A very nice 2 owner Buick Riviera. Bought new in NM it has never left the state which means NO RUST. In 1983 Buick celebrated its' 20th anniversary with the "XX Anniversary model". Only 502 hardtops badged as “XX Anniversary Edition” models, where produced. These cars got special REAL!! NOT HUB CAPS!! wire wheels, 24K gold-plated badging, and some serious upgrades like hand-made 24 ounce wool carpeting, English walnut wood veneer plates, and a wood steering wheel. Mechanically, these cars had the 4.1-liter V-6 (or optional 5.0-liter V-8 which this car has which makes it even rarer), four-wheel disc brakes, and the Gran Touring suspension .
This car is In very good condition , mileage indicated is 53088. The car fax report shows that the mileage was 30,050 in October of 1996 then in October of 1998 it was 139,147, an obvious reporting error . I'm sure the cars' mileage is 53088 because of the great overall condition of the interior and exterior. starts and drives very well, all the glass is good, has the padded half top, tires, brakes etc are all good. Suede leather seats, the cruise control was disconnected before I got the car so I dont know if this was done due to a broken cable ( most likely) or the head control. No electrical or mechanical problems , power everything. the seats have power lumbar bags and are power , power windows all work ok, ac works although not as cold as I would like it, power locks, am/fm cassette plays fine., tilt steering wheel. A rock or something hit the front bumper just below the headlights on the passenger side and caused a circular crack about the size of a baseball in the plastic facia but the rest of the body is fine with no dents or damage. Fly in, drive it home.
Advertising locally so I reserve the right to end this auction at any time. questions? call or text dean 505-414-0617 also looking for straight acroos trade, make offer, all I can say is "no".

2014 Buick LaCrosse
Wed, 24 Jul 2013A Nice, New Buick Aims For Middle Of The Road
Any time someone describes some portion of a car or a driving experience as being "nice," I want to either A) throttle them or B) run as fast and as far as I can from that vehicle. "Nice" is among the most insidious words in the English language - at best it's vague, and at worst, it conveys the exact opposite of its literal meaning. Yet it seems to be used with damnable frequency when it comes to verbally illustrating vehicles. "It looks really nice," or "These seats feel nice," or, heaven forefend, "It's got a nice ride," are all windy signifiers of absolutely nothing resembling a concrete opinion. "Nice" is the adjectival equivalent of meekly smiling and nodding your head.
Of course, I'm as guilty as the next person of having thrown English's least powerful descriptor around. There's even a chance that, rant aside, you'll catch me making nice in reviews to come. That's fine, but you should know that when you stumble upon such usage, past or future, that you've found a sentence in which I'm simply applying a bare minimum of effort to the task.
2014 Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse recalled over brake mix-up
Thu, 08 May 2014The recall madness over at General Motors isn't letting up anytime soon, as evidenced by this latest call-back of 8,208 Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans. For those keeping track, this is the fifth recall that GM has announced in the past two weeks, not to mention the massive ignition-switch issue from earlier this year.
GM issued a statement saying these sedans are being recalled due to "possible reduced braking performance," according to Automotive News. The problem? Rear brake rotors may have accidentally been installed in the front brake assembly. And since both cars use more robust braking systems up front than out back, braking power could be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.
Automotive News reports that, of the over 8,000 cars being recalled, about 1,700 are currently in the hands of customers, while the others are still in dealer inventory. GM is unaware of any crashes or injuries related to this problem. All of the affected vehicles are from the 2014 model year.
2013 Buick Encore nets strong IIHS, NHTSA safety scores
Wed, 05 Jun 2013After being crushed from every which way and rolled over like a labrador, the 2013 Buick Encore has been named a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. To earn the accolade, a vehicle must achieve the highest rating of "Good" in each of the institute's four main crash tests: Front Moderate Overlap, Side, Rollover and Rear. The Encore aced those four tests with "Good" ratings, but missed out on the coveted Top Safety Pick+ designation by receiving a Poor rating in the institute's new Front Small Overlap test. To be named a Top Safety Pick+, the Encore would need to score at least an "Acceptable" rating in the new test, as well as "Good" in all four original crash tests.
Despite the miss, the Encore joins the Enclave, LaCrosse, Verano and Regal as Top Safety Picks all. If you count only the Encore with all-wheel drive, then all five Buicks have also earned five-star overall ratings from the National Highway Traffic Safety Adminstration, making Buick one of the few manufacturers to offer a full lineup with high scores from both safety rating organizations.
The front-wheel-drive Encore, despite performing equally as well as the all-wheel-drive version in NHTSA's crash tests, only earned four stars overall. As far as we can tell, the discrepancy between the two is because some safety equipment, like Forward Collision Warning and Lane Departure Assist, are optional features on the FWD Encore and standard on the AWD model.
