Superbuick is the second studio album by American heavy metal band Mushroomhead. It was released independently in 1996. Most of the songs were later remastered on XX which was initially released through Eclipse Records, then through Universal Records after some slight modifications and two additional songs. This is their first album with Pig Benis on bass and the last with DJ Virus on samples/programming. Previous bassist (and Pig Benis' brother) Mr. Murdernickel has songwriting credits for a few tracks, as revealed when the songs were recorded and released again for XX.

The album was repressed in 2002 along with their self-titled album and M3, though some major retailers do not carry them. All three can be purchased at live shows.

To commemorate the album's 20th anniversary, a special one night only concert was held at the Agora Theatre on September 17, 2016, where the band played the album in its entirety. Digipack and vinyl pressings were also produced the same year to commemorate the album's anniversary.
