1986 Buick Grand National 3.8L Turbocharged Only 30,215 Original Miles!

This 1986 Buick Grand National is a standout example of one of the most iconic American performance cars of the 1980s, offering the perfect blend of originality, careful updates, and unmistakable presence. With only 30,215 original miles, this Grand National has been clearly preserved and enjoyed responsibly, making it an increasingly rare find in today's market. Of the 5,512 Grand Nationals produced for the 1986 model year, few remain in this condition with documented mileage and thoughtful maintenance.

Finished in its signature black exterior, the car presents exactly as a Grand National should—stealthy, aggressive, and instantly recognizable. The paint shows great overall, with one repaint performed at some point in its life that maintains the deep, glossy appearance these cars are known for. The exterior pairs perfectly with the factory 15-inch wheels wrapped in correct-size 235/60R15 tires front and rear, giving the car its proper stance and period-correct look.

Under the hood sits the legendary 3.8L turbocharged V6, a powerplant that rewrote the performance rulebook in the 1980s and continues to impress today. Backed by a 4-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, this Grand National delivers strong, effortless performance. The turbocharger was rebuilt in June of 2019, and the car has since benefitted from several key upgrades and service items, including a new radiator, a new TurboTweak mass air flow sensor, and upgraded fuel injectors. These improvements enhance reliability and drivability while respecting the car's original character. Receipts are included, documenting the care and investment made over time.

The interior features the factory black and gray cloth bucket seats with a center console, offering a comfortable and authentic driving environment. It remains true to its original design and complements the exterior perfectly. Amenities include power steering and air conditioning, making the car enjoyable to drive in modern conditions, along with an AM/FM audio system equipped with a CD changer for added convenience without detracting from the factory feel.

Mechanically, the car retains its factory front and rear suspension setup, along with power front disc brakes that provide confident stopping power. Everything works together to deliver the unique driving experience that made the Grand National famous—smooth cruising when you want it, with aggressive turbocharged performance always on tap.

This Grand National is supported by a clean Carfax report with recorded mileage, further reinforcing its authenticity and careful ownership history. It represents a rare opportunity to own a low-mileage, well-maintained example of a true American performance legend that continues to appreciate in both desirability and value. From its sinister appearance to its turbocharged performance and documented care, this 1986 Buick Grand National shows great overall and is ready to be enjoyed, admired, and proudly added to any serious collection.
