11,500 mile 1987 Buick Regal Turbo-T. The first registered owner had
kept the car until 1990 at which time the car had approximately 9,400 miles. It was then sold and stored
(occasionally driven) until I had purchased it in 2013 at 9,900 miles. Because the car had been stored for so long,
I immediately had all fluids and filters serviced (9,913 miles) as well as a general inspection. The history of
this car is short, as it remains completely original with the exception of new B.F. Goodrich radial tires which
were replaced solely for safe. The engine, transmission, rear axle, exhaust, etc. are 100% original as the day the
car was sold. There have been NO upgrades of ANY kind for ANY reason. As you can see in the photos, the original
exhaust is intact and the factory catalytic converter is still in place. The exterior color is Burgundy Metallic
(option code 79U) and the interior is the matching Dark Claret (option code 79I). The option group for this car is
quite rare as it has very few added production options. It features T-Tops in addition to the black exterior trim
package, but has manual (non-power) chrome outside rear view mirrors (option code DR3). Most will debate that
these are not correct for the car (especially for performance models), but the photo of the door-related broadcast
codes proves 100% correct for this vehicle's build. Other oddities are fixed (non-power) radio antenna, no rear
window defrost, manual (non-power) locks, manual (non-power) seats, no cruise control, no power trunk release, etc.
The interior is completely original with absolutely NO evident wear of any kind. When you open the doors, the scent
of the fabrics is un-tainted, vintage 1987. The T-Top bags are included and show no wear. I've included all
documentation that was presented to me with the car except for recent maintenance receipts (due to privacy) which
will also be included. Some examples pictured are the bill of sale, odometer statement, GM service contract, sales
delivery check list, operating manuals, dealership repair orders, etc. I've included many photos as testament to
the originality and history (or lack of) of this rare Buick

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
Small number of 2013 Buick Encore models recalled for loose steering wheel
Thu, 04 Apr 2013General Motors has issued a recall and a stop sale for the 2013 Buick Encore due to an issue that could result in the steering wheel falling off on certain models. In a letter to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, GM says that 144 Encores equipped with heated steering wheels could have been incorrectly retrofitted due to a parts shortage.
Needless to say, a loose or separated steering wheel would likely cause an accident if it happened while the vehicle was in motion. The recall doesn't go into effect until April 12, but concerned Encore owners can use the official recall notice (attached below) to contact GM.
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.
