Try the Perfect Automobile - A Buick!

It's everything I would want and expect in an automobile of this caliber and reputation and More! The sales-personnel are not pushy or overbearing, but very polite, helpful, informed about their product and personable.

Great value

I bought a very nice pre-owned 2012 Premium 3 with 37,000 miles. Getting a lot of car for the money! Powerful, smooth V6. Great highway handling, smooth yet taut. Very classy styling with a hint of sport. Great features, I strongly recommend a Lacrosse for a nice family car/highway cruiser!

My dream car

I purchased this car for comfort, style, price and performance. I fell in love with it during my test ride, I have always like the Buick and this has been a wonderful purchase. No road noise, going over bumps are smooth, no real repairs needed. Regular maintenance is all that I have had to so since 2012 when I purchase the car in late September. I use flex fuel in this car and don't pay much to keep it filled. Flex Fuel costing less than $1.70 a gallon.

New Purchase - very happy

Just purchased a 2012 LaCrosse Premium II AWD this past weekend. After much research on AWD sedans I came down to several choices and settled on the Buick. I heard a lot of mixed reviews on the Fusion and the Cadillac CTS interior was too small in my opinion and the I am not a Subaru guy (I'm sure they're great) but the Buick is a great family vehicle for the 4 of us (2 kids aged 8 and 9) with some nice creature comforts for my daily commute. Very early in my ownership but extremely satisfied with my purchase. Drives like a dream, quick, comfortable, great looking in my opinion. I can't speak to reliability yet but I'll update later. I bought the 6 cylinder and read many mixed reviews on the mileage but was quite relieved to find that when driven normally it's pretty good. During the 110 mile drive back from the dealer I set the cruise to 77 and averaged 29mpg which included the hills of Western PA. Getting about 23 around town. It's my first GM purchase after years of driving all of the Japanse and German brands and I can say that GM is back in the game.
