this is a great american vehicle that really displays the quality and skill of AMERICAN labor. I would definitely buy this vehicle over all the other imports that send our money and jobs over seas. this vehicle is beautiful!!!!
Is that a real wood or a fake one ? The center million buttons console is little bit confusing I have heard that it was built in china based on a cell phone buttons!!
what makes me love this car is definitely the interior of this car, its beautiful and the ambient lighting just makes it so much better. A lot of people have 1 main concern when it comes to small size car is the leg room in the back but not with this car. I saw over 6 feet or 183 cm sitting in the back and said he has no problem with leg room.
this car would really catch on in europe ;) btw how can you buy lexus in the us? Apart from the IS they all look too boring, I'd buy one of these or a BMW, Volvo, Merc, in a heartbeat!
isit jus me or does this car have similarities to the new vauxhall astra/insignia for example the rear of the vehicle looks lik the vauxhall insigna and the inside look both like da astra and insignia....
Buick always had a top rate performance car in its line up. The Century in the '50s, Wildcat and GS cars in the '60s and '70s and the Grand National in the '80s. In the '90s management proclaimed "no more boy racers" and proceeded to produce a boring line of automobiles. They nearly ruined the company. Cars like the Riviera, Wildcat and Grand National gave the brand a bit of cache. They need to get it back.
they should make this car years ago,,,thats why americans lost a lot of money about quality...like the old corvettes so cheap inside wtffff so funny a mercedes from 1986 used to look better than 2001 corvette
Saw one of these on the road today. This video doesn't do it justice. It just looks increadable rolling down the road. Congrats Buick on a fantastic design.
lol...buick is a copycat imitator of lexus...la crosse, enclave...la crosse is a lexus es350 clone...its just to impress some rednecks around here...naah! give me the real thing...lexus
lol buick is a cheating company...its original designs were ugly..then the buick chief designer decided to imitate lexus and the enclave and new la crosse were born...go BUICK for being a copycat! :) lol hehe
@lavakava You need to take a look at a Buick Lacrosse up close and not in pictures. It beats out Lexus hands down on styling and looks. Lexus actually copied European designs, so Lexus is the real copycat. Buick just did it AND makes a much better car both in looks and in mechanics. At least Buick gives due credit by naming this car correctly, identifying it's European background. But, you'll never understand or realize this, unless you own one which you won't. Your loss.
you can make all excuses you want, but BUICK DESIGN MANAGER ADMITTED THAT HE IS COPYING LEXUS (aspiring to be like Lexus)...that's pretty much like holding the white flag that iraqi army held during 1991 gulf war lol...you are better than me, so we are aspiring to be like you!
@lavakava Try finding that statement again. His statement was "to be better than Lexus", not like Lexus. According to the reviews, Buick has succeeded.
@rantanamo What are your sources, I would like to know. Are you telling me that this Buick is far more superior to Mercedes class E or Audi Quattro? I used to have a Lincoln, the first 4years were good and after that its hell. American cars lose value because of this reliability issue. A 5years old BMW is not the same thing as 5years old Chevrolet. BMW you can use it for 10years ,but GM only for 5 years so if BMW cost double GM I will still buy. I think GM is no longer #1 for a reason
@regisiam The myth reliability of American vehicles is laughable. My father still has the same Chevy he bought 20 years ago. To be honest, it runs better than my 99 Toyota Corolla. Do a bit more research before you believe anybody here on youtube.
@im1greatman Why GM lost the number one spot? I really hope your right because I like American cars. Asian car seems to me like plastic made, but my experience with Lincoln/ford was terrible. A 5 years old car that brakes down 4 times a year is not acceptable ,the stealership charges me 1000 for each visit ,my car is not that old. I hope to find a reliable American car because i just don't like Asian cars. German ,American or walking on foot loll
i had a chevy cavalier 2002 model...the worst pos ever...it can't even be compared to a superior japanese car. i visited gm factory...full of redneck workers lol.
@lavakava Same workers that build Lexus. UAW Union people. They are all built the same today. What matters today is the engineering. Toyota BUYS most of it's engineering (much of it FROM GM!!!!) Don't believe me? Look under the hood of a lot of Toyotas. You'll probably find the GM badge somewhere in there. GM engineering beats out Toyota every time in today's market. You need to swallow your pride and drive a Buick for a couple of weeks sometime. You'll see.
lol toyotas or lexus built in US have GM parts (but only ones authorized to be good enough to go into toyota)...don't tell me the R&D is done by GM!! GM absolutely sucks...from my first chevy to my last ford...every pos american yank tank sucked balls. chrysler is so bad that my dog wouldn't even piss in it..
@lavakava Yes R&D is done by GM. GM has some of the most modern factories on the planet. Learn to treat your cars with respect, and they'll last longer. No matter WHO makes them. From the sounds of your style, I'd suggest a full size truck. They last 10 times longer than any car does. Ford and Chevy both make the best trucks you can buy. Period. They've been at it 100 years a piece.
Last time I checked all Lexus automobiles were imported. All but a handful of Toyotas have enough US content to even classify them as built in the US.
This doesn`t even look like a Lexus. Lexus cars are devoid of style. This is an Opel re branded as a Buick built on the GM Episilon II platform.If you don`t know Opel=GM. Unfortunately your perception on reality clouds your judgment. GM made mistakes in the past, all car companies do. Just get rid of your BIAS!
How can you tell me this doesn't look like a Lexus? Have you seen the Buick ads? Have you seen the documentary where they interview the Buick Chief Designer. I am not biased at all. I just get frustrated at pseudopatriots who think that buying an ugly GM (or a somewhat-pretty GM like this lexus wannabe) is being patriotic...when in reality GM (especially its redneck union workers) have been screwing the Americans with unreliable, pos cars with plastic interiors forever.
@lavakava i know right! who buys crap because its partiotic. if my country(america) doesnt make a quality car then i dont buy it. who gives a crap he loves his country, he should just get a life.
GM didn't make 'mistake'. they knowingly did a lot of nasty things taking the american public for fools...they deliberately worked with oil companies to make unreliable, noisy vehicles with low MPG...the Hummer for example...it looks like a coffin on wheels, is very noisy inside, not that reliable...and it had a 'branding' for a few months and now its a redneck mobile...GM deserves it!
More than Lexus, my favorite brand is Infiniti...Nissan got the radical muscular styling right on its G35 and FX35 way back in 2002/2003 when American/European cars looked like boxes (eg: bmw x5, or mercedes ml350)...and though infiniti chief designer is a japanese guy in japan and the CEO of infiniti/nissan is a lebanese (carlos ghosn), it had many american assistant designers/engineers...
@lavakava You should have researched more, the Cavalier was an 1980's model car, when everyone knows GM was doing it's worst. I'd suggested the Malibu in 2002, the car that blew Toyota out of the water!
@im1greatman I agree with you 100%. American cars had a short bad run during the 80's. That was 30 years ago, but today people still harp on it. Old news. Today American cars are the real stand out. They last longer, they run better, and end up being much cheaper to own (both on repairs and MPG).
during the 80s...sonny i had a 2003 cavalier. and it was just as much a pos as a 1981 oldsmobile...poor interior quality,, awful mechanics, failing electronics...i had to sit my ass on the workshop more than in the car...and the workshop being run by a redneck, he cheated the hell out of me too...by overcharging for shitty american parts.
@lavakava I thought you said you had a 2002 Cavalier? And how could you have a 2002 Cavalier in the 80's? Learn to work on cars yourself. If you hate overcharging, then you deserve a Lexus where you'll get bent over backwards just to get the oil changed! LOL you really are green on cars aren't you?
do you understand english? what I said was GM's 2000+ models are not any better than the 80's models...you are a true dumbass. And usually dumbasses drive this pos GM (buick) that copied Lexus.
Wow.....I'm gonna try one of those out....I like the dual exhaust flowing with the skirt.....I think a black one with tinted windows would be a nice ride!!!!
I've owned japanese cars all my life, but after watching this video..I am in love with this buick. I think GM needs to push more cars like this. I think GM will do good in future. Time to buy their stock :)

I think they are... You should check out the 2011 Buick Regal. What a beautiful machine that is! They have a GS version coming out as well. I really like these cars a lot :)
Come on people why the hate? I think this is a great departure for Buick. They gotta change someday to a younger market and besides it can't be perfect, nothing is, this is very very good though.
lol...buick is a copycat imitator of lexus...la crosse, enclave...la crosse is a lexus es350 clone...its just to impress some rednecks around here...naah! give me the real thing...lexus
It would have made a better Saturn... Sorry, but I'll never be a fan of Buick, the name screams old and slow... And the grill isn't that attractive, like when they killed Pontiac and rebadges the G8 with a caprice label... Uh, it just took away the cool-factor... GM has this obsession with competing with Lexus... This car would have been much cooler badged as a Saturn...
basically you're saying an individual car's performance is totally reliant on the name sake? So you could badge a Corvette a Buick and it would then be slow?
Would have made an amazing Saturn... The name Buick just reminds me of old and slow, I just can't get over that... And the grille is very mercury like... Which isn't so attractive in my opinion... Same thing with the G8 being rebadges as a chevy, it changes the coolness of the car!
@mista925 A. saturn is gone/did not make luxury cars B. buicks have always make good power C. the grille is the most "buick like" part of the car D. the G8 is a totaly different car that shares nothing with the laCrosse nor is it a chevy... its a pontiac
the power that the engine provides is very low compared to EU built cars... eg BMW 330i has 272hp and only on average consumes 8L/100km... dunno how many miles to the gallon the Buick gets though, but im guessing alot more
and you're 20 yrs old? so..... you must have a long history of driving experience, huh? i mean, to make such a remark.. I'd at least expect a person to be driving for 10 yrs.
but this one looks pretty cool i must say, im just wondering wether the quality is as good as it looks, because i doubt it... it a GM vehicle. Owned two GM saabs both of very poor quality compared to the price i paid..
Most people dont care about the enviroment... they just try to look for things that they dont have to spend extra money on... ( Hybrid Cars ) and electric cars which they dont even have to put a cent of gas money in it ( Tesla Roadster, Tesla Model S )
I really like the looks of the interior and exterior. But i wouldnt buy it because its still a buick and when people think buick they think old people.... I will stick with my rx350
dont hate on the guy... personally i think that Lexus is for older people... many car enthusiasts say so too... Mercedes-Benz is more of a younger luxury. and by the way, he specifically says "this isnt your grandmother's buick" stating that many old people drive Buicks. get your facts straight before you give a thumbs down to somebody please.
I just bought this car and it's fantastic! I love the instrument panel and the heads up display is something rarely found in cars anymore. The navigation screen is great. The car gets looks everywhere I go and looks far better then the Lexus I was looking at. Very comfortable and 38K out the door.
I love the car. I also like that it is made in America. What would happen if more people bought American. Maybe reduce the deficit,strengthen the weak dollar.
in this chinese market, this car is priced as the same price as honda accord, toyota camery, and nissan altima-equivilent
image if this car is priced at that in the US market (that somehow they can reduce cost to that too), then i can see how GM is gonna destroy the japanese cars and take back the market again with this
@lcascio313g haha i think gm should do better now they released the 2010 buick lacrosse, cadillac srx new buick regal and they r soon gonna be releasing the 2011 chevy cruze and volt they should sell like hell
@lcascio313g The LaCrosse was on the drawing board long before the bailout. In fact all of the product that GM now has was in the works before the bailout. GM was doing what it needed to do to get turned around when it got clobbered by the government caused recession. Yes, they didn't do it as fast as they should but who knew back in 2007 that this economic downturn was going to be so vicious?
I just purchased a Buick LaCrosse and the car is fantastic. Take a look at this car before you decide. GM has a big hill to climb, but this is a great start. GO BIG THREE
I am buying a car soon, I am looking for good quality, long lasting, less gas eating with reasonable price. I thought 2010 Buick Lacrosse would be good but seeing comments on here makes me re-think my decision
I often wonder why they complain about Granpa buying this car, when Granpa is the only that's got money to buy a car, as apposed to his son or grandson who has nothing but overextended credit?
How dare you! That's an over $500 car payment, because nobody for damn sure has that kind of cash on hand for a depreciable asset. People have other things to spend their money on besides a car. If they don't then it's one of the reasons WHY they are in financial trouble. Don't you dare call 27k "nothing".
If you think no one can afford a 27k Lacrosse, then how do people afford all the new Lexus, Infiniti, Acura, Land Rover, Cadlilac, Mazeratti, Jaguar, BMW, Mercedes-Ben, Audi... well are you getting the point yet? Many economy or non-luxury brands have models that are more expensive than this. 27k is not expensive at all. I guess you are KIa for life? Even Kia makes models that are over 27k when fully loaded. You're a joke.
What, do you think most cars cost 10k? Lol. Do you even know the price of vehicles being sold today? Just because YOU can't afford something doesn't mean NOBODY can. You're a moron for financing as well. Why would you pay interest on a depreciating asset?
I didn't say nobody could. If you'd learn to read, you'd see that I mentioned people in their 50s or better, "grandpa" people like you make fun of, are the ones who can afford cars like this in this price range, not people like you who live on credit. Why do I argue with teenagers who can't even live by themselves?
I know. That's why you are so dumb. Do you live in a place where the old people that have money are over 50? Most people over 50 lost a ton of money with the market collapse, making you doubly stupid. I'm 26, so that makes me a grandpa? Lol. So dumb...
The fact that you mock ANYBODY means you weren't raised right. The fact that you spent all that cash money on a car means you're either living off your parents or your wife or you're pretty cash poor right now. But the fact that you're on a BUICK site griping because I don't like the idea that they want young people to buy Buicks when older people are the ones with money? Well, that's just flat retarded. Go talk about your Ford on the Ford site.
Weren't raised right? You're the complete idiot who thinks everyone under 50 can't afford a decent car. This is by no means an overpriced luxury car. The new Lacrosse is a great value. You have to pay 10-15k for other luxury brands that offer these features. You should pray that people under 50 would buy this car instead of the stupid boy racer vehicles that cost the same price or more. The road would be much safer.
Heaven help the people you will be charged with educating. You don't even have reading comprehension skills yourself! Go back and highlight were I called the Buick LaCrosse overpriced. Now any responses after that and I'm getting on your private account.
Get on my private account you country bumpkin. I'll just block you because you don't have the balls to be exposed in an open forum. I'm going to block you and your cowardice right now. You're a moron for thinking the Lacrosse is over-priced. It's one of the LEAST expensive luxury vehicles. You still haven't answered what you drive or what you do for a living?
Don't want a face to face, too bad then. My affairs are nobody's business, which is why I don't post them on what you call "public forums". You're the one telling more than anyone, including future employers, more than they need to know. I feel sorry for the sons and daughters of "blue-collar people" you may be in charge of trying to educate. Your upbringing will come back to haunt you someday, but you will find this out for yourself. Good luck.
Face to face? How is a private email face to face? You don't want post in the open because you're exposed for being a dumbass. Future employers? Yeah, I almost forgot how my username ISN'T attached to me at all. I don't mind if someone wants to be blue collar, but if they are resentful of others that desire more then they make me sick, but I will eventually be a professor. You really think you are going to be rich when you are 50+? Keeping playing your local lottery, lol.
Well, your assessment of me is wrong, your assessment of "blue collar pieces of shit" is wrong, but I must say my assessment of you remains true - you're an ass. But continue to work on reading comprehension skills and maybe by the time those loans have paid off you'll be able to pay cash for a house to go along with that car you've wasted your money on. Might want to cut your teeth as an adjunct at the vo-tech though, so you can get a taste of what blue collar folk are really like.
You still haven't told me your job or car? Embarrassed? That's an indirect confirmation. How many kids do you have? You have to be a complete mess to not afford this car or think that it's such a poor investment. I'll pay off my loans in a year, easily. Maybe you should work on your communication skills, as I interpreted your words precisely. Vocational schools are garbage.
Spent all that money on a car? You think I should have financed a car like you? And for what? Pay twice the vehicle value by the time I pay it off for a depreciating asset? I guess you have a 30 year mortgage too? Did you know when (or if) you pay off your house you will have paid nearly 3x the original value of the house? Still think financing your "appreciating asset" is a good idea?
Do you live in the rust belt, or some equally shitty job less hell hole? I'm getting a Bachelor's of Education and I will start with 35-40k, so unless I created a shit load of babies like a moron, how is 27k unaffordable? Most cars on the market cost more than 27k when loaded. You're logic is ridiculous. Can you not find a job or are you only making $10 an hour that you feel everyone below 50 is poor?
Sounds like you are an epic failure with a bunch of mouths to feed and a shit load of debt. A BA won't BUY me anything, it will EARN me a career. A career that will PAY for whatever I decide to purchase. Maybe you should have invested in an education you blue collar piece of shit.
Maybe if you kept your car for more then a couple years you wouldn't think 27k is such a burden. If you kept it 10 years that's only 2.7k a year spent on a car, not counting the value you would have if you sold it at that point. If you make 40k a year 2.7k a year is peanuts for high quality transportation. Why don't you go bitch on a car video that isn't a good value, like a Cadillac or a Mercedes-Benz.
The exterior looks very normal it needs a more concepty look to make it exciting and compete with other modern brands, i like everything else here tho :) wish all the best for GM.
Gorgeous. Now Buick needs to work on marketing - product placement and "known as". I need to see this on billboards coming into Manhattan and along LaCienega. It needs to be on 'Desperate Housewives'. It better not be too affordable or Americans will assume it's another cheap GM car. This Honda Accord meets Mercede E-Class should be in high 30s / low 40s.
I ordered a Lacrosse in May, was assured it would arrive anytime in June, then July, then August. At the end of August, I gave up. The dealer finally calls and said the Lacrosse will arrive on Tues, Aug. 25, to be exact. When it didnt arrive on that day, I was told that the car was built on July 27th, and no one at the dealer knew where it was until it arrived on Thurs., Aug. 27th. Due to total incompetency, GM has permanently lost a once loyal customer and defender of Buicks.
German and Chinese designed....do we designe anythinig in this country anymore?
Talk about copying Lexus, did you check out the exhausts and overal design. An updated Lexus ES350 to me.
Credit where credit is do. The interior is just gorgeous to look at. I wish GM luck with this one. They could use a break right now.......so could the taxpayers since we now own a huge stake in the company.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
GM use a break my Ass. Govenment i supporting them, and backing up their warranties for garbage American cars. Hence, its effecting our economy at large. GM can burn. The only reason for them to stay alive in the market is so that Toyota and other Japanese companies dont get their headsup their ass's and overcharge for their cars. More competition equals lower prices.
You do realize Toyota gets Japanese Government bailouts right? Or are you too busy watching liberal TV news stations to hear any real news that isn't anti American.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Listen budd, say what u want, but the facts are on the table. Japanese cars like Toyota and Honda are not on Government support, Toyota and Honda are the Biggest Auto makers, they dont need bail outs. Now go and bake something.
Actually sir. What do you think a Cash for Clunkers program is that doesn't exclude foreign manufacturers, #1.
#2 Toyota posted their first loss since 1950 recently and did take tens of tens of millions of dollars (In us equivalence) to fund their failing operations (Sure it's no bailout but still).
Japanese automakers don't have ANY legacy costs. Legacy costs are those things that allow people to retire something they don't do in Japan. GM roped themselves into retarded UAW contracts.
Actually believe it or not. Lexus copied Buick in their design strategy. Now don't get me wrong Lexus has overtaken Buick, but origonally it was modled after buick.
As for Acura, please show me ONE trait that this Buick shares with an Acura, which BTW have the ugliest vehicles on the road today
I'm 34 years old, and for the first time in over 20 years (I used to love Grand Nationals and GNXs as a teenager) there is finally a Buick that really appeals to me! If I were in the market I'd check this one out!
GM's failures and troubles are well documented, but this car should be another hit just like the Cadillac CTS and the Chevrolet Malibu. Now, if only GM would keep the excellent Pontiac G8 as a Chevrolet or Buick (positioned above the LaCrosse), they'd have my business for sure!
I really have to say, this car has to be a veryyyyyyyy nice design and actually the most unique, it looks like no other car, and the grille and rear is so reminiscent of the Enclave, which, itself is a very nice car too, the interior is absolutely amazing too, how many "luxury" cars have interiors like this? Not Bmw, Mercedes, and def not Audi.

you can tell its a crap american car by the deep cupholders in the dash. americans always need a place to put their overpriced coffees or for the rednecks to put their supersized sodas

Buick always had a top rate performance car in its line up. The Century in the '50s, Wildcat and GS cars in the '60s and '70s and the Grand National in the '80s. In the '90s management proclaimed "no more boy racers" and proceeded to produce a boring line of automobiles. They nearly ruined the company. Cars like the Riviera, Wildcat and Grand National gave the brand a bit of cache. They need to get it back.

@lavakava You need to take a look at a Buick Lacrosse up close and not in pictures. It beats out Lexus hands down on styling and looks. Lexus actually copied European designs, so Lexus is the real copycat. Buick just did it AND makes a much better car both in looks and in mechanics. At least Buick gives due credit by naming this car correctly, identifying it's European background. But, you'll never understand or realize this, unless you own one which you won't. Your loss.

@rantanamo What are your sources, I would like to know. Are you telling me that this Buick is far more superior to Mercedes class E or Audi Quattro? I used to have a Lincoln, the first 4years were good and after that its hell. American cars lose value because of this reliability issue. A 5years old BMW is not the same thing as 5years old Chevrolet. BMW you can use it for 10years ,but GM only for 5 years so if BMW cost double GM I will still buy. I think GM is no longer #1 for a reason

@im1greatman Why GM lost the number one spot? I really hope your right because I like American cars. Asian car seems to me like plastic made, but my experience with Lincoln/ford was terrible. A 5 years old car that brakes down 4 times a year is not acceptable ,the stealership charges me 1000 for each visit ,my car is not that old. I hope to find a reliable American car because i just don't like Asian cars. German ,American or walking on foot loll

Don't believe me? Look under the hood of a lot of Toyotas. You'll probably find the GM badge somewhere in there. GM engineering beats out Toyota every time in today's market. You need to swallow your pride and drive a Buick for a couple of weeks sometime. You'll see.

@lavakava Yes R&D is done by GM. GM has some of the most modern factories on the planet. Learn to treat your cars with respect, and they'll last longer. No matter WHO makes them. From the sounds of your style, I'd suggest a full size truck. They last 10 times longer than any car does. Ford and Chevy both make the best trucks you can buy. Period. They've been at it 100 years a piece.

Last time I checked all Lexus automobiles were imported. All but a handful of Toyotas have enough US content to even classify them as built in the US.
This doesn`t even look like a Lexus. Lexus cars are devoid of style. This is an Opel re branded as a Buick built on the GM Episilon II platform.If you don`t know Opel=GM. Unfortunately your perception on reality clouds your judgment. GM made mistakes in the past, all car companies do. Just get rid of your BIAS!

@im1greatman I agree with you 100%. American cars had a short bad run during the 80's. That was 30 years ago, but today people still harp on it. Old news. Today American cars are the real stand out. They last longer, they run better, and end up being much cheaper to own (both on repairs and MPG).

Weren't raised right? You're the complete idiot who thinks everyone under 50 can't afford a decent car. This is by no means an overpriced luxury car. The new Lacrosse is a great value.

You should pray that people under 50 would buy this car instead of the stupid boy racer vehicles that cost the same price or more. The road would be much safer.

If you make 40k a year 2.7k a year is peanuts for high quality transportation. Why don't you go bitch on a car video that isn't a good value, like a Cadillac or a Mercedes-Benz.

GM's failures and troubles are well documented, but this car should be another hit just like the Cadillac CTS and the Chevrolet Malibu. Now, if only GM would keep the excellent Pontiac G8 as a Chevrolet or Buick (positioned above the LaCrosse), they'd have my business for sure!
