Very Comfortable, reliable, visually appealing car
I bought my 1995 Buick LeSabre Custom at a charity auction in October of 2017 with 96k and only 1 previous owner for $700. I did have to stick a battery in it, cut and splice a fuel line, and replaced some bushings in the front right corner. At 100k i flushed all the fluids and rotated the tires. Overall the car runs and drives flawlessly. By far the most comfortable car I've ever driven. Highway cruising is awesome, i get close to 30 mpg. 3800 Series 1 with tuned port injection, 170hp, 4t65-E transmission shifts very smooth and power delivery is smooth. Does not accelerate like a sports car, but maintains a good amount of power throughout the rev-bands being a 23 year old car. It is now approaching 101k, and i did have to patch the back passenger side wheel-well after a hole rusted straight through to allow water to run through it and into the backseat. I have since patched it myself and have not had a problem since. I would highly recommend this car to someone who wants an extremely reliable car that is cheap and easy to maintain, however it is by no means a sports car.

Thanks Unk!
I recently inherited my uncle's car. At first, I was a bit underwhelmed. I could still smell the smoke from Unk's pipe. The car was in incredible shape. Not even 38000 mile! I decided to drive it arround a bit before I sold it, and I was hooked! It rode great and the handling was better than I thought it would be. It was like new inside. I decided to take a long Sunday drive in it and was impressed at the performance of the engine and yet the very resonable mpg (28.6). Well, needless to say, I'm keeping it. It is no head turner, but it is a very comfortable ride and very roomy. Thanks again, Unk!
A pleasant old-school sedan
I bought the LeSabre because its fairly comfortable and reliable for a much more affordable price that used foreign-brand models. So far I've been pretty happy. The acceleration is adequate (tho probably not as good as more recent models). The cloth seats are soft but fairly supportive, though the interior design is a bit antiquated. Reliability has been with the only repairs being a throttle ($200) and water pump ($300), and new front brake pads. The styling may not be exciting, but its timeless and classy. (the 2005 model doesn't look too much different). The handling is below-average and parking in urban areas is not fun. Overall not bad for a decade-old Detroit dreadnought.
LeSabre Review
Trustworthy vehicle even with high miles.
Great car for Cheap
Bought for $8,000 with 54K miles on it, now it has 149K miles and is still running strong. Only one repair at 110K ($400 total) for coolant pump and intake manifold (imagine that! A GM with a bad coolant pump or a bad intake manifold!!!) Never broke down, just leaked coolant and took it in when it got real bad. Only oil and tire changes otherwise. Everything on this car works great, never has had any alignment work and still rides as smooth as day it was bought. AC and heat still work great and AC hasn't even been recharged. The only thing that has stopped working is the tape player, it has a tape stuck in it but who hasn't been replaced because radio is preferred and who uses tapes today?
