Fly High or Fly Low, this '87 GN Buick was photographed at the Dallas Love Field Frontiers of Flight Museum, located only minutes from our showroom. Be sure to visit our friends at the Flight Museum if you find yourself in Dallas, Texas.

Buick's Grand National was in a class of its own. This was one of the fastest American production cars of its time. This is a true 1987 Buick Grand National with GNX trim added throughout. This is not one of the original 547 GNX Grand Nationals. This car has just had the GNX aesthetics added for the look.

This car can't be told from an original GNX from the exterior or interior. This '87 GN has some extra curb appeal to it for sure.

The exterior showcases one repaint completed in 2013 of the original black. The paint is in good condition. There are some paint chips and flaws when you look closely. The door jambs could have been finished out better.

Under the hood is the powerful 3.8 liter turbo-charged V6 engine. This engine was rebuilt in 2013 to stock specifications for reliability / driveability sake. We have receipts for much of the parts and work performed. Brass freeze plugs have been installed. The brake booster was upgraded to the newer GM booster to avoid future issues. The original Grand National power brake system was notorious for problems later in life. Further inspection of the engine compartment will reveal original sheetmetal throughout the firewall, inner fenders and core support. The intercooler piping is polished along with the turbo heat shield.

The interior features factory bucket seating in the original two-tone configuration. The upholstery is in good condition, front to back.

The dash displays the original instrumentation and radio, all functional. An aftermarket A-pillar gauge setup has been installed with an Air/Fuel ratio gauge and fuel pressure gauge. The fuel pressure gauge has some LEDs burned out. The dash itself is clean and straight, free of cracking or distortion that can occur with this generation with improper care and storage. There is a dual gauge pod just in front of the shifter with an aftermarket oil pressure gauge, again some of the LEDs are burned out.

The door panels are in decent condition and the door undersides are solid, indicative of a dry climate Grand National. This car needs some odds and ends to really finish it out. The outer window wipes are cracked and worn, in need of replacement. Also the door weatherstripping is worn and cracked in areas.

The undercarriage displays original flooring throughout. The front end suspension has been aligned and worked on recently. The U-joints have been recently replaced along with the tie rod ends with verifying receipts. The rubber frame bushings have been replaced with polyurethane bushings. The frame itself is in excellent condition throughout.

Buick's Grand National is equally at home on the track or the street. This example has not been raced. It is a street machine. The GNX-type wheels are fitted with recent radial tires sized at 245/50R16s and 255/50R16s.

Enjoy our remaining photos and again feel free to contact Dave at 214-213-7072 or Maris at 214-616-2317 with any questions. This is your opportunity to own a true 1987 Buick Grand National.

Buick really wants us to know the new Cascada convertible won't leak

Thu, Apr 16 2015

Quality testing on the factory floor is nothing to joke about. Automakers need to make sure the work being done is up to snuff, and that means some extensive checks. For Buick, that means using a lot of water for each of its Cascada convertibles. Each vehicle that rolls off the floor is subject to a high-pressure, ten-minute soaking that sprays nearly 20 gallons of water from each nozzle during every bath, just to guarantee the fabric roof hasn't sprung any leaks. For some reason, Buick has chosen to show off this testing with the help of what we imagine is the Gorton's Fisherman's baby cousin. Check out the strange testing video, available up top.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.

Buick, Lexus top J.D. Power survey, as vehicle service improves overall

Fri, Mar 17 2017

Buick and Lexus returned to their customary place atop J.D. Power's scorecard of satisfaction with dealership service departments. In the Customer Service Index Study, out Thursday, Buick scored 860 on a 1,000-point scale for mass-market brands and has topped this ranking in three of the past four years. Lexus topped the list of luxury brands with a score of 874. Fiat and Land Rover were the bottom-dwellers in the two categories. Buick and Lexus also ranked highly in the research company's overall Vehicle Dependability Study rankings out recently. The customer experience at car dealerships has improved steadily, with the overall industry score rising in seven of the past eight years. And one statistic is particularly remarkable: 94 percent of customers say their car was fixed right the first time. The dominant area of difficulty in repairs seems to be infotainment systems. Only 80 percent of respondents said their stereo was fixed right the first time. And in last month's Vehicle Dependability Study, J.D. Power reported that infotainment systems were the most commonly reported vehicle issue, accounting for 22 percent of all problems reported, up 2 percent from the previous year. J.D. Power surveyed 70,000 customers for the Customer Service Index Study. For the Vehicle Dependability Study, it surveyed 35,186 first owners of 2014 model-year vehicles after three years of ownership. Below are charts for both the current study and the complementary overall brand dependability survey. Related video:
