1987 Grand National; 2-owners, 11,691 Original Miles, Showroom Condition!! on 2040-cars
Fredericksburg, Virginia, United States
Welcome
to the
1987 Buick Grand
National--11,691 Miles!!
The
Grand National, the only real GM muscle car of the ‘80s, is unique in a number
of important respects: · It is a 2-owner car with a reported (and documented) 11,691 miles since new!! ·
It is believed to
have been built on the last day Buick produced the GNs ·
The original
window sticker is included in the car’s documentation. Almost Showroom Quality! This GN is almost showroom fresh: great paint, like-new interior, very clean undercarriage. · Paint Like all Grand Nationals, our ’87 is finished in black; unlike some GNs, the paint is in excellent condition. The deep black finish gleams and has great depth. The body and underside of the car appear to be free of rust and corrosion, other than minor surface rust on the unpainted surfaces. Precisely what one would expect on such a low-mileage car that has been garaged. The underside still shows some of the original factory assembly markings. · Interior The seat upholstery black and gray cloth with the GN logo on the front seats and appears brand new. The black carpeting is likewise as new and is additionally protected by GN-logo floor mats. The door panels look new and the dash pad is in excellent condition. The headliner appears perfect as well. · Engine What made these cars a legend was the power plant: a 3.8 liter turbo- charged engine with an intercooler that generated 245 horse power. While that may seem tame by muscle car standards, these cars were able to go from the showroom floor to the track and turn 14-second quarter miles. It was rumored at the time that the GN was faster (and more powerful) than the Corvette but for marketing purposes that fact wasn’t advertised. The engine on this GN starts right up, runs smoothly and goes like a thoroughbred when the turbo kicks in. The engine bay is very clean and detailed.
The transmission is so reliable that Buick never offered the GN in anything other than an automatic. It is quick-shifting and reliable, operated via the shifter on the console. The rear axle is fitted with a 3.42 limited slip rear end, allowing the full torque of the engine to reach the pavement · Wheels/Tires/Brakes This car is equipped with factory 15” aluminum wheels with a new set of 215/65R15 Uniroyal Tiger Paw tires. The car is safely and quickly brought to a stop with Buick’s power front disc/rear drum braking system. · Comfort and Safety Systems This is a car that is as much as home going to church as it is going to the track. Seating for 5 with climate-control air conditioning makes it a pleasure on family trips, with plenty of trunk space for golf clubs, luggage or groceries. The driver’s seat has the optional 6-way power controls to adjust to almost every driving position. The original radio (that will also go with the car) has been replaced by a high-tech, in-dash Alpine GPS unit that incorporates AM/FM/Satellite radio as well as a CD player with iPod/iPhone and Bluetooth connectivity. Of course all of the gauges, lights and other safety features work properly. Power steering and power windows complete the package. A Perfect Example of Detroit’s ‘80s Muscle Car With only 11,691 odometer miles, this Grand National is truly a rare beast that quickly turns into a family pussycat. Designed to be a barn burner, the car immediately accommodates family usage with A/C and all the power options. But make no mistake, this GN is a lion-eater in disguise: once awakened by the competitive challenge, let the Mustangs, Camaros, ‘Vettes and Mopars beware because this Buick can take them all.

GM laying off 510 amidst slow Cadillac, small car sales
Wed, 12 Nov 2014General Motors is laying off about 510 workers from two factories beginning in January, and it could be months before the automaker needs some of that latent capacity to come back on line. A combination of poor sales and high dealer inventories are prompting the cutbacks, according to Automotive News.
The largest changes come at GM's Lansing Grand River plant, where the Cadillac ATS and CTS are made. An entire shift of about 350 workers is being laid off, but the automaker hopes to find positions for some of them at other nearby factories. The decision leaves just a single shift building vehicles there. According to Automotive News, the move is partially spurred by Johan de Nysschen's plan to make Cadillac a more exclusive brand.
The lost shift will likely return for production of the next-generation Chevrolet Camaro at the plant, according to the report, but GM isn't saying when that will be. A previous announcement from the Canadian Auto Workers union indicated that the Oshawa, Ontario, factory would lose the coupe in late 2015 or early 2016.
Buick Encore takes a hit of Mokka to tackle Dakar
Wed, 03 Sep 2014There are many vehicles we'd consider taking racing. Even on a cross-country rally as punishing as the Dakar. But a Buick Encore? That's not one that would enter our motorsports-based consciousness. Yet it's basically what General Motors is entering in the South American rally raid this year, and you're looking at it.
Unveiled at the Moscow Motor Show, this rally machine is based on (or at least billed as) an Opel Mokka - the name that GM's European brand applies to the vehicle Americans know as the Encore, Buick's subcompact crossover. Only it's obviously been extensively modified. It's got a ten-inch raised suspension, a 137-gallon fuel tank, carbon-fiber bodywork and... hold on, we're sure we're missing something here. Oh, right: a 6.2-liter V8 kicking out 340 horsepower and 487 pound-feet of torque to all four wheels through a six-speed sequential gearbox.
In other words, this is not the same Encore (or Mokka) you can pick up at your local Buick, Opel or Vauxhall dealership. It's not even close. It's not even recognizable as such, really. It was unveiled alongside a more sedate Opel Mokka Moscow Edition and a slew of other local debuts for the Opel brand that you can read more about in the (translated and original) Russian press release below.
Buick Adam a reality after all... but only in China
Mon, 03 Mar 2014General Motors may have parred down its brand portfolio, but it still has more under its umbrella than most. That's why, while a company like Ford might market the same vehicle under its own name in markets around the world, GM uses different brands in different markets. But no two are aligned quite as closely as Opel in Europe and Buick in the United States and China.
What we know here as the Buick Regal is sold overseas as the Opel Insignia. Our Encore is their Mokka. Verano? Astra sedan. But one thing we don't get here is the Opel Adam. The diminutive city car is GM's take on the Mini Cooper, Fiat 500, Citroën DS3 et al. Launched at the 2012 Paris Motor Show, the Opel Adam is named after the company's founder (like an ironic thumbing of the nose to the Ferrari Enzo). But while it's sold, like most Opels, in the UK as a Vauxhall, the prospect of it porting over to Buick seems slim to none. Right?
Sorta. While the Adam isn't likely to come Stateside, the latest reports (as yet unconfirmed by GM) suggest that The General is planning to sell the Adam in China where the Buick brand is also a strong seller. Local production could ensue, with prices targeting the Fiat 500 and engines - according to CarNewsChina.com - to include inline-fours displacing 1.2 and 1.4 liters with 69 and 100 horsepower, respectively.
