We bought our 2012 Lacrosse with around 48k miles and with all the bells and whistles which is why I also reluctantly bought an extended warranty. Ours is the touring model and very fun to drive. I'm 215 lbs and 6'3" and I fit fine in the driver's seat which is very comfortable. I thought I loved the dash with all the buttons but I still have trouble fining the right button when needed. It's my wife's car so she doesn't have this problem. The car feels nimble and responsive and is very powerful with just over 300hp and really is fun to drive. Visibility is good except for the large A pillars which will sometimes hide traffic. Love the turn sensitive headlights. We now have around 115k miles on the car and we've had the transmission replaced under the extended warranty. Also, a few oil leaks and we needed the power steering hoses replaced. I do not like the tranny on this car... .or at least the mapping. Even under normal or slight acceleration, the RPM's go into the 5k range when shifting from 1st thru 3rd. Other than those few things, we love the car. We have our fingers crosses that something else expensive doesn't break.

front doors holding water

i have had this car scene 10/12, i have had the issue of the front door holding water in the seals that go around the door, the doors will hold the water until you open the doors, after it rains and you open the doors, check the seals and have water inside the seals. as of today, the dealer and the factory has told me that this is normal ( i call ???? on this ) We are in the process of have GM buy the car back. So if you have a Lacrosse, check you front doors.
Poor visibility

I love cars....new cars, antique cars I love all cars. I enjoy driving any type of car. My parents have a new Buick Lacrosse and the visibility is nothing short of awful. I absolutely do not like driving it. There are blind spots everywhere. I cannot believe that a car company would design a car that is unsafe to drive. If I am at a stop sign several seconds pass before I have visibility of a full sized car or truck coming from my right. I have to lean forward and backward to avoid that blind spot. There is no way of viewing a car when merging or changing lanes except with the side mirror. If I look over my left should all I see is the b pillar and the c pillar and a tiny slit.
Nice car!

I love this car. I love to drive it and know it gets the looks. It is quite a fast car and stylish, quiet, and had nice tech as well. With On Star and Sirius XM, there's not a lot that can be added to it. I agree with the small trunk though. Test drive one and you won't care that it offs now 8 years old!
