Did they discontinue this model and if so does anybody know what it became. It was suggested it became the LeSabre but not sure. Any help will be great, Thanks

A great muscle car of the 50s, the 55 probably the most impressive (http://www.conceptcarz.com/vehicle/z12817/Buick_Super%20Series%2050/default.aspx)
In 1955 the Buick Super Series 50 sat atop a 127-inch wheelbase and was powered by an eight-cylinder engine which produced just under 240 horsepower. There were three body-styles offered, a four-door sedan with seating for six cost $2,875. The two-door Riviera Hardtop had seating for six and cost $2,880. This was the most popular of the Super Series 50 with 85,656 examples being produced. The two-door convertible with seating for six cost the most, setting the buyer back $3,225. These were the fewest produced of the series with only 3,527 examples being created.
It vanished in 58 with the 60 series coming in then. That was the Century.

You could say that the Buick Super BECAME the LeSabre, but since the LeSabre was a new model, with new designs, it is more correct to say that the Super ended in 1958.
