The Buick 3.8L was amazing.  My dad had a Grand National and the power was insane.  There was an article called "sideways at any speed" and that was pretty accurate.  What perhaps amazed me most was how smooth the engine was in that car.  

One of my other dream cars is the 1989 20th Anniversary Trans Am because it was powered with the Buick Turbo V6.  

Hell, my grandparents' Park Avenue with the 3.8 n/a was no slouch.
