Bidding on a very clean 1986 Buick GN with just over 104K Original miles with only 2 previous owners with a very clean History report, No accidents!! I can fax you the Carfax if you would like to see it before placing bids. This is one clean GN all restored with 1 repaint, was taken down to bare metal before repainting, no overspray. As most know the factory paint was not known to hold up over the years. Also all Factory bumper fillers which were known to crack have been replaced. This GN also came equipped from the factory with some very nice rare options including the Astroroof ( CF-5 ) or Sunroof which actually still functions properly, most collectors prefer the astroroof over the T-tops because they did not make many still maintaining the upper structure of the GN, especially in 86 where there was only just over 5k Grand Nationals produced, comparing to over 20K Grand Nationals built in 1987. Another very nice option was the Limited slip posi-traction ( G-80 ) which is a must have for any GN owner, have driven them without the posi-traction and they do not handle the same at all. Other options including the light weight aluminum bumper brackets and rear defogger to name a few. All of these optioned mentioned are also verified on the Service Parts Identification Label found on the inside of the trunk lid. The engine compartment is one of the cleanest I have seen with no leaks of any kind, Also has been all restored to factory with all new hoses. The 3.8 Turbo sounds great and is mechanically sound with just over 100K miles, will not need anything in the near future, still has more power then you will ever think of using. The Interior is all Original also and is like Brand New with No tears or stains, no odors of any kind. The undercarriage is all rust-free and does not have any issues, a very clean driver overall ready for the new owner to enjoy. Also has brand new dual exhaust and new tires last year with only 3000 miles on them. To nitpick I would say the rear speakers will need replaced, needs a cig lighter (if needed) and a small piece of chrome is missing off the drivers door interior panel and the Original factory rims could use restored if you want them perfect but look nice for a driver. Average Nada price is well above my low reserve and these Buicks are appreciating every day. A $500 Non-refundable Deposit is due as soon as auction ends, and the balance in a cashiers check within 7 days or cash when car is picked up, I can hold the car in my garage until the car is picked up but full payment is required within 7 days of auction end. Any Questions please ask before placing bids. I can help with Transporting to anywhere in the US at buyers expense. Only serious bidders please, these auctions are Not cheap, Thanx and Good luck!!

Buick picks top 11 highlights from first 11 decades
Sun, 21 Apr 2013Buick has taken the time to highlight some of the company's personal points of pride from the past 110 years. Those include everything from the automaker's very first vehicle, the 1904 Model B, to what Buick claims is the world's first concept car: The 1938 Y Job (above). That one also walked away with the worst name for a design study.
All told, the automaker has sold 43 million vehicles through the end of last year, and those include the lusty 1963 Riviera. That model celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2013, and remains one of the brand's most iconic designs.
Of course, Buick is rightfully proud of its quickest model, too. The 1987 GNX managed a 4.6-second bolt to 60 mph in tests by Car and Driver, and it also took the honor of being one of the automaker's rarest creations at just 547 units. You can check out all 10 in the gallery above.
GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say
Fri, 05 Apr 2013The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
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.
