Differance in GM models?
What is the differance between the Lesabre <mid 90'* era> and the park avenue <same era>. Does the lesabre usually have less toys? Differant markets?

92-95 lesabre/park avenue had the same front clip, but past the b pillar they were different.. 96 park avenue saw a face lift, and in 97 model year saw a complete redesign inside and out. the le-sabre used the same basic unibody from 92-99 however, updates in 96 were plastic lamps, different tails, cladding, interior trim.. otherwise they're pretty much the same.

just curious. looking at both a 93-94 lesabre and a 97 avenue ultra. second might be out of my price range though. any common failures? or typical 3800 stuff?

PA has a longer wheelbase (C-body is a stretched H-body) The PA is more luxurious on the inside also.

Window regulators seem to be better in the back, but the front ones have problems.
Other than that, the 97+PA should be about the same as the 00+Bonnie body and suspension-wise, and of course the engine is the same as the same year Bonnie, with minor wiring and vacuum differences.

actually, i told my dad about the '97. he may jump on it, would get it for possibly $4k after trading in the SHO. i hear the lesabre is actually another park avenue. would be funny if we switched from a ford to a gm family
Will check it out tomorrow...
BTW, dad put in an application for financing on the ultra, we'll see what they say. his credit leaves much to be desired
