It takes More than Quiet to Make Luxury

2007 Buick Lucerne CXL V8 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)
Review
Car was a dealer demo. I was sold based on a test drive. It was and remains very quiet and luxurious feeling in that aspect. However, the driver's seat left side molding cracked and broke of its own accord, with a quarter-sized piece popping off and landing in the driver's foot well. Now, two weeks later, it seems like the entire driver's door interior panel is trying to separate from the metal, with a give of at least an inch when closing the door. Two months ago, the OnStar stopped working on its own and took 3 tries to fix. Handling feels weird at 45 mph like Cruise is taking over on its own. Very disappointing all around and I wish I could have my Chrysler 300 back.
Favorite Features
Car is very quiet. Trunk space is good. Handles acceptably. OnStar is great when it works.
Suggested Improvements
All GM cars seem to use this cheap plastic that is not as rich as Chrysler's. Borrow a page from them, GM.
Best car I ever owned

2007 Buick Lucerne CXL V6 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)
Review
I have owned many cars in my life, but this Buick has almost everything, from the OnStar to a custom paint job. The comfort level is perfect and my mileage is 17 city 33 hwy. I can't wait to buy one for my wife.
Favorite Features
DIC, dashboard, comfort and controls. All the extras, including dimming mirror, leather, etc.
Suggested Improvements
Not much, maybe a higher front end and more 12v recepticals.
Not a Roadmaster "but"

2007 Buick Lucerne CXL V6 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)
Review
This is not my 95 Roadmaster but I didn't expect it to be. Mileage is a little disappointing with the 6 cylinder, 17-19 city 28.5 - 30.6 Highway excellent fit and finish, like the driver info center. plenty of leg room. head room when entering could be better.
Favorite Features
I like the quiet ride on the highway, lack of wind noise, engine noise, the individual comfort zones (heating & cooling) Has a lot of rear seat leg room, more than my Roadmaster
Suggested Improvements
Bad blind spots in front window posts, rear view mirror also causes blind spot, make some improvements to ease of entering and exiting.
Great Vehicle

2007 Buick Lucerne CXL V6 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)
Review
I own a 2003 Buick Park Avenue, and I bought the 2007 Lucerne CXL in February 2008 as a retirement vehicle. It only took one 400 mile trip to make me appreciate my Park Avenue, and be glad that I did not sell or trade it. I love the way the Lucerne handles on a rainy road; however, the seats are not comfortable, the gas mileage is poor, the entry and exiting process is a torture for me at 6' 2'', and left turns and parking are a chore. My long road trips will continue to be made in the Park Avenue. My wife can drive the Lucerne around town. I will only buy another Buick if they improve on the issues mentioned.
Favorite Features
Handling on rainy roads.
Suggested Improvements
Better gas mileage, redesign of doors and seats, better front and rear visibility

2007 Buick Lucerne CX 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)
Review
Bought new. Classy looks, smooth and quiet ride, fun to drive. Satisfied with gas mileage, e.g., 31mpg on highway and 19.5mpg suburban driving. Blind spots at center and front roof supports. DIC extremely helpful. Dimming mirror great for night time driving. Front seat lumbar supports too high. 'Had to buy seat pillows for driver and front passenger seats. Rear seats slanted too sharply, making it hard to get out...especially for elderly. OnStar system easy to use. Only one repair was needed in 14 months (steering).
Favorite Features
Smooth, quiet, comfortable ride, DIC; dimming mirror, good looks.
Suggested Improvements
To improve entry and egress, raise passenger seats a couple of inches and reduce seat angle at 5 degrees. An additional 12 volt receptacle. Reposition inside trunk release button.

2007 Buick Lucerne CX 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)
Review
Bought this car new over a year ago. Love the design, smoothness & quietness of ride. Get 18.5-20.5 mpg suburb driving and 27-31 mpg on trips. Reasonable pickup. Arrive at distant destinations rested. Somewhat difficult getting in and out, especially for elderly. Seating comfortable but non- adjustable lumbar support too high (I'm 5'll")and seat seems short front to back. A 2 1/2" seat pillow corrected the lumbar problem. Roof supports create dangerous blind spots that took six - eight months to accommodate. Inside trunk release button awkwardly located. After 14000 miles, no mechanical problems.

2007 Buick Lucerne CXL V6 4dr Sedan (3.8L 6cyl 4A)
Review
Bought this car one year old when my Avalon started acting up down in Florida. Drove 800 miles one day heading North, never could have driven that far with my Avalon and the horrible seats. This Lucerne is far superior to my old Avalon. Have had new Caddy's Saabs, and my Toyota Avalon, this is by far the best car I have owned!
Favorite Features
Rain sensing wipers, very comfortable leather seats, OnStar. Plenty of leg room something my Avalon did not have. Smooth ride. Great value for the money!
Suggested Improvements
Better city mileage

2007 Buick Lucerne CXS 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)
Review
The Lucerne CXS is a very quiet, comfortable sedan with decent handling. The ride is soft, smooth, but, predictable. We (and other riders) are impressed with GM's OnStar performance as well. Seats are comfortable and infinitely adjustable for tall or short drivers. The NorthStar V8 under the hood is a GEM, delivering quiet,smooth solid power. You get a Cadillac in sheep's clothing with the CXS. Road trips are a pleasure!
Favorite Features
Power passenger seat is equally adjustable as the driver. Ipod input on the radio. Quiet! Cushy w/o being a boat. Confident and powerful on the highway. Roomy back seat. Low trunk lid. Nice exterior design. Remote start. Lighted turn signals on side mirrors.
Suggested Improvements
Dash guages with their blue background are hard to read in daytime. No excuse for that! Getting in or out of the lucerne is harder than other sedans. Steering wheel is large and doesn't telescope. Drivers have to adjust the seat forward to get a comfy grip. Why have it tilt but, not telescope?

2007 Buick Lucerne CXS 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)
Review
Just turned 25,000 miles today. The computer says I should need my third oil change at around 30,000 miles. So far two oil changes have been 100% of all repairs and maint. Has not been to the dealer since the day I picked it up. How many Lexus owners can say that? While almost no one knows what it is (the styling is a little too bland) all agree it looks inside and out like a modern luxury sedan. Love the sound of the Northstar with dual exhaust. Even with my less than gental driving I average over 19 mpg. With $3.25 gas I guess I would probably buy the v-6 if I had to do it again however.
Favorite Features
Super comfortable expanded leather front seats. Never have a car without remote start again. Exhaust tone.
Suggested Improvements
Dash looks a little low end. Looks like an Impala dash board. Move the stearing wheels controls. Always hitting them inadvertantly.
