My Buick was purchased in May of 1999. I now have 100,000 safe, reliable miles on her with no problems of any kind. Great car!
A decent car

I really did like this car for the quality of driving, but I had serious problems with the electric windows. I replaced 3 of them within a year and my brother is now having to replace all of them again since buying the car from me. A very comfortable car. I would reccomend it to anyone. Just dont use the windows

My first car, my parents got it for me. As usual, not the choice I would have made, but Dad made the right one I must now admit. She's almost at the 100,000 mile mark and the only problem I've had was the breaks went on me, but even then it performed admirably and got me home safe. Pretty good handling and very forgiving, but it will also move when you tell it to. The overall exterior is designed more for a conservative buyer, but the unremarkable looks actually works to your benefit if you pass an officer of the law a little too much on the expeditious side, as opposed to doing so in a more aggressively styled car. Just do the routine maintenance and you should have no problems.
Buick has lost two customers for life

Problems, problems, problems. My wife purchased this car new and put 29,000 miles on it before we sold it. In that time frame the car needed to be repaired over sisteen times. Not the same thing every time, but different things on a regular basis. I'm not talking minor things either. Before this Buick we have only purchased GM products and have been well satisified with them. However when we purchased this one things changed. If you buy a new GM product and have problems, be prepared to get the run around. I strongly encourage you to look elsewhere, ther are better cars and companies to do business with.
Good Little Boring Car

This car is a great buy for someone who wants comfortable, cheap transportation. The amount of things you get on this car for the price is great. The 3.1L V6 is both powerful in the low rev range and gets good gas mileage. This is an old GM motor which has proven to be very reliable if a bit noisy. The styling is very boring on the outside but simple and well placed on the inside. Build quality is lacking as the body panels have big gaps and part of the ceiling has come down in the rear. The trunk and the interior are both spacious and comfy. Ride quality is pillowy soft but the tires are of very bad quality and make a lot of noise.
