I have total confidence in this car. It has been 100% reliable. I would have no problem driving my chariot anywhere in the USA. I absolutely love this car. It's as American as it gets. The V8 is pretty quick. I love it even though certain repairs are expensive. I have never been stuck on the side of the road. It's never failed to start. It uses a lot of premium gas but I don't care!

First 100,000 Miles

My first 100,000 miles in this Buick Lucerne CXL have been a truly awesome experience. I changed a rear tailight bulb...and that's it! The only normal wear items have been 1 set of tires and brakes. Great mileage at an average in the mid 20's but 28 on the highway at 70. Not bad for such a large car. The V6 is absolutely bulletproof with a long history for reliability. Motor is adequate, but at 197 horsepower we're at the low end of acceptable. The plus side is endless quiet cruising ability. Brakes are very good. My wife's Infiniti lives at the dealer, but we can always rely on the Buick. I'm looking forward to the next 100K....unless I buy a 2010 Buick Lacrosse!
Love it, buying another

Comfort in the back seat for clients. Comfortable seats Love driving it but have to watch my speed. It's a smooth drive & you don't realize how fast you go. Nice design. Been stopped & had people comment on it.

I bought this car used with 47,000 miles on it and have driven it 27,000 miles in one year. It has a very quiet ride and decent acceleration for a V6 powered boat of a car. Gas mileage on the highway ranges between 25-26 mpg in the winter to 27-30 in the summer. In town? 18-19. Not that great. The stock radio went to the recycle yard right away. I had to turn it up pretty much to the extent of it's volume to hear. Chucked it for a Pioneer aftermarket and that solved the sound issues. The drivers seat isn't the most comfortable and the lack of a telescoping steering wheel doesn't help. Trunk space and lack of a true fold down rear seat are also drawbacks.
i would buy it again

I have had my 2006 lucerne cxs since 2006 . bought it with only 20,000 miles on it. It has now 198700 miles. it has sport suspensions which makes it a smooth ride even on a rough surface roads. 180,000 miles just replaced the shocks and struts. 190,000 new water pump, it's a great highway car, i could drive it 14 hours straight and not get tired. around town 23 mpg.and 31 highway. I'll call it a luxury sports car. with magna ride and magna steering. great car and buick shouldn't have stop making it.
