Used Buick Lucerne

Buick Lucerne 150

The Lucerne is a luxury sedan that emerged from Buick’s reinvigorated car design & engineering thrusts in 2006. It replaced the Buick LaSabre and Park Avenue and first wended its way into a major US car show in 2005. When it marked its inaugural debut in 2006, the Lucerne went down history as the initial V8-powered Buick after a protracted time (since the V8 powered the Roadmaster in 1996). It is a front wheel drive sedan that pundits noted for its failure to excite buyers, although it has topnotch styling and innovative design.

The Buick Lucerne actually offered two engine options the 3.8-liter V6 that made 197 horsepower at 5200 rpm, and the V8 model that utilized a Cadillac Northstar engine that produced 275 horsepower at 6000 rpm. On the other hand, the Lucerne Super came with a 4.6-liter V8 engine that produced 292 horsepower. The Lucerne offered an efficient & smooth ride and superb handling, which made it a worthy contender to other marques in the luxury car segment.

Estimated Price Range for Used Buick Lucerne: $2,500-$55,000
Estimated MPG for Buick Lucerne: 15 City/22 Hwy
Available Trims: CX, CXL, CXS

Used Buick Park Avenue

Buick Park Avenue 150

The Buick Park Avenue made its way into the competitive auto industry in the middle part of 1970. Plush interiors that included velour upholstered seats and a powerful V8 engine plus a cabin with an ersatz wooden trim and chrome body characterized the early model.

It was downsized in 1977. With the advent of the 1990s, the Park Avenue adopted an identity all its own and broke away from the American automaker’s design tradition of compact boxy sedans. Consumers marveled at the elegantly styled and soft, curvy body of the improved Park Avenue, which offered a supercharged V6 engine plus luxury features like dual-zone climate control.

The Park Avenue underwent another transformation in 1997, with emphasis still on plush interiors & comfort rather than superb handling. Park Avenue models produced from 1997 until 2005 displayed better handling quality and smoother ride, and less rattling than their predecessors, as a respectful nod to changing consumer tastes.

Estimated Price Range for Used Buick Park Avenue: $1,000-$17,000
Estimated MPG for Buick Park Avenue: 17 City/25 Hwy
Available Trims: base, Ultra

Used Buick Reatta

Buick Reatta 150

The Buick Reatta was an appealing two-seater coupe that offers good handling, with smooth, rounded styling. It went the extra mile to satisfy passengers & drivers expecting luxurious comfort and practicality in one vehicle.

Reatta models that rolled off the assembly line during its first two years featured a spacious cabin and large trunk, electric sliding sunroof and a handful of power adjustments. By 1991, the open-air model incorporated an airbag in the driver’s side and more power that emanated from a 3800 V6 engine.

By this time, the classic Buick Reatta had become more arresting, and had emerged as an interesting car of choice for serious car collectors. There were mixed consumer reviews for the Buick Regatta. While it evoked the handcrafted appeal of an authentic limited edition car in an era when Buick’s luxury sports cars rose to prominence, the Reatta (convertible) had been noted for its poor workmanship. The automaker’s eventual decision to drop it from its lineup was deemed a strategic move.

Estimated Price Range for Used Buick Reatta: $2,000-$35,000
Estimated MPG for Buick Reatta: 16 City/25 Hwy
Available Trims: CXL
