2001 Buick Park Avenue Sedan 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)

Review

I bought it new in 2001 and it has always been in the garage when not on the road. I am going to sell it and buy a Honda or Toyota with the modern conveniences. It has been a super great car.

Review

From the gorgeous, classy, yet timeless exterior of my silver park avenue ultra, to its sumptuous leather interior, Buick has put an eye to details in this car. Doesnt simply have memory seats. Its has memory seats, mirrors, radio, and climate control that is link to your individual key fob. The supercharged 3800 model 6 cylinder gasoline engine is known to be one of GM's best small engines, and mine happens to be supercharged. Effortless acceleration and highway passing power sum up this engine, and reliability is excellent as long as you maintain it. SEATS AREA SIMPLY AMAZING. My only complaint is possibly more thigh support, but i have very very long legs. Sound system is 2nd to none.

Best Features

Seats, Engine power AND fuel economy, sound system, overall classy good looks that wont go out of style in 3 yrs like bmws, mercs, lexus', etc. Cavernous trunk. absolutely HUGE car so very safe, yet easy to park.

Worst Features

thigh support on seats.

Review

Overall I've been happy with this car. I put on a lot of miles and averaged about 21mpg which is impressive for a car this size. The supercharged engine really boogies, and it has every option you can ask for. But it is not attractive. As my kids say: it's a "grampa car". I did have problems with the rear struts and rotors, but that might have been caused by Brooklyn roads.

Best Features

Supercharged engine, 10 cd changer, heated seats. The heater works really fast in the winter. Comfort of ride

Worst Features

Overall appearance. Some rear floatiness.

Review

I've owned over 40 cars, and this Buick ranks near the top. I purchased it 6 months ago when it only had 20K miles. I now have 42K miles on the car. I still can't believe I get between 35 - 40 mpg on the highway. A few minor issues with dash squeaks/rattles.

Best Features

Comfort and mileage. The 3800 engine is one of GM's best in recent years.

Worst Features

Climate control. This is the second GM vehicle of recent years I've had with automatic climate control, and both have had problems.
