  Back to Buick! - 2001 Buick LeSabre
  By Tommy Gee - April 16 - 6:35 pm

  I had a Lincoln Continental which was a nightmare! I found this one at a dealer and dumped my piece of crap Lincoln and 3K for this car. It had 81K on it. This was a one owner car that was well taken care of. The Carfax was spotless and the car was dealer serviced. I have had great performance from the Buicks I have owned and this one is a peach! I am an outside salesman so reliability and comfort are a big deal. So far, So Good! Has all the options I love for long trips, and after adding satellite radio Im very happy. The ride is a little stiff at times but a minor issue. And the cup holders are in the wrong place on the arm rest. Again, minor. Overall a beautiful car! My goal is 250K!

  Fabulous Car - 2001 Buick LeSabre
  By Smurf87 - July 5 - 6:50 pm

  I bought my LeSabre in January 2008 with 95,000 miles on it. I was skeptical about buying a car with such high mileage but I just fell in love with its design inside and out and the performance was not what I was expecting. Its the Custom model so it doesnt have OnStar, leather or some of the other features I would have liked. Regardless it has more luxury than I need. Handles very well in the snow and is a lot of fun to drive, especially on the highway. The engine is powerful, accelerates quick, and is very reliable, yet fuel efficient. Very comfortable seats and enough features to keep one comfortable and safe (antilock brakes & 4 air bags) regardless of the length of the trip.

  This isnt Your Grandmas Car! - 2001 Buick LeSabre
  By Babs - April 12 - 8:34 pm

  The only time I really replace a car is when theres an accident, or in 1 case, stolen. So, after my brother smashed my Oldsmobile, I went to my local GM dealership, and bought a 2001 Buick LeSabre. This is beautiful car to look at. The body is in great shape, no rust or dings. The interior is nice, and comfortable. The stereo is thumping. I have the Concert Series II. It really puts out a big sound. Definitely not for Grandma. I get great mileage for a big car. I get 31 miles highway, and 25 city. Thats important now that gas is over $3 a gallon. This car is comfortable for passengers. It will fit 5 adults comfortably. I have a remote starter, for cold and snowy Minnesota days.

  Pretty satisfied - 2001 Buick LeSabre
  By lciancola - July 8 - 5:44 pm

  Ive owned my LeSabre since it was brand new. I purchased one due to the fact that my mom also owned one and has been very satisified. Ive also been very happy with mine. The only complaint I have is that the ABS light comes on, and I was told the whole component in the wheel hub needs to be replaced at my Buick dealership. It cost about $517.00. I dont feel that this should have gone so soon, since that light went on a week after I got the car. I think that they need to improve their ABS system since my moms car has had the same problem from the time it was new and hers is a earlier model. Theyre great, roomy, comfortable, and for the most part very reliable, but pricey to repair.

  Flagship Quality at fair price. - 2001 Buick LeSabre
  By G. Rivers - July 24 - 2:00 am

  Proven reliability of the 3.8 liter engine with absolutely top shelf appointments. Why buy Cadillac with their history of seemingly endless engine problems when a top flight Buick gives you all the same creature comforts AND reliability. City or highway this car is first class luxury all the way!

  This is my wifes car, she uses it for daily travel in her occupation as an insurance adjustor. Car has been entirely trouble free for over 70000 miles, not even any warranty work. Replacement of original tires at 65000 miles has been the only expense, except regular maintenance.

  Enjoying the Buick - 2001 Buick LeSabre
  By jose gonzalez - July 18 - 2:00 am

  It has been wonderful to drive this car. Everytime my wife and me go traveling we believe we are "on the air" because it makes no noise, and runs very soft, and when I press the gas pedal its like a jet.

  2001 LeSabre Custom - 2001 Buick LeSabre
  By scobrn - June 17 - 2:00 am

  Ive had this car for 2 years now. Runs great. Ive never had a problem with it. Suspension is very smooth, but handling is still very good. Gas mileage is excellent for this size car. I get 30 MPG on the highway and just over 20 in the city.

  Great ,but.... - 2001 Buick LeSabre
  By Jake02324 - April 14 - 2:00 am

  Took some work to get 2 newer tires,old 2 did not balance. Heater/AC fan beecame noisey, replaced. Rear passenger vent keeps falling apart, held together now with a block of wood! Both visor mirrors wiring crushed by mounting screws,blew fuses. Wrapped with tape fix! Window washer hose came off inside of wiper arm. All little?? things but poor assembly/design/quality! Hood fit is poor or is it the front fenders/grill?
