1994 Buick Roadmaster Station Wagon review from North America
"The best car I ever owned!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
First year I owned her the EGR valve needed an easy 1 hour replacement.
Later on I replaced the rear air shocks because of small leaks.
The last thing I have done for her was change her radiator and transmission cooling lines.
General comments?
In 2001 I had her shipped to Germany. I upgraded her EPROM computer and made her ungoverned. Top speed for me is 132 mph and she had plenty more gas pedal left! People are fooled by the looks of her. She is a true muscle car under that wagon shell.
Who knows how fast this car will go will the right combination of higher drive axle gears. She floats down the Autobahn over here at 120 mph no problem. I get a lot of jokes about her woodgrain and size, but when it comes to performance I leave every car and I mean every car, even the BMW's, sucking my Detroit exhaust.
