lettered tires on the front, and P245/60R15 on the rear mounted on 15 inch Buick chrome sport wheels. All four wheels have the proper center caps for 1970. There is a 10 bolt rear-end, but I am unsure of the gear ratio. There is a pair of air shocks on the rear suspension that seem to be holding air nicely. In my opinion I have not seen an undercarriage this clean on a 44 year old muscle car. This Buick has its original floors that look like about a 10 year old car. The frame appears the same way, and the original trunk floor is in very good condition, and was coated with black and aqua spatter spray to make it appear factory correct. Inside the trunk is a new trunk mat, and a nicely detailed original jack, and crow bar with a full size Cooper Cobra spare on a Buick sport wheel. This way if there is ever a mishap you can be back on the road in minutes looking complete. There is a full set of wheel opening moldings, and the correct GranSport stainless steel lower rocker cover moldings on both sides. The front and the rear bumpers are both brand new with triple plated chrome, and both rear tail lights are brand new. The power steering belt is not on the car, because I think it has the wrong bracket. That minor issue will be left up to the new owner. What you see is exactly what you get! These mostly complete older classics that have survived for over 40 years are becoming harder and harder to find, especially in this color combination. The Nada Classic Car Price Guide currently has the 1970 Buick GranSport listed at $50,255 in high condition, $19,780 in average condition, and $10,637 in low condition. I personally believe this silver and black beauty is in much better than average condition. I received this car in a trade, and I'm not looking to break the bank on this sale deeming the fact that it is being sold at no reserve. I simply need the funds from this sale to clear up some pertinent bills right away. It is imperative that the winner has the funds to follow through with their lucky winning bid according to the auction guidelines. I tried to place all of the factory decals in the proper places to make this cool classic look the way it would have rolled out of the factory onto the showroom floor. A great deal of time, money, and effort went into the recreation of this GSX. Whatever this classic sells for in this no reserve auction is a win/win investment. This Buick is an investment that I believe will continue to rise as these cars have shown to consistently escalate in value. These GM A-Body muscle cars are the finest handling cars I have ever driven. This car is for the guy or girl that always wanted one back in high school, or may just want to show off at their high school reunion to prove how cool they still are. Here is a prime opportunity to acquire your dream car at a nominal price. I try to list everything I can think of when I write a description. If you feel I may have left anything out please ask as many questions as you like. I pride myself in answering every question in explicit detail with the utmost honesty. This car is being offered at "No Reserve" on a 3-day listing. It will sell to the highest bidder on Sunday evening at 5:00pm Pacific time, 7:00pm Central time, or 8:00pm Eastern time depending on your location. Thank you for taking the time to view my auction. Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!

March Madness upsets good for auto advertisers
Mon, Mar 23 2015There are no Cinderella teams left in the NCAA men's basketball tournament - the fairytales ended with Georgia State's loss to Xavier over the weekend. And even though the Sweet 16 is composed of elite teams - at the time of writing the lowest-ranked squad is 11th-seeded UCLA, which has most championships of any school in the country - there are still underdogs and surprises, and they are good for NCAA business and advertisers. Last year the March Madness Live app, which allows users to watch games on the go, was downloaded 4.5 million times, a jump of more than 40 percent over 2013. Buick sponsors the iOS version of the app, but more than a million of those downloads were for the Android version, sponsored by Infiniti since 2011. Part of Buick's engagement is a "Boss Button" on the livestream sites that can quickly mask the page with something your boss won't question you over. It also sponsors a trick-shot competition for fans, has a display in Bracket Town during the Final Four, and its cars lead the team buses through the city. Infiniti said last year's tourney increased online searches for the brand by 25 percent in March, and things are going even better this year: it's round-by-round bracket game drew 477,859 total entries in 2014, this year's game has signed up 534,350 already and the tournament has another two weeks to go. The luxury brand is all over the event, promoting the QX60 through to the Final Four, then moving its efforts to the Q50. It sponsors the Coaches vs. Cancer charity and will have an Infiniti Lounge near the Final Four venue in downtown Indianapolis. So for the two automakers keeping their own scores... come on, Wichita State! Six brackets, six chances to win a trip to #FinalFour 2016.

Buick Avenir will be made...as a trim level instead of a car
Fri, Sep 30 2016Almost two years after Buick showed the gorgeous Avenir concept, the company announced the Avenir name will reach production. Specifically, it will be a top-tier trim level for 2018 model year Buicks. It's taking a page from GMC's Denali, Lincoln's Black Label, and, well, plenty of examples of extra-fancy sauce. This is disappointing news for fans of the concept, but they can take solace in the fact that the Avenir's good looks are starting to rub off on production Buicks, such as the new LaCrosse. For those interested in what this new Avenir trim will bring to the table, it's a similar formula to what many other auto brands are doing. Buick specifically compares Avenir with the Denali trim for GMC. Models with the trim will get a special 3D mesh grille inspired by the Avista concept, large wheels and unique trim finishes outside. Inside, Avenir models will receive a nicer interior, which Buick generically described as having "unique seat details" and "modern trim materials." Cars equipped with the package will also get a smattering of Avenir badges. Avenir looks like a win-win: interested buyers get some extra cachet and bragging rights and Buick gets to load high-profit options on it cars and SUVs. Buick's inspiration for the Avenir trim is a bit strange, though. The company says it is "inspired by Buick's evolving customer base," which includes women and owners of competing products. Apparently both groups are buying Buicks in greater numbers, and the company also says that many of their customers opt for the most expensive trims. While it seems straightforward to tailor a package for luxury-seeking buyers, we're not sure what would make a package specifically appeal to women and people with competitors' vehicles. That being said, Buick isn't as patronizing as Cosmopolitan was with its car. In fact, quite the opposite. With Avenir, Buick is cashing in on new customers that willing to pay for luxury plain and simple, without any pandering. Related Video: Auto News Buick Luxury denali buick avenir
2018 Buick Regal Sportback First Drive Review | Eyes wide shut
Wed, Dec 20 2017AUSTIN, Texas—Barreling along the tight backroads of Austin's Hill Country, my driving partner was coming in a little hot. Usually, beads of sweat would have appeared by now, hand crushing the grab handle. On roads such as this one, which are barely a car and a half wide, unusual confidence in the car is essential. But even with eyes closed (from the passenger's seat), it felt as if I was riding in an Audi, not in a product that shares its roots with the Chevrolet Malibu. This is a very good thing for Buick. It's unusually planted and stable, almost Germanic in nature. There's no traditional sedan available on these shores, which begs the question: Did the new Regal have to be a hatchback? Nope. Buick sells a traditional four-door Regal in China. The Regal Sportback, which is built in Russelsheim, Germany, is a European take on the sedan, in the vein of the recent proliferation of four-door "coupes" from all sorts of car manufacturers. It's far more versatile than most stylized sedans, however, with a wide opening that can swallow a full-size bicycle with both wheels on. Really—we tried it. There is an alternative to the hatchback, although it won't please sedan purists: the Regal TourX, a wagon in all but name. The 310-hp Regal GS isn't far away, either, and a luxe Regal Avenir is likely to appear. A hybridized Regal eAssist is also a possibility. Alas, the Regal nameplate is unlikely to reappear on a two-door coupe, according to a Buick spokesperson. The closest analogy for the Regal Sportback is the recently departed Volkswagen CC, in both form and function. From the quarter angles, the Regal Sportback has hints of the last-generation BMW 5 Series. Dead on from the front, or in your rearview mirror, there is more than a hint of the Audi shield grille. The LED headlight signature is distinctly European in style, but vaguely defined. Dynamically, the front-wheel-drive Regal Sportback is a match for the Audi A4/A5 Sportback duo. The smooth, turbocharged 2.0-liter inline four is a formidable powerplant, particularly when paired with the nine-speed automatic transmission. Its 250-horsepower output is a close match for Audi's engine of the same displacement. All-wheel drive is offered on the top two trim levels, Preferred II and Essence, as an option, paired with an eight-speed automatic. A trick differential that can direct torque to individual wheels, in addition to splitting it front and rear, is standard on the AWD models.
