200k miles, 1998 supercharged Buick Park Avenue Ultra. Premium audio, heated seats, transmission solenoids replaced (common failure), new KYB rear shocks, plastic coolant elbows replaced with metal ones. Pretty damn solid. Friend is offering to sell it to me for $1200 instead of the $2200 he was going to put it on CL for come tax season. Thinking of replacing my girlfriend’s increasingly-sketchy 1993 Honda Civic with it. Thoughts?

Apologies for iPotato. Picture has enough grain to end world hunger.

Sure why not, you seem experienced enough with old Buicks

Honestly, nobody here is more qualified to evaluate an old Buick than you. It looks good to me.

As long as you don’t touch it, it should be fine.

I’m not judging by why isn’t your girlfriend buying her own car

Ouch. I promise I won’t paint it green.

Fair enough.

Looks like a decent deal, just get it inspected to be sure.

we’re selling the Civic. Should cover a majority of the cost.

How are the tires?

Fine. No rot and plenty of tread.

HVAC good? All buttons work? All features work?

I’m sorry I had to.

Story time: Last year I came across a white ‘95 Riviera with the supercharger with only 20,000 miles or so on it and all the options. It was glorious.

These are solid, comfortable, quick, and surprisingly economical. If it’s in good mechanical condition, it’s a great deal.

do you want to feel rich and own a yacht? Yes? This car is for you. It is terrible in water, but as a LAND yacht, it’s the best.

FWD is unstoppable in snow.

Comfortable enough to rock a baby to sleep

powerful enough to get you to speed

inconspicuous enough to blow by cops and make them think an old man is driving it without realizing how fast - best leave him alone
