consider the source, Artie!
Sounds like another ricer, that can't find something else to bitch about.
Possibly, a better expenditure of his time, would be a return to 5th grade english class!

Looks pretty yellow to me ... picture is of STOCK 1987 seat.



Here's a 1984 GN with the Lear Siegler seats ... the LeSabre GN had an all red power six (from the Lesabre Ttype web site).

Hello Ken, Happy Thanksgiving

GM Does things the way they want, not the way they should be done.

I have and 87 GN, I know what it looks like,

THe lear seigler seat are quite Ok, but the emblen should be orange instead of yellow and the seat should be 100 percent leather , not a two fabric Bastard.

THE GN SEAT ARE 100 percent LOW END PLAIN JANE CRUD AND AS QUITE SPECIAL AS THE GN IS, GENERAL MOTORS SHOULD HAVE DONE IT RIGHT , THEY COULD HAVE DONE A PREMIUM SEAT ON THE GNX, DID THEY, UCK NO

THE IS NOT ROYALTY IN THE BUICK REGAL
AN OPPOSITE ANALOGY WOULD BE A GOLD PLATED YUGO IS STILL AN PIECE OF $HIT!!

NOT CONVINCED or satisfied with , nor do I worship the ground that GM OWNS or the PIG SUV's THAT RUNIED THE COMPANY
, BUT I LOVE MY GN, JUST NOT TOO HAPPY WITH THE COMPANY THAT MADE IT!

SAW A NISSIAN GT-R TODAY , BRAND NEW AND SILVER, THIS CAR MAY BE RICE BUT I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE ONE!!!!!!, SO I COULD SMOKE IT WITH MY BUICK?

Not sure why the bitter commentary, but ...

Fact is, it was an 80s end of life platform (the G body) and if you look at contemporary cars, they were all pretty much so-so in quality. Especially in the $18K price range (domestic or foreign). I ordered my GN from the factory and modern cars make the fit and finish look like a third grader put it together. My '05 GTO has very nice fit and finish.

As to the GTR, when it drops the $28K transmission because the owner uses the launch control and voids the warranty, you could beat it on a bicycle! For that kind of money, gimme a ZR1 any day... the GTRs seem to be full of "fan boi" hype and aren't really living up to it on the street.

Here's something to piss you off even more! Why is the arrow of the Power 6 on the stock GN wheels going in back of the 6 and the arrow on the fender emblem and seats going over the top of the 6? And the color on the wheelcaps do not match the emblem OR the seat Power 6.
