Never would've thought we'd own a Buick...

[bamabear82]

but we do. Wife was wanting some sort of small SUV and after driving several different ones (Juke, Rogue, Patriot, Captiva), she decided on a 2014 Buick Encore with like 25,000 mi. and, I must say, I'm pretty impressed with it so far. Damn thing has just every option you could want besides a sunroof and is averaging 30 mpg, which is about 5 mpg better than her Sonata was getting. Works out pretty good with her driving 50 miles each way to work and back everyday.

They are neat little buggers.

I was in the same boat but I bout a 2008 Lucerne with everything but a moonroof. Fucking love the car.

I have looked at those.
Doesn't it have a 2.0 turbo engine or some damn thing.

Nice car.

For some reason I'm thinking it's a 1.4 turbo but it could be a 2.0. It's a lot quicker than I expected for such a small engine.

I was in an Enclave last week and was impressed with it.

We're going to look at one when it's time for the next car.

Fuckin' Buick.

Getting old is a mean bitch.

Looks slow lol

Old people....

Yup... Buy Buick = You're Old.

That's what I used to think but their newer lineup blew pretty much every other we looked at out of the water.

I ain't mad. We all get old. It's just that when you're looking at Buicks, you know you've arrived!

I just knew she was gonna go with a Nissan but, after driving everything, she (and me too) just couldn't pass up on the Encore. It's been a week and I'm still surprised lol.

2 clients had (one still has) an Enclave and gave me their 2 cents. They really liked the drive and all the serious stuff. Both had only one same complaint about the dash buttons n sech being too cheapy and one said the dash started rattling.

Still makes a lot more sense than luxury shit that costs a lot and is basically the same.

 

[williewilliejuan]

Couldn't do it. I took getting old in a completely different direction.

Traded in my Explorer on a BMW M4.

Fuck the kids and their "car seats".

I had a Buick when I was 22. Much like this one, but I yanked the '78 350 and dropped in a '72 455.
The pig would fly then.

Buick on my wish list

Buick on my wish list

I've driven one. Fast car. Quiet too.

Doesn't like corners much. And the seats suck balls, no lateral support at all.
