Overview & Reviews

A revamped Park Avenue Ultra, chock-full of aesthetic goodies, emerges for 2003. This Ultra model features a new grille, side mirror-mounted turn indicators, 17-inch chrome-plated aluminum wheels and retro-style fender portholes. The three holes on each front fender are meant to link the updated 2003 model to Buick's 40-plus years of design heritage. The Ultra also boasts an improved ride, largely due to the specially-tuned Gran Touring suspension and rear stabilizer bar, both of which are standard Ultra equipment. Inside, faux wood grain trim and a new gauge cluster graphics help define the Ultra's fresh look.

• Big and comfy interior, strong V6 engine, attractive design, good value.

• Sometimes flimsy assembly quality, floaty ride without Gran Touring package.

  We love our Park Avenue! - 2003 Buick Park Avenue
  By 007 Blond - July 10 - 2:03 pm

  Our 2003 Buick Park Avenue is a pleasure to drive. There are no blind spots so we have full view of what is around us when maneuvering in traffic. Comfortable ride is what we get, even on bumpy roads. Our other car, a Lexus, has a blind spot and we feel every bump, so we really appreciate riding in our Buick. There are no rattles so body integrity is built in. Our only problem at the moment is that we need new wheels because of a damaged rim and the dealer is having a problem getting replacements. This car is great and we hope Buick brings back the Park Avenue.

  Comfortable and Quick - 2003 Buick Park Avenue
  By T. Green - May 13 - 10:00 am

  It has the seat comfort for long trips. Easy in and out. Mileage is about 17 to 18 in town which is great for a 380 supercharger. Air controls for passenger and back seat. Classic look. I get compliments on how good looking the car is.

  When Better Cars are Built Buick Will Bu - 2003 Buick Park Avenue
  By E. G. Chandler - August 15 - 10:00 am

  My Buick has never failed to perform in top form. I live in the Desert Southwest where tempratures as high as 115 degrees are common and it has never failed to perform. The Royal dealership in Tucson is without question the best I have ever delt with in always caring for each problem I might have.

  Disapointed with vibration - 2003 Buick Park Avenue
  By Ken Hundley - May 21 - 10:00 am

  Overall the car looks good and is comfortable. But on the highway I have had a bad experience with vibration. The dealer has re-balanced the tires over and over. I have had the tires balance myself two times. Changed tires to different brand. Still this vibration at highway speeds. (Above 65 to 80) Still working on the problem. Could be a design problem. Not what you would expect from a car that cost over $30,000. Could be a lemon?????

  My second leased Ultra - 2003 Buick Park Avenue
  By rdg - December 8 - 2:00 am

  Car is very comfortable. Get alot of complements - appears the new port holes get attention with Ultras chrome wheels. The 2003 addition of front and rear stablizer bars keeps the car relatively flat in corners as compared to the previous 2000 Ultra I leased. Overall I have found Ultras (2000 & 2003) very reliable and mechanically troub

  03 Buick Ultra - 2003 Buick Park Avenue
  By Buick03 - September 26 - 9:33 pm

  This Buick Ultra really looks good to me. It has some "sparkle" to it. I like the quiet ride and wonderful radio sound. Handles very good, and wonderful engine. I have had older Park Ave Ultras, and they have been great cars!

  Ultra! - 2003 Buick Park Avenue
  By Drew - September 17 - 7:30 pm

  i love this car. I dont know how the regular Park Ave is but the Ultra is awesome. The supercharger is such a convienience not to add I rarely loos the random red light races. I get 28 miles to the gallon which is great. It gets the best fuel economy in its class. If you dont have one I suggest you look into it. Great car all around.

  an average car - 2003 Buick Park Avenue
  By tri-ble - December 24 - 2:00 am

  an easy ride and handling car. the doors are not a good fit to the body,noisy engine when first starting out .the colder it is the worse it sounds,gets better as it warms up... if the door problems are corrected and the noisy engine problem is soved we would like this vehicle a lot better and feel that we were getting our moneys worth. not a quiet enough car for the price
