Barney Eaton Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I was doing some searching yesterday and ran across a site that give 0-60 times for cars. One Buick listed was a 2004 LeSabre GS supercharged with 0 -60 time of 6.5. The site does not say were they picked up the info so was this a production model or a custom built car? I was unaware of a LeSabre GS The site is www.zeroto60times.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney Eaton Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 I think you are correct, pretty sure the car is a Regal GS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTX5467 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 (edited) I concur that BMD probably did not build that vehicle. But it's possible that "a converter" did the car "post-final assembly". There were some add-on supercharger kits for normal 3800 V-6s (usually oriented toward Grand Prixs). Possibly an aftermarket wheel/tire package, some repro GS badges, and some exterior "things" on top of a normal LeSabre with the factory upgraded suspension? Seems like American Sunroof Corporation (ASC) was doing some upgrade kits for GM W-cars back then? Something to counter the Pontiac Bonneville "hot rod" models, back then? A private entity investigating how big a possible niche might be for GM/Buick to consider filling?It seems that many of those websites are "off shore" and might not get all of their details "right". Unfortunately, when the details are not "right", being on the Internet, they are presumed to be "right". I do think it's neat that they went to the trouble to build the website in the first place.Enjoy!NTX5467 Edited February 1, 2015 by NTX5467 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
