Quote from Original Literature

1958 Buick Sales Flyer
At prices just topping Buick's thrifty Special Series, the 1958 Buick Century Sedan (Model 61) harnesses the full power of Buick's mightiest engine to the agile and highly maneuverable Buick 122-inch wheelbase-giving a power-to-weight ratio that's a honey in any performance lover's language. Teaming up with this great new powerplant is the eye-wink obedience and silk-smooth response of an advanced new Variable Pitch Dynaflow. And along with all of this comes the rock-firm solidity, easy handling and wondrous comfort of Buick's Miracle Ride. On every score-and particularly for the many luxury features that come with its brilliant performance-the Century takes top honors for prestige in its field again in 1958.
