MrEarl Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Thanks for posting Brian....Some interesting tid bits... By 1975 the Electra had grown to 233 inches, making it the longest vehicle Buick has ever produced (a Chevrolet Suburban is 222.4 inches long).Buick doesn't currently offer anything that quick, but today's Regal GS is the brand's fastest ever car with a recorded top speed of 162mph.Buick had a hot rod streak in the 1980s. Buick won two NASCAR Manufacturer Championships during the decade (1981 and 1982) and the 1987 Buick GNX was the quickest car sold in America, boasting a 0-60 time of just 4.6 seconds.and some of the reader comments were typical 110 years old. That's just slightly older than the average Buick owner.and one of them could have been mineHappy B-day Buick. As a celebration you should bring back more of the old names we grew up with and the red, white, and blue tri-shield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
