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. |

GM announces 6 recalls covering nearly 720k cars
Wed, 23 Jul 2014General Motors has announced yet another sprawling recall campaign, with six separate elements covering 717,950 vehicles on US roads. At this point in 2014, it's starting to seem like there are more days with a GM recall than without. Perhaps most troubling about this latest volley, though, is that every vehicle is from the past few years, indicating that GM's quality woes may not be limited to pre-bankruptcy vehicles.
The largest element of this latest campaign covers 414,333 units, and includes the 2011 to 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, 2010 to 2012 Chevy Equinox, GMC Terrain and Cadillac SRX and the 2011 to 2012 Buick Regal and LaCrosse. Only vehicles with powered, height-adjustable seats are covered. In these particular cars and crossovers, the bolt that secures the height adjuster actuator may loosen of its own accord and in some cases fall out completely. If this happens, the seats will be able to move both up and down. GM claims the vehicles are safe to drive, provided drivers don't vertically adjust their seats. This particular issue has caused one crash and three injuries.

Leno recalls '90s showdown with Tim Allen and his mullet
Wed, Oct 7 2015Not many of us have buddies with garages full of classic cars, but that isn't the case for Jay Leno and Tim Allen. Of course, one of the advantages for two guys with such vast collections is occasionally getting to pit their cars against each other. The two comedians did just that in the mid-'90s with a burnout battle on The Tonight Show between Allen in a race-prepped Mustang and Leno in a drag racer. After some time away from regular television, Leno is returning to the airwaves with a Jay Leno's Garage series premiering on Oct. 7 (tonight) at 10:00 p.m. ET on CNBC. Let this clip serve as another taste of what to expect for the new TV show's mix of comedy and cars. After reminiscing about the old days in a gorgeous garage, the comedians get into two modern machines to reprise the classic challenge – after a little trash talk anyway. Don't worry because the YouTube series isn't going anywhere, though.
Texas sues GM, saying it tricked customers into sharing driving data sold to insurers
Wed, Aug 14 2024Texas filed a lawsuit Tuesday against GM over years of alleged abuse of customers' data and trust. New car owners were presented with a "confusing and highly misleading" process that was implied to be for their safety, but "was no more than a deceptively designed sales flow" that surrendered their data for GM to sell. The suit contends that at no point was selling driving data ever even suggested as a possibility, putting GM in violation of the state's consumer protection laws. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is seeking a jury trial and at least $10,000 per offense (every GM car sold in the state since 2015) and a hefty add-on of $250,000 in cases where the victim was over 65. Texas seems to be flying high after a recent $1.4 billion settlement from Meta over other privacy concerns. This may well be a way to solve any pending budgetary issues in the Lone Star State.
