Overview & Reviews
To recognize the Buick LeSabre's successful 10-year sales record as the best-selling full-size car in America, and to celebrate Buick's centennial anniversary in 2003, Buick has added a new trim option for the LeSabre Limited model. Buick's product planners must have been feeling particularly creative when they named it; it's called the Celebration Edition. It features a new monochrome emblem, a blacked-out grille and license plate pocket and two new premium paints, Crimson Pearl and White Diamond. Additional Celebration exterior bits include body-color lower fascias and rocker moldings, turn-signal indicators in the side mirrors and new 16-inch chrome-plated aluminum wheels. Interior refinements are limited to two-tone leather seating and Black Cherry wood grain trim. It also includes a number of otherwise optional features, such as StabiliTrak. The rest of the LeSabre line is pretty much unchanged, with the exception of XM Satellite Radio, which is a new option on the Limited, and side-impact airbags, formerly standard on all LeSabres, are now optional on Custom models.
- Interior room for six, huge trunk, torquey and economical V6.
- Fuddy-duddy image, no split-folding rear seat.

Great on freeway - 2003 Buick LeSabre
By seniorone - August 8 - 2:00 amThe only thing I can say is I traded on Friday and left on a 2500 mile trip on Monday and loved the ride. I did have a problem with the cruise control. It pops off and sometimes will not come on. I have an appointment to get it repaired. Lots of room and ave. approx 30 miles per gal. Hard to beat in a car this size. Wish I had bought a Buick last time I got a new car.

2003 Buick LeSabre - 2003 Buick LeSabre
By sTRAYDOG - July 18 - 2:00 amDrives and rides very good in my opinion It is big enough that no one picks on it A couple of minor defects were immediately taken care of at my convenience. It has a lack of cup holders. The one it does have holds only small cups The gas mileage is not what I was told to expect. They claimed 29 + on highway. I claim 25 is stretching it. Clock cannot be read.

American Disappointment - 2003 Buick LeSabre
By Ramius - July 3 - 2:00 amThough the LeSabre has some appealing features, Im disappointed to find it continues to have many long-time shortcomings. Specifically: the A/C doesnt provide cold air, and had trouble cooling the car in an 85-degree day. The legroom for this 64" person is pathetic for a big car. There is no height adjustment on the seatbelts, making them ride too close to my wifes neck causing discomfort(this is downright embarrassing, Buick). I still have to slam the trunk for it to close just like in my fathers Buick of 25 years ago(which I hated even then when I was too young to drive). The sound from the stereo was muddy at best.

2000 and 2003 LeSabre Limited Comparison - 2003 Buick LeSabre
By Chicocat - July 2 - 2:00 amI previously drove a 2000 LeSabre Limited until purchasing the 2003 LeSabre Celebration Edition with all of the options. I have been happy with both vehicles, but there are some aspects of each I would rate differently. The 2000 Limited model had a more attractive interior & more comfortable & softer leather seats. The 2003 model has somewhat better handling and more features, such as side mirror turn signals & chrome plated wheels. The audio components on the 2003 model are much better, especially the XM radio & RDS options.

jAANA F MEEKS - 2003 Buick LeSabre
By MEEKS - June 25 - 2:00 amI purchased my 2001 LeSabre approximately 16 months ago. It has been a real pleasure - not to mention excellent gas mileage. I wouldnt consider any car other than a buick.

A great ride - 2003 Buick LeSabre
By Horsetrader - May 24 - 2:00 amI experience a distinct vibration on the steering wheel, dashboard, front seats,brake pedal. This occurs at slow (2-3) mph and stoped with motor running in idle and transmission in drive. Put i in Neutral snd vibration eases. I have had it in for service 4 times and service manager says this is normal. I have drove ford 4cylander and oldsmobile 6 cylander. Both with no vibration. I have complained to Buick Company but they give me no hopes that they can fix the vibration. They(Buick) promised to write me a letter of explination. I am on verge of filing with the Florida Lemon Law.

Great Quality - 2003 Buick LeSabre
By LeSabre Owner - March 31 - 2:00 amThis car has no rattles, no noise, no creaks. Its as quiet as my 98 Limited. Its great driving it. The suspension is perfect at 3000 miles. Its a Park Avenue at a lower price. Everything has been well-designed to work without anything negative to it: the cupholders are better than 98 LeSabre (front and back both now), the radio controls have real knobs for tuning and volume and theyre in steering wheel too. The auto temperature air conditioning works great, just like the other car.

Riding in style - 2003 Buick LeSabre
By Clover - February 2 - 2:00 amMy 4th Buick with my last being a 1997 which was more quiet than this 2003. The engine seems noisey when accelerating. Alernator has a whining sound that is very annoying and needs to be fixed by GM. My dealer said they are working on it. As for reliability that remains to be seen.
