Maybe the makeâ€" believe will comg true. ie m * The Buick people have decided not to wait two or three or four years for a major model change to bring in the improvements that became possible this year. To rework that old slogan: there were better cars to be built this year and Buick is building them. They were able to put their topâ€"flight engine in their lowâ€"priced car, so they did it. f The power story is just part of it, although an exâ€" citing part of it and important in new performance and saféty. There are new styles and colors too, ‘that are as breathâ€"taking as Buick‘s acceleration. For unequalled performance the top three Buicks have higher compression ratios â€" they‘ve been raised to 9.5 to 1 â€" and a fourâ€"barrel carburetor to give them 255 horsepower (up from 231). 00 e . Take the Buick Special (that‘s the . M : lowâ€"price Buick, the champagne car at a * %~_ 4 : beer price). Buick has put more horseâ€" /t’f"‘ i power into the lowâ€"price Special and x 6*33" 4 increased the engine‘s size so that it has. W’W‘ so far as I know, the biggest power plant 3 eâ€"" in its ‘class. & We s mt This economy car has a 220 horsepower engine â€" and it‘s exactly the same engine as in the luxurious Century, Super and Roadmaster. That‘s bargainâ€" poweér and performance in a juniorâ€"priced car that no one else has offered. For most cars, it‘s true, 1953 is a year of not too mucl;l change. A daub of chrome here, a little different look inside and that‘s it. Maybe you think I‘m prefudiced, and I suppose I am, but after we‘ve had a quick 200â€"word look at the new Buick I think you‘ll agree that it‘s the * amimme.. . "~ â€" only car that‘s been changed, really “*’ changed, for the better this year.
