1985 Buick LeSabre Collectors Edition Limited review from North America
"The 307 was nice... but now the 455 Olds in it makes it a road bully"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Oil burning.
Driver side window slid off its track.
Passenger door wouldn't open from the outside.
General comments?
This car was surprisingly quick when I got it. The stock Olds 307 5.0 liter had some nice power. I do wish they stock 'em with 350 Olds engines though. With that said I dropped a 455 Olds into it.
Nice sized road bully.
