I've been thinking about getting a second car. Basically, I've always had my heart set on having a Buick. I just love bench seats, the smooth ride and all of that good stuff. Unfortunately, I don't know what's the most reliable model for the money, though. Does anybody have suggestions as to what are the best 90s-current era Buicks in terms of value?

The best one is a used 2006 Lucerne CXS. You can get one now for a bit over 20K and its worth every penny. Handles like.. well, not like a Buick. Very much like an older 1990s S-Class. Or if you have to go used, a Park Ave, since the LeSabre is essentially unobtainium with a bench seat.

Replying to: british_rover (Jan 09, 2007 7:45 am) A few more questions for you if you don't mind. Does the SC engine require premium gas. How would you rate the overall reliability/repair costs of this model - let's stick with the SC Do you think the interior trim would be in good shape for a 10 year old car - in terms of not coming apart. This is one car I have never driven - nor sat in. So any impressions are appreciated.
