This was my great Aunt's favorite car. She had a '75 black on black w/blue grey interior & wire hubs. It was totaled the same year when a drunk driver broadsided it. She replaced it with a '76 white top over Potomac blue with blue interior & Buick road wheels. Mom & Dad were the only people she would let drive it. BTW folks, those are NOT aftermarket wire wheel covers. They are Buick wire wheel covers and very rare.

What a beautiful car! Hard to believe that this car is 45 years old, but also basically still brand new! I grew up in a strong GM family and for me personally, I was always and still am very partial to Buick! This car would be so amazing for taking long trips, as it is a cruiser and would ride like a dream! Would dearly love to purchase this beauty, but it's just not in the cards. 😥. Oh the one that got away! Lol

Powerful, refined, utterly reliable, and with the quick variable-ratio steering and well-tuned suspension, it had confident handling and a wallow-free ride that belied its size. I miss that car.

No tears, wear Marks, nothing, not even on that center fold down front armrest...which is the same fabric. My point is, even if you could get that cloth interior in the vehicle you desire today, you'll have your choice of light gray, dark gray or black. This Buick is a nice dark burgundy with a light gray cloth interior called "platinum" to make it sound fancy. That color combo is just "off". I bought it used mainly for the 3800 engine.
