Buick Park Avenue for Sale

Edmunds' Expert Review

by the Edmunds Experts

Pros

Spacious and comfortable interior, strong V6 engine, solid safety scores, good value.

Cons

Floaty ride without Gran Touring package, dated interior design.

What’s new

A special-edition appearance package and optional 17-inch chrome wheels are the only notable changes for the Park Avenue.

Edmunds says

When shopping for an extra-large, luxury-laden sedan of domestic heritage, it's hard to go wrong with the shapely Park Avenue.

Excellent Value As A Used Premium Vehicle

Steven D., 07/11/2018

2005 Buick Park Avenue 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)

My 2005 Buick Park Avenue has 35,000 miles on it, and I'm the second owner. I've had the car for approximately 11 months, and it's proven a reliable and very comfortable vehicle, equal or greater then several luxury cars I've owned. Acceleration is punchy, braking good, though handling is very floaty and steering lacks feedback. Front and rear seats are equally comfortable, and with …

2005 Buick Park Avenue Ultra 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl S/C 4A)

I bought the P.A.Ultra with touring package (used) after owning a similar older Park Ave, which I grew to love. This car is a dream and the fuel injection gives it amazing power. The touring package makes handling very tight and responsive. The car is a TOTAL driving experience:great sound system, luxury comfort:walnut interior trim, leather seats, power everything, sunroof etc. It shows …

Solid comfort, cruiser deluxe

2004 Buick Park Avenue 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)

Acquired this car nine years ago, and have been totally pleased ever since. Fits my tall frame well, and is so comfortable to drive, whether in town or on the Interstate, smooth riding, easy handling. Have even considered getting a second one, just to have available. Did put aluminum wheels on when the original chrome wheels began to peel a bit - that resulted in even better handling. …

Surprised by the performance and great comfort

2004 Buick Park Avenue Ultra 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl S/C 4A)

I've owned a Sedan de Ville, Mercedes S430, BMW 740iL, Saab 9000 Aero and I lived in Germany for 9 years so the speed is wrung out of me as I'm 55 now. The Park Avenue I bought off second owner had 53K miles and was very clean. On the drive home I got a Stability System fault code and thought oh what did I buy. The previous owner told me three times it needed new tires so I bought four …
