Default My Pride and Joy, 2004 Buick Park Avenue

Just thought I'd share a few images I have been collecting for the last few months I have had my car. She has been nothing but amazing. I also have replaced the door speakers, tweeters, and rear deck speakers with polk audio, a new JVC bluetooth single din radio, and two rockford fosgate R2-D4 10 inch subs in a ported box in the trunk. Awesome car!!


best photo I have of the car to date. Too bad i didnt have my taillight tint on yet.



Beautifuk backdrop



tailight tint day 1



fresh wash!



New High flow cat and downpipe in along with my Flowmaster super 44



Snow day in Texas!



little wheel appreciation...

2006 was a Dark year for Buick....the LeSabre and P/A are replaced by the Lucerne.........I feel a redesigned P/A would have sold better.....

P/A was a nice ride.......the only car that had a better ride was the Riviera.....too bad they didn't have a 4 door version, but had to sacrifice it for Oldsmobile Aurora sales....

What was amazing was the 30+ on highway trips, for such a big car....

And it was an easy car to work on.....

Both of our PA'* are Adriatic blue - nice ride!
Good work on the exhaust/cats!
My PA is still stock mostly, even the original muffler still. Will see how much longer it lasts.
I see on the instant Mpg often 38 mpg, driving the ole comfy couch LOL.
Great car with an excellent motor, as long as the upper & lower manifold gaskets have been replaced.

I'm going to play devils advocate here, but Federally speaking, your tail lights are illegal. If someone rear ends you, they can claim they didn't see your brake lights.

I am in the taillight tint police camp on this one for several reasons.

Details on the Federal level aren't easy to come by.

State law requires brake lights to be visible at 300 feet in daylight, and depending on how they were done, it may be a valid concern.

And my OCD hates it when you tint the tails, but don't tint other stuff like red side markers, and maybe even the amber fronts.

It'* good to see that some of the newer generations are embracing these old birds though.
