Most people have and that's why the delicious flavor of JFG Special just nat urally brings out, with the first sip "That's what 1 ca'ii HEAL to* iee!" 4-door, 6-passenger Special Sedan. who just waked up Here in the driveway is a Buick. It has just arrived. It belongs to this proud young couple. They've just "arrived" too. They've arrived at a discovery? the discovery that owning a Buick instead of a "low-priced car" isn't so much a matter of money. It's a matter of knowing the facts of life. Buick prices are closer to the prices of smaller, less powerful, less distinguished cars than most people think. : Why don't you check into this? _ "You'll find you could pay $300 to $400 more ? and still not match the horsepower of this nimble beauty. | You could pay hundreds of dollars more? and still not get any more interior room, or richer fabrics. But that's only part of the story. The big thing about any car is the way it goes. So you ought to find out how this car rides the road? the freedom from bobble and sway that cost a million real dollars to develop. You ought to sample the way Dynaflow Drive* feeds the power ? with a steady swoop and unbroken smoothness in city traffic, on hills, or out on the open road. And you ought to know how it feels to touch off that Fireball 8 Engine. With all its might, this high-compression valve-in-head gets a lot of miles from a gallon of gas. We '11 tell you this? because a lot of folks have told us this: No matter what car you're driving now? no matter what cars you've looked at? they'll never seem the same after you try this one. Just give us a chance to prove it ? and you'll have a lot of fun.
