Very Rare Buick Diesel Park Avenue. GM only put the 4.3 V6 Diesel in the Front Wheel Drive Park Avenue's one year - 1985. Unlike the early 350 V8s that had issues with the head bolts the V6 is actually a very good engine when serviced properly as evidenced by the high but orginal miles of this unit. The top end was redone , injection pump serviced, and transmission rebuilt in the last 30,000 miles. It starts right up and runs great. Transmission shifts are tight. If your state has inspection it will need new front brakes and some work to the emergency brake cables. Interior is in very good condtion. Body is in fair condition - take note of surface rust starting at the door edges and slight damage on left front fender. The car is sold as-is. I ran the RWD version in an Oldsmobile Cutlass years ago and have been very happy with this engine - plus it gets great MPG. Rated around 26 city 42 Highway in this model. I picked this one up about a year ago and planned to start driving it when my daughter got her license and took over my other car - but in the meantime I found this engine in an Olds 98 which is the only reason I am selling this one. (I more of an Oldsmobile guy). Low Reserve as I could keep it as a parts car but I would rather see it go to someone who is going to keep it on the road. Buyer is responsible for any shipping costs. Email any questions you might have and thanks for looking.

Opel Insignia OPC getting facelift. Will the Buick Regal GS see it, too?
Tue, 07 Aug 2012We've seen spy shots of the base Opel Insignia wearing facelifted front and rear ends, and now it appears that the more potent OPC version will be benefitting from a nip/tuck, as well.
The front bumper has been redesigned, incorporating new air intakes - toned-down versions of the model's signature fangs - as well as a new grille. Out back, there will be minimal changes to the overall fascia, most likely stuff like slightly redesigned taillamps, and inside, these spy shots show a larger navigation/infotainment screen sitting atop the center console.
This is all well and good for the Insignia, but we're wondering how these changes will impact North America's Buick Regal GS. No, it may not share the same powertrain punch as the Euro-spec OPC, but visually, the cars are nearly identical. When questioned about possible changes for the GS, a Buick spokesperson told us that the automaker "can't comment" on any changes at this point. Even so, we wouldn't be surprised if some small changes come our way in the next year or so.
J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?
You can find details on those and more findings in the press release below.
Buick Riviera Concept hits the floor in Shanghai
Sat, 20 Apr 2013Here we have a concept in the true sense of the term. The Buick Riviera you see here - the name of which was last used in production back in 1999 - is said to preview Buick's future styling direction, which means we should expect to see more flowing body shapes to go along with new versions of the marque's classic waterfall grille design. Oh, and we don't believe there's a single porthole in sight.
Powered by Buick's so-called dual-mode wireless plug-in hybrid electric vehicle propulsion system (we'll stick with the W-PHEV acronym) that allows the car to be charged wirelessly just by driving atop a special charging mat on the ground, the car's powertrain is just as futuristic as its exterior shape.
Other high-tech bits include holographic projections on the windshield showing the driver what's around him, with input coming from 10 high-res cameras and 18 micro high-precision sensors. The car also sports 4G wireless connectivity so that its occupants are always connected.
