This Year's Model Updates:

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.

Pros:
  • Interior room for six, huge trunk, torquey and economical V6.
Cons:
  • Fuddy-duddy image, no split-folding rear seat.

  • Alternator Noise/Bad Seats - 2003 Buick LeSabre
    By -

    Annoying alternator noise in cabin...Buick is aware of it but they are in denial and wont do anything about it. Trunk leak (common in LeSabres) and airbag module replacement in the first 5000 miles...other than this its ok. Need to upgrade General OEM tires. The fabric seats in the Custom are easily the worst Ive seen. Seat too small...not contoured well and they wrinkle and come loose. Ive replace drivers side covers already (ref to Bulletin)

  • Another Great Buick - 2003 Buick LeSabre
    By -

    The LeSabre is so quiet and drives like a dream. It has a great controlled ride its an improved ride over the 98 LeSabre with more control. But its still comfortable. Everything is located great and features are easily understood and used like the memory seats and mirrors. Its already hitting 29 mpg cruising and its only a few hundred miles old. The brakes are perfect in their feel. I am anxious to try out the self-stabilizing feature. I had considered a Park Avenue, slightly used or new, but this has been a great choice with many more options than I ever dreamed I would have on a car.

  • My Second LeSabre--Love it - 2003 Buick LeSabre
    By -

    Hi, This is the second LeSabre I bought. I liked the 2000 at lot, but the 2002 is much better. It rides great in sun, snow and rain. New driver computer system works very well, with the 2000 model I got a number of "false" errors that I had to take to the dealer with no repairs done. I have not had one thing fixed on this car since I bought it!

  • The Blue Buick - 2003 Buick LeSabre
    By -

    The Buick LeSabre is a car with much get up and go, offers good gas mileage, both in town and on the road. The driver information system is helpful and thanks for the dual trip meters. Its a comfortable vehicle and rides smoothly. The gagues, and knobs are easy to read and reach when needed. Ted Brinson

  • Excellent family car - 2003 Buick LeSabre
    By -

    This car is one of GMs best products. Quieter than some Cadillacs Ive driven, with very comfortable seats. Nice meaty engine that feels like a small V8. Interior is well laid out, lots of places to put things like parking access cards, maps, CDs, etc. Extremely practical in everyday use, large trunk, excellent sound system.

    This is an amazing car. It performs just as well as my Mazda Miata. You punch this pedal and the engine comes to life roaring.
