My "Silent Assassin"

By MD (PA) on Tuesday, January 29, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 138,800

Pros: "gas mileage, silent engine, trunk, sound system"

Cons: "driver side window starting to go up slowly"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"The "Silent Assassin" I call him does work. This car is by far the most reliable one I have had thus far (also owned a 1992 Buick Park Avenue & 2000 Chevy Malibu LS). I've had it for almost a year & only needed to do oil changes & a headlamp replacement. I've taken this car to Ohio & can easily get 30 mpg on the highway. Leather seats are comfortable, the Gran Touring package is great as its suspension is solid, trunk space is NICE, & it's a joy to drive, especially knowing that the engine remains silent no matter how I drive, so there is plenty of life. You gotta love the popular 3.8L V6 engine. The kids love riding in the back seat banging out to music with its amazing Bose sound system. I will have this car paid off by next spring & am contemplating on whether I will keep it or trade it in for the car I really wanted last year (luxurious 2004-2005 Hyundai XG350). Either way, I love this vehicle & will highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfy, reliable family car with great gas mileage & reputation."

The most reliable car i ever owned.

By Zander (NV) on Friday, January 25, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 116,400

Pros: "great fuel economy...a car you can just drive"

Cons: "transmissions a little weak for FWD"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"Purchased car with 42k on it in 06. Routine maintenance and this car runs like a top. The only major thing(if ya wanna call it that) was the improved upper intake that most all Buick 3.8 engines from this yr needed...drove it for 2mo. till I discovered it needed it. $40 part and back to smooth. Wish I had the model with the supercharger, but the regular 200hp engine is still very potent. Interior classy, great sound system, leather interior and auto dimming mirrors.. quite comfy! These cars get awesome fuel economy."

What a Car

By Lcpl (MN) on Saturday, October 20, 2012

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 132,000

Pros: "Fast, And sleek"

Cons: "Speed makes it handel like a grandpa car"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"My Grandfather boought this car Brand new in 1997. He passed away in 2008 and it sat in my fathers Barn until early 2012. Put a new battery in it and it started and ran like it never even had a four year nap. I only have a few qualms with this car, the first being the center cup holders. I dont know what buick was thinking, and maybe it was a last minute thing, But god are those cup holders cheap. The second issue i have is with the supercharger. I honestley cant tell if its boosting like it should, or if something is wrong. The boost gauge reads at the most 1.5psi. Maybe its just miss miss calibrated. Anyways, the car still feels fast. I wish it had a manual. That would make the car the most enjoyable car i have ever had the pleaseure of driving."
