HOTTEST BUtCK IN ,
In history - topp^g „Blg Three >"
Did you think you couldn’t afford the
price of a new 195S Bulck?
^ou certainly can — if you can afford any
new car. And we proudly show our price
here to prove it.
For the delivered price of the Buick Special
Sedan shown here is sharply competitive
with those of the three best-known smaller
cars— lower, in fact, than some models of
those same cars.
Buick Sales Are Soaring
That’s one big reason why Buick production
and Buick sales are hitting all-time record
highs today—and why Buick is outselling all
other cars in America except two of the
best-known smaller cars.
But an even bigger reason is this fact:
The price you pay for a Buick buys you a
lot more automobile than the same money
buys elsewhere.
It buys you big-car room and size and com
fort and brawn. It buys you Buick sty ling,
Buick power, Buick handling, Buick ride
steadiness —and the fun and pride and satis
faction of bossing the hottest car of the year.
And it buys you the widest choice in the
industry today. For there’s a Buick to fit
any price range you name —the low-price
Special, the high-powered Century, the
extra-roomy Super, and the custom-built
Roadmaster.
So why not come in and see how easy it is
to swing the Buick beauty you’ve got your
heart set on? Then you’ll see why the thrill
of the year is Buick in a lot more ways
than one.
-that the Buick SPECIAL is priced below
any other car of 188 horsepower and
122-inch wheeibase?
-that the Buick SPECIAL is priced below
some models of the three best-known
smaller cars?
-that the Buick SPECIAL gives you more
pounds of automobile than any oth.r car
at its low price?
