Not bad but the ratty interior puts me off - replacing a bunch of leather and worn out foam could get expensive. Hold out for a better example or hold out for a better discount.

I don't need Barrett-Jackson anymore - now that I've got the Velocity channel I'm on whatever auction that is that they show 18 hours a day.
Needs more hood.
Looks good. Not good enough to make me want to trade our '07 in for a bigger and longer payment - it's no Fusion - but it fixes the bland problem the current generation currently has.
I don't know about other makes but I've never come across anything like the 2000-2005 Buick LeSabre and its windows. The factory ones break, the OEM replacements break, the "improved" aftermarket ones break. I don't recall any power windowed car I've been around having any kind of problems before this one.
I spent so much of my childhood building Lego cars and motorcycles*. I like the big, fat ~3" tires, those were my favorite - big enough to handle road surface imperfections at the scale of Lego vehicles and you could make axles that didn't have too much friction so with their good amount of mass they would roll really…
It seems like such a simple thing - GM had only been doing power windows for what, like 60 years? How did they screw it up so bad?
I've got a shelf full of trashed window regulators for our old LeSabre - the thick and beefy plastic gears are all fine but the plastic pulleys and guides and the whatever you call that piece that the cables attach to that slides on the rail - those things are made out of some sort of plastic with all the strength and…
Why do people think this is a good idea? Who drives these cars? Who do they think they're impressing?
It's been said before but...
I love my mobile devices but you can't roll the window down on a smartphone and cruise around with the sun and wind caressing your face while a purring engine provides the soundtrack on a perfect day like today. It was hard to come back from lunch - I could've just kept driving forever.
4.6 or 5.0; 2, 3 or 4 valves - it's hard to beat the sound of a V8 Mustang at full tilt.
I like how MG managed to make a mid-engined sports car look like a dumpy FWD poseur.
Our Buick LeSabre's was under the back seat cushion. Your's is worse though.
Probably nothing. That's not a big enough jump to severely impact our budget.
Cool. I keep going back and forth on my long range plans. Mine's staying my daily driver for the forseeable future though and any modifications from this point on are about making it more enjoyable as a daily driver so the idea of hacking up wiring harnesses in a perfectly good car makes me a little queasy as I think…
Those charcoal and grey Cobra seats are my favorite - they just look gorgeous. If I could've found some reasonable I would've put them in my '96 GT but I ended up with some grey leather '07 GT seats instead. The improvement over the dowdy looking stock SN95 (and Fox too) seats is startling.
Probably a good price if you were to price it out but nobody buys hybrid mashups based on what you spent to build it - the whole is always less than the sum of the parts in those cases.
I'm not sure how to put it in to words but this car is awesome.
