Which of the following long-running Buick models NEVER offered a factory turbocharged engine?
A. Skyhawk (1984-87)
B. Skylark (NEVER!)
C. Century (1978-80)
D. Regal (1978-87, 2011-date)
E. LeSabre (1978-79)
F. Riviera (1979-85)
Even though the Skylark name was around for 36 model years, right through Buick’s turbocharged (and supercharged) era, and even though its platform mate, the 1962 Olds F-85 Cutlass Jetfire, got a turbo’d version of the Skylark’s own aluminum V8, no Skylark ever saw a turbo available under its hood.
Congratulations to !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! for coming up with the right answer first.

Nope. The LeSabre came with the 3.8 Turbo from 1978-79.

Googled “Buick (x) turbo”, found results for all the models you listed except Skylark.
