2002 Buick LeSabre - Custom
Pros: SEAT COMFORT
Cons: Quality and fit. Shifting is rough when changing speeds on hiway
Advice: Do not expect 29 miles per guallon on the road at hiway speeds
Car was very Comfortable to enter and exit. Seats are high and car is nice to drive, Steering is looser than I am used to so car wanders a little. Transmission is not the smoothest. Milage was at 21 on the hiway and less in town. Power was suffient but not outstanding. The interior fit was poor as cloth was coming loose because it was cut too short. Other trim did not line up good. -
2002 Buick Park Avenue - Base
Pros: ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION
Cons: NONE
Advice: IF YOU CAN AFFORD THE EXTRA COST BUY THE LIMITED WITH ALL THE EXTRAS FEATURES.
I just returned from a trip to FLORIDA and i must say it was very enjoyable ride. I averaged almost 28 miles per gal. Did not take any oil, and drove 700 miles the first day and felt fine at end of day. This is a great road care. -
2002 Buick LeSabre - Custom
Pros: The 3800 engine .. none better
Cons: ... can't think of anything ....
Advice: This is a proven car with the best V6 drivetrain made.
This was the car I was going to buy ... if I didn't buy the Rendezvous ... I test drove a few LeSabres .. very nice ride ... smooth ... quiet ... powerful... The 3800 engine I now is the closest thing you can get to a V8 ... I have two other 3800 engines in my driveway ...one is 11 years old and the other is 10 years old and the engines are original and running better than most new engines .. it is very smoothe quiet and powerfull ...and durable. The ride of the LeSabre is superior to the Rendezvous but I like sitting up high and the room of the Rendezvous ... .. I would recommend the LeSabre to anyone who wants a proven car that will last ... and not rust out like most foreign cars and is safe... ........ also ..... you will put a lot more Americans to work. -
