I have gotten more compliments on this car than any other car I have owned. I love the look, the ride and the luxury. Nicest car I have ever owned.

poor engineering

blind spot because of the large frame between roof line and dash. Dangerous with left turns. Also, poor design of drainage tubes or channels whatever they are called. Almost every time it rains hard, I have a puddle on the floor of the passenger side rear and have to blot it up with a towel. Twice I had it cleared with dealer to the tune of about $300 and it keeps happening so I live with it. Not what I want to do but can afford to keep going back to the dealer who admits they have no cure for this. I do. Don't but a Buick. I am sure the newer models have the same system so avoid this.

Bought it new and has been a great car. All the bells and whistles with good gas mileage and a great ride. No major maintenance issues at all.

All show no go

Had this Lacrosse for 4 months and I'm not impressed any more. Clumsy and noisy is how I would describe it. Here's the list, 1. Car rides fine until you go over a series of bumps. Hold on to your coffee if its open. 2. Knee and head protection may be needed if you want to enter or exit this car quickly. Very cumbersome. Turning in or out of your driveway may cause wiplash due to the stiff suspension. 3. A distinct and fairly audible metalic ticking noise from the engine. Dealership says it's normal, I say there's a problem. Engine shakes noticeably at idle (in drive). Accelleration and crusing is no problem. 4. Trunk space is way too small, tight fit for 2 sets of golf clubs.
