LeSabre by Buick | Television Commercial | 1997

The Buick LeSabre is a full-size car made by General Motors from 1959-2005. For many years, the LeSabre was considered as a full-size car,[citation needed] carrying the lowest base price in the Buick lineup. Prior to 1959, this position had been retained by the full-size Buick Special model (1936–58); in 1959 the LeSabre replaced the Special, a nameplate that was reintroduced in 1961 for Buick's line of compact cars. The name originated with the 1951 GM Le Sabre show car designed by Harley Earl; that car is often mistakenly attributed to the Buick division, but in fact it was presented as a GM vehicle without reference to a specific GM division.[citation needed] Buick closely related their 1956-1957 models to the GM LeSabre by replicating the top section of the rear wing into their design.[citation needed]. The word LeSabre is French for sabre.
