So, please, let's talk in code -- "pricing problems" will stand for "great value", "styling issues" will mean "big improvement", and "competitive issues" will refer some better specs compared to the Lexus. And, let's all make trips to our local Buick dealer and loudly use the code words -- then maybe, just maybe, we can keep a good car in production and out of the dealer's wife's parking spot.
Wow, that LaCrosse sure has pricing problems.
We also have an Expedition (we have a boat and b/c of the weight and size, that is what we need) that I can use for most of the aforementioned room situations, so I didn't have those kinds of considerations when buying...however, that being said..........I have a son with a huge baseball/catchers bag which is at least, if not larger, and definitely wider, than a golf club bag, so using that as my judge, unless I'm driving more than 2 of us (the poster stated 2 golf club bags so I will assume 2 bags, 2 passengers) then I could easily put down part/all the back seat to transport those 2 golf bags if needed to. Take 2 golf bags with you next time you go and try it if you're serious about buying it! If that was a necessity, I would try it!
As for a week's vacation for a family of 4 or 5....that might be a tough one unless you can pack lighter, but a long weekend you could definitely do. Also, just in my own experience, I have found some nice rolling duffle bags and they hold a lot and don't take up nearly as much room as a traditional suitcase.....that may help if packing for a week's vacation. Also just another observation, if you have kids, there's a lot of room in the back and if they have those smaller kids suitcases (my daughter still does) or maybe even some of the carry-on ones, that could fit in the car in the backseat floor area...just food for thought there....
Happy Shopping!
Maybe so, but the 2 I've seen sell were to me (age 40) and a 23 yr old girl bought a silver CXL
"And to thank you for your continued interest, a special offer on LaCrosse is coming soon—just for you. To take advantage of this offer, visit our registration page, give us a few pieces of information, and then check your mail in the coming weeks."
BTW, thanks to all for the comments and reviews posted here. The LaCrosse is on my short list as I look to buy a new car soon. The trunk space and golf club comments have been helpful too as that is one of my main concerns.
she chose a Lacrosse.
I don't know about the Lacrosse, but with my Acura, once I get as far as the trunk, the ignition is no longer armed. So, if I were as far as the passenger side, no one could just get in the car and drive away. However, with my Acura where the fuel opening is on the driver's side, it might be possible for someone to jump in the car and drive away.
,but the engine will shut off when a certain distance is reached from the key. Don't know how far this is.
I don't know about the Lacrosse, but with my Acura, the engine does not shut off when a certain distance is reached from the transponder. There is simply a warning alarm. Of course, once the engine is shut off, it could not be restarted without the transponder present.
I believe the LaCrosse is the same. I was showing a friend the car, and was standing at the passengers door and he pushed the start button and it said remote not detected.
IMHO, the chrome accents are just enough to look good, w/o being too flashy. But that's the "American" way when it comes to cars.
No - no regrets at all!! Love the car!! For me, this was definitely the better selection....my opinion is that for the $$ you get SO much more with the LaCrosse and it's definitely more upscale feeling. More room, nicer interior, better options, 5 seats, etc.....the look of the LaCrosse is sporty looking as well which was also one of the things I was looking for in a sedan......
Scuba gear. Have you seen the Lincoln C car buick should take a lesson from
Ford ans create a true American Touring sedan that can pull a boat or trailer.
DTS, I assume.

Thank you for pointing that out. And that doesn't sound like an excuse because I can see the physics involved in having the airbags work based on lateral positioning being consistent.
I'll miss the front bench seats.
2014 Malibu 2LT, 2015 Cruze 2LT,
What does your statement mean? I don't understand.
2014 Malibu 2LT, 2015 Cruze 2LT,
Boy am I dating myself!!
And we are still waiting for our car! It was originally scheduled to be built the week of Oct 26th, but has now been pushed back to the week of Nov 9th.
I am worried that our inclusion of the blind-spot sensors is the reason for the delay, but the dealership is not providing any information on the reasons for the delay.
Is anyone else in the same boat? Has anyone found any current information on the blind-spot sensors?
When I found out that the heads up display required the ordering of the HID headlights to the tune of $895 (the same as the sunroof), I said I'll take this one!!!!
Anyhow, I can tell you that it IS worth the wait. You guys will love it. It is a joy to drive every day. Good Luck!!!!
I did ask the dealership if they would be added later and they are checking on it for me, but I am not optimistic.
For far too many years, GM pumped out cars without regard to whether or not they were needed for sales inventory just to keep the factories running. Now they are actually being mindful of inventory requirements and ensuring that there is sales momentum before ratcheting up production. In the process, they create pent-up demand and a sense that their vehicle is an early success.
I wonder if that was not intentional based on dealer orders only of highest priced models nor of Buick shipping only higher priced models, but rather is the fact that others reacted as you and I would (and I have done in the past) and bought lower priced models which leaves highest loaded models in stock.
2014 Malibu 2LT, 2015 Cruze 2LT,
I don't think my comment was unfair. For a company who had to hold out its hands for our (taxpayers & govt.) help to stay afloat, they should be doing their very best to fill orders for a car that has a degree of demand without having to jump through a bunch of hoops only to come out short-handed. What ever happened to customer service for those who are willing and able to pay for their product?
