The Buick Special was Motor Trend
magazine's Car of the Year for 1962.
It was the first American car to use a V6 engine. Road & Track was impressed with Buick's
new V6, saying it sounds and performs
exactly like the aluminum V8 in most
respects. The Buick Skylark was also a
new model for Buick in 1962.
