| Hello there, Selling here a rather nice and unmolested/original 1996 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon. It is the Collector's Edition Model. 135k miles on a clear title. Runs Great and drives Very well, amazing and smooth power from the 260 HP LT-1 V-8. 25MPG Highway mileage is very possible with this awesome wagon. Seats up to 8 people with fold-out rear facing 2-person bench. Close to new, matching set of Nexen 15-inch Radial tires with the factory alloy wheels. Fully loaded with keyless entry (2 remotes and 2 keys), power windows, power door locks, cruise control, automatic climate control (COLD AC and HOT HEAT), heated and fully adjustable leather power seats, power rear vent windows, power antenna, power mirrors, auto adjust reaview mirror, glass Vista moon roof, and more... Numerous receipts available. Brand New Napa Gold Battery, Transmission was rebuilt at 69k miles, timing chain was redone in the last 5 years, Flowmaster 50 exhaust and high flow catalytic converters were also installed, great sound! Great turnkey daily driver in awesome running condition. It is a 21-year old vehicle and does have its flaws, i.e. left rear window track needs fixed/replaced, a dent in the hood behind the front grill, a little dent in the front right corner fender (that side's front corner lens is getting replaced as we speak) and a larger dent above the wheel well in the front right fender, some smaller surface rust spots here and there, tear in driver's seat leather, small tears in headliner, some wear on the passenger side "wood" foil, etc. Very rare car, especially in this condition. Clear, open and notarized Actual Mile Arizona Title in hand. Needs nothing to be a pretty great looking, head turning daily driver as, and has all the potential to have you make it stand out even more... Putting the feelers out at this time, accepting reasonable offers for this beauty, they are getting hard to find! Located in AZ 85635. | |

| No price, no photos, no phone number.... sounds like no sale.
Give us some info. Upload photos somewhere. A Craigslist link. Something.

| Would be nice to see some pics. Oh and just so you know, all the 1996 models were Collector's Editions. It was to celebrate the final year of production for these vehicles.
Good luck with the sale!

| "Very rare car, especially in this condition..." Nooooooo,I think you'll find,at least on this forum,many of us are very familiar with dented up Buick Roadmaster Estate Collectors Edition wagons. GLWS...and should you decide to keep her,welcome to the forum. Sigh... | |

| Please accept my apoligies for my dickish behavior...I read this post first,not your introduction. I was treating you like the pogues that join the forum to only sell their wagon,and then describe it to us as if we have never seen one before. Again,glws,and as the others noted,you need some pics. | |

| No worries Andebe. I am too new to post external links it looks like, so let me figure out a way. I am looking to sell, but am not sure of what a fair price range would be, hence me posting her in this forum... Also hoping it would go to someone who appreciates it as much as I do, as opposed to someone who would run it into the ground, which would be sad times... I definitely don't want to sell myself short but also don't want to be one of the people who thinks they are selling solid gold...
I do appreciate any input and am glad to have found like-minded "Boat"-Lovers in this forum!
Have a great one! | |

| Without photos, it is going to be difficult to give an opinion on price. I had been searching the market, nationwide for the most part, for a RMW for the past 3 or so months. If you can host them on something, share the link here, just use any random photo hosting site, or put up a CL add and put the price on the very high side, for now. That way the photos can be viewed and if you get a high dollar offer, you are out nothing. | |

| Graphmantrane1: Welcome to the forum. I'd suggest you lead with your strong suit on this car. If it has lived in the Arizona area for all it's life it has a rust free (possibly sandblasted shiny) frame and undercarriage. The concern would be baking of the interior plastic, weatherstrips, seals, trim, and gaskets. If it was garaged, so much the better. If it is rust free, with the exception of surface rust from unrepaired stone chips and such, then it is a cut above a car with 21 years of exposure to road salt. A person interested in restoring the car can always get the interior parts replaced with nice ones from a rustbucket sitting in a northeast pick and pull.
If you can fix those cosmetic items before you take the pictures, you'd have more interested buyers. People buy with their eyes (hence the many requests for pictures). | |

| My apologies on the lack of pictures, I had no idea it would not let me post or even link until the 20th. I will change my avatar to it for now at least, better than nothing. I do understand the sight unseen factor completely. Only other means to look at some pics is to search "1996 Buick Roadmaster" in the Los Angeles Craigslist, it will be the third one (Gold with woody trim) to come up (as of midnight, Saturday 9/17), I hope that helps. Thanks everyone. | |

| Love the matching set of (2) tires. As for being unmolested I didn't see badgers in it, but it could be an improvement. | |
