| Engines | ||||
| L27 | Engine, 3800 3.8L V6, multiport fuel injection | 1992–1994 | the naturally aspirated 3800 Series I, 170 hp; both years from Wikipedia's Buick V6 article, whose L27 application list gives the Ninety-Eight 1992–1994, first and last year alike; 1991 is left out because no source read dates this car's 1991 engine code (the Ninety Eight article says only that the naturally aspirated 3.8L V6 was offered in all years, and its infobox prints the slash form L27/L36); shared C-body code; cited from the Buick Park Avenue, whose Wikipedia article and the V6 article's Park Avenue entry give L27 to that sibling, but both are Wikipedia, so the row stays single-source; the description follows the merged buick/park-avenue-c-body doc | Single-source |
| L67 | Engine, 3800 3.8L V6, supercharged | 1992–1995 | Series I supercharged engine, 205 hp; Touring Sedan, and optional on the Regency Elite; 1992–1995 from Wikipedia's Buick V6 article (L67 Series I application list) and the Ninety Eight article's text, which dates the supercharged engine 1992–1995 and its 1996 removal; shared C-body code; the Buick Park Avenue article names it for that sibling, but it is Wikipedia, so the row stays single-source | Single-source |
| L36 | Engine, 3800 Series II 3.8L V6 | 1995–1996 | the naturally aspirated Series II, 205 hp, replacing L27 for 1995; both years from Wikipedia's Buick V6 article, whose L36 application list gives the Ninety-Eight 1995–1996, with the Ninety Eight article's 1995 text on the re-engineered 205 hp engine; shared C-body code; cited from the Buick Park Avenue, whose Wikipedia article gives L36 for 1995–1996, but it is Wikipedia, so the row stays single-source; the description follows the merged buick/park-avenue-c-body doc | Single-source |
