Did you say light car?!? Lol it weighs more than the 90 corvette by several hundred pounds and was never intended to be sports car. It was meant to bridge the gap between young and old and be the halo model of buick.

Agreed! But because it wasn’t a performance car, young folks weren’t interested and because it wasn’t big and grand, old folks weren’t either. Such a shame…but I still love them! Thank you and cheers!

@@thecarglutton8672 Obviously we disagree. It's yours to do with as you wish, of course. However as it appears for most people it seems to be the fashion to cheer on the practive of defacing classic cars like this I figure I'll be the dissenting voice. You are not a better designer than Bruno Sacco and anything you do to it will lessen it in the eyes of the discerning.

Congratulations on a beautiful car, the color combination is rare and only 95 were made Maui Blue with the Slate interior in 1990. The kick is that only 26 were made in 1990 in that color combination with factor sun roof. Why do I know that… I have one of the other 25 ever made. It is an awesome car, I bought mine one year old and garaged it for 25 years. Mine just turned over to 60,000 miles and I take it to shows only these days. I hope you decided to keep it as I can’t imagine ever selling it.

That’s an awesome point about the sweet spot between nice and too nice… in most cases I don’t have the $$$ to deal in the museum quality, barely driven, jackpot deals.

Apache 10👍 The Apache truck was made from 1958 to 1961.The double headlight years. 1960-1961 and 1962 Had a X Box frame that was made with torsion bar suspension Hydraulic clutch. Gave it a car like ride for the first time ever on a truck. However the patent owned by some other company. 1963 they made the famous ladder frame and front sping A arm front suspension. They are rare and unique in their own way. Cool truck 👍

Enjoy!👍 I picked up a 95 STS with 111,000 miles for $1300 in July of 2021. Not what I was looking for, but the used car market was going apeshit, price wise. I've grown to really like the car. Gas is painful around town with about 12-14mpg. (My right foot does Not help!😁) Average between 21 and 22+ on the freeway. Currently have about 120,000 miles and pray that it doesn't have the head bolt issue! 🙏 It's Black on Black with Black interior. Need to repair the top surfaces clear coat eventually. Like most higher mileage Northstar engines, it does burn a bit of oil between oil changes, but Not like a BMW M3! No visible smoke! 👍 When you open it up, and get the variable cam timing kicking in, it makes a Wonderful sound from the engine singing! 🥰 Good luck on your journey! Mike in San Diego. 🌞🎸🚀🖖
