    Those rubberband tires definitely ruin the ride experience though.

    The suspension was designed for tires with sidewall to absorb some of the road shock, those rubberbands transfer every tiny pebble to the passengers.

      Assuming the suspension wasn’t also changed. Given that it’s been dropped, I assume that it has.

      That said, 22inch rims and coilovers are going to be a horrific ride regardless.

      All that money and work to make it look good on a picture. Zero consideration as to the enjoyment 9f driving it. With very few exceptions, car were made to be driven, so drive them.

    One of the most beautiful Buick models ever. Buick had some great designs. But holy hell, too bad beauty was only skin deep. My parents had some misguided loyalty to GM in general and Buick specifically. So many clunky, unreliable turds, so much of my childhood spent broken down on the side of the road.

    Can’t say I’m a big fan of the wheels and the ride height, but still a great looking ride!

    I’m partial to the 1st gen models. 2nd gen cars are indeed cool, but nothing beats the clamp-shell headlights of the '65.
