    I love my LaCrosse. At this point, I would consider another one when my lease is up. Dont change the exterior design. It is beautiful. Would like car designers to take into consideration minor interior changes for the next model year that would add more comfort for a shorter person (52). The LaCrosse is geared more to taller people. See comments below. I love the smooth acceleration and the quiet cabin.

    I have had my La Crosse for about two months and have driven it almost 5,000 miles. It handles beautifully and has the quietest ride of any vehicle I have owned in the last 30 years. I have had no need for warranty work at all. I am very pleased with this automobile.

  • LaCrosse is Very Good - 2005 Buick LaCrosse
    By -

    Negatives are few and mostly unimportant: engine is noisy on outside of car outside mirrors cannot collapse seatbacks recline by lever instead of power no tire pressure indicators (bad oversight) Overall mpg with a 75/25 city/hwy ratio is only 17 mpg (EPA rating is 20- 29). Thats it! Car is very quiet, has excellent buttoned-down ride, excellent driveability, very good acceleration, esp. at highway speeds and is a pleasure to drive. Fit and finish are excellent, and we like the styling and the interior layout - its clean. In short, we are very pleased with the 2005 Buick LaCrosse.

  • I like the car - 2005 Buick LaCrosse

    The auto rides very smooth and quiet. It is very comfortable to sit in and drive. I do not like the insert for ignition key. It is hidden. It has plenty of room for all to sit in.

  • LaCrosse - quiet ride - 2005 Buick LaCrosse
    By -

    The Buick LaCrosse has a very good feel for the road without making you think youre in a tight suspension sports car. The quiet ride is the most impressive of any car I have ever driven. You simply cannot hear other cars going by. The hands-off phone system lets you make phone calls by speaking rather than holding a cell phone to your ear. Compared to similar models from other companies, the LaCrosse is a bargain in the mid 20 thousand dollar range. Drive it before you buy a Honda, Toyota, Nissan or Acura.

  • Incredible bargain in a used car - 2005 Buick LaCrosse

    The 3.8 v6 engine is bulletproof. Not sporty handling, but smooth and comfortable!

  • LaCrosse is luxury and comfort - 2005 Buick LaCrosse

    Great for safety, has highest rating Insurance only went up $3.00 due to this. The car has double steel doors and double windshield glass. The engine slides under the dash on impact.

    This car has been fun, comfortable, and easy to learn how to drive. The seats are great. We drove to Florida and back with no discomfort at all. It handled the road like a charm. We got between 29 and 33 miles per gallon. I just love it.

  • Best Bang for Our Bucks - 2005 Buick LaCrosse
    By -

    After owning several GM cars, including a 99 Regal LS, the CXS is all I hoped it would be. Worth the money, especially as we compared it to more expensive vehicles. Drove from upstate NY to Florida one week after purchase, and loved the smooth ride, acceleration, quiet, handling, roominess, trunk space, and what a great 6 CD Concept III sound system! The exterior style and finish (Glacier Blue) are terrific. Leather seats w/ heater provided comfort even for the one 12 hour driving day. Temp system is big improvement over Regal. Safety, reliability and great style big plusses. We looked at other competitors (Mercury Montego, Saab, Honda) and know the CXS has them all beat.

  • Best Buick since the Park Avenue - 2005 Buick LaCrosse
    By -

    I really enjoyed driving this new Buick. It is really quiet and very responsive. I like it better than the Park Avenue I traded in.
