LeSabre was great. So is the Rainier

My 1988 LeSabre T Type was a fabulous car, and I hated to trade it in. But, it was time. A lot has changed in 16 years, and the Rainier has more gadgets and toys than I really need but I like them. Engine and transmission are very powerful and smooth. Handling is extremely agile. Braking performance is top notch. I traded a great performing vehicle for a new great performing vehicle. The interior and exterior styling are easy on the eyes, and very functional.

Excellent performance, quiet car. Very comfortable seating. Could use a few more storage places.

I love this SUV! I have owned it for 8 months now and have not had any problems. The ride is smooth. The features are excellent. I love the dual function heated seats and the in- dash 6 CD changer with XM radio. The sound system is incredible. Everybody that sees this SUV loves it. I get compliments on it all the time. I am planning on getting another one when this lease expires. I highly recommend it!!!

This vehicle is awesome. I could not be happier. Its fun to drive and comfortable on longer trips. I also have a '97 Lesabre that is still going strong. I got rid of an Expedition for this Buick Rainer and would do it again in a heartbeat.

Buick Hits Home Run

VERY smooth and quite ride. Handles well Agree with current owner, it could use more storage. Cross bars for roof rack should be standard. This seems a little cheap on Buick's part for a car in this price range. Same with front seat side air bags. Would love for it to have had the Buick famous icon (the three holes on the front quarter panels). This would have been the icing on the cake for exterior. Too new for reliability opinion. Only one defect at delivery. The console lock would not hold down the cover whne bumped. New lock clip was ordered.
