1985 Buick Regal 87k Miles, Time Capsule Survivor, No Reserve, Like Monte Carlo on 2040-cars
Scotts Valley, California, United States
This is a true 2nd owner 1985 Buick Regal in great original condition. Every car has a story, this one was purchased new at Mistlin Buick in Modesto California as a surprise by Mr.Wheeler for his beloved wife Mrs Wheeler. This car was special ordered, power steering, power disc brakes, power windows, ice cold air conditioning, alloy wheels, working AM-FM cassette, and the list goes on. This Buick was her love, she never let anyone drive the car besides her husband. this car is all original and in near excellent condition. It has been sitting in a climate controlled garage since new hence the stunning condition. Its an awesome garage find. Since in our possession we went through the entire vehicle to insure reliability in preparation for being a reliable daily driver, so everything was rebuilt and or replaced to insure reliability. Even if it didn't need replacing, we replaced it as we wanted it as close to mechanically perfect as possible.With the prices of Grand Nationals skyrocketing, these are becoming more sought after. This is an Excellent Blue Chip investment. Its an absolute pleasure to drive and gets tons of looks, thumbs up, and compliments everywhere we go. The car has only 87k original miles no wrecks or funny stories. It just passed California Emissions better than a new car as per the smog technicians statement. The spare tire has never been on the car, the trunk is mint, as I was told nobody ever sat in the back seat as Mrs.Wheeler didn't have any kids or grandkids of her own.This Buick is a real attention getter and a blast from the past thats only gong up in value, its an excellent blue chip investment. When ordered new, it was special ordered with the alloy wheels which really sets the car apart from others. We invested over $4000 including a rebuilt transmission, all new tune up, all hoses, belts, fuel pump, rear main seal, oil pan gasket, rebuilt ice cold air conditioning and nice warm heater, it even has the original windshield! all work was performed by a certified retired Buick technition and the transmission and converter were just professionally rebuilt less than 1500 miles ago with a warranty. All the work performed to the car was to insure the car was in proper working order. As we never planned to sell. It needs rear bumper fillers which is easy and common fix which is just cosmetic. The paint is not perfect but has a nice patina to it. The dash, original OEM GM floor mats are near perfect as well. Please understand this is a original unrestored almost 30 year old classic. Its currently registered and ready to enjoy. Never been modified, lowered, etc.You will be HARD PRESSED to find a nicer one than this one. NO RESERVE, high bidder wins! Thanks and good luck. World wide shipping is available. Look forward to assisting the new buyers in a smooth transaction. We have a Clear California title and can assist with overseas buyers. Thanks and good luck. Please note: the mileage will increase as I'm driving the car daily, thanks.

Buick version of Equinox/Terrain CUV spied testing... with autonomous gear?
Wed, 12 Jun 2013Let's get the most pressing bits of this story out of the way right off the bat: What we see here appears to be a new compact crossover from Buick. According to the spy photographer, this machine may be a little bit smaller on the outside than the current Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain 'utes, which makes sense since recent rumors suggest GM's small crossovers will migrate to a new platform that will mark a convergence between the automaker's Delta (Chevy Cruze, Buick Verano) and Theta (Equinox, Terrain) platforms. This Buick would likely use this new D2UX platform.
We've been expecting Buick to unleash a crossover to slot between the very small Encore and the very large Enclave, and various rumors have indicated that the model may be known as either the Anthem or Envision. It's worth mentioning that Buick had planned, back in 2009, to release a vehicle in the compact CUV market, but abandoned those plans after a particularly poor reception.
And now for something completely different... Take another look at the spy shots above, and pay special attention to the cylindrical device mounted to the vehicle's roof. We can't say for sure what it is, but our spy photographer opines that it looks quite a bit like the 360-degree Lidar camera equipment used by Google for its autonomous cars. Is General Motors working with Google on autonomous car technology? We don't know, but you can definitely consider us intrigued.
Buick mulling more powerful Encore; diesel too
Mon, 21 Oct 2013Looking to set itself apart in the mid-luxury segment, Buick is looking to introduce a diesel engine somewhere in its US lineup. And according to Edmunds, the two best chances of a diesel Buick rest with the Encore and Verano.
In both our First Drive and Review of the 2013 Encore, our chief complaint about the compact crossover was the the lack of power from the 138-horsepower turbo engine. Edmunds says that the recently introduced 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine (with both gas and diesel variants) from the Encore's overseas cousin, the Opel Mokka, could make its way into the Encore delivering the much-needed boost in power.
Then there's the Verano. As a close relative to the Chevy Cruze, which just added a diesel engine for 2014, the article speculates that a Verano Diesel might actually be the more "probably candidate" if and when Buick decides to add a diesel model to its portfolio. Either way, offering such an engine in one of its products could be a great way for Buick to differentiate itself from Cadillac and possibly even attract buyers from Volkswagen, Audi and Mercedes-Benz looking for a luxurious, fuel-efficient vehicle.
Consumer Reports says infotainment systems 'growing first-year reliability plague'
Mon, 27 Oct 2014The Consumer Reports Annual Auto Reliability Survey (right) is out, and the top two spots look much the same as last year's list with Lexus and Toyota in first and second place, respectively. However, there are some major shakeups for 2014, with Acura plunging eight spots from third in 2013 to 11th this year, and Mazda replaces it on the lowest step of the podium. Honda and Audi round out the top five. This year's list includes six Japanese brands in the top 10, two Europeans, one America and one Korean.
Acura isn't the only one taking a tumble, though. Infiniti is the biggest loser this year by dropping 14 spots to 20th place. Other big losses come from Mercedes-Benz with an 11-place fall to 24th, and GMC, which declines 10 positions to 19th.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it's not traditional mechanical bugs hauling down these automaker's reliability scores. Instead, pesky problems with infotainment systems are taking a series toll on the rankings. According to Consumer Reports, complaints about "in-car electronics" were the most grumbled about element in new cars. Problem areas included things like unresponsive touchscreens, issues pairing phones and multi-use controllers that refused to work right.
