2008 Buick Enclave: Cars.companion/ Interior

[nashville1510]

Well Buick is now the lexus killer ! I thought I would never see the day !

[FantastyckplastycK]

can a car get any uglier?!

[CJAutosportsTV]

Great value. Just bought a 2011 enclave for $51,000. Instead of the navigator for $65,000. Enclave had more to it as well. Love the onstar and turning headlights

[TruJoker1]

What kind of man sits with his legs together like that? No wonder why you don't have room, open your legs and let your nuts hang!!

[Annihilator1111]

the 2008-present Buick Enclave is assembled in

Delta Township, Michigan, United States

[TheGangstaa101]

@Annihilator1111 did anyone ask you?

[cm18cam]

@HCHGCA13 If this is the ugliest car you have ever seen then you really havent been looking around because in my opinion it looks great.

[AppleStoreNYC]

3 WORDS PIECE OF SHIT

[Unit1138327]

The problem: the price.

[hadabenz]

it's got leaky roofs.

[HCHGCA13]

UGLIEST VEHICLE I HAVE EVER SEEN. I WOULD RATHER DRIVE A GEO!!!!!

[markmarshall39]

@HCHGCA13 i drive a geo, there wonderful

[benzjordan]

highlander is better！

[NakedSnakeBlGBOSS]

Well....Buick may not be bad, but those seats and the sunroof look so cheap compared to Lexus and Infiniti.

[MEvo19]

@NakedSnakeBlGBOSS I test drove one today and the seats are amazingly comfortable. Toyota aka lexus uses fake leather. This was plush leather. I am 6'1 and 270 lbs and I was comfortable in every area of the vehicle. And the back bench seat you can literally sleep on like a couch.

[NakedSnakeBlGBOSS]

@MEvo19

I've never heard of GM using the "real" leather.

And this Buick makes the "bong bong" sound all the time, that gives me headache. I'd rather buy a Lexus or Infiniti.

[MEvo19]

@NakedSnakeBlGBOSS Really.... a bong bong sound.. Lexus is ugly as hell. Infiniti only makes two decent looking cars and thats the FX and g37.

[NakedSnakeBlGBOSS]

@MEvo19

My father has an Infiniti M35X, and people tell him how nice the car looks. Since BMW 5 series and Mercedes E class are now as rare as Toyota Corolla in my area, Infiniti M is quite a new thing for many people. And now the car has been in service for well over 100,000 km and yet, still showing no sign of problem.

What Lexus is ugly as hell? Lexus LS looks 100 times better than any Buick in the lineup and is more sportier than any Buick. And sadly, Buick Regal? is made in Germany.

[NakedSnakeBlGBOSS]

@MEvo19

I wish Tiger Woods promoted Ford products or Dodge rather than stupid GM cars. Shame. I mean look at today's Buick, do you see anything so sporty about it? This SUV looks like it was designed for 60~70 year old grandmas. And Buick Regal, name-only American car.

Chevy Camaro, engineered in Australia. Built in Canada. Uh, hello, what about America?

And GM trucks use Isuzu technology. That's very American, isn't it?

I'd take Lincoln Navigator over this grandma-mobile. Period.

[MEvo19]

@NakedSnakeBlGBOSS I am 21 years old and I find this vehicle much more appealing to me than the lincoln.

And MAYBE this was the case several years ago but the new buicks are all made in the U.S including parts.

And technology is shared by all car industries.

Your a fucking retard if you think that there is any car manufacturer out there that only uses its own parts/technology in their design and manufacturing.

Even the nurburgring record holder Pagani Zonda ( Italian ) uses an AMG engine.

[NakedSnakeBlGBOSS]

@MEvo19

It's quite obvious you are a young dumb kid who has a 70 year old mentality. GM no longer makes their own cars in their own country, child, Camaros were engineered and built by foreigners. The platform itself was engineered by Holden Australia. If you know nothing about cars, then don't even talk, dumbass kiddie.

Buick Regal is nothing but a rebadged Opel, and don't know about it.

It explains why you are so into Buick. LOL!

[6589justin]

The storage compartment under the arm rest is removable! Stop whining about how there only a few inches deep and learn something about the car before you try to review it!!!

[markmarshall39]

for 36500.00 to around 42500.00 with options, why wouldnt you get one!!

[cornerboy380]

This is a nice suv from Buick I really like the shape of it. It is a better choice of suv than their other tow offering. it is nice to see that Buick is stepping up their game

[sasha5641]

quit complaining i dont really like joe hes stuipid

[SpeedyCheeze]

ding ding! here comes the shit-mobile

[yellowcow13]

ford flex??? the flex has a similar interior and more comfort

[HEYmrsprinkles]

@yellowcow13 the enclave is wayyy better

[yellowcow13]

@HEYmrsprinkles the flex drives wayy better then any of the enclave traverse... family

[HEYmrsprinkles]

@yellowcow13 i like the flex they're both hard choices to choose from the buick is classy er and the flex is more like the future ish thing

[yellowcow13]

@HEYmrsprinkles it is a hard one but i love my flex its not as big and olny holds 7 or 6 but its more high tec and the eco boost is boss

[HEYmrsprinkles]

@yellowcow13 i would choose the flex its a good choice

[Jigsaw3477]

I picked up a 2010 on 12/31...it's an awesome ride but a gas guzzler.

[ILVRACN]

These are EVERYWHERE!!!!

[lanier2k5]

check out this video Inside the locker room Giant Singing mice

[hqvidzTV]

.elegancy and fast, 0-100 in 3,6 seconds.

[tblack21]

That centre console is huge. He didn't lift up the storage trays.

[vbud81]

I traded in my Lexus, and fell in love with this vehicle! the last GM I owned was a full sized suv, and this has more room! It is the quietest automobile I've ever owned! LOVE IT! GO GM!

[TheNewMrCool]

Not as effortlessly as it would with a V-8.

[aimcoclutch]

i don't know about engine

nice design in and out

[TheNewMrCool]

If they shoved the 6.0-liter or 6.2-liter in this thing, it would be even more of a winner. My wife and I take long vacations, and I'd like to have a good interstate car. This has everything I want, except for a V-8, which is necessary for passing in a vehicle of this size.

Great job, GM.

[mercmilan06]

An Ecoboost MKT from Lincoln would kick this thing's butt. I'd like to see GM have a more powerful engine in these large CUVs.

[markmarshall39]

yes that would be awesome!

[ILVRACN]

Very nice!!!!

[xxxIzekeIxxx]

if you buy a buick you are uncoool

[stregaboys44]

Buicks are gay. period

[stregaboys44]

Dude that was not a buick, you still fail and are gay.

LET ME BREAK IT DOWN FOR ALL YOU LOW ROLLERS BUICK IS WANNA BE LUXURY BUICK IS ALL GAY PERIOD IS A GRANNYS CAR PUSSIES!

[stregaboys44]

Oh i apologize...

what i meant to say was buick is ultimatlely gay period.

[markmarshall39]

how about a grand nation gnx!

thats not a grandma's car!

and it sure isnt gay!

[ANTHONYMACRI101]

wat octane of gas do u have to put in this suv

[JewTimes2]

...these crossovers are going to put the toyota seqoya out of buisness. The traverse has more room but it's ugly shit. Personally, unless you have 5 kids you don't need a 3rd row. Check out the subaru forester.

[rangkala23]

im buying a Enclave in June!! Can't wait!

[SupremeGodSon]

I rented the Enclave from Enterprise back in 2007 and must say I was impressed with it. Only thing I didn't like was the leg room in the back seats is very limited, as you can see in this video the man's knees are touching the front chair. That was the biggest flaw this truck has. Everything else seemed cool with me.

[tarkin321]

For your information... this is one of very few cars that can actually FIT adults in the back. The Acura MDX can only fit 2 kids in the back with limited leg room

[sneyder69]

I am an Buick man, and i like the disign ! wow its cool !

[businessbmw]

im a bmw man, but when i get married im buying a enclave!!

[JaBunGa23]

umm...... how old r u

[businessbmw]

im 19 why?...

[2000V6]

Fuck Toyota!

[markmarshall39]

@2000V6 i have a 97 toyota corolla, but toyota has changed to me, for the worse!

Oh, ive never had any trouble and it stops! peace!

but right now3 i couldnt agree more!!

[rsxzx6r]

@2000V6 no...toyota fucks you!

[mikeburrly]

@2000V6 I've tried but my rav4 will not break,built like a tank , it keeps going and going.Great quality.

[etoyotarockshsucks]

@2000V6 you obviously have no idea what your talking about. Lexus compares to this. This is just an upscale traverse with the same ugly look.

[SBha30]

Never owning an American vehicle, I am impressed with the recent products that GM has rolled out including the models that use this platform. GM has improved the interior fit / feel of the materials, but still may have some room left for improvement. I will go to a Buick dealership in the next few weeks and check this car out. Thanks for the post.

[juanethannickolas]

If the buick enclave came in hybrid would all of you drive it?????????

[Iridium725]

That second row seat sliding forward and folding looks incredibly flimsy and like its gonna break after a while.

[Iridium725]

Would the BMW X5 be considered a direct competitor for the Enclave?

[johnnyboy181990]

i wouldn't thank so. a fully loaded enclave is about 20K cheaper than a fully loaded X5. i wouldn't consider them competitors but there still in the luxury class. Now the Audi Q7 is a direct competitor with the X5.

[Iridium725]

Well the Enclave is GM's best competitor with the X5 I think now. I mean the Escalade is a better competitor with the GL Merc, because their both absolutely huge.

[johnnyboy181990]

"CUV" means "Crossover Utility Vehicle" its because it's based on a car not a truck.

[anijon]

Actually the Enclave doesn't have a car or truck chasis.  GM built one strictly for this segment of vehicles.

[nickster102559]

some of you guys say "CUV" i don't know if thats what you call it in other continents but its called "SUV" Sport Utility Vehicle.

[Terminus2Impact]

Man my dad has buick roadmaster 1996. It's cool, and I wish we can buy this, but unfortunately, we don't have buick agency over here...

[juanethannickolas]

Cant you just go to the nearest dealer???

[guynpip4ever]

hyundai vera cruz is way better than this cuv.compare the interior yourself and you will know what i mean. just got the 08 vera cruz ltd.

[shawtiee1085]

the veracruz is cheap and slow..

[CARFANATIC552]

The Veracruz isn't cheap and it sure isn't slow. It does 0-60 in 8-8.5 sec. which isn't bad for it's class. The interior has impeccable quality for it's price range and while not as roomy as the Enclave, has more features. Taking the space issue into concern, it is also 5,000 cheaper similarly equipped. A respect both of them and think they're turning the car world inside-out.

[PROgoth121]

Um, the Veracruz beat the Lexus... So it would sure as hell beat this piece of shit Buick. Korean motors are already beating GM in alot of the car categories.

[shawtiee1085]

No it didnt. They said was a good substitute for the Lexus RX350 but for sure didnt beat it. Korean cars are shit. I just got rid of one of my 2 Hyundais. A Hyundai XG300 that had constant problems with electrical and power steering. I still have an 02 Elantra that has transmission and power steering problems. I got an 07 Nissan Maxima last May and not one problem. So Korean motors are for sure not beating Japanese and German.

[PROgoth121]

Well, no for the most part Korean is not beating Japanese/German, but their (Korean) are improving their interior, mechanical quality to this day. The new 2010 Kia Optima is sweet. The interior looks better quality than Ford/GM/Dodge put together. I'm just saying American motor companies aren't caring for their cars much anymore except for their luzury brands it seems. And it's gotten to where Korean is starting to beat American. Korean cars have been winnning alot of awards here lately.

[shawtiee1085]

well im saying a veracruz wont beat an enclave. its faster, better on gas, and overall a better made crossover than a crappy hyundai

[PROgoth121]

lmao, w/e.

[shawtiee1085]

yea u kno im right

[PROgoth121]

You wish you were right. -.-

[shawtiee1085]

ok ur not funny u fucken pro goth asswipe

[jonnyfx]

Who are "they"? More blindly Lexus pushing faggots like you eh? Probably.  I love it when faggots quote anoymous "they" when pushing their faggotry laden agenda. Good job homo eroticus fagfuckface.

[shawtiee1085]

"they" is ur mom. getta fuckin life dick breath.

[mustangwner2003V6]

I'm not really a fan or - GM - however I would love too see where you are getting your information so I can also keep up todate with all these cool facts. I saw on T.v last night, that -GM- went to japan or where ever it was.. and general motors is actually beating the compition by far, however japan and ect. are not far behind and did they think General motors will stay on top, no not for long. but fact for fact. General motors is at the top over there. same with Chevy.

[justandretti]

after seeing this car on the road i can not imagine why a person would buy a rx350, the buick is amazing, i guess people buy the rx to have a right to brag "i have a lexus," i diven the rx its a nice car ( a flash statement rather) but i dosent have soul, just downright avg. buick brings the soul to suv's like marvin gaye did with motown

[32silvercoins]

Ive never been a GM kind of guy

I like buicks i love there heritage but the all the new ones have been sooo underwhelming to me

But when i saw this new Enclave my jaw dropped

I think GM has really got a homerun on there hands

I hope they offer a super version of this crossover :D

[CRYST2SHELL]

finally a real life demo of person INSIDE the vehicle. FANTASTIC. I'm not completely sold though, I wonder how it compares to the MAZDA CX9 touring

[Cargo1273]

I like the CXL in Cocoa Metallic. It's very high on demand right now. GM had to increase production by adding a third shift in the factory where this one is made in order to beat the demand. My local Buick-Pontiac-GMC dealership has 3,000 potential customers waiting. I want to get one, unfortunately, I didn't saw much room back in the third row for 6-feet plus passengers and the cheap sun blocker curtain was dissaponting. Still is a nice CUV.

[lavakava]

looks like a lexus, is reliable like a lexus...buick did the right thing by copying lexus...competition works! only thing remaining is to copy lexus' advanced hybrid engine technologies and then buick is all set!

[LovePontiac]

Why should they? It's way too expensive for the fuel gains. Plus it's clunky. Read car and driver's long term RX400h test.

[rueben44]

What a excellent product with a great price.

[KonaKoo]

Big third row. i like it! =]

[GeneralMotorsRules]

Excellent vehicle.
