It’s too bad Buick has forsaken this model. I contend that if they were to bring back a truly full-sized luxury sedan with plush, cloth interiors and design elements, they’d have customers lined up at the door.

The 260HP is due to the heads not being aluminum as in the Corvette. Hope you have one and enjoy it. Cars today are much too small inside and all look the same outside.

That's why I'm never going to sell my 08 Town Car I will drive it until it dies it's the closest you can get to this kind of body-on-frame American sedan but modern enough to handle daily driving. If gm didn't kill the b body I'd have one no question

Indeed. The Town Car was built too well, probably not enough profit in it. Owners keep them forever, they were often used for livery as they can last a few hundred thousand miles with ease.

I've always loved these Roadmasters and I've wanted one for years. Odd how GM admits that they left a part of the market behind when they went to the FWD full size cars in '85. Odd how they felt the need to bring it back on '91, only to kill it again in '96, which allowed Ford to single handedly own this segment until 2011. While they will never come back, there's still a market for these cars. I'm not old by any means (under 30) and I'd buy a full sized RWD GM car TOMORROW if they made them again.
