This Year's Model Updates:

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.

Pros:
  • Usable third-row seats that fold flat, comfortable ride, plenty of interior storage, refined 3.6-liter engine, good fuel economy.
Cons:
  • Weak standard V6 engine, good-looking but cheap-feeling interior materials, limited off-road ability compared to SUVs.

  • We got this vehicle for our grandkids. - 2005 Buick Rendezvous

    My wife and daughter looked at at least 8-10 other SUVs and this was the one they wanted. It rides like a full size car on the road. Great for the hold family, lots of room. This is a great vehicle. What you get for the money is out of sight. The engine is OK if you dont race, has a enought power for us. I will buy one again

    Moved up from a Skylark..love the Rendezvous 108 cu ft cargo-alot more room than the Lexus, Acura, or Magnum wagon. Got fully loaded CXL with sunroof for $24k. Is a good deal. No problems- rides like a luxury car and is fun to drive

    Seems to be very well built compared to other autos I have purchased, So far, Im very pleased with the overall quality and performance of this vehicle. It rides quieter then the Cadillac we also own.

    I love my Rendevous. I went to look at the Avalanche and fell in love with this one. The seats in the back recline some, both my boys have their own cup holder and storage place for change or games. And I can plug the cooler in to the plug in the back not drag it under the seats. Plenty of storage space also for trips. Even my chihuahua loves to go for a ride in it. Great vehicle.

    I used to own Ford Expeditions until I drove this Buick. I Love it. Rides as good as a Cadillac and gets good gas mileage. Even my husband enjoys the ride and he is strictly a Cadillac man.

  • Cant ask for more - 2005 Buick Rendezvous

    After my husband drove a Rendezvous for 18 months, we decided at the end of my Jaguar lease that it made sense for me to buy a Rendezvous. If 2 older people enjoyed driving a car from Baltimore to Florida without stopping overnight, it must be a great car. The cabin design is spectacular! Of course, it was designed by a female engineer!

    After buying vehicles year after year, I have finally settled on the Buick Rendezvous. With its comfort, easy handling, and good gas mileage, it is definitely the upcoming vehicle to watch out for. It is sporty and has the luxury of an SUV. This was a great choice for me.

    The 2005 CX base model Rendezvous has been an outstanding experience for me !! Smooth, quiet ride. Better gas mileage than many smaller vehicles. Gorgeous exterior -- especially from the front. My favorite thing is the way the dashboard lights up at night. The light-silver dials turn to black. All numbers and pointers light up in a green/blue teal. And there is a slight angelic white glow emminating from behind the anchor spot of the needles.

  • Review of my Rendezvous - 2005 Buick Rendezvous
    By -

    My past two vehicles were a Ford Explorer, then a Ford Expedition. I loved both, but when the family got smaller I didnt need all the room of an Expedition, so we looked for a comparable vehicle as far as looks and comfort. We tried the Rendezvous and fell in love. I have had it almost a month now and love how it drives, handles and the smooth ride. We got all the bells and whistles and we cant say anything bad about it. I LOVE IT!! Thanks GM for a great product.

    This is my 2nd Rendezvous, the 1st was a 2002 CX. I was so pleased with my first Rendezvous and its dependability that I purchased the 2nd with most of the bells and whistles". So far I have not been disappointed. I find the styling, features and construction to be top-notch. As for the most often complaint as to its underpowered engine, I have found no trouble in passing any car when I wish and this autos hill climbing abililty on the highway is unsurpassed. Unless you have a lead foot and are looking for a race car I think youll find its power more than adequate and you will get decent gas milage as a bonus. Take one for a test drive and I dont think youll be disappointed.
