1995 Buick Park Avenue

Pros: Reliability, Ride, Comfort, Fuel Economy, FWD

Cons: Looks cheap and tacky inside.

The Bottom Line: For inexpensive transportation in comfort its the best choice I ever made.

Review: I purchased a used 1995 Park Avenue as a winter/commuting vehicle because I was tired of spending thousands of dollars on expensive cars that just got me back and forth to work. So, after a little (actually a lot) of searching of Craigs List I came up ...

Pros: Solid body, quiet ride, very comfortable

Cons: None

Review: About 6 months ago my husband and I bought a used Buick Park Avenue. We had wanted a car that would get us across the country on our vacation. The Park Avenue was offered to us by the car salesman because it fit our needs. We really hadn't been...

Pros: Fully loaded, drives smooth, safe, no major trips to the mechanic

Cons: too big for me, not a sports car

Review: My parents bought a Buick Park Avenue new in 1995. They had it until about 6 months ago when they traded it in on a Dodge Durango (different review...you should check it out).

Anyway, my mother loved this car. Here is basically what she...

Pros: Very reliable, comfortable,quiet,secure, low purchase price

Cons: Typical American car fit and finish issues. Turns like a boat.

Review: I wanted something comfortable, safe and reliable for business trips. We were also expecting our first child. I must be the only thirty-something to own one of these but I am completely satisfied. The price was right, the reliability has been better than ...

Pros: Roomy, large trunk, comfortable seats, lots of convenience options (on my Ultra)

Cons: Reliability is way below par

Review: In 1998 I purchased my 1995 Ultra with 36K miles with all the options from Marvin K. Brown. We have always enjoyed driving around in it. The only problem is the continual repairs. The turbo-charger broke about a year after the purchase at about 46K...

Pros: big

Cons: fails in a lot of basic tasks, engine seems unreliable

Review: My dad owns a '95 version of the Park Avenue and he hasn't been all that impressed. Right when he bought it we discovered a problem, the back air vents didn't work. Well four years down the road and there are more problems to be found. The brakes have...

Pros: Large, comfortable on long trips, nice looking

Cons: Bouncy ride, leans harshly in turns, reliability has been poor

The Bottom Line: It's roomy and great for long trips, however, it has been unreliable and is also very unpleasant to drive within the city limits.

Review: In 1999, I was looking for a large sedan with which I could take long trips. After much consideration, I decided on a Buick Park Avenue. After checking the prices of new ones ($31,500.00)I decided on a late model used one. The car that I chose was a...
