PLEASE read all details good and bad on this car.
We have owned for just over 3 years. We keep pretty good care of it doing basic maintenance when due. The motor and tranny run strong, never had any issues. Car drives AWESOME In the winter. I went through some major snow storms with this car. Was in Sasakachwan Canada with it in Dec 2010 and it was COLD...while everyone elce was plugged in, I could not as does not have block heater, car started RIGHT UP the next morning at -30 below. Very impressed with it. Has 90% highway miles on it, yes miles are high but runs great......is still our daily work driver but we are buying prperty which needs a 4x4 to get to so the car needs to be sold to buy a 4x4.
It needs a tune up here soon. I will include that in this auction upon completion of the sale before you pick it up. Will need some new rubber soon. The fender on passanger side got damaged by a friend, whom replaced it but did not set it in pefect so the door would rub againts it when opened...did this for some time and did some more damage, not major. It's hard to tell in a picture but it is not creased, just pushed in and easy to straighten back out. This is why we are selling cheap and there is a NR on this car. I am sure it is an easy fix and does not make the car look bad. Also needs a little muffler work where sits into cataletic converter...came loose. We can also have that done at the end of the sale and include in the final sale.
Also the previous owner had put in some sort of stero system, all the wires are still in tack for this. Car is CLEAN and has never been smoked in. The leather is good shape, no chips or cracks in any of the windows. Carpet is good and clean. Radio works so does CD player and tape deck. We bought a brand new gas pump for it thinking it was going bad, but then that is when the resister went and we replaced that and is fine. Will include the new pump if ever it is needed.

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.
Buick shows US dealers 2016 Cascada convertible
Wed, 20 Aug 2014The affordable four-seat convertible has become a largely forgotten genre in the States, especially with the death of the Chrysler 200 Convertible. Of course, there are still premium options from Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz - not to mention more overtly performance-oriented droptop pony cars from Chevrolet and Ford - but if you want an affordable cruiser, you're kind of out of luck. That may be about to change, however, with renewed rumors of the Opel Cascada (pictured above) making it across the Atlantic wearing a Buick badge.
According to GM Inside News, Buick showed off the Cascada to US dealers last week, with renewed word that the company plans to bring it over from Europe for the 2016 model year. The US version will reportedly be practically identical to its German cousin in terms of styling, but the powertrain underneath is less certain. According to GMI, it may use the 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that is available in Europe with either 168 horsepower or 197 hp.
The Cascada rides on GM's Delta II platform, which also underpins the Verano, and the latest rumor certainly provides even more evidence that the convertible is probably on the way. Speculation about the droptop started when GM CEO Dan Akerson said last year that the car was on his wish list to bring over. Then, the US trademark on the name was reserved earlier this year, and the release was speculated for sometime in early 2016.
2013 Buick Verano Turbo
Thu, 03 Jan 2013Not Luxury. Not Sport. Not Buick. Not Bad.
Those of you who still think of the Buick Verano as some sort of callously badge-engineered, gussied up version of the Chevrolet Cruze ("Why would anyone spend that much money on Buick's Cruze?" you may have been heard to mutter) have got the wrong idea. Entirely. Even in its most modest form, the Verano turns out to be a sedan that is feature-rich, insulated from wind and road noise in proper luxury car fashion, pretty good to drive and not bad to look at in the new school of high-nosed pedestrian-impact-regulated fashion. In a less modest form then, one that attaches the word "Turbo" to the moniker and plops a force-fed 2.0-liter four-cylinder under the hood, the Verano is downright interesting.
Of course, "interesting" is rarely a descriptor that fills one with lust - and so it goes with this example. There are two competing forces within this near-premium subcompact sedan, and the balance struck between them must resonate with any potential customer before the Verano Turbo can become a serious purchase consideration.
