  • An awesome, upscale joy to own! - 2008 Buick Enclave
    By -

    Lots of research went into our choice of the Enclave. We have not been disappointed! It is a joy to drive, offering super quiet interior and ride, plush CXL leather seating, Bose speaker system, handles fantastic on the road. We towed our boat this weekend, and it handled it better than my previous SUV, hands down. A lot of thought went into this vehicle. Were getting better than stated gas mileage, which is a nice surprise!

  • Excellent American car - 2008 Buick Enclave

    Ive had this vehicle for about a month and have driven 2300 miles. Everything about it is a joy. This replaces my Acura TL. The Buicks quality is superior to Acura. No rattles, no issues. Its the most comfortable car Ive ever had. If GM pays attention to design and quality like it did with the Enclave, it will begin to compete again.

  • Wow ! What a car.. - 2008 Buick Enclave

    Goodbye Honda Pilot - work horse. Hello Enclave - luxmobile ! Everyday enjoy it more and more. Spacious, very quiet, smooth ride, handles very nicely, and has lots of admirers - strangers just stopping to take a look or ask about it. Loving it.

  • Never buy a minivan again! - 2008 Buick Enclave
    By -

    This vehicle is really impressive. I think GM has finally got it right. The vehicle is so comfortable, with so many nice features. You have to drive a Lambda based GM before you buy another SUV, crossover, or minivan.

  • Style, comfort, performance from USA - 2008 Buick Enclave
    By -

    I was always looking at imports but held off buying once I saw the concept for the Enclave. Glad I waited. Love the comfort, ride, many features. Even my 54" wife is liking it despite its size. The backup camera makes it easy to back up without fear of hitting anything. We have put 7,000 miles on it in 3 months.

  • Quiet, attractive, attention getter - 2008 Buick Enclave
    By -

    This car is very quiet. Its like stepping into a bank vault. Several people have stopped us and asked what the vehicle is. They like the chrome. I particularly like the remote start feature and the power lift gate. Mileage has disappointed so far, but isnt a major drawback. The shifting is not noticeable at all. This is an incredible car. Its nice to see it being driven by young adults. It certainly is an affordable alternative to higher priced suburbans or other traditional suvs.
