This car is quiet, powerful, well- built, comfortable, and an absolute joy to drive. The sound system is exceptional. The drive train is smooth, but gets the car up to cruising speed in a hurry. Mine is Black Onyx and is quite eye-catching. This is Buick as Buick should be - a premium car in every respect!
Excellent Auto

Drove auto across country two days after purchase. Excellent trip, comfort driving and riding. No complaints, good gas mileage, or 26 mpg. Driven locally since and same positive experience. Did not tire me out to drive.
Now that I've had it a while

I rated this car shortly after my purchase, and was optomistic about it. Now that I've taken it on a 3k trip, I have some opinion changes. While driving it through mountains at 75 mph, I found myself fighting the wheel. This car did not handle well on curves. I felt unsafe driving it. I also noticed that the turning radius is forever. I have trouble pulling into parking spaces because it does not turn sharply enough. It does have enough power but just handles poorly. The cruise feature is the best but I have turned off every other feature because of poor design. Exit/entry feature was designed by a chimp. Seat retracts on exit, but not on entry. If you dont lock this car it stays retracted.
Great car

The Lucerne is a great car. It is comfortable, has a roomy interior, enough power to satisfy me and not make me feel I can't get on the interstate without a problem. However, several small things have been a problem. The cup holder in the console is a dud. Can't see the heated seat lights in the daytime. The seats squeak and the remote trunk opener should not be in the glove box. Would I buy this car again? In a minute. I can overlook the small stuff because it is fun to drive, confortable and with only 2200 miles, problem free. The 3.8 engine is old technology, but if past history is any indication, it will run for ever withoiut a problem, and get decent gas mileage for a car this size.
A good choice for a large sedan

This car is comfortable and very quiet. It is a real performer on winding roads and on the highway. I have never driven a front wheel drive with practically so little over steer on sharp turns. GM engineers got this one right. Found it more confortable than the Avalone and Azera, maybe due to the longer wheelbase. Were I to do it again, I would have bought the V8. The gas milage on the V6 is not that much different, and you need a little more "spunk" for such a heavy car.
