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

Buick might be getting a logo makeover
Fri, 23 Nov 2012General Motors has finished off an extensive model overhaul for its Buick division, but along with its updated cars, the brand might also be getting a new logo. According to the Detroit Free Press, GM North America President Mark Reuss indicated that the Buick tri-shield logo could be getting a makeover, but offered no further information.
It is unlikely Buick will completely redesign or replace its current logo, but the article seems to indicate that it might return to color; although all chrome now, the logo used to feature red, white and blue shields. Head on over to the Detroit Free Press article to look at some past Buick logos including one from 1904.
Bob Seger's Detroit Made music video is an homage to the Motor City
Tue, 16 Sep 2014At this point, Bob Seger feels like the living embodiment of old-school rock 'n' roll. The Michigan native has been strumming out classic records like Night Moves for decades, and he just released a new single called Detroit Made. It sounds like a future staple of just about every classic car show within the next few years, and the video is dedicated to the Motor City, past and future.
Detroit Made is all about cruising in the city in a classic Buick Electra 225, perhaps better known as a "deuce and a quarter." It's straight-down-the-middle rock and could just as easily be from a decades-old Seger album as something new.
The video for the new single mixes shots of American classics cruising along Woodward Avenue with a contemporary look at the city. Sure, there are the well-known dilapidated buildings falling into rubble, but the people there aren't just letting the city die. Other parts show the attempts to clean things up and rebuild. Check out the video if you need a few minutes of old school rockin' in your life.
2014 Buick Regal GS AWD
Thu, 27 Feb 2014"This is just silly," I said as I laughed my way sideways around the icy track at Circuit ICAR, a racecourse, drag strip and kart track at the Montreal-Mirabel International Airport in Quebec. It wasn't the activity that had me cracking up, though. After all, winter driving experiences aren't uncommon in this business.
No, in this particular case, it was the car that had me chuckling. I wasn't in a mad hot hatch or a rally-derived rocket - I was in a Buick. The 2014 Regal GS, to be more precise. Somehow, despite its recent product renaissance (not to mention its distant - yet storied - history of performance models), I was having a hard time believing that this attractive, turbocharged, all-wheel-drive sedan sliding around the Great White North could possibly be wearing a Tri-Shield badge on its nose.
But it was, and slide about it did. While having access to a vehicle in this setting is fairly rare, what's rarer is the fact that I've had so much exposure to it. In Mr. Ewing's recent Volkswagen Golf R drive story, for instance, his ice capades were his first experience with the new model. In my case, though, I was lucky enough to first test the refreshed Regal GS for a week back in December before flying to Quebec to drive it on the snowy, icy, winding roads of Canada's most fiercely independent province and on the track at Mirabel.
