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.

  My wife loves it - 2005 Buick Rendezvous
  By Austin Girl - January 6 - 1:40 am

  My wife looked at oved 15 vehicles before she chose the Buick Rendezous. She liked the looks of the vehicle and the way it drives. It not too small and not too large for city traffic. Also its a very safe vehicle for our two grandkids to be in. Thats another reason she got the Rendezous

  Buick reliability - 2005 Buick Rendezvous
  By RLA - January 5 - 10:51 pm

  I have only owned this vehicle a short time. It is pleasant to drive, and very comfortable. The radio works well, as do the power windows seat and other amenities. Not purchased for going off road. I do not desire an off road vehicle, I already have one. This is a very nice family vehicle. It was reported that the standard V6 does not have adequate power. I have been out on the interstate with this one and it runs fine, its not a race car but thats not what I purchased. If I wanted a sports car I would buy one.

  By Chris Bernhard - January 5 - 9:21 am

  the interior, and driving my fathers 1993 Regal with 175,000 miles sold me. Buicks seem to last forever. Quality on them are only second to Cadilac.

  Best car I have ever owned - 2005 Buick Rendezvous
  By sam0616 - January 1 - 2:48 pm

  This is by far the best care/SUV I have ever owned. I have previously owned a Dodge Shadow, Subaru Imprezza, Infiniti G20 and Nissan Maxima. I traded the maxima in for this. I have never before felt like driving everywhere as I do with this car. It gives me the security and safety of driving an SUV and the smoothness and stability of driving a car. I love the roominess without the bulky look of a truck or corny look of a minivan. The gas mileage is just as good, if not slighly better, than my Maxima, which is very impressive. Overall, I think this is a best bet for someone looking for the feel of a minivan, ride of a car and look of an SUV.

  A Great Crossover Car - 2005 Buick Rendezvous
  By amers521 - January 1 - 12:57 pm

  My husband and I were searching for a family car and after test driving a variety of other SUVs we found the Rendezvous to be the best value. It was not only much more comfortable than any other SUV we test drove, but had a lot more cargo room and passenger room. We had a wonderful experience at the dealership purchasing our Rendezvous and couldnt be happier with our choice!

  Fantastic car - 2005 Buick Rendezvous
  By Ray Walters - December 20 - 10:55 pm

  I have purchased many new cars but have never been so totally satisfied with any car as I have with this Rendezvous. Of course we would always want better mileage but, other than that, this car is a ten all the way. The Navigation system, On Star, built in cell phone, heads up display, back-up sensor, foldup seats, etc - all make this car of the future here today.

  Rendezvous a womens dream - 2005 Buick Rendezvous
  By mercedes - November 21 - 10:00 am

  The car has it all. Plenty of storage from shopping to hauling around future NBA stars. The look is smart without being stuffy. You can easily see Rendezvous in a middle school parking lot as a student limo to a quality dinner with friends. No hiding this vechile down the street.

  Great - 2005 Buick Rendezvous
  By Dorohtea M. Barger - October 30 - 11:16 am

  My car is a 2002, the leather seats are a fine quality, I dont think they should have given it a poor quality rating. I like my vehicle and would consider buying another one. When people ask me about my vehicle I highly recommend them to buy one. I do wish it had more leg room in the second and third row. I also would like if it had better gas mileage. Also, if the On Star had a phone you could take out of your car so you wouldnt have to have a cell phone with one number and your On Star with another number.

  Mr TOM URCIUOLI - 2005 Buick Rendezvous
  By THOMAS URCIUOLI - January 24 - 10:00 am

  VERY STYLISH APPEALS TO YOUNG AND OLD. HANDLES LIKE A BABY CARRIAGE. USES MORE GAS THEN EXPECTED, BUT ENGIN IS SMOOTH AND QUIET. DRIVING BUICKS SINCE 1959, ALL NEW, AVG 5 YEARS THEN TRADE IN. THE LAST 3 WERE LEASES. IM FEARFUL THIS IS MY LAST, DUE TO HIGH PRICES AND FIXED INCOME. HOWEVER IF YOU NEED A CROSS BETWEEN SUV AND SEDAN THE RANDEVOUS IS THE CAR FOR YOU.
