This is aBuick Electra Park Avenue Ultra 4-doormade in 1989 by General Motors Co. I purchased this vehicle in November 2011 from a small dealership in Wheatfield, ndiana. I have not had any crashes with this vehicle for the whole duration in owning it. From some research, he Buick Electra Park Avenue Ultras were one of the last groups of car modelsmade in the USbefore General Motors stopped production of this model in 1990, hich rendered thiscar model obsolete. The car also features an unusual spoiler built into the top of the trunk with a brake light in the center. From the research done, could not find any reference to the cars having them incorporated.
