You are bidding on a Buick GNX, this is #234 of only 547 produced. This Buick was originally purchased in June of 1988 by the current and only owner, the title will show two owners as it was transferred from his company to himself after he retired. Please look over all pictures carefully and come see the car or hire an independant evaluator to verify condition of the vehicle prior to placing ANY BIDS!
This is a driver quality GNX and the reserve is set accordingly, it is not your 10 original mile,bagged in plastic museum vehicle this car has been enjoyed for 25 years and driven. Please dont contact me to tell me this or that is not correct, I will respond to inquiries from potential buyers, not GNX history buffs or experts! I dont own the vehicle, I am selling it for a friend. All sales are final and the car leaves AS IS with absolutely no warranty expressed or implied. Now that we have that out of the way....
Body: The body is extremely straight, never any rust. The car has been painted professionally for several years, was disassembled and stripped to bare metal and refinished with urethane base/clear. There is a small scratch on the front bumper and front filler, there is also a scratch on the rear bumper and the rear fillers need to be replaced.
Interior: There is absolutely no wear on any of the seats, the dash is not cracked and the carpet is not worn anywhere, the horn ring has been replaced and it has the wrong emblem in the center.
Drivetrain: The engine was removed and completely freshened by a local machine shop/engine builder, wrapped in plastic and stored until recently, During this time another high performance engine was installed and the vehicle was driven very little. The original numbers matching engine has now been reinstalled and has ZERO miles on it. The trans shifts firm and positive with no delay and the rear end is quiet. The front suspension is tight, tires and brakes are good.
Misc: The original ceramic turbo has been replaced by a stock Grand National unit, it was removed over 20 years ago to prevent and damage or destruction common with the ceramic impeller. This factory low mileage, original GNX turbo is included with the sale. The car drives nice and tight with no wind noise or rattles. The owner does not have the GNX jacket, owners packet, etc...
PLEASE VIEW ALL PICTURES CAREFULLY, I WILL DO MY BEST TO ACCURATELY ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS!

First 2013 Buick Encore TV ad features... dinosaurs
Thu, 14 Mar 2013The whole "SUVs as dinosaurs" trope has become something of a threadbare cliché among auto writers, but that doesn't mean the wider world of consumers has caught on to the Jurassic nature of our line of thinking. That's what General Motors appears to be betting on, at least. Just check out Buick's first television spot for its 2013 Encore, the tiny crossover that is pushing the Tri-Shield into territories unknown while looking to outrun the brand's reputation as a refuge for elderly clientele.
Set to air this weekend on ESPN during the NCAA college basketball tournament, the ad plays up the Encore's maneuverability and surprising interior space by setting the baby Buick amongst a herd of lumbering CG dinosaurs created by Tippett Studio, the folks behind Hollywood blockbusters like Jurassic Park, Ted, and the Twilight series of films.
We can't help but snigger a little - while the Encore is indeed surprisingly roomy, nimble, and composed, our first drive found it to be glacially slow, too... not unlike a certain prehistoric race of animals. Check out the commercial below and judge for yourself.
Buick really wants us to know the new Cascada convertible won't leak
Thu, Apr 16 2015Quality 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 250,000 SUVs over door electronics
Mon, 20 Aug 2012After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.
