1998 Buick Riviera Base Coupe 2-door 3.8l on 2040-cars
Jackson, Michigan, United States
|
I have a beautiful 1998 Buick Riviera, loaded with every option, including a moonroof. Silver metallic exterior and silver leather interior. The supercharged 3800 V6 under the hood is in perfect mechanical condition and runs great. There are no mechanical problems with this car - I've had any problem fixed professionally by a reputable shop, right down to the tiniest leak. It leaks nothing and uses no fluids. It has four brand new tires on it, with a new alignment. The transmission was flushed and serviced at the same time, and shifts as it should. This motor and transmission are known to run easily over 250K miles, and more if properly maintained. The car has plenty of power, and respectable gas mileage, and is very dependable. The front wheel drive and new tires make this car amazing in the snow.
If you're familiar with these cars, you're aware that they are prone to the cradle (which holds the engine, etc. in place) rusting out. This car has none of that - the shop said that it was incredibly clean, and perhaps the cleanest they've seen. It has 176K miles, but you wouldn't know it. It drives like a new car, and is very comfortable. There are a couple very minor dents in the body, as you would expect from a car of this age. The paint is nice, but not perfect, with some minor scuffs in the clear coat that are hard to notice. The passenger door handle is quirky, and the mechanism should be replaced. For an offer near the asking price, I will have this fixed. The heater control recently became intermittent, but both heat and A/C work very well. Overall, this is a very nice example of an American luxury sport coupe that drives great. These cars are getting very hard to find in this condition. Thanks for your time. |

2015 Buick Verano gets styling tweak, loses 6-speed manual
Fri, 06 Jun 2014Well, all good things must come to an end. For 2015, the Buick Verano's experiment with a manual transmission will cease, as the American manufacturer has announced it will discontinue the 6MT in the turbocharged version of its compact sedan. According to Buick, the take rate on the Verano Turbo 6MT was (unsurprisingly) low, leading to its discontinuation.
That's not the only bit of news for the Verano, though. After a few years on the market, Buick has seen fit to refresh the popular sedan. The visual changes aren't huge, really, with subtle tweaks to the headlights and taillights. We'd bargain that the average passer-by wouldn't notice a difference between the two.
The main aesthetic change is a new appearance package, available on the mid-range Convenience and Leather option groups. Unimaginatively called just that - Appearance Package - it offers up a new paint color, Desert Dusk Metallic, as well as a grille treatment and a rear spoiler. The new package is, however, limited to naturally aspirated models.
Buick might be getting a logo makeover
Fri, 23 Nov 2012General Motors has finished off an extensive model overhaul for its Buick division, but along with its updated cars, the brand might also be getting a new logo. According to the Detroit Free Press, GM North America President Mark Reuss indicated that the Buick tri-shield logo could be getting a makeover, but offered no further information.
It is unlikely Buick will completely redesign or replace its current logo, but the article seems to indicate that it might return to color; although all chrome now, the logo used to feature red, white and blue shields. Head on over to the Detroit Free Press article to look at some past Buick logos including one from 1904.
Thanks for keeping us on our toes, Detroit Auto Show [w/poll]
Wed, Jan 14 2015Here at Autoblog, we love unexpected debuts at auto shows – and judging by our Detroit Auto Show comments and traffic, you do, too. Surprise reveals have been fewer and farther between in recent years with so many ways for vehicles to be teased or leak out, but this week's show has been a revelation. More to the point, it's been a series of revelations, with automakers from around the globe successfully delivering a brace of concept and production surprises. It's made our jobs a lot more exciting and challenging this week, and even though it's actually more work to react and run-and-gun when the sheet is pulled on a surprise reveal than it is to publish an already-written embargoed story, we've had more fun covering this show for you than any domestic show in memory. We hope you've enjoyed the surprises along with us. To that end, borrowing the words of an unnamed automaker PR flack, we'd like to thank the following automakers for enduring "mountain of antacids" and that "creeping sense of paranoia" necessary to keeping ones' wares totally under wraps until the sheets are pulled off the sheetmetal: Buick Avenir concept Chevrolet Bolt concept Ford GT concept Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R Ford F-150 SVT Raptor Hyundai HCD-15 Santa Cruz concept And while we're at it, we'd like to throw in an shout-out to Detroit's substantially revised and revitalized Cobo Center, and in particular, the redone Michelin media center, which is arguably the single best accommodations for writing show stories that we've encountered on the entire international circuit. Well done, everyone. Thank you, and keep the surprises coming. Auto News Detroit Auto Show Buick Chevrolet Ford Hyundai Volvo 2015 Detroit Auto Show
