Our Take:
- Rarity and Power: The 1987 Buick Regal Grand National is iconic for being one of the last hurrahs of the muscle car era before the advent of the digital age. Its turbocharged 3.8-liter V6 engine produces a robust 245 horsepower, making it a formidable competitor against V8s of its time. The blacked-out aesthetic adds an air of mystery and authority, reminiscent of a special forces operative on a mission.
- Historical Significance: This model year holds particular significance as 1987 was the final production year of the Grand National, meaning it already had a "curtain-call" allure. The Grand Nationals were so fast they even took a stand-alone title in the "fastest American production car" column for quite a while in their heyday. So, what makes this particular model more noticeable is its position as one of the last symbols of automotive defiance against smog regulations and fuel efficiency mandates of the '80s.
- Design and Features: The Grand National's stealthy black exterior paired with the unique "Turbo 6" embroidered seats speaks volumes of its attention to detail. The removable T-top roof panels give it a sportier vibe, allowing drivers to transform the car according to their weather moods. It also features front-wheel disc brakes and power windows, showcasing that performance and comfort can indeed coexist without stepping on each other's toes.
- Collectability: It’s not just a car; it’s a statement piece for any vintage car collection. The clean Carfax and relatively low mileage for its age make it a gem among automotive enthusiasts who understand both the nostalgia and the mechanical value of the Grand National. With recent services amounting to over $12,000, this Grand National seems ready to pounce on any open road. Its collectability aspect is enhanced when you realize you're holding a piece of the '80s automotive spirit, making it both an investment and a joy to drive.
