For Sale: 1987 Buick Grand National / Turbo-T with 5,888 ACTUAL MILES! This is not a typo.

For those of you not familiar with the 1987 Turbo-T. This is the exact same car as the famous 1987 Buick Grand National, minus the WE2 appearance package' (black paint, grey seats). This means you get a white, sleeper of a car with the same insane engine, rear end, transmission, sport steering and suspension of the Grand National. It's just white and even faster since it weighsa bit lighter, more on that below.

This is your chance to own one of GM'sV6 Turbo legends if you missed the chance in 1987. This car is by all accounts brand new, a time capsule of automotive history. Everyone that has ever had the opportunity to stick their head inside this car remarks how, with 5,888 miles still smells new inside the cabin. This is Buicks finest creation of the '80s. A 6 cylinder car capable of 25mpg and 500hp with incredible street manners. It's got the best of all the worlds. Unreal acceleration, great gas mileage, quiet exhaust, smooth ride, Concert II Sound upgrade from the factory, digital dash upgrade from the factory and lots of other creature comforts! Best of all, this car is actually faster than the Grand National because it weighs less! Factory aluminum bumper inserts, factory aluminum wheels give this car a better power to weight ratio over the Grand National.

This 1987 White Turbo-Thas been stored for the last 18 years indoors and covered from the sun or any light.It has 5,888 actual miles reading on the clock. The speedo has never been monkied with and a carfax will reveal the last odometer reading of 4,600 miles when I titled the car in my name about 5 years ago.That is right, I've only put about 1,200 miles on this car before realizing it should be stored and preserved for as long as possible. I drove it to a few car shows, like the 2004 Daytona Turkey Rod Run where I almost lost my voice answering questions about the car all day. I am the second owner, title is clear in my name and here in my possession. No liens or funny stuff. I am not a high priced dealership, nor am I an investment muscle car dealer selling overpriced cars. I ama private seller in Orlando Florida that is getting married and needs to sell one of his extra cars, so here is your chance to get a great deal. I am very knowledgeable when it comes to the Turbo Buicks and Grand National cars so if you have any questions not addressed here in the auction please ask before bidding!

The Good:

• This car is near perfect condition.
• THERE IS NO RUST -> ANYWHERE. Please don't send me an email asking if the car has rust. I'll assume you didn't read this auction. THERE IS NO RUST!
• THIS CAR HAS NO T-TOPS! You don't want T-tops on an 80's GM vehicle! Let's just say they hadn't perfected the process back then!
• Windshield, windows and glass are in mint condition. No scratches, no window tint to pull off.
• Paint is all original and in mint condition!
• Chrome is in pristine condition!
• I WILL PAY YOU $100 FOR EVERY DOOR DING YOU FIND ON THE CAR! THERE ARE NONE AND THE CAR IS THAT STRAIGHT!
• The weather stripping is in perfect condition.
• The tires are brand new with about 1,000 miles on them!
• The interior is in mint condition. The maroon interior is like no other you have seen. Since the car has been stored inside with a car cover on it for the past 18 years, the interior is a sparkly deep maroon color instead of the faded pink color so often seen.
• The factory wheels still have the factory clear coat and look amazing! You'll never see a set of factory 'T' wheels like this anywhere. They actually have a rainbow sheen to them which is lost on high mileage cars due to excessive car washes and wheel cleaner/etchers.
• The underside of the car has a factory or dealer applied undercoating. There isn't a spot of rust and the undercoating is in perfect condition! The underside of the car is completely black and looks brand new!
• Brand New AC Delco battery. Correct factory size and amperage for the Buick Grand National. Just a few weeks old!
• Battery Tender included with the car!
• Digital Dash option! The analog dash that came standard in the Buick left a lot to be desired. This digital dash is my favorite and I even have it in my daily driver Grand National.
• Includes owners manual, original paperwork and repo WINDOW STICKER
• Includes many magazines from 1987 featuring GM's turbo cars like the 1989 Turbo Trans Am
• Still has original parts installed like brake pads, spark plug wires,serpentine belt, remember, this carhasn't even reached the mileage for it's first scheduled tuneup!

The Bad:

• The plastic front dash speaker cover has a crack around one of the screw holes. This is common with these cars. Use Buy-It-Now and I'll throw in a NOS dash speaker cover. This is a 10 minute fix.
• The head liner is not sagging but if you touch it you'll leave an indentation of your finger in the foam. Probably nothing wrong with it but I'd just rather see a new one installed. If you Use the Buy-It-Now option I'll throw in a brand new head liner.
• Front bumper fillers cracked, another very common issue with these cars. Use the Buy-It-Now option to buy this vehicle and I'll throw in a set of brand new NOS front GM bumper fillers. They are new, from the dealer and in the original boxes.
• The original tires are gone. They were dry rotted, cracked, square and unusable.

I incorrectly listed the car as having the Concert Sound upgrade (extra speakers). I can't delete that verbage since the auction now has bids on it, but just wanted to make note of that here. There is a picture of the option code sticker in the zip file containing all the pictures of the cars.
