Im buying a 1992 white limited Roadmaster this week from a fantastic couple in Little falls NY, its a great machine with 180k on the odom and they kept all records for the past 27 years,, this car has seen no winters/salt all its life and I promised them I will keep her salt free as well!
How,s she treating you what color is interior does it have a landau top?
NICE!!! I wish Buick would bring back a RWD Full size car again. He's describing everything I want in a car...
problem is no one has a clue on how to drive a front-drive 4 banger, let alone an RWD V8
Just do what I did and buy a 90's roadmaster (I got the wagon)
@@themagicboy6548 I have one. A 1994 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon. Poor thing has 238k miles and needs a bit of work. It's all worth it, but be nice to have a brand new one exactly like it. Granted, it is fun to bring it back to its original glory, but also means I don't daily drive it. You really can't go wrong with the wagon
@@kirbyyasha I understand that you don't daily it, mine has 158,000 miles and I had to get the transmission replaced.
@@themagicboy6548 I am hoping my transmission is good. I mean, thankfully, it shifts smooth lol. It's nice hearing though that you are keeping it going and did replace the transmission rather than junking it!
I miss these cars. I drive a 1993 Lincoln Town Car. The Roadmaster was a clear choice for me. The couple I looked at were not well kept, the Lincoln I bought was a garage queen, and a total cream puff.
Got my drivers license in my mother's white '92 sedan. It was quiet as a tomb, more comfortable than most and was pretty quick feeling with that 3.23 rear axle
Such a fine automobile! I have an Estate Wagon, and I love it!
Thank you for this rare video! Own 1992. Greetings from Russia!
You have a Roadmaster in Russia?! That’s amazing I would have never thought there would be 90s boat cruising around there.
@@jnkn3497 I think nearly about 20-30 still exist in Russia. More chevy caprices and some Cadillac Fleetwood cars. Buick never had official dealership in Russia.
@@Stopkin87 yeah I would think they would be few and far between. Even here in the United States, I live in Pennsylvania, to see or buy a nice roadmaster is pretty scarce. Plus the people who do own them don’t want to sell. But I’m happy! Cause I’m currently driving an 89’ Cadillac brougham and I love it. Runs great and I only paid 2500 bucks. One day I will buy a roadmaster though.
That, seriously, was entertaining.
It’s too bad Buick has forsaken this model. I contend that if they were to bring back a truly full-sized luxury sedan with plush, cloth interiors and design elements, they’d have customers lined up at the door.
They missed that boat by 15 years the time was when chrysler released the 300 in 2005 that was the perfect time for a modern RWD Fullsize roadmaster debut
@@TASDET Exactly.
@@TASDET they didnt miss the boat, they built one that we all love
I'd buy one of these and restore it before I bought anything that's been produced for the last decade.
Excellent archival vid, love when the marketing manager was explaining the advantages of Roadmaster wagon and said trucks are just not luxurious, how times have changed.
I miss these good ole Buicks looking at this makes me sad my late aunt had a '95 Roadmaster she loved that car she was a Buick fan that was how I grew up on Buick these cars will always hold special place in my heart.
What happend to it.
@@chasechildress2720 she wrecked it years ago she didn't hurt at all.
@@ramoncarter6585 how did it happen she hit a tree or car or what glad she was ok.
@@chasechildress2720 she got confused pressing the accelerator by accident, Thank God it happened in the parking lot. It was early one morning she was dropping off her niece at college campus she told us when she got out of the car she heard screeching our aunt which was in her late 80s veil off into Fred's parking lot went across three bumps the last bump she airborne her car came to rest right by a church that was next to store. That same day we took get a new car she bought a Ford Fusion she hated that car because she was more GM person when we were at the Ford dealer I walked over looked at Grand Marquis she followed me over there my mother told her get away from those big cars ... LOL because she was used to driving those bigger cars that Roadmaster was her pride and joy though she tore some stuff up in it she really loved that car I did as well it was a beautiful car had one of the smoothest rides.
My dad still drives his after 28 years!
Proud 2nd owner of one of these.
I have 2 92 roadmaster's I love them
I have a 92 Roadmaster Limited with only 119,000 miles on it. She’s my baby!
I have a 92 limited as well.. navy blue with white and red stripes. 78k miles! I love it!
@@ctw0baby that’s sweet man 👏
1992 limited in red leather. 310k miles and works like a clock
When Buick was making gangsta whips.
Roadmaster: The Master of Roads
The '92 Roadmasters were good cars, but the ones to have are the '94 to '96 models with the LT1 260-hp engine!
Agreed! I had a '92. Great car! But, love my '94 with the LT-1!
I thought it was 290 hp ? With the same impala ss engine?
@@juanserrano3871 Here you go Mr. Serrano: The 1992 LT1 in the Y-body was factory rated at 300 hp (220 kW) and 330 lb⋅ft (447 N⋅m). 96 LT1 Y-bodies were rated at 300 hp (220 kW) and 340 lb⋅ft (461 N⋅m). The 93-95 F-bodies were rated at 275 hp (205 kW) and 325 lb⋅ft (441 N⋅m), while the 96-97 cars were rated at 285 hp (213 kW) and 335 lb⋅ft (454 N⋅m). The 96-97 WS6 and SS F-bodies were rated at 305 hp (227 kW). The 94-96 B and D-body version was rated at 260 hp (194 kW) and 330 lb⋅ft (447 N⋅m).
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_small-block_engine#LT1
1994-1996 Impala, Caprice, and Roadmaster are considered "B" bodies. The 260HP is due to the heads not being aluminum as in the Corvette. Hope you have one and enjoy it. Cars today are much too small inside and all look the same outside. At one time I had the Roadmaster, Park Ave, Le Sabre and the Century at the same time. Lt1, (2) 3800's and 3300 engines. All great cars. Only the RM remains. Best of success sir. Michael.....
Geminisixtyfour I’ve had a ‘95 Limited for three years now(69,000 original miles. Now 105,000)
The sales pitch doesn’t lie!
92-93 came with transmission problems too
I my first car was the '95 Buick roadmaster limited with the 5.7 v8 with the Lt1 i put flowmasters and 350 engine on 26's with 4 15's roxfordfasgate speakers it has currently 325 thousand miles
At 15:15, he said, "...before you help your prospect's spouse buckle up in the back..." LOL!
That's why I'm never going to sell my 08 Town Car I will drive it until it dies it's the closest you can get to this kind of body-on-frame American sedan but modern enough to handle daily driving.
If gm didn't kill the b body I'd have one no question
Indeed. The Town Car was built too well, probably not enough profit in it. Owners keep them forever, they were often used for livery as they can last a few hundred thousand miles with ease.
The buick roadmaster is so cool.
I MUCH preferred the Roadmaster's styling to that of the Chevrolet Caprice, which had been introduced the year before.
landyachtfan79 I wish they had used the sedan front clip on the wagon. Gives an entirely new look.
Roadmasters are nice thanks for sharing.
Man that silver and charcoal roadmaster with maroon interior is clean.
Just something I've noticed. A lot of the features that came on the limited and not the base sedan also came on the Estate Wagon trim. I daily my Roadmaster Estate and still love it! I have some vids of it too!
I inherited my dads 92. Now I have a 96 with 22,641 original owner miles bought in 2016 from the widow of the 92 yr old gentleman that bought it. Black on maroon with the tow package. Love it. Currently have it in Germany where I am stationed.
I've always loved these Roadmasters and I've wanted one for years. Odd how GM admits that they left a part of the market behind when they went to the FWD full size cars in '85. Odd how they felt the need to bring it back on '91, only to kill it again in '96, which allowed Ford to single handedly own this segment until 2011. While they will never come back, there's still a market for these cars. I'm not old by any means (under 30) and I'd buy a full sized RWD GM car TOMORROW if they made them again.
I want a Roadmaster
FINNALY A ROADMASTER VIDEO
My road master smoke your buick
My grandfather bought one brand new in 92. My uncle has it now with only 80k on it
looks like the new buick need to look at this video and revive the Holden brand as their own.
I was just thinking that when this was uploaded. Ever since the G8 came here I was hoping they'd try to revive the Roadmaster using the Commodore.
gsxellence they kinda did in China with the 2007-2013 Park Ave. I wish they had sold it here.
Buick, watch this video please bring back these sedans....
A real car not Cookie cutter SUV's...
Nice :)
i'm looking at one with 46,000 miles on it tomorrow. hopefully i get there before anyone else does
Yes I love the room inside I am 6,2 weight 260 I need all that room
Imagine if Buick ever gets into the full size SUV market and bring back the Roadmaster nameplate - Probably won't happen anytime soon, but that would be a sight to behold
This is the type of car you get when it's 100% built by American hands by American standards in an American manufacturer. And I'm so so sad for how it becomes. Nowadays lot of U.S.A-brands cars we get here in the middle east were assembled in different countries by short guys with small eyes. And that's NOT GOOD!
Anything on the 1986-'91 LeSabre?
I must have one!!!!
Ok. I"m sold. Where can I sign on the dotted line to get one?
I love my 1992 Buick Roadmaster sedan
Only has currently 137k miles
Give me a GM car with a full perimeter frame, RWD, V8 engine, good styling and the gas cap behind the license plate so I can pull on either side of the gas pump ....I'll take it.
Roadmaster, a car for mastering roads?!
It's interesting the way they exaggerate the "defect" of other cars.
Now all cars are SUV and Front wheel cars with fiberglass body 🤧
In fairness to the FoMoCo competitors, you don't really NEED a tach on an automatic car.
1994 and up didn't have tachometer
@@jamesruiz4005 I know there is a way to get the speedo on the climate control and I believe you can get the tach there as well.
Nice training video. My Buick service mgr said years ago my 96 Park Ave Ultra was still the flagship. The Roadmaster was purely a cash grab. I had a 1985 Buick LeSabre sedan back in the day, front wheel or rear wheel, no biggie. My last Buick would have been a 2019 LaCrosse except for deal breaker stop/start. I went Chevy Impala V6 with 6 speed tranny, my 3rd Chevy lately.
The only good up to date buick that came was the Rainier and CXL Rainier that's the one with the V8
I just thought watching this that it is sad these guys were out of a position in a few years because GM killed these cars.
ikr
And some dude text me say The Lexus LS 400 was ten times better.I told him he must be smoking Crack
AI3xZJE41 YT The LS400 is a nice car (We had a 95 you can see on my channel) but the Roadmaster is much more smoother and floatier car. You also feel a lot more in charge of the road with the Roadmaster. My Roadmaster surprisingly outlasted our LS, but then again both are VERY reliable cars.
He was right
Hold the geratol Myrtle I gotta go buy a Buick!
Just think their “target market” are all dead now.
Crazy thing is today i mostly see women between 25-40 in their little soccer mom crossovers these day never any elderly they abandoned that demographic
The wire wheel covers are a pain in the @ss.
بيوك دوردماستر ✌🏻
I wish gm care about quality of their car today
A good project vehicle .. slam it with 2009 GMC Yukon Denali engine !
It already comes stock with a 5.7 v8 lt1 Corvette engine why would you do that
Lincoln town car 5,0L engine not 4,5L
See this is y I love my Roadmaster 94 Limited.cause all the new Buicks are junk
Too bad gm shelved it's big rwd cars 4 years later
The announcer looks like a pewdiepie after it will get banned from yt.
Looks very much like a Chevu Caprice with Buick cladding to me
Caprices came with 4.3l V6 or 5.0 V8 in '92, the 5.7l was optional and if I'm right only available on the police versions. Roadmaster comes with the 5.7 only.
@@XJon2011 Please don't feed the trolls.
5.7l v8 and only 180hp thats terrible
3:24 in other words a (Real American car) not those little 4 cilinder front wheel drive unibody Chinese *poor man's*cars they sell today with GM badges on them...
I’m more than five minutes in and all that I’ve seen are two men.
These new Buicks are junk and the money that they want for them is outrageous for front wheel drive junk
I'm pretty sure you can kiss Buick goodbye in about a couple of years. Sad, but I think needed
@@624radicalham
It’s a popular luxury brand in China, so will likely stay around.
@@FrankGutowski-ls8jt Indeed it is. I think Chairman Mao had a 1940s Buick and because of that it's a prestige brand there
@@624radicalham
In the USA Buick only sells SUVs and crossovers that look like jelly beans. Sad.
EPIC FAIL @ 4:56 ...."handling improvements"....NO ONE EVER BOUGHT THIS CAR FOR "HANDLING".....
Yeah, because you know every person that bought one.
King of the Jew canoes!
The turn in on these is actually pretty spot on for a big car.
