"Fabulous car!"

This Buick Park Avenue was the best car I ever owned, and I am now 79 years old, had my first car at age 20. This car has features that I don't even find in my current 2014 Toyota Camry. The only thing I would have liked in the car which it didn't have was a GPS. Otherwise I believe it outshines any of the cars I've seen today. Not only that, but almost every time I had a passenger in my car they always commented on how comfortable it was. You could hardly feel any bumps on the road...very smooth...not like the Toyota. I hate to see her go, but she is getting old now. I'm getting used to the Toyota, which is nice, but it's what I can afford now.

"fair vehicle"

Bought vehicle with about 180000 mile on it for $3400.00 and within two years spent $3000.00 in mechanical repairs on it. Not very happy with it.

Ultra, Supercharged 3800
Pros

Supercharger, power everything, moonroof, etc...

Cons

Premium gas

I was lucky in someone I knew at a dealership managed to snag me a 2003 Buick Park avenue ultra this year, 2023, that they received as a trade-in. This is my third and I absolutely love Buicks. They're comfortable, they're quiet, they're fairly quick and reliable (anyone who knows anything about cars is always told me the 3800 is the best engine GM ever built) and I love the style of these Buicks. Lesabre's as well. I've had 2 92' LeSabre's with a 3800 and now the Park avenue ultra with a supercharged 3800. The seats are fairly comfortable, the backseat more so. The ride is exceptionally smooth and the car just eats minor bumps in the road and sort of Baja's over larger ones. The exterior looks smooth and streamlined I suppose. This one's pretty well fully loaded, even the 12 disc CD changer in the trunk still works like a charm. It's quick and if you step on it it'll get a little squirrely. You could probably fit six people in the trunk. It requires premium gas but it gets 18 city, 28 highway. I've had it up to 31. You can easily get 200,000 miles if you take care of it, I've pushed my old LeSabers for more. I have five cigarette lighters or five places to plug things in. Cup holders in front and rear. Ashtrays in the rear with their own cigarette lighters or power access points. Power seats. Power windows. Power locks. Large glove box, two center console storage areas, one with a removable tray with a deeper storage area underneath. Moonroof. Programmable garage door opener. Heads up display. Automatic dimming mirrors. I love Buicks and I adore this vehicle. It's worth having to put premium gas into. It's a thrill to drive and comfortable as could be. You can fit five in the seats and the luggage for five in the trunk with room to spare. This is one of my favorite cars that I've ever owned if not my favorite. I love the look and I love the performance as well as the comfort. The only car I would like better than this was a 2005 Buick Park avenue off road special edition or whatever that is called exactly. Very slick, amazingly fun to drive.
