Overview & Reviews
The larger 3.6-liter V6 is now available on the front-wheel-drive CXL model, while the top-of-the-line Ultra is now offered in both front- and all-wheel-drive versions. New tire and wheel combinations round out the changes for 2005.
- Usable third-row seats that fold flat, comfortable ride, plenty of interior storage, refined 3.6-liter engine, good fuel economy.
- Weak standard V6 engine, good-looking but cheap-feeling interior materials, limited off-road ability compared to SUVs.

Overall great vehicle - 2005 Buick Rendezvous
By PV 13 - February 7 - 10:00 amThis is the most comfortable SUV that I have ever owned. I have driven the car for 10000 miles and I average 18MPG in the city & 24 on the open road. This SUV has had only oil changes and has never had any "new car bugs" to work out. It was perfedct from the day I got it. I get a lot of compliments about the looks of this vehicle. My only negative comment is that it could use a little more power, but the trade off is the great gas mileage it gets.

Great Gas Mileage - 2005 Buick Rendezvous
By National Renter - July 7 - 10:00 amI rented a Rendevous over the weekend for a short trip. While the seat belt for the driver was uncomfortable (it dug into my right hip), I was able to get up to 27 miles per gallon. It was had great storage space in the center console and there was ample room in back.

2005 Buick Rendezvous - 2005 Buick Rendezvous
By jmn4 - July 2 - 10:00 amI do a considerable amount of highway driving and this vehicle is just great. You sit up just high enough to provide good visibility and the interior is spacious and comfortable. Fun to drive, easy to part and I love the XM radio option.

My Third Rendezvous - 2005 Buick Rendezvous
By Tom Garove - January 12 - 10:00 amThe 2005 Rendezvous Ultra is my third Rendezvous that I have owned and exceeds my expectations set by my previous Buicks. It provides all of the comfort needed for long road trips and the power I need to pass slower traffic during expressway driving . Buick put a lot of thought into improving the interior features of the 2005 Ultra including the additional option of Captains chairs which I ordered on my vehicle. The added power of the new v-6 engine has provided me with the extra pwoer I felt I was missing in my earlier vehicles while not significantly sacrificing gas mileage.
