A great new exclusive from Buick: Advanced Thrust. Moves power forward for arrow-straight going.

Look what's happened to Route 66. The 1961 Buick. As fine, as new, as you can go.

A great new power mate for the Buick Special's aluminium V8. Now a V6! Only Buick has it!

a great new power mate for the Special's aluminum V-8 Now aV-6! Only Buick has it! Six for Savings —V for Voom. It was natural that it came from Buick. Natural that Buick developed the successor to the in-line.six-cylinder engine... the 17-6! A V-6 you can now get in the new 1962 Buick Special (in convert-ible, sedan or station wagon models). A V-6 that has 140 to 179 pounds less weight than in-line sixes of comparable power. A V- 6 that gives you the V- smooth, V- lively Foam of big cars plus gas economy that challenges the com-pacts. A V-6 with the shortest, most rigid block and crankshaft in any American 6-cylinder car. Why is it natural that this great engine should come from Buick? Because it was Buick which also developed an aluminum F-8 which you can also get in the Buick Special. This is the V-8 that gives you sizzling go, yet swept its class in 1961's Mobilgas Economy Run against the country's top drivers. It's natural that it should come from Buick, too, because so many other great automotive advances have . . . such as today's safe, simple directional signals . . . fin-cooled aluminum brakes . . . the first no-shift transmission ... the first hardtop. So here again you have exciting proof that when better auto-mobiles are built, Buick will build them. Buick Motor Division— General Motors Corporation. '62 Buick Special The happy-medium size

There are four turbocharged production cars in the entire world. Two of them are Buicks: the Regal Sport Coupé and the LeSabre Sport Coupé. The other two cars are the Porsche Carrera Turbo and the SAAB Turbo.

There are four turbocharged production cars in the entire world. Two of them are Buicks. Buick Regal Sport Coupé and Buick LeSabre Sport Coupé. In the recent past, if you wanted a car with a turbocharged engine you had to choose from a rather elite group of imports. Two, to be exact. Ah, but now all that has changed. Now Buick offers two production automobiles with turbocharged, even-firing V-6 engines: the new Regal Sport Coupe and the LeSabre Sport Coupe. It makes Buick the only American car maker to offer such wizardry. A word here,pbout turbocharg-ing. Simply put. it's a highly effec-tive means of boosting an engine's horsepower without increasing its size. Turbocharging harnesses the energy of burned exhaust gasses to pump pressurized fuel and air into the combustion cham-bers. When ignited, this pressurized charge provides added power. Best of all, the turbo-charger works only on demand. Lift your foot, and the 3.8 litre (231 cubic-inch) V-6 responds like the six cylinder engine it is. (Available in California in January, 1978.) Science and magic aren't limited solely to the engine compartment, either. There's the Sport Coupe sus-pension to consider. Both Regal and LeSabre make use of a sophis-ticated Rallye ride-and-handling suspension using firm springs. shock absorbers, and front and rear stabilizer bars. But despite the firmness, the ride comfort and smooth-ness will amaze and delight you. After all, these are Buicks. America's only turbocharged production automobile engine. The other two cars are the Porsche Turbo Carrera and the Turbo Saab. We strongly urge you to visit your Buick dealer, who will be more than happy to give you all the details on the great new Buick Sport Coupes. Come on now—they're surpris-ingly affordable, and just exotic enough for you to really love them. A little science. A little magic.

In 1978, we gave the V6 a shot of adrenalin. It hasn't been the same since. Wouldn't you really rather have a Buick?

The turbocharged V-6. Turbocharging. Five years ago hardly anyone even knew what it was. But that wasn't at all surprising considering no American car company offered turbocharging. In any of its cars. Then, in 1978, Buick made automotive history by offering a turbocharged V•6 as standard equipment in three of its cars. Since then, other automakers have jumped on the turbocharging bandwagon. But while they were busy designing theirs, Buick was refining a turbo that was already on the road. The power of horsepower. As you know, a turbo is simply a device which, when called upon, helps produce more horsepower in all engine. The 3.8 liter turbo V-6, for instance, puts out 55% more horsepower than its non-turbocharged counterpart. 36% more horsepower than the non-turbocharged 4.1 liter V-6. And 21% more horsepower than the big 5.0 liter non-turbocharged V-8. Enough horsepower to propel the Regal Sport Coupe from 0.50 in a sizzling 7.9 seconds. The kind of performance that comes in handy when accelerating to highway speeds, passing speeds, or when climbing steep hills. `Further refinements. The turbocharger is an integral part of the engine. Consequently, every turbo Buick offers is carefully and precisely manufactured. With some tolerances as fine as one-ten thousandth of an inch. Other refinements include 'hotter' spark plugs and an electric 'Early Fuel Evaporation' (EFE) system which preheats the incoming air/fuel mixture during cold starts. In addition, an electronic spark control serves to sense detonation and automatically adjusts the spark accordingly. The turbo, like the engine, needs to be well lubricated. So this V-6 turbo comes equipped with a high pressure oil pump that draws from a S-quart oil pan. None of these developments occurred overnight. Rather, they came about over a period of years. So if you're ready for a turbo, look to the people who first introduced it to the American production car. Buick. In the years to come, we'll more than likely be taking it even further. Buicks are equipped with GM•built engines supplied by various divisions. See your Buick dealer for details
