Most comfortable car I have ever driven, hands down. Not much I don't like on this car , besides only being front wheel drive . The pickup and handling are tremendous, if icould keep 2 vehicles I would definitely hold on to it , but it's not the best work vehicle.

Beautiful looking vehicle that gets more beautiful as newer models decline in appearance. Remarkable 34 mpg on the highway.That's at 70 mph. 47,000 miles and the only problem, which is almost a maintenance item, was battery replacement at the 5 year mark. Incidentally the car can start utilizing the eco-system battery! My best friend bought a 2013 on my recommendation and has 87,000 miles with no problem. Three negatives-backing up visibility is horrible, getting in and out of drivers seat is tight(I'm 5'11" & weigh 185 pounds), and the trunk is small because of the eco battery. The V-6 listing is an error. This is an Eco-4 semi hybrid.

I love the color, love the look, the interior is pretty. Looks, that is about all this car has. I also own a 2006 Lacrosse. This 2012 doesn't come close. It doesn't shift very smoothly. The ride is ok, but it is loud. It sounds like I'm in a wind tunnel. It is comfortable, but the seats are narrow. A car seat or booster seat in the back doesn't fit well. It sits on top of the seatbelt button. I don't like the shift and the arm rest is akward with the gearshift so far back. The door locks, park break are in the center, no trunk button. Probably won't keep this one.
