1991 Buick Park Avenue Sedan from North America - Comments

Power antenna stopped working in the up position ($150.00 for a replacement).

This is my 3rd Park Avenue, after being on hiatus with a 1991 Seville STS. I love the gas mileage (32mpg hwy) on the Park. I am keeping/driving this one until I get a '97 and up body style Park Avenue.

For the money you cannot beat these cars. They are 10 times better than any Cadillac I have driven, and comparable to an early '90's Lexus LS400 in comfort, and value, etc. I paid $5000 for mine and it has it all... leather, moonroof, cell phone, memory seat, CD player, alloys, etc. The mileage on these cars don't scare me a bit, they can routinely go over 200,000 so I have at least 50,000 left.

That 3.8 is an amazing engine!

One question:

Where is the fuse box in this car, because I have a 1991 Park Avenue and I don't know where is it.

Thanks. My e-mail is papo71@hotmail.com

Well here's my take on the 1991 Park Avenue.

Mine has been expensive to keep, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I've owned 35+ cars over the last 30+ years, and this is my favorite, or tied for first (my 1966 Catalina was a sweet heart)

Expensive: Shocks, brakes, Transmission flushes, water pump (twice) (once because the dealer screwed up), motor mounts 3 times, ball joints and a sub frame just last week… oh, the AC just went bad: (

202,000+ miles on it. Paint and chrome getting rough, but it's still "My Car!" I like not making payments EACH month. Yes I'm sort of making them each time it breaks down, but that's not each month, and when I do have to have to worked on, it's been $200.00 - $400.00.

I'm starting to look for another car, and I'm not sure which way I'll go. I just saw a very nice 1987 Mercedes for a great price:) But I just saw a 1994 Buick Roadmaster, which gets rave reviews???

I just recently purchased a 1991 Buick Park Avenue Ultra from a friend who owned it for one year. Prior to that it was owned by one other person from the day it was purchased off the show room floor. For the year I had seen my friend drive this car, I always wanted it or one like it.

Smooth riding (like being in your living room) and loaded with all the bells and whistles. This car has over 240K miles on it, but you'd never know. It starts up strong each time, and has yet to fail, aside from a flat - lol.

I agree with one other comment posted here. The Buick Park Avenue is better than the Cadillac Coupe deVille I owned years ago.

I know the car is getting up there in years and mileage, but here's to hitting 300K or more. I'll post again when I reach that odometer reading.

Thanks

I just bought a 1991 Park Avenue Ultra with 217,000 on it. the paint is still very descent, it rides nice, and handles nice

the brakes have good stopping power and the motor is quiet.

One of the previous owners had left the oil change record and it was changed every 3000 miles as recommended. The only problem I have is that the rocker panels (the long panel that runs under the doors) is totally rusted, but are hiden by a plastic molding that covers it on the Ultra model.
