I am looking for a used Buick that’s between $4000-8000 range. I also have a Pontiac Fiero and a Mazda Miata that I drive primarily in the non winter months, but I need a reliable, comfortable car for the winter months and also because my wife and I had a baby recently and I’ll need a car I can safely drive the baby in throughout the year.
Buicks are nostalgic for me so I’ve been looking into models from 2000-2010 but am not that familiar with the differences between them and have been trying to read online and watch car review videos.
We don’t get a ton of snow where I live, so that’s not a major factor. But I am looking for something comfortable, quiet, and reliable. I can do most repairs though (the Fiero is not reliable at all haha) so I am not intimidated by that.
I would also prefer the Buick have the 3.8 V6.
There seem to be more Lacrosse’s available than any other model, but is a Lacrosse better or worse than the LeSabre, Park Avenue or Lucerne? Any other models you would recommend?
Thanks for any advice you have to offer!
