Fly Low in the Grand National or Fly High, many of our photos of this GM classic were taken at the Dallas Love Field Frontiers of Flight Museum, located only minutes from our showroom.

1987 would be the final and pinnacle year of the Grand National. The base turbocharged 3.8 liter engine churned out 330 ft-lbs of torque at 2400 rpm while making 235 horsepower at only 4,000 rpms. These cars boast sub 14-second quarter mile times at over 100mph off the showroom floor. This example has some modifications. The exhaust system is custom, from a high flow downtube to free-flowing intercooler piping and dual exhaust system, all displaying beautifully throughout. It runs excellent. An aftermarket fuel pressure regulator and hi flow in-tank fuel pump are also in place.

The exterior showcases a quality black finish, the only color available for the '87 Grand National. The paint and body are in exceptional condition with a few minor chip touch-ups and an extremely straight body. Note the crack photographed above.

"The bulge in your hood will put a lump in your throat." This was a marketing line used to describe the Grand National.

The exterior has few distinguishing features in this all-business G-body Buick.

This menacing stance is partially attributed to the blacked-out factory 15-inch wheels wrapped in new B.F. Goodrich Radial T/A radials. The shocks have recently been replaced as well.

The engine compartment displays the turbo-charged 3.8 liter V6 engine in all its glory. The engine is clean and detailed. A few breathing modifications have been done along with an Accufab fuel pressure regulator installed. The intercooler charge lines are polished stainless and the turbo-charger heat shield is also polished.

2013 Buick Verano Turbo vs. 2013 Acura ILX 2.4

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

Answering The $30,000 Entry-Level Luxury Question
Twenty years ago, a comparison between an entry-level Buick and Acura would have matched a Skylark against an Integra.
Twenty years ago, a comparison between an entry-level Buick and its Acura equivalent would have matched a Skylark against an Integra. The unfair battle would have resulted in the compact American's defeat in nearly every measurable category, as the Japanese competitor was arguably at the height of its powers.

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")

GM laying off 500 workers to slow Chevy Sonic production

Sat, Oct 24 2015

Due to slow sales of the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, General Motors is cutting a shift at the Orion Township plant that builds the pair. The move lays off about 500 workers, but most of them are expected to get offers to transfer to other factories, Automotive News reports. The move came just a day after GM announced adding 1,200 employees to the Detroit-Hamtramck plant. GM has been trying all year at the Orion Township factory to align production of the Sonic and Verano with their demand. The automaker first attempted idling the plant several times and eventually resorted to laying off about 100 workers. It also reduced the production rate there. With the huge rise in popularity of crossovers, demand for the plant's small cars is on the downturn. According to Automotive News, there's currently a 116-day supply of Sonics and 100 days of Veranos to sell. Delivers tell a similar tale because the Chevy is off 35.2 percent from January to September, and the Buick does little better with a 27.2 percent drop from the same period last year. While the situation at Orion Township might look rough now, big things are on the horizon. Soon, the new Chevy Bolt electric vehicle will be built there when it hits the market around 2017. Plus, the plant will also get a $245-million upgrade and 300 new jobs for another, unannounced vehicle.
