With the value of the turbo Buicks skyrocketing lately, a car like this 1987 Buick Grand National that's so well presented and so affordably priced is the stealthy black machine that you know is also a red-hot commodity.
You already know the legend. General Motors had a short run of Buick coupes that looked mean and had the performance to back it all up. Its Regal siblings have a great creased appearance that instantly conveys a feeling of premium. But where they liked to use chrome to make a statement, this one reserves the brightwork only for the wheels. That sends a very different message. The blacked-out trim, the bulging hood, and the subtle ducktail spoiler all give this car a look that demands respect. And the high gloss of this paint looks great no matter if its radiating in the Sunday sunshine or the midnight moonlight.
The correct black and gray bucket seats up front do a terrific job of balancing out the Buick's comfortable image with extra bolstering for the Grand National's added performance. Plus, the fresh condition of these seats, door panels, and headliner lets you know there has been a nice investment in here. As a true high-end Buick, this comes loaded with all the best features. It includes a power windows, power locks, cruise control, and power steering. Plus, you've got great upgrades like an AM/FM/CD stereo and the air conditioning is blowing cold with modern R134a.
What really makes this one so special is what's under the hood. The 3.8-liter fuel-injected V6 turbo motor turned this Buick into a Corvette contender. And because the powerplant is so essential, this one has received some big investments recently. This includes a rebuilt Garret turbo, as well as new motors mounts, ignition, coil, and tie rod ends. Plus, features like front disc brakes, sway bars front & rear, and a limited slip rear end make sure this handles like a proper turbocharged sports machine should. But remember, the four-speed automatic transmission is not only there for quick shifting action but also for overdrive comfort. So you'll get just as much pleasure out of this one chewing up the asphalt as you will cruising under the midnight neon.
Complete with full owner's manual packet and maintenance records, you're looking at one of the most desirable machines from the 1980s. And you already know the price doesn't get any better for a complete and maintained Grand Nationals. So this is a case of call us today, or you might regret it tomorrow!
