1987 Buick Grand National 9 second Street Car with multiple folders receipts and documentation all custom with only the best and most expensive parts and builders
I am a Physician and had the best builders, tuners and fabricators build this car from ground up for street and strip. There was no budget placed on the car and it ended up over 100K. The car was almost 20,000 initially and began about 5 years ago as an original undamaged 38,000 mile car. Engine and transmission was removed and stored and the car was taken apart professionally focusing on suspension and safety while engine and transmission were constructed.

the car is totally fresh only to car shows and work this year.

NO RUST!!! No accidents

Its ready for whatever the new intends to do, drive or race or both.

This car won GSCA last year and current record holder in THS class racing known as Turbo Hot Street

I even had another water pump welded with Fitting just in case this new one ever went bad

Even with front mount inter cooler has not ever overheated in summer

INTERCOOLING:

JVC CD/Radio player

Upgraded GNX dash and Gauges

The Bad

there is any not bad but a few things to be aware of

AC need charging, I dont use it

Speedometer works but is jumpy, probably needs calibrated or replaced cable

Car had less than 300 miles on engine and trans and only been to track once since all freshened and literally every piece of suspension, brakes, battery alternator etc is brand new

I have the origianal dash odometer prior to GNX dash added that foes with care

total car miles less than 45 K on the body

Why would I sell after all this crazy money was spent?

Because I dont have time to race as a busy Specialist Physician and I just bought a Gallardo and deal was I quit racing if got a Lambo with the wife and I have way too many cars, I have a crazy mustang notch back available with and without drive train I will also be listing as well

Ask questions as there is literally no way to list everything done to this car and the receipts and paper work alone require several large folders

I have it all and it goes with car.

More pics available if needed

Car located right by Cincinnati OHIO

Please no bidding if you do not have funds to buy in hand, car will appraise much higher than insured for, I only insured for 45,000 $ to keep the collector care insurance rate low

2013 Buick Encore

Mon, 10 Dec 2012

City, Slicker
We admit it. We have no earthly idea how this whole thing is going to shake out.
Typically, after driving a new car or truck, we come away prepared to hazard a guess as to whether said model has a good chance of being a sales success. We've amassed enough time watching the industry, scrutinizing the competitors, and so on, to make a reasonably educated bet. Yet here we are, days removed from driving the new 2013 Buick Encore, and we still have no bloody idea.

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles

Fri, 04 Jan 2013

As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
Scroll down for the full list of GM's million 30+ mpg cars as well as an informative press release.

Updated Buick LaCrosse, Regal to debut at New York Auto Show

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Judging by the spy shots we saw last week for the 2014 Buick LaCrosse and 2014 Buick Regal, we knew it wouldn't be much longer until we saw both sedans receive a grand debut. Today, Buick confirmed to Autoblog both cars will be introduced at the New York Auto Show next month, but no further information has yet been released about either model.
Having been on the market for an extra couple years, the changes to the LaCrosse appear to be more significant than those coming for the Regal, but both will be getting refreshed exterior designs as well as updated interiors. The Regal's new face brings it more in line with the all-new Encore and the restyled Enclave, while the LaCrosse should get a more distinctive, upscale appearance.
Both cars will be introduced exactly a month from today, and we'll be there to bring you all the coverage.
