Review
I have had my 2013 Enclave for one month.
We just returned from a 3,000 mile trip to the mountains and the Enclave performed flawlessly.
It was so comfortable, quiet and efficient.
I had a 2010 Enclave I thought was great, but this car is much improved.
The transmission responds immediatly instead of hesitating and searching for gears.
I look forward to driving this car.
Kudos to Buick!!!!!!

This car was primarily for my wife.
She had been driving a Chevy Suburban.
It was doing a fine job hauling our family around (three children and two large dogs) on vacation or around town.
However, when it came time to replace the Suburban after 150+K miles, we switched to the Enclave.
It's one of the finest SUV for the money.
I highly recommend the Enclave, but the buyer should evaluate the touch screen and especially the Navigation system before they decide which vehicle to buy.
My wife has no confidence in the Navigation system and often resorts to using her smart phone Maps App to find her way around.

My wife and I were in search of a 7-passenger vehicle and searched high and low.
In the end, the refreshed Enclave offered everything we were looking for.

Have had our Enclave for 1 week and absolutely love everything about it. The interior is much more plush than the 2012 model. The quiet cabin is as advertised. The ride is so comfortable it is hard to describe. The led rope lighting on the doors and dash are classy. First time we got the articulating headlamps and this actually helps enlarge the area of lighting when turning. The rear entertainment system will be well used by grandkids.
The Intellilink is user freindly and awesome. The spaciousness for all 7 seats is impressive.

I'd like to congratulate the Buick team for bringing their product line out of the stone ages.
I left this company for dead.
I just bought a 2013 Enclave AWD, leather edition and all I can say is WOW.
The fit & finish is right up there with Lexus or Mercedes.
They didn't short cut as American manufacturers generally do.
I can't believe that this car is even American built.
The car handles great and the ride is smooth.
I especially love the Nav/electronics of the vehicle and it seems that Buick is up to date with these features.
The led rope lighting the circles around the top of the dash and front doors is a nice touch at night.

We have been pleased with this car.
My friend has an older one, and I am happy to have gotten the redesigned version shortly after it was introduced.
The transmission has been re-tuned to shift at higher RPM's, producing brisk and smoother acceleration.
I was only disappointed that the navigation system's font size is too small and cannot be adjusted.
This could be a safety hazard, since the small font makes it hard to read.

Back in 2008 the Buick Enclave was a work of art, a revolution in cross-over SUV vehicles.
Unfortunately, I do not feel the same about the 2013 Enclave.
Buick did add some features, but they also removed or downgraded some important things.
The big selling point of this vehicle was supposed to be the Intellilink system with enhanced
navigation, but then they made the touchscreen smaller than before? Other things like Pandora, Stitcher, Photoviewer simply do not work.
Are they really selling a $50,000 vehicle that isn't even compatible with an iPhone?
Are you kidding me?
There is also an occastional low rumbling noise in the engine manifold when the vehicle is idling at a stoplight.

I just leased a 2013 Buick Enclave with Intellink.
I had a 2010 Enclave and loved it.
The Intellink is all touch buttons including the Emergency Flashers located just under the radio. When
changing the radio I inadvertently touch the flasher button and turn them on . This happens daily. Fog lights are no longer available. I used them all the time.
You better check with Buick to see which Smart Phones will work with Intellink. It cost me $600 to purchase a new phone when after several days and phones call I found out my HTC Rezound would not pair up. The Iphone 5 will not either. Surprise!
Now that I bought a new phone Pandora still won't load.
