You are viewing a beautiful 1975 Buick LeSabre convertible that I have owned for nearly two years but would now like to sell on to someone who will enjoy it as much as I have. This car is in extremely nice condition as I have tried to capture in the photos in this listing and also the nearly 100 additional photos that you can find at the flickr link at the end of my description. From day one of my ownership of this big, beautiful Buick it has been truly a joy to own. It performs just as it should and all the power options work flawlessly. The power windows, power seats, power top and radio all work wonderfully and even the speed sentinel that you can see pictured in the close-up of the speedometer still buzzes as GM intended it to. The big 350 V8 provides nice smooth power that seems perfect for this long and sleek top-down cruiser. What I've always loved about this generation of LeSabres is the fabulous grillwork that tapers so gracefully along just some of the most incredible body lines I've ever seen. I wasn't shopping at all for a convertible when I found this one, but those body lines caught my eye and captured my imagination, especially being fitted with the stunning Buick factory wheels. And the condition made it a must-have car. There are no blemishes or dents or dings and certainly no rust. Even the undercarriage is extremely nice, as you can see. It was and is a turn-key classic that I would readily drive anywhere without a worry.

During my ownership I did have a new top motor installed, not because the original wasn't working, but because I had to borrow the original to replace the top motor in my 1974 LeSabre convertible that this 1975 bumped out of my garage. As I said, when I purchased this car I wasn't at all in the market for another classic, but it just blew my away and required a little creative reorganizing of my small car collection. Cars are like women, the best ones never show up when you're ready for them. And on the morning my '74 was to go to its new home the top motor decided to fail -- you guys know how that goes! -- so pulling the top motor out of this car seemed the best way to fix things and make everybody happy. I couldn't send away my convertible to a new owner with a top that didn't go down! During the time I've owned this beautiful car I also had a new top professionally installed. The one that was on it when I purchased it wasn't too bad, but I'm pretty picky about these things and wanted it just right. You can see from the photos how great it turned out. Now it is in the same great condition as the rest of the interior. The one item I didn't bother to mess with was the A/C. It is all there and ready to go, but it doesn't blow cold. Being that this is a convertible and I only drove it with the top down on perfect days, A/C wasn't something I missed. But I've included a "Buy It Now" price in this auction with the understanding that if someone makes me an offer that I accept before the end of the auction and would like the A/C working, I'll get it taken care of, no problem.
For such a nice Buick convertible with all these power options I believe I've set my reserve very fairly, because I'd really like to see someone be able to enjoy cruising in it this summer. But I do reserve the right to end the auction early if someone uses the "Buy It Now" option or I sell the car locally beforehand. Good luck!

Facelifted Buick LaCrosse caught in China
Tue, 01 Jan 2013Back in September, General Motors promised nine new or refreshed models for its Buick and GMC brands within 12 months, and while we've already seen what the updated 2014 GMC Sierra will look like, we're now getting our first look at what appears to be the facelifted 2014 Buick LaCrosse. Judging by a set of spy shots posted on Autohome showing a Chinese-market model, the updated sedan is getting a pretty big makeover, including a completely redesigned interior and a refreshed exterior.
From the outside, all of the usual midcycle updates have been made to the LaCrosse, including new lights and fascias. The new front end features a larger, reshaped seven-sided grille, LED-trimmed headlights and Buick's signature portholes are now mounted on the side edges of the hood to be more visible. The rear view has similarly small yet refined changes such as the new decklid with a chrome brow that stretches the full width of the car, to a more squared-off rear fascia with exhaust outlets pushed out to the corners. From the single shot we can see, the LaCrosse's new rump looks very similar to the Hyundai Equus.
The second-generation LaCrosse helped reestablish Buick as a near-premium automaker with its interior quality, and the next model could very well up the stakes even more. The new cabin design ditches the wraparound wood trim on the instrument panel and door panels for a smoother, more contemporary look. While it's hard to make out all of the changes, we can instantly see that the center stack is now more upright with fewer buttons, but the biggest news might be the cabin technology the 2014 LaCrosse might offer. Checking out the shot of the center console, we see what looks to be a pad similar to the handwriting recognition technology used by Audi, which would make this a first for GM.
The importance of Angel Eyes, Ventiports and four round taillights
Sun, 01 Sep 2013Just the other day, we told you about how Lincoln isn't really a luxury brand, according to Ford's head design man, J Mays. His argument was that Lincoln lacked the unique DNA to differentiate it from the rest of the market, although the arrival of the MKZ is beginning to change that. Now, we have this video from Autoline Detroit, where Jim Hall, an analyst for 2953 Analytics who was quoted in yesterday's Lincoln story, explains the influence of certain styling cues and how they impact the brands.
Using BMW (Angel Eyes) and Buick (Ventiports) as examples for small, simple touches that serve to distinguish the brand's vehicles on the road, Hall then points out how changing trademark styling features, as Chevrolet has done on the new Corvette Stingray, can hurt the vehicle's public perception. Take a look at the full video below for an interesting dive into what these styling features mean to their individual brands.
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?
