Love my car. Rides smooth and is very quiet. Classy looking interior for the price.

We have always had an Olds or buick and the 2009 Buick LaCrosse is fabulous. It is luxurious and very roomy with an incredible trunk. It's fun to drive and extremely comfortable and we got 29 MPG on a highway trip. I agree that we need to "Buy American". We always have and hope to continue in the future!

Bought our car, in Flint, Michigan, left for our winter home in Arizona, and what a ride! We had forgotten how wonderful it is to drive and ride in a Buick. We took it in and got it all "gussied, " up and wow is it cute! It is not only pretty it is sharp! Added a sharp spoiler and now it's even more sharp. I get a kick out of tTger's commercial, "a Buick was always a car for my parents age." Well that fits us but this Buick of ours is not 1970! It is a ride that has no competition, and the 2008 we purchased, more than surpasses any other car on the road.

Won't be buying a Buick again...

I paid too much for a car that literally started giving me problems a few months after buying it!! The air bag light is always going on and off, the fobs only worked for a short period of time, my lock system doesnt work in the car, and now I have put so much i to this car in fuel injectors it isnt funny!!!!! Dont get me wrong, its a beautiful car, I love a lot about it... BUT... Reliability is a MUST with me, and I can sadly say, this has been the highest maintenance car I've ever owned!! I highly doubt I'll be buying a Buick again... I'll just go back to my Subaru!!

Great Car - Bad MPG

I love the car's handling and the ride. It's sharp and when I step on the gas pedal it is powerful. A car you can get into trouble with on the highway very easily. Great for long trip! However, as others have said, it doesn't live up to the posted MPG. I get 5 miles less in the city and 2 miles less on Hwy. A real gas hog.
