Car production for the 2012 model year started back in the last few months of 2011 (as early as August on some models). The mid-year refresh I mentioned was referring to the tentative January 23rd date I had mentioned earlier. I hadn't meant to be confusing, and I apologize!
 
I will get a call into the Sheehan Buick for you today and post an update for you by 4:30 EST.
 
Best,

I apologize for the last response! I called the dealership and the person I spoke with said that they believed orders could be placed for Lacrosses with Intellilink, but was going to make sure and call me back. The return call never occurred, which I was waiting for to post back to you. (Funny thing is I was driving home last night and thought to myself: Oh no! I didn't post back on Friday!)
So, again, I apologize for a late response.

What are the advantages of Intellilink over the previous system?
Any bets upon whether it performs fully or not?
I find it a shame that GM has taken the fix approach of MS. Sort of out the door and then patch after patch, and sometimes no patch for the problem.

One of the new innovations with the Intellilink system is its ability to use Bluetooth technology to stream audio from a smart phone; this means that internet radio stations on Pandora or Stitcher could be enjoyed while driving. I am not sure how much more I should elaborate as I do not want to violate the Edmunds policies on solicitation. If I can provide any more information for you, please contact me via email and I'd be happy to further discuss Intellilink.

Buick dealer locally having a big sale soon, and the wife really likes the new Lacrosse’s. If we find one that fits all our needs it will save special ordering it. But, what is the difference between the Intellilink we would find at the dealer’s and the one being put in the Lacrosse starting on the 23rd of this month.
 
Are the differences enough to warrant waiting for the new one?
 
P.S.—new to the forum, searched the posts but couldn’t find any addressing this issue, thus the new discussion.

Hi Sarah,
 
I really would like to buy a Buick Lacrosse but I don't want it without the intellilink system with rear view backup camera. Any news on when I can order? I'm working with a dealership out of Columbia, SC to get it ordered but he hadn't heard any word on when cars with the intellilink could be ordered. I would like to order a premium 1 or premium 2 package but I don't want it without all the standard features it's supposed to come with. Thank you!
Lindsey

Hello Lindsey,
I'm sorry to say that since the last posts I've made I haven't received any new information on when a vehicle with Intellilink will be available for order. I'll continue to watch for it, though, and will update the thread when I know more.

Hello all,
I also keep an eye on the Buick Facebook wall and saw the following post there from Buick about IntelliLink on the LaCrosse: Buick Facebook: IntelliLink Post
Knew you all were interested, so thought it would be helpful!
