CXL V8
Have owned this car for 9 months and put over 10,000 miles on it. Very reliable and comfortable. Nothing more than routine maintenance necessary so far. Plenty of power, great for long trips. Gas mileage could be better, but still good for car this size with V8 engine.
Affordable luxury
V-8 gives this vehicle quick response, with none of sluggishness in my previous Auroras. Tends to swerve a bit on quick turns or lane changes. Very roomy inside for all passengers front and back with firm but comfortable seating. Side vision is a bit obscured between the placement or width of the roof beams. Trunk release is awkwardly placed in glove box.
Way to go, Buick
We took delivery on Dec 15 and have driven 2000 miles since. We drove an Avalon and the Lucerne is way ahead in styling and equal or above in comfort. The rear assist for parking is very handy and being able to turn the heat on the back of the seat is very comfortable for a bad back. Everything is positive except for two minor details. The trunk release is very inconvenient to access in the glove box,and the placement of the compass needs to be back on the rear view mirror. Other than that I'd rate it a 10.
Buick has a winner
Owned this car for three months and love its handling, performance, and styling. If you can afford the extra money and the 2 less miles/gallon, the Northstar V8 is the only way to go. Much more refined than the 3.8 6 cyl. Also the speed sensitive steering with the V8 makes handling much better. Without it, the car's steering is too loose and gives the feeling of instability at higher speeds. Quietest car I've ever owned.
Fond of first American car in years
We find it a very quiet, responsive, comfortable car. No regrets. Just the gas mileage.
