My buick is a good starter car, she takes a beating quite well, and if you need parts, they're not hard to come by.

Good solid build, and can handle the winter snow in minnesota quite well, she brakes easily and take sharp corners well, if you know what you're doing.

Pros — She's comfortable and warms up quickly.
Cons — The A/C dies easily and the radiator springs a pinhole leak every once in awhile.

She's an agile little beast! Very responsive to anything you do to her, good acceleration in short bursts, and if you ever need a part, junk yards are full of them!

Well equiped but as with all mid 80's GM products, poor ride, poor power to weight so slow, uncomfortable seats.

Pros — Lots of accessories
Cons — Poor design, poor build quality, sad engine

This was dad's car forever. We finally sold it to the junk yard for $25.00 two years ago. I learned to drive in this monster. This car ran for years though. You can't go wrong with a Buick.

Pros — Buick
Cons — Just like driving a boat
