I know that some people here, post the cars they own at the bottom of the post, but many do not and we do not know what cars are owned by the folks that post here. So the question is: What is your car(s), whether it be Buick or not. Maybe a car you just recently sold, ot one you are planning to buy in the near future. If possible, list if it is a special model and engine/transmission if engine is known. Would be interesting to see the most popular Buick. Please list year and model. I will start it off by listing my cars:<P> <B>*1972 Buick Electra 225 Custom 4-door hardtop sedan (455 V-8, automatic - antique gold/sandalwood top) (maybe sold)</B><BR><B>*1989 Pontiac Safari 4-door wagon 9-passenger (307 V-8, automatic - dark blue/woodgrain)</B><BR><B>*1991 Honda Accord LX 4-door sedan (2.2L 4cyl, automatic - light gold)</B><BR><B>*1989 Honda Accord DX 2-door coupe (2.0L 4cyl, 5-speed - red) (recently sold)</B><P>(Next new car(s) bought will be: (hopefully)<BR>2002 Toyota Camry XLE 4dr<BR>2002 Honda Accord EX 4dr<BR>next used car(s)<BR>1995-1998 Nissan Maxima GXE 4dr<BR>1990-1995 Lexus LS 400<BR>1995-1996 Toyota Tacoma 4WD ext cab pickup<BR>1991-1996 Buick Estate Wagon<BR>1995-2001 Chevrolet Silverado 4WD ext cab pickup<BR>1993-1996 Chevrolet Caprice sedan<P>(Next classic(s) - I hope:<BR>1970 Chevrolet Kingswood Estate wagon<BR>1972 Pontiac Grand Safari wagon<BR>1973 Chevrolet Caprice Estate wagon<BR>1971-1972 Pontiac Grand Ville 4dr hardtop<BR>1959 Pontiac Bonneville Safari wagon<BR>1971-1973 Ford LTD Country Squire)<P>Family's cars:<P>Dads: 1988 Nissan 4WD Desert Runner pickup<BR>Moms: 1981 Toyota Cressida 4dr luxury sedan<P>*Other cars in the immediate family:<BR> shocked.gif" border="0<BR> <BR>1996 Buick LeSabre Custom 4-door sedan (grandmothers car)- Dads side<BR>1985 Isuzu pickup (grandfathers car)- Dads side<BR>----<BR>1955 Buick Special Riviera 4-door hardtop sedan (grandfathers car)- Moms side<BR>1984 Toyota Van & 83 Toyota 4wd truck(grandfathers car)- Moms side<BR>1990 Mazda 929 4-door sedan (grandmothers car)- Moms side<BR>----<BR>Aunts/uncles cars: (too many to list, as I have 2 uncles that deal in old cars as a hobby and always buying/selling)<P>Moms brothers and their wifes cars: (space between different ones)<BR>1990 Ford Aerostar<BR>1988 Ford Thunderbird<BR>1960 Pontiac Catalina 2-door sedan (2)<BR>1960 Pontiac Safari wagon<BR>1950 Ford DeLuxe coupe<BR>1949 Ford DeLuxe coupe<BR>1973 Mercury Cougar XR-7<BR>1966 Ford Galaxie 500 4dr<BR>1972 Cadillac Fleetwood 4dr<BR>1957 Buick Special 2dr <BR>(this is a uncle that trades old cars as a hobby) <BR>----<BR>1990 Lexus LS400<BR>1995 GMC Suburban 4wd diesel<BR>1958 Lincoln Mark III convertible<BR>1974 Buick LeSabre Luxus convertible<BR>(this is the other one that deals in old cars as a hobby- too many to list) rolleyes.gif" border="0 <BR>----<BR>1990 Jeep Cherokee<BR>1987 Volvo 240 wagon<BR>1990 Honda Accord 4dr<BR>----<BR>1996 Ford Taurus 4dr (was sold)<BR>2000 Oldsmobile Alero 4dr <BR>2000 Pontiac Grand AM 4dr <BR>other cars not known rolleyes.gif" border="0<BR>----<BR>1992 Mazda Protege DX 4dr<BR>1986 Volvo 240 DL wagon<BR>1981 Volvo GL 4dr<BR>1984 Ford F-150 4wd diesel<BR>1957 Pontiac Star Chief 4-door hardtop<BR>1989 Ford Ranger 4WD truck <BR>----<BR>Moms sister and her husbands cars:<BR>2001 Nissan Altima SE 4dr<BR>2000 Nissan Frontier SE 4wd Ext.

I currently own three Buicks:<P>1959 Electra 4-door hardtop in solid Silver Birch with gray interior. Car has the 401-cid nailhead and the optional Triple Turbine transmission. Recently obtained the rare Transportable Radio option. Acquired from original owner family in 1998. Remembered this car from my childhood, since the owner usually stored the car at the hometown (Baker City, OR) Buick dealership.<P>1971 Centurion Formal Coupe (2-door hardtop) in Sandpiper Beige, Dark Brown vinyl roof with black Centurion Paint Stripe and Saddle interior. Car is equipped with the 455-cid engine and THM-400 transmission. My parents purchased the car new on 12/17/70. The car has more than 150,000 miles, has never required significant mechanical repairs, and still looks and drives as new. I've owned since the late 1970's.<P>1989 LeSabre Limited Coupe in Ruby Red. My parents purchased this one new in August, 1989. The car is totally loaded. I've owned the car since late 1998, and it is my beautiful daily driver with just under 100,000-miles.<P>Our family vehicle is a 1999 GMC Safari in Forest Green with the gold lower body cladding and leather interior option. This vehicle is loaded, including front and rear A/C.

72 ELECTRA 225 CUSTOM: 4 door, royal blue with black vinyl top. blue cloth interior. Bought from second owner. He got it from his uncle who bought it new and kept it in the garage for 27 years. It has 37K miles on it. When I bought it it had a dented door and the front seat was ripped. I replaced the door and had the front seat reapholstered. Then I repainted it and it looks like a new car. I got it for a disgracefully low price. It is my favorite car to drive.<P>65 CADILLAC ELDORADO CONVERTIBLE: Just finished (or thought I did) a 2 year restoration and learned that the motor may be bad. Red with original black leather interior. Don't know much about the history other than it was a restoration that was started about 20 years ago then stopped. It sat in a body shop for 20 years and I bought it dissasembled and had to do almost everything to it. I will fix the motor this winter. hopefully cruising with top down by next spring!<P>66 CADILLAC FLEETWOOD SEREIES 75 LIMO. 63k miles. owned by the federal Govt. from 66 to 69 when it was purchased at a government auction by a funeral home in Virginia. It was used as a "family car" by the funeral home for the next 30 years. Then it was purchased by a car nut who sold it to me about a year ago. It is black with a gray cloth interior. It has the divider window, and black leather front seat. Interesting note... The front seat is very upright and won't go back very far. Not even enough leg room for me and I am only 5'7". It is not very comfortable to drive but apleasure to ride in the back. I guess that the chaufers comfort was not much of a consideration. It needs a new paint job. I hope to paint it this winter. <P>72 CADILLAC SEDAN DEVILLE: 69K miles, gold with dark brown vinyl top. Mint condition brown leather interior. Owned by original owner until a few years ago when it was bought at an estate sale by the person I bought it from. Needs painted and a new vinyl top. I hope to do both this winter. <P>Previously owned...<BR>71 Riviera<BR>62 Thunderbird (owned longest of any car,15yrs)<BR>77 Seville<BR>78 Seville<BR>58 Chevy<BR>64 Oldsmobile jetstar 88 convertible<BR>49 Chevy Suburban, street rod<BR>70 Pontiac Bonneville (1st car)<BR>84 Thunderbird turbo coupe<BR>89 Thunderbird Super Coupe

My baby is a 1955 Roadmaster 76R with 72000 miles on it that I have qwned for 31 years. I showed it from 1975 to 1979 and captured 47 trophies---the last of which was a 3rd place at the Buick Nationals in Minn.,Mn.,in 1979. I then like a fool put it in storage for 22 years(indoor garage not temp.controlled) and it deteriorated badly. I am in the process of bringing it back to a No.2. My other cars are Ford Products. A 2000 Towncar, 1998 Expedition, plus my company owns 4 F-150 Pickups. GM hasn't made a decent car since the late 60's---with the exception of Buick Was are pretty fair--althogh the last Buick I owned( a1977 Century) was the worst car i ever had. Stayed in shop all the time and literally fell apart before it was 2 years old with 25000 on it. Until I started driving Fords I had 1970 Chevy,Bummer;1975 Chevvy PU,Bummer; 1977 Century,Double Bummer;1979 Caddy,Bummer; 1982 Caddy , Double Bummer;1985 Chevvy PU, Double Bummer. In 1985, I bought my first town car and since then have owned 6 Towncars, 1 Explorer, 1 Expedition, and 8 Ford F-150s without a single complaint.

The older Buick's must have bite the dust because I haven't seen many listed. We have a 1912 Buick Model 35, waiting restoration. Our new cars are a 1992 Buick Park Avenue and a 1994 Buick Roadmaster. Out in the garage, other antique notables are a 1911 Sears Model H, 1934 Chevrolet, 1915 Ford Model T, 1924 Ford Model T, 1930 Ford Model A, and a 1923 Ford Model T Laundry Truck.
