Condition: I would say it is in very good condition. It has the tiniest amount of rust from its first 2 years in the NE. Both bottom corners of the doors have a little rust, also, the corners of the trunk underneath the rear window, have a small amount of rust. One of them has been rigged with a plastic bag so that water does not seep into the trunk. The other side is not leaking. There is some pitting on the chrome components in the engine bay. The car was sitting in a carport for 8 years in South Florida so the paint is not in the best condition. The owner had it fixed about a year ago to get it running again. It had ran fine when he parked it 8 years ago, but not so much 8 years later. The fuel injection system, ignition, and fuel injectors had to be replaced, a new battery was added, and the gas tank was removed, cleaned, and resprayed. He has put about a thousand problem free miles since then. There is one small crack in the dash from the sun. There are absolutely no stains, burns or tears whatsoever on the seats, carpets, door panels, trunk carpet, or any other interior surface. The pictures don't do it justice because of the light, but interior is in tip top shape. Everything works, AC, Radio, Turn signals, lights, windows, etc. It is in need of a very minor cosmetic restoration to get this to concours quality.

Features: If you are intending to do a full restoration, we have the original rims available for a nominal fee.

History: The vehicle was originally owned by the current owners Sergeant from Vietnam in the NE. He bought it after he had had it for a couple of years and the vehicle was relocated to South Florida from the NE. He had it parked in a carport for the last 8 years, and it ran fine when he parked it. To get it running again, he had the fuel injection system, battery, ignition system and injectors replaced. The gas tank was removed, drained, cleaned, and resprayed.He has put about a thousand trouble free miles on it since he got it running again, he also put new Michelin tires on it. He held onto the vehicle for sentimental reasons, but is retired now, and the car is just not practical for him anymore. I wanted to do the full restoration and try to get high retail for the vehicle or send it to the Barrett Jackson Arizona auction, but he does not want to put any more money into it and wants to sell it as is.

Shipping and Payment: Buyer responsible for shipping arrangements. Cashiers check, cash, or money order are acceptable forms of payment, as well as paypal. Potential buyers can come visit the vehicle during the auction period, please contact me if you wish to do so. The vehicle is located in the Pinecrest-Dadeland area of Miami.

Buick Envision aces IIHS crash tests

Tue, Sep 27 2016

If you had any qualms about the safety of a Chinese-built car, set them aside. At least when it comes to the Buick Envision. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has tested the new GM crossover and it passed with flying colors. The Envision is the first Chinese-built Buick sold in the States, and it's also the first Chinese-built car the organization has ever tested. In what is an impressive feat for any new automobile, it earned the IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+ rating. This means the crossover comes equipped with a forward collision warning system and earned "Good" marks in all types of collisions, including the difficult small overlap crash test. In addition to the forward collision warning system, an automatic emergency braking system is available on the Envision. Eleven other vehicles earned the TOP SAFETY PICK+ rating, including models from Volvo, Lincoln, Acura, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, Lexus and Infiniti. That's good company, and combined with a pleasant, if not world-beating, driving experience, should make the Envision a car worth consideration. Related Video:

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.

Hyundai, Buick dealer apologize in wake of Chinese baby social media incident

Sat, 09 Mar 2013

A very strange story out of China today, as Hyundai and a Chinese Buick dealer were forced to face allegations of using allusions to an infamous child murder on a social media site as a way of promoting the safety features of their respective vehicles.
The original sad tale goes something like this: On March 4, a man reported to police that he had left his infant child in a running Toyota RAV4 while he ran into a supermarket briefly. When he came back out, the vehicle and the child were gone. Later in the week a suspect turned himself in to the police; confessing to them that he had stolen a sport-utility vehicle, strangled the infant that was in it, and then buried the child in the snow.
As you might imagine, the gristly incident was covered massively in the Chinese media. (There was huge public outcry as well, as evidenced by the vigil scene, above.) "Changchun baby abduction" was very quickly amongst the highest ranking search teams of the China's Weibo social media site - an equivalent of Twitter in the English-speaking world.
