Thank you for checking out my classic car, the Buick Limited Edition! I purchased this vehicle new nearly 35 years ago and have driven it on occasion since. It is garage-stored and pampered. The complete repair record is available, although the car has been basically problem-free over the years. It has a clean, well maintained interior and has also been entirely smoke-free.
Seats are crushed velour upholstery. The passenger seat (which reclines) and rear seats have been seldom used so both have like-new upholstery. No rips, stains, or holes.
The car was undercoated with frequent touch-up applications for minimal surface rust, although there is rear frame rust. Doors and trunk lid have some small paint chips. The lower trim behind the front tires has some small dents from the mechanic's hoist. There is a passenger-side windshield crack. Dash is in great shape, no cracks or rips. The hood has lost its pneumatic lift. The car has a spare tire and jack. It hasn't been driven since the brakes went out last year. It has one mismatched hubcap, a loose tailpipe, a small hole in the trunk's tire well the size of a half-dollar, and broken plastic edging on the seat belt clip. It also needs a taillight cover, re-tacking of the ceiling upholstery, and perhaps front springs. One tire is showing wear. Front shocks were installed new prior to storage and I have a replacement bumper for the rear ready to go.
The car has been stored the past 1 1/2 years. Prior to that it ran and performed well on the road with a great engine by GM, said to be perhaps the best they ever built. The interior and exterior are both in excellent condition, especially considering the vehicle's age. It would make a classic parade and show vehicle, or it has many top-notch items as a parts car.
I am happy to answer any and all questions. If you would like more pictures, I can email them to you. I look forward to talking with you.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015
Mon, 25 Feb 2013General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
Buick Verano to go turbo-only for 2014?
Sat, 22 Dec 2012If VIN tags recently posted online prove accurate, the 2014 Buick Verano may be getting a new base engine. Presently the Verano makes use of GM's 2.4-liter Ecotec four-cylinder engine in non-turbo trim; 2014 documentation appears to indicate that GM's entry-level luxury compact will instead feature a 1.6-liter turbocharged mill.
If this is the same engine seen in Europe, GM Inside News suggests it may offer 192 horsepower and 170 pound-feet of torque - useful improvements over the larger naturally aspirated mill's 180 hp and 171 lb-ft. More importantly, the downsized engine would likely improve on the Verano's current fuel mileage estimates of 21 city and 31 highway.
We like the Verano in both of its current iterations, but the 1.6 turbo engine sounds like a worthwhile upgrade if this reports turns out to be true. Plus, if more performance is your bag, baby, there's always the Verano's optional 2.0 turbo engine with an impressive 250 horsepower and 260 lb-ft from just 2.0 liters of displacement.
GM delivers best Q3 sales since 1980, 2.4M vehicles sold
Wed, 15 Oct 2014People are a weird sort. Even after registering over 70 recalls through the first three-quarters of 2014, General Motors saw its best Q3 results since Jimmy Carter was in the White House, registering over 2.4 million global sales between June and September on the back of strong results in the US and China.
US sales were marshaled by good results for GM's pickups, the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, which bumped the manufacturer's truck market share to 35.6 percent, up nearly three points from Q1 2014. Buick has seen healthy growth as well, with the Encore dominating its segment for the sixth month running.
It was China, though, that really bolstered GM's sales, as the company's efforts to top last year's record-setting 3.16 million units continued apace. Small SUV sales saw massive growth, with Encore, Chevrolet Trax and Captiva figures jumping 90 percent in Q3. Brand-wise, Chevrolet, Cadillac and Buick all saw sales gains in the PRC, with each recording double-digit year-over-year jumps. Cadillac sales alone were up 63 percent compared to the first nine months of 2013.
