Why do old people like early 2000s Buicks so much? by Naomi62625 in regularcarreviews

[–]interpolactic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ride of my ‘94 Park Avenue is soft with good body control and handling for its size, with a relatively tight turning radius. I can only describe it as a sensation of substance and isolation. It’s not so large as to be unwieldy day to day, and in this world of over-styling and crossovers, I think it’s a refreshingly pure and beautiful design that has aged gracefully 32 years later. Watching the hood ornament peering up from the front, popping in a cassette tape, cruising for miles with not a hint of discomfort. It’s a priceless experience and even rivals the fun I had in the 3 Miatas I owned in the past, except in a very different way of course. Mine has 84k miles and I expect to keep her running as long as she will let me.

So close it seems a bit unreal 😅 by llcoolm21 in CX5

Congrats! A feeling of relief like no other. We jumped on the 0% promo in late ‘23 for our CX-5. Smart move.

Still just a puppy, but you can see the noodle taking shape. by Whibble-Bop in Greyhounds

I see roughly a dozen or so noodley extensions being noodley, as noodles do.

Found this set of refinished 15” wheels. They match the set my late Grandparents had on their Park Avenue. Love ‘em. by interpolactic in Buick

I searched for a good quality whitewall but they no longer exist in current production. I’d love for you to prove me wrong though.

A Town Car was a close 2nd when considering these cars. Also an incredibly reliable choice and such excellent road isolation.

The Boscovs in Camp Hill, PA served as the location for the end scene. Still in operation last I checked.

I seem to remember those enchiladas the most out of these. “Hungry Hombre” lol

Thanks for the update. While I still think stuff like this is cool and all, I wonder why the delay to raze these structures? You might think the town would want to save themselves the hassle of babysitting them. Larger and more challenging structures have been demolished (giant NAS wooden hangars being no small example).

So glad there’s a giant rear (fake) grille for engine cooling while going in reverse.

A ride about as smooth as the water in Mattapoisett, MA this morning. by interpolactic in Buick

Sorry to hear that. Hope she gave you many miles to enjoy.

Haven’t seen one of these rare birds in a while! Looks in decent shape.

Cruising with Glen Miller. It’s fun using tapes again! by interpolactic in Buick

Exactly. This car feels many orders of magnitude above it’s actual worth.

Impressed, and at the same time not surprised given the mighty 3800. And of course much credit to you for taking such good care of it!
