Overview & Reviews
With just one year of production under its belt, Buick is already making some substantial content changes to its Rendezvous model line. Instead of offering standard all-wheel drive on its upscale CXL model, both the lower-level CX and the CXL will now come with front-wheel drive, with Versatrack all-wheel drive available on both models. Other formerly standard items that are now optional this year include: four-wheel disc brakes, ABS, side airbags, all-speed traction control and luggage rack crossbows. On the upside, both models get dual-zone climate control. The CXL also benefits from an optional DVD-based entertainment system and optional XM Satellite Radio for extra enjoyment.
- Usable third-row seats that fold flat, comfortable ride, lots of options available.
- Paltry engine, swell-looking but cheap-feeling interior materials, options add up, no off-road ability, not as storage-space-friendly as a minivan.

Not Buick Luxury - 2003 Buick Rendezvous
By dickerd - April 17 - 10:00 amBought a new Rendezvous in February, am already looking to get rid of it. Buick quality does not stand behind this vehicle. Many little annoying things are wrong - slow clock, squeaky seats, speakers blow all the time. Cant believe this thing made it through the wind tunnel in the design phase - its the noisiest car Ive ever owned. Severe fluttering wind noise around the windows, dealer unable to locate or correct. Loud around the windshield due to design. Outside noise sounds like its inside the car! This car is not worth the amount theyre asking for it. If youre looking for luxury, look elsewhere.
