1996 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon Collector's Edition-Very Nice Condition - Low Mileage One-family
owned, beautiful condition 1996 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon Collector's
Edition. This is the last of the full-sized, rear wheel drive, station
wagons, and Buick did it up right with the 1996 Collector Edition which is
today highly regarded and becoming quite rare to find in nice condition with
low mileage. There is a lot of
information online about this special car and all the features it has – so I will touch on what I think are the
important things for you to know. This vehicle has been well cared for, always garaged and recently serviced. Everything works (i.e.: AC, windows, original Concert Sound radio & power antenna, and power seats, ETC). It is in excellent condition inside and out. The interior, including the leather seats, is just about perfect. The only exterior blemishes are a small dent in the hood (hard to photograph) and some minor “Di-noc” wood grain issues (see photos). The paint is shiny and new looking and there is absolutely no rust. All side moldings are in great shape and firmly attached. All chrome is very nice. The front and rear bumpers have minimal scratches in the paint. The doors have no (that I can see) parking lot dings. The undercarriage is clean with no rust. The vehicle has the Corvette LT 1, 5.7-liter engine with dual exhaust and gives excellent mileage (18 city-27 hwy). The
Roadmaster is fully loaded with all the Collector Edition factory options—from
automatic driving lights, leather covered steering wheel, PosiTraction, power everything,
down to the wire wheels. All tires are in excellent condition including the
full size spare tire. This car drives great, is very quiet, has great power and
acceleration, and is super comfortable. With a trailer hitch, this car is rated to tow 7000lbs. The Roadmaster has recently passed the Connecticut State Emission Test. You are
welcome to inspect this Roadmaster or call to ask any questions. Please give me
a call to arrange a time to view this car – you can also use the eBay Message
System – I am usually quite prompt with replies. The winning bidder will receive a clean Connecticut Title and Bill of Sale. This car is for local pickup, or I can assist with loading onto a commercial car carrier. Thanks, Bob (Phone 860-535-0242) Note: The reserve price is very very low based what similar cars have sold for on eBay. (Call I'll be glad to discuss it)

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
Buick mulling more powerful Encore; diesel too
Mon, 21 Oct 2013Looking to set itself apart in the mid-luxury segment, Buick is looking to introduce a diesel engine somewhere in its US lineup. And according to Edmunds, the two best chances of a diesel Buick rest with the Encore and Verano.
In both our First Drive and Review of the 2013 Encore, our chief complaint about the compact crossover was the the lack of power from the 138-horsepower turbo engine. Edmunds says that the recently introduced 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine (with both gas and diesel variants) from the Encore's overseas cousin, the Opel Mokka, could make its way into the Encore delivering the much-needed boost in power.
Then there's the Verano. As a close relative to the Chevy Cruze, which just added a diesel engine for 2014, the article speculates that a Verano Diesel might actually be the more "probably candidate" if and when Buick decides to add a diesel model to its portfolio. Either way, offering such an engine in one of its products could be a great way for Buick to differentiate itself from Cadillac and possibly even attract buyers from Volkswagen, Audi and Mercedes-Benz looking for a luxurious, fuel-efficient vehicle.
Buick Velite Plug-In Hybrid Concept debuts to little fanfare
Sat, Nov 19 2016Buick pulled the covers off its latest Velite Concept at the Auto Guangzhou 2016 show in China. We say latest because this is actually the second time Buick has used the Velite name for a concept, the previous having been shown at the 2004 New York Auto Show. The first Velite concept was a two-door convertible; the second Velite is a four-door crossover. Enough about the name, what about the concept? Well, it's very highly stylized, and we don't really mean that in a good way. There's nothing about the Velite that screams Buick, except for its badges, of course. At the front is a compressed version of Buick's traditional waterfall-like fascia. It's flanked by slit-like LED lighting elements. The rest of the face looks to our eyes like it draws inspiration from the latest Toyota Prius. There isn't a single flat element to the Velite Concept's bodysides, in a way that resembles recent concepts from Infiniti. The last bit of styling flourish are deep recesses just ahead of the rear wheels, a look that is reminiscent of BMW's i-series of vehicles. There aren't any images showing the Velite's hind quarters, but from what we can see, that also has a QX-ish look about it. There are no shots yet of the Velite's interior, but Buick says it's "elegant" and "includes recycled materials." We wish we could see what it looks like, because the automaker says it "[points] to design trends for upcoming new energy vehicles." So, the Buick Velite Concept is a nondescript mashup of design elements that we've already seen. Under the skin, however, things are more interesting. It's a plug-in hybrid with a modular lithium ion battery. That doesn't tell us much – it could be a variant of the Chevy Volt, or it could be a different system altogether. We look forward to finding out. In the meantime, have a look at the high-res image gallery up above. Oh, and if you're wondering, the word velite traces its roots back to a lightly armored military division in ancient Rome. Related Video:
