I am the second owner of this vehicle - original owner was a family friend.<><>Vehicle has been parked and not driven since 2000 with current DMV NON-OP.<><>Fresh fuel and fuilds have been maintained and I ran the engine bi-monthly.<><>The engine does/and always has run smooth - no abnormal or unusual noises.<><>With the exception of an occasional dead battery, this vehicle has never failed to start for me.<><>While road operated, oil was changed every 3K.<><> ALL ORIGINAL BODY, ENGINE, INTERIOR, PAINT, GLASS, ETC..<><>Other than oil, plugs, filters, brake pads, etc.... I believe the only parts I replaced (years ago) were the shocks and master cylinder. The engine is a GM350V8 with a 4 barrel carburetor.<><><><><>DISCLOSURE: KNOWN  ISSUES: 1) There are areas (patches) of rust around the back windshield and back side glass. CAUSE: Over the years the vinyl top had ripped allowing water to be trapped at the base of the roof. This vehicle has only and always been in California - there is no lower body rust. 2) The valve cover gaskets are dry and cracked so when the engine runs for 5 to10 minutes, smoke can be seen coming off the exhaust mainfolds. No major leaks from lower end/oil pan area but there are some in the transmission area. Back when I drove it, I did have to add transmission fluid once a month or so to keep the level up and avoid slippage.<><> Engine never burned any noticable amount of oil (i.e.- didn't blow smoke). 3) Paint is completely faded and interior shows wear on driver's seat and driver's floor board, otherwise overall fair to decent condition for it age. 4) Some trim and molding missing or damaged and much of the rubber/grommets are worn and/or torn. 5) For reasons unknown (?) the trunk lock recently stopped working, but the full size spare was out when this occurred. I chose not to force it open in the case that it can be repaired or opened from inside.<><><><><> POSITIVES: "ALL ORIGINAL - NO ACCIDENTS - RUNNING/LOW MILEAGE ENGINE (under 68K)"<><><><><> My goal was to someday restore it, but I no longer have the time, space, money, and/or energy. This car was always very pleasurable to drive. It was solidly built, weighing in at aprx.5700 lbs.. With a fair amount of TLC this vehicle can again be made road worthy.<><><><><>   PAYMENT: Within 2 DAYS of winning bid I require a $500 DEPOSIT to be made through PayPal and the balance to be paid in CASH, IN PERSON, at the time buyer takes possession of the vehicle. Possession of vehicle is to be taken within than 10 DAYS of cleared deposit. BUYER TO ARRANGE FOR TRANSPORT. Extra time may be allotted to facilitate buyer's transport arrangements as long as PAYMENT HAS BEEN MADE IN FULL. I have not tried to mask or hide any of this vehicle's issues, i.e.- primering, sanding, faded paint areas and/or puttying rusted areas, because I felt it best to let the buyer see it as it currently and physically is. Conversely, the white patches/areas above the back side windows are actually some kind of glue or putty the manufacturer used to hold down the vinyl top.<><> I will gladly answer any and all questions, please ask before you bid. I can also supply more detailed and specific area photos at inquirers request.    

Thank you.

2014 Buick LaCrosse to sticker at $34,060*

Tue, 18 Jun 2013

Buick first showed the facelifted 2014 LaCrosse at this year's New York Auto Show, and General Motors' luxury-ish arm has now confirmed that pricing for the updated sedan will start at $34,060 (*including $925 for destination), a increase of $1,505 over the 2013 model.
Buyers will be treated to an updated appearance, both inside and out. On the outside, tweaks were made to the LaCrosse's front and rear fascias, and new wheels are on offer (though the ones seen on the car pictured above seem to have been simply pulled from the 2011 Regal Turbo). Inside, there's a much cleaner center stack layout, complete with a standard eight-inch reconfigurable touchscreen IntelliLink interface. Buick is also offering a new Ultra Luxury interior package ($2,495), featuring Tamo Ash wood throughout the cabin, black synthetic suede on the headliner and leather seats in a new sangria color. Standalone options include different wheels, Bose audio, rear seat entertainment, navigation and a sunroof.
The 2014 LaCrosse's base powertrain is the trusty 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine with eAssist, which is capable of achieving up to 36 miles per gallon on the highway. But for folks wanting more power, a 304-horsepower, 3.6-liter V6 is available as a no-cost option, available with either front- or all-wheel drive.

Looking back at how and why GM saved Buick

Mon, Dec 19 2016

Still uncomfortably fresh in our collective minds is 2008, the year when the US economy tanked, auto sales collapsed, and both General Motors and Chrysler endured federally managed bankruptcies. Then 2009, when, among other draconian measures, the government task forces dictating what they were compelled to do to earn taxpayer financial support ordered thousands of dealers cut and GM to discontinue four of its eight US brands. Three of those chosen for GM's axe were fairly obvious: off-road icon Hummer had become politically incorrect, Swedish-born Saab was a perennial money loser, and product-starved Saturn had sadly sagged after its strong early start. On the other hand, high-volume value brand Chevrolet, luxury Cadillac, and high-profit GMC seemed clear keepers. That left Pontiac and Buick, both boasting strong brand heritage and histories but both languishing at the time with lackluster image and sales. Most believed that "old man's car" Buick would be killed and once-youthful Pontiac and its performance image would be revived. So few understood why when exactly the opposite happened: Buick lived, Pontiac died. One key factor was Buick's long, distinguished history in China. In the early 20th century, many of that country's most influential citizens owned, drove, or were driven in Buicks. By 1930, one out of every six cars on the roads in Shanghai was a Buick. So when GM launched vehicle production at a Shanghai joint-venture plant in 1999, the chosen brand was Buick. Today it remains GM's best-selling brand in that fast-growing market. Another was an appealing new design direction that began with a shapely 2006 three-row crossover concept called Enclave. Inspired by the Buick Velite concept convertible of 2004, its curvaceous "form vocabulary," GM Design vice president Ed Welburn said at the time, previewed coming Buick production car and CUV design. "The body shape flows, like there's wind blowing over it," he enthused, adding that the Enclave concept's richly trimmed cabin foretold "a renaissance in interior design for GM." And when the production Enclave arrived for 2008, followed by platform siblings from Saturn and GMC (and later Chevrolet), it indeed caught the public's eye and started selling well. And once past GM's painful and embarrassing bankruptcy, Buick has been on a major roll. Continuing to sell strongly in China while growing substantially in the US, it has enjoyed four straight years of global sales records.
