Here is a car that you don't see much anymore. Back in the 80s, the Buick LeSabre was a large car based on the Chevrolet Caprice but with a better ride and a more luxurious and upscale feel. This one is no exception! It is a very nice car that is nearly impossible to find. Full Length video can be found here... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Kn8EhYYDig&list=UUwtnHVaD_n8gcqWQ_CyLYQQ Its a 1985 Buick LeSabre Custom 4 dr. sedan. It was purchased brand new here in Bradenton Fl. at Conley Buick in 1985 and has only a shade over 59K original miles since new. It was garage kept its entire life, and it shows. It has all power options, AC, tilt, cruise, cloth seats and wire wheel covers. I bought if from the original owners family at a garage sale a few weeks ago. I looked it over, replaced the bumper filler panels, cleaned it up a bit and now I am in love with it, but I must sell it to replace it with a small van or pickup. I will walk you around the car and describe it exactly as I know it. Exterior The paint is all original, not a spec of rust or paint work (except for the bumper fillers) can be found on any of the sheet metal. It has been waxed many many times in its life and there are traces of wax buildup but I removed most of it. I put on a fresh coat of nano wax after I replaced the bumper fillers. I also replaced the cracked grill with an NOS GM unit. All of the lights, chrome trim, and glass are in mint condition, the tires are like new Firestones and the wire wheel covers are perfect. A good professional detail would make it look even better. There are some minor dings on the passenger rear door and a few other light scratches and dings. From 5 feet away, this car looks showroom new. The color is Light Sage, which is not the nicest color but it grows on you fast. I would rate the exterior a 8 out of 10 Interior I didn't touch the interior, as pictured is the way I got the car. It is nearly flawless. It could use a carpet shampoo as there are some chocolate spots and a couple of tar spots under the drivers floor mat. The headliner is just starting to sag on the passengers side. The seats are near perfect, the dash and door panels are in great shape. No odd odors, non-smoker car. The drivers side power seat gear is stripped but that's an easy fix. The power windows are a little slow but a good lubrication would help. I would rate the interior a 7 out of 10 Mechanical The engine runs perfect. The transmission shifts perfect. Steering is tight and the brakes are smooth. The tires are just slightly flat spotted from sitting which is no big deal. It drives like a new car. The AC is ice cold and everything seems to work as it should except the power seat. All lights work perfectly and the radio sounds good however the left front speaker doesn't seem to work. I would rate this car a 9 out of 10 mechanically. Overall This would make a great cruiser for the 80s fan or a great custom car. All of my neighbors have raved about this car and talk about how you just don't see these anymore. Its the kind of classic that you can live with. Turn the AC on, drive it in the rain, etc. It has the original owners manuals, some service records, all 4 original keys and I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere. Its that nice of a car. I would give this car and overall condition rating of 8.5 out of 10 Please look at all of my photos and if you have any questions you can call me at 941-720-0300 my name is Jason |

GM will recall more than 3.3 million vehicles in China for suspension defect
Sat, Sep 29 2018BEIJING (Reuters) - General Motors' joint venture in China, Shanghai GM, will recall more than 3.3 million Buick, Chevrolet and Cadillac vehicles stating Oct. 20 because of a defect with the suspension system, China's market regulator said on Saturday. GM Shanghai said in a text message to Reuters that the suspension arm may be deformed under extreme operating conditions, but there are no known casualties related to the issue. The recall includes cars produced between 2013 and 2018, the State Administration for Market Regulation said in a statement. GM will contact those affected and repair the vehicles free of charge, it said.

eBay Find of the Day: 1981 DeLorean with 570-hp twin-turbo Buick V6 [w/videos]
Mon, 23 Dec 2013"Are you telling me that you built a time machine... out of a DeLorean?" So asked one Marty McFly of his mentor Dr. Emmett Brown, who replied: "The way I see it, if you're gonna build a time machine into a car, why not do it with some style?"
Doc Brown was right, of course: with an exotic mid-engine layout, gullwing doors and stainless steel body, the DeLorean DMC-12 sure looked the part. It just needed a little more juice. Well this one might not have 1.21 gigawatts of time-bending power - that'd be more than one and a half million horsepower - but it does have more than the 150 hp in the the standard 2.8-liter V6.
That's because this particular DeLorean has had its stock Peugeot Renault Volvo engine swapped out for a Buick-sourced, all-aluminum, 4.3-liter V6 from the Grand National. Dutteiller Performance didn't leave the engine in stock form, either: while they were swapping it out, they added a pair of turbochargers, new pistons, crank, cams and much, much more.
2014 Buick LaCrosse updated with new styling, tech
Mon, 25 Mar 2013Buick might have one of the smallest lineups among major automakers, but by the time the 2014 model rolls around, it will definitely have one of the freshest. Debuting at the New York Auto Show this week, the 2014 Buick LaCrosse receives numerous styling changes inside and out, and it benefits from many of the same new features found on closely related models like the Cadillac XTS and the 2014 Chevrolet Impala.
Exterior changes are relatively minor, but they still help give the car a fresh, new look. The new face of the 2014 LaCrosse fits in with recently new or redesigned Buick models with its oversized waterfall grille, LED-trimmed headlights and the signature hood vents being moved to the side of the hood rather than the top. Similar changes have been made to the rear, like the reshaped LED taillights, the full-width chrome trim and a new fascia design; LaCrosse models equipped with the 3.6-liter V6 will still get the integrated exhaust finishers but they're executed in a more stylish manner than the current model. Finishing off the exterior, new wheel designs are also being introduced, which will include bringing 20-inch wheels to the sedan's option list.
Inside, Buick redesigned almost the entire cabin to create a more luxurious and upscale appearance. The instrument panel is essentially carried over, but pretty much everything else has been redesigned and updated with the biggest change being to the driver's area. Dual eight-inch configurable displays make up the center stack and gauge cluster, while the overall number of buttons have been reduced from 17 down to just seven. The 2014 LaCrosse will also be offered with the next-generation IntelliLink, which receives many of the same enhancements as Chevy's latest version of MyLink adding better customization, improved voice commands and more features including Pandora. Additionally, new door panels, seat and center console complete the LaCrosse's interior redesign.
