The GS Stage 1 was equipped with a 455 cubic inch (7.5 liters) V8 engine, specially tuned for higher performance compared to the standard 455.

This car is equipped with automatic transmission and shows 32,964 miles on the odometer.
The car could accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just over 5 seconds and complete the quarter-mile in about 13.5 seconds, making it one of the fastest muscle cars of its era.
The GS Stage 1 had a sleek and aggressive look, with features like a functional hood scoop, distinctive badging, and optional rally wheels.
The interior was designed with both comfort and performance in mind, featuring bucket seats, a center console, and an array of performance-oriented gauges.
It had a heavy-duty suspension system designed to handle the power of the Stage 1 engine. Front disc brakes were standard, providing the necessary stopping power to complement its performance.
The 1970 Buick GS Stage 1 is celebrated among muscle car enthusiasts for its combination of luxury and high performance. It often ranks highly in lists of top muscle cars from the era, and well-preserved examples are highly sought after by collectors today.
Due to its limited production numbers and exceptional performance, the GS Stage 1 has become a valuable collector's item. Prices for well-maintained or fully restored models can be quite high, reflecting its status as a premier muscle car from the golden age of American automotive engineering.
