What Owners are Saying About the 1996 Buick Park Avenue
"Top Quality and Reliability"
"I have owned 3 Buick Park Ave. in the past and I was able to get close to the 300,000 miles on the odometer of each without putting any thing into the motor (3.8 V6) or transmision. All the cars still ran good and I donated them to a vocational high school. If one can afford one buy the new ones in the mid 30's but you cant go wrong with a used on and you can bank on 30mpg."
"Great car!"
"Great mileage, super comfortable! Very reliable. It lasted me, my older sister, and my older brother through high school. If I didn't wreck it, I'd probably take it to college. This car is a tank. It's almost impossible to even leave a dent on it!"

"I have driven this 24 year old car for a year. It has only had one minor repair (a hose connection broke). It is comfortable, powerful, gets reasonable gas mileage, and is very reliable."
