1984 Buick Grand National Tv Series "life" Car on 2040-cars
Howell, New Jersey, United States
You are bidding on a 84 Buick Grand National. It has been modified for the NBC TV show "life". It has 87 interior and engine. A/C was removed for more power. There is no docments showing this car is the show car but if you watched the show this car is it from bumper to bumper inside and out. Even sounds exactly like it. When I saw this car up for auction I knew the car and the TV show, I knew exactly where the police lights would have been mounted and asked owner to look for holes, wires etc and sure enough they were there. When I got the car I verified the mounting holes were there and even found the strobe lights were left in the parking light bezels. Interior is in nice shape. Overall car is real nice and clean needing just little odds and ends. Also needs rear bumper fillers the following was replaced previously,all engine gaskets, seals. Car is dry with no leaks from engine or underneath. Speedometer inop and shows 17874 so had to be rolled atleast once. The undercarriage is real nice and super clean. No rust whats so ever underneath or anywhere on car. Paint has a lot of cracks and scratches but overall still shines real nice. Body is straight as a arrow not one ding on it. mods are as follows: - Brand new front and rear shocks -all motor mounts replaced -Detroit lockers on differential -headers -flowmaster exhaust system -upgraded turbo kit -larger intercooler and hoses -torque converter -B&M quicksilver shifter -AFM module -boost control -heavy duty U joint and drive shaft Walbro 255 LPH I got this car 3 months ago. I was so happy to have gotten it since I was a huge fan of the show and loved this car from the show. when I got it, car ran rough due to aftermarket plugs and wires they had on it so replaced wires and plugs back to factory and now runs nice. Shifts on the dime. Cleaned up real nice with a nice deep shine. pervious owner replaced stock radio with aftermarket. I replaced hood pistons cause hood wouldn't stay open. really don't want to sell it. I was so happy to have gotten it but upon getting it my marriage went bad real fast so have to sell it only because I took a personal loan to but the car and cant afford all these payments on my own. This is the only reason I am letting it go. Tittle is clean Car is sold as is. I reserve the right to cancel at any point due to Car also being sold in local papers Really don't want to let it go. It was a chance to own TV history now its your chance!

2013 Buick Encore
Wed, 14 Aug 2013Ignored On Arrival, But Coming On Strong
An image exists out there that perfectly conveys the fate we thought would befall the Buick Encore after its world debut at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show. The shot shows the just-unveiled Encore on stage, basking in the glow of spotlights but surrounded by a large display area that's bereft of both cars and people. Two journalists are sitting on a couch over to the side, both facing the Encore but ignoring it as they inspect their swag, and a solitary custodial engineer pushes a vacuum back and forth across a sea of gray carpet.
Like a kid with his birthday cake at a party no one came to, this little crossover's debut was largely, almost cruelly, ignored. Who can blame us, though? Two shows ago, the Motor City's main stage welcomed the redesigned Aston Martin-esque Ford Fusion, the 3 Series-assassin ATS from Cadillac and the return of Dodge to the small car game with the Dart. A fourth model for the wayward Buick brand, especially one so arguably un-Buick in form and function, did not seem to deserve the attention paid to its peers that year.
What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name
Thu, 07 Aug 2014
The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
OnStar RemoteLink mobile app coming standard on all new GM vehicles
Thu, 06 Jun 2013As an evolution and improvement of its OnStar technology, General Motors has announced that it will be expanding the RemoteLink Mobile App on most 2014 model year Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac vehicles. The new, aptly named RemoteLink Key Fob Services will allow users to remotely operate all of the same systems as the car's key fob, including locking and unlocking the doors and remote starting (on vehicles equipped with a factory remote starter) using a smartphone.
These Key Fob Services will be free for five years - starting from the vehicle's delivery date - but the full suite of RemoteLink features will continue to be offered only with a subscription (trial or paid). These premium features include contacting a live adviser, getting turn-by-turn directions and remotely monitoring the vehicle's diagnostic systems.
