1993 Buick LeSabre Custom from North America - Comments

"When better cars are built, Buick will build them"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The previous owner replaced the water pump, tires, battery, radiator, and fixed the a/c before I bought the car. I had to repair a spot of rot (very common of the full size GM cars) in the trunk with fiberglass.

General comments?

Driving a Le Sabre is like driving a freight train, its big, fast, and reliable. The soft Dyna Ride suspension makes it feel like your floating on a cloud yet keeps the car controlled in the twist and turns. The 3.8 liter V6 is fast and quiet, with pick up being much stronger then one might expect from a car this big. The automatic transmission has auto overdrive and is resonsive and smooth even under hard conditions. I bought this car to replace my 1992 Pontiac Bonneville, and both cars share the same engine and basic platform as well as the Oldsmobile 88.

The Seats are great, I have power drivers seat and its as comfortable as can be. All controls are clear and the heat and a/c work quickly. The car can seat 5 people comfortable, though 6 is tight. The trunk will hold a small condo.

The paint has held up well although it has some light scratches and there is a small crack in the plastic front passenger fender, which is common with these cars. The stereo sounds good, I have the am/Fm/cassette and power antenna. After driving this car I can say my next car will be a Buick.

1993 saw standard ABS and it's a slight improvement over my Bonneville which didn't have ABS.

The center armrest holds cassettes, glasses, and much more and is very useful.

This car is the worlds premier highway cruiser.

I own a Buick Park Avenue (1993) and it has served me extremely well. It has 119,000 miles and I have had no major problems. I have owned nothing, but Buick's in my lifetime (I am 72 and going strong) and I have never, ever been tempted to buy a foreign car. As far as I am concerned, BUICK is the car to beat, but beat it--you cannot!!!
