This Year's Model Updates:

The Series II engine becomes standard on LeSabre. Order the Gran Touring suspension, and get the same magnetic variable effort steering found on the Park Avenue Ultra. Now standard on the Custom is an electric rear window defogger and storage armrest. Limited trim levels get Twilight Sentinel, dual automatic ComforTemp climate controls and a rear-seat center armrest.

  • Immortal engine - 1996 Buick LeSabre
    By -

    I bought mine from a friend when it had 180k miles, but sadly, it already had a lot of wear, so I cant be sure, but I think it was just driven really hard. Ive had to replace many parts, including the radiator and transmission, but the engine just keeps on going. Unfortunately, it still has a few different leak problems that I dont feel like spending money to fix, so Im driving it to the ground and getting another car.

  • Old girl still has it! - 1996 Buick LeSabre
    By -

    This car has been great. I have about 135k miles so far and no really major problems (except one, which I will talk about later). I have gotten 31mpg on the highway and I usually get around 21mpg city. Had a problem where the car was mis-firing up hills and when the engine was under load. Did some research and figured out it was a bad spark plug cable. Replaced all the spark plugs and cables and now she purrs like a kitten. My A/C compressor clutch died about a year ago now and makes a grinding noise every once in a while, but that doesnt hurt anything or effect the car in any way (although no air conditioning, obviously). Driver power window just died a week ago. Its an old car, though...

  • Comfortable Car - 1996 Buick LeSabre
    By -

    The Buick LeSabre is a very roomy, smooth riding, and comfortable car. It will not necessarily turn heads, but it has lots of interior room and plenty of V6 power. The suspension has a floatly feel on rough roads, but is well mannered on city streets and highways. After owning one for a few months now, I fully understand why my parents liked them. Good value for the money and comfort.

  • Please with our 1996 LaSabre - 1996 Buick LeSabre

    We like the quite spaciousness of the interior without the bulky feeling of some cars in this class. Its a car we love to take for a evening drive... with room for friends. A very nice car but inconspicous car.

    I have 105,000 on my Buick now and wouldnt trade it for anything else. Its everything I want in an automobile.
