But too often they start with a lesser car first from a feeling that BuieUs arc something you have to build up to gradually, as your take home pay improves. So if you have any such notion we'd like to set you straight, right here and now. Tlmi don't have to hope and dream and wait. If you can afford a new car the first car you buy can be the Buick Special pictured here. Its price tag says so. Its low cost of operation says so too. We know that it looks like a lot of money. That's what makes it such a buy. Yc know that it has a long list of features found in costlier cars, and that it rides and handles like cars that sell for a great deal more. But that simply means that at its price you're getting a very big money's worth. Allot which adds up to one conclu sion: the smart thing to do is come in and give this neat and nimble new Special a thorough going-over. Try out its power-the power of its high-compression, valve-in-head Fireball Engine. Try out its ride and handling and you'll discover it has the "big-car feel" that you'd expect from a Buick. Try it out for size for room for comfort -for all the things that you've dreamed someday of having in a car-and you'll thank your stars that you found out the facts of life in time.
