This is a Real Rare Find! NO RESERVE!
All original 1983 Buick Riviera 2 door Luxury Coupe. This very highly optioned vehicle has been in my family since new. Very low original mileage of only 44,422. Loaded with factory options such as climate control, power seats, power windows and locks, power antenna(currently not working), tungsten halogen headlights and so much more. This car was purchased new by my grandparents at Vern Eide Buick in Sioux Falls, SD. My dad currentley owns it and I am assisting him in selling it. Car is extremely clean and has always been garaged and covered since new. The car is nearly 100% original except for the driver front fender that was replaced about 10 years ago when the original front tire came apart and damaged it. It was repaired by the Buick dealership and there are no signs of the damage whatsoever. Also, the Riviera emblem on the hood was stolen about 20 years ago and an original replacement was never found. The one on there now is not original to the car but it was the best emblem my grandfather could find. The factory exhaust has been replaced as well.
The car is in excellent shape overall and runs and drives superbly. The color is an upgraded option code D83 and is called Firemist. The paint and body are very nice but do show some minor wear such as a few scratches, nics, and two dings on the hood. The plastic filler panels behind the front and rear bumpers have cracked(see pics). The wire wheel hubcaps are in excellent condition and even come with the original locking tool for the hubcaps. the tires are all in great shape. The interior shows very little signs of wear with exception of the headliner which is starting to sag in a few spots(see pics). The seats and carpet are near perfect and there are no smells or odors in the cars. Original floor mats also show very little wear. The dash is perfect with no cracks or waves at all. All factory options work as they should with the exception of the power antenna. The engine is very clean and runs really smooth. The transmission works as it should but will drip some after sitting for awhile. All of the original paperwork, books, window sticker, and Bose casstte tapes are all original with car.
Car is for sale locally so I do reserve the right the right to end auction early. Serious buyers can call my father Kim directly at 864-915-6356 or you can email me through eBay and I will do my best to get all questions answered. I have done my best to desrcibe this car as accuratley and honestly as possible. Anyone is more than welcome to come and inspect the car. I have taken a lot pictures so please look over them carefully. This is a link to my photobucket with more pictures.
I have done my best to describe this car as accuratley as possible with that being said I will not make any concessions for anything inadvertently left out of the description.

Despite strong profits, GM still fighting flat market share
Fri, Jan 17 2014Looking at the progress General Motors has made since it entered bankruptcy, it's easy to forget that the company still has a long way to go before it's the juggernaut it once was. A recent report from Reuters points out that, while GM is making money, it isn't making any gains in terms of US market share. Quite the opposite, really. Consider this factoid: In 1963, nearly half of the cars sold in the United States were from Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick, GMC or Pontiac. Now, the company's US market share is stagnant at 17.9 percent. That same number is half of just Chevy's 1963 market share. This is all despite GM going on a binge replacing or updating its models. "Market share increases are not instantaneous," Mark Reuss told Reuters at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show. "We've got a lot of baggage. Don't underestimate what people though of us, or these brands, through these hardships and 30 years." The reasons for the stagnant market share are numerous. Reuters points out that retooling of factories and a focus on limiting incentives are both good things for profit, but not necessarily for market share. There's also the troubling turnover of the brand's marketing department. These issues don't change the fact that Chevrolet has lost 1.4 percent of its market share in two years, and that Cadillac - arguably GM's most improved brand overall - has lost 1.2 percent in the same period. Part of that can be blamed on GM's avoidance of fleet sales in favor of more profitable customer sales. "Our focus has really been on retail and that's where we've got the growth," said Alan Batey, GM's interim global marketing boss. "We want to grow GM and that means growing market share and profits, but it's not at all costs," Reuss said.

2013 Buick Verano Turbo
Thu, 03 Jan 2013Not Luxury. Not Sport. Not Buick. Not Bad.
Those of you who still think of the Buick Verano as some sort of callously badge-engineered, gussied up version of the Chevrolet Cruze ("Why would anyone spend that much money on Buick's Cruze?" you may have been heard to mutter) have got the wrong idea. Entirely. Even in its most modest form, the Verano turns out to be a sedan that is feature-rich, insulated from wind and road noise in proper luxury car fashion, pretty good to drive and not bad to look at in the new school of high-nosed pedestrian-impact-regulated fashion. In a less modest form then, one that attaches the word "Turbo" to the moniker and plops a force-fed 2.0-liter four-cylinder under the hood, the Verano is downright interesting.
Of course, "interesting" is rarely a descriptor that fills one with lust - and so it goes with this example. There are two competing forces within this near-premium subcompact sedan, and the balance struck between them must resonate with any potential customer before the Verano Turbo can become a serious purchase consideration.
