you can own
for only $200more
than the best models of the leading low-priced cars...
This is in no way a “stripped” car you’re
looking at. Come in and study the manufac
turer’s suggested retail price of a Buick
LeSABRE like this, equipped with Twin Tur
bine automatic transmission, radio, heater,
white sidewall tires, and anything else you
want in your next car. Then do the same to
the top models of the leading low-priced three,
and you’ll find the statement above stands up.
What a difference for only $2001
Now think how much more you’d enjoy a
Buick. A comfortable, substantially built auto
mobile. A car with the finest ride in all Buick
history. A car with Buick’s exclusive fin-cooled
brakes, and the smoothest type of transmission
money can buy. A wonderfully quiet and
greatly respected car!
Owners report QUALITY outstanding
Your money in a Buick today puts you in on
the ground floor of what promises to be a long
new time of leadership for Buick cars. 1 My
sixth Buick and the best I ever owned! ’ • • •
“Best-operating car I’ve driven in thirty
years!” . . . “Much the best Buick yet!” . . .
Reports like these mean extra pleasure in your
Buick ownership . . . and they mean hard
dollar value when the time comes to trade.
It all adds up to the best proof in 50 years that.
“WHEN BETTER AUTOMOBILES ARE BUILT,
BUICK PEOPLE WILL BUILD THEM I”
New in gas economy, too!
In planning the ’59 Buick, the new Wildcat
engines, transmissions, and axles were all
engineered to work together for greater gas
mileage. Across the country owners tell us
they are getting 15 to 20 miles per gallon in
the ’59 Buicks. And in a recent thorough test
of Buick LeSabre against another car of
comparable size and a good reputation for
economy ... the Buick won in every case
under all kinds of driving conditions.
So we think we’ve got a new kind of value in
this Buick LeSabre. And we suggest you go
to your Quality Buick Dealer’s and see whether
you agree before you buy a new car.
