For Sale: 1987 Buick Grand National in Lutz, Florida

Vehicle Description

When it comes to the best muscle cars of the 1980s, few cars can compare to a car like this 1987 Buick Grand National. Designed as a high-performance variant of the Buick Regal, this two-owner turbocharged terror has just 98,271 actual miles on its odometer. With its all-black exterior, distinctive rear spoiler, and sculpted hood, this 1987 model represents the final year for this iconic modern muscle car.

Inside this well-preserved Buick G-Body, we find a medium dark grey crushed velour interior that, while far from lavish, provides a surprising amount of comfort thanks to its plush bucket seats and soft-padded door panels. A simple three-spoke, power-assisted steering wheel sits ahead of what feels like a very underestimating 85 mph speedometer. Power seats, locks, and windows, along with air conditioning and a tilt wheel provide enough amenities to be comfortable enough to enjoy the rumble of the exhaust even on the longest road trips.

Under the hood sits an incredibly powerful 3.8-liter turbocharged V-6 engine. With its stout iron block and heads, sequential fuel injection, and single Garrett T3 turbocharger, from the factory, the Grand National's engine was severely underrated at 245 horsepower and 355 pound-feet of torque. That power was then funneled through a TH200-4R four-speed automatic transmission before heading out to the 3.42-geared rear end, providing plenty of punch off the line without sacrificing too much highway civility.
