We've said it before, and we'll say it again: If you can afford any new car, you can afford a Buick—and the sales figures make the proof of that stronger and stronger. Just ask yourself: which cars would normally be in the top 3 of America's best sellers? The well-known smaller cars—naturally. But which cars are in that Big 3? Two of the well-known smaller cars, and Buick—for over two years running now. That means Buick prices are well within reach of more and more people—thanks primarily to the budget-tagged Buick Special, like "Drive from Factory Save up to $19000 See Your BUICK Dealer" 410 S.
