Michael Buy it when you are 62 years old.

Don't come and say that Buick is an old mans car because thats just bullshit. I am a Young guy and I want this Lacrosee badly just gorgeous car.

I bought this car recently, it only takes me seconds to make up my mind to buy it, it's so beautiful and the interior is luxury and comfortable, i can't wait to drive it home!!

Buick has REALLY come a long way. This is an impressive, beautiful car.

I purchased a fully loaded 2017 Lacrosse with the premium trim level and couldn't be happier. I absolutely love the way it rides and handles, especially with the sport setting on. It has so many options I'm having a blast learning them all. It is by far the quietest, best riding, and best driving car I have ever owned. It handles like a dream on any road I’ve throw at it, has plenty of power, gets excellent gas mileage and is super comfortable for long trips. And I think it is the most stylish car on the market, not gaudy but sophisticated in its looks and styling. I tested a number of competitive models from Lexus, Kia, Hyundai, Nissan, Acura, BMW and Lincoln and they just didn't compare to this car on features for the price and in many other ways. Anyone wanting a luxurious, quiet, great handling car, with plenty of power may want to take a look at the Lacrosse!

You guys are the first to put a video review of it! Love your dedication!

I frankly like this Buick; the price undercuts all of its European & even Japanese competition. Yes it isn't sporty, but not everybody wants a bone-jarring & stiff ride. Cadillac used to cater to this market, but has since then left it to chase BMW. It is nice to see the traditional large American luxury FWD cruisers still alive, even if the market segment it caters to is small & shrinking.

Great looking car, but the 2010 to 2016 La Crosse is a design masterpiece in its sculpting. But they can't say that, have to be forward thinking.

very nice car, I love the dash design. seat bottoms look nice too.

Beautiful car and color!

Excellent review especially after the 9:30 minute mark, nice car.

This big beautiful Buick gets the same MPG or better as a VW New Beatle. Damn. Bravo GM. Keep it coming!

Roman I can't believe you didn't point out that they brought back the colors in the Buick emblem! This is the first new Buick with the red white and blue shields in a very long time! Looks so much better than the cheap monochrome logo!

The wipers and lower front fascia are learnings from the original Volt. Makes me proud to own one and see that our taxpayer, and the companies investments in the Volt actually did have a real world impact.

I actually love it. I like gm, never too fond of Buick, but this one definitely has my eye.

I have driven the previous model and it is a fantastic car, very quiet, ideal for every day driving without feeling tired. The engine has more than enough power, can be interesting the 1.5 litres with turbo. This car is about quiteness, comfort and entry level luxury.

love the background music

Buick Hit a homerun with this one. Cadillac XTS, Chevy Impala, way to go America you finally have woken up!!!

My god, this looks miles better. Wow!

I'm surprised how much I like it!

Congratulations on creating another generic bubble car in gray, of course!

As an old man in a 24 year old body I have to say I like this car. I would buy mine in black though instead of that Aarp red.

I have a 2012 Buick Verano and I love it! I'm 26, but I think I might consider a used one of this or the Camaro for my next car.

This is a beautiful car I love it in this maroon color and the rear end is seductive lol

I prefer the quiet sedans, but everyone is going to large low profile tires which counter the soft ride. Gonna have to test drive this one. Thanks for the review.

Thanks for the review Roman. The front end looks like they borrowed it from the Cascada, which is a good thing. How do you think the AWD version would stack up against the Hyundai Genesis 3.8 HTRAC? That is a car I am interested in looking at, because I like big sedans, but I live near Seattle where AWD is helpful.

When you drove the car did you detect the start/stop working? I test drove the '17 Lacrosse today and made a few stops and never detected if start/stop was working.

TFL needs to review the tech more. I want to know about the stereo, the heads up display, the USB ports. Step up your tech game TFL. Thats why I enjoy watching Brian Cooley from CNET

GM's 3.6-L is the best they got. They use it in virtually everything and it takes regular unleaded.

Beautiful car

What a beautiful car!

Did they fix the timing cover leaks that have plagued the 3.6 since it came out?

That is very goodlooking.

Thank you I have been getting so sick of every review, even for SUVs, about 0-60 or canyon carving. I'm like there are other people in this world that think about other things from their cars. I am not a Lexus person but I purchased an ES for a quick sale but fell in love with how soft and serene the driving experience was. That kind of luxury has its place and is very valid as these cars start to ride ruffer and ruffer. Buick seems to have made a really nice proposition with this car.

This a product of the media controlling people’s minds, we are told performance and sport are what is hot even though on a daily drive you will never need that. People need quiet, soft, comfortable ride with good fuel economy.

The new Buick Lacrosse is really nice mid size luxury car!

Buick bout 6 years ago said they wanted to get a younger buyer and their cars reflected that. Nowadays I feel they have regressed back to their old ways of design. It's nice but no one younger than 50 is going to want to buy this...

The new model is a huge improvement but I prefer the classic Buick waterfall grill on the older model. Hoping that it comes back for the mid cycle refresh.

Hey Roman I have a idea for you guys for a future mash up, 2017 Buick lacrosse vs 2016 Chevy Malibu premier

Where were you guys filming? Looked like Oregon to me.

14.2 cubic feet.... That's relatively small for a full sedan. But the styling is unique and luxurious

Hey Fast Lane, tell me how the ride quality, I realize you touched on comfort, but I think that is from an inside view of the cabin cockpit. Compared to the 2016 the 2017 doesn't look to have as much suspension travel distance, how do they compare for soaking up the bumps. Thanks.

I'm lovin' it...

Well done,I like it much better than new Accord!

Nice step up. Back side looks similar to an Azera though

This new Buick reminds me of the cab forward Chrysler designs of the 90's

are you in seattle or tacoma washington in this video? looks so much like places i know here.

Roman, you remind me of an American Jeremy Clarkson, while being more respectable. I really enjoy your reviews

Now only if Buick got off their butts and finally remake the Riviera. I had a 1997 Riv and my dad had a '67 and I loved my modern styling along with his raw power. I would buy one of Buick ever started making the Riviera again.

Well, it's not intended to compete with anything high-end Europe luxury car. That said, being 1/2 the price of any similarly equipped European luxury car is actually pretty freaking impressive. In the last few years, I've really become less and less impressed with European luxury car and now see them as disgustingly overpriced, while these value luxury cars like the Genesis and the Lacrosse have blown me away with how much they offer for so little money.

European cars are now far over rated than ever. The majority of made in North America are just as good and better in many cases. It is too bad we don't have but one luxury automaker here, Cadillac. Lincoln just isn't cutting it yet. I know they are trying, but I think I remember them saying they don't want performance luxury. They wanted to be the Lincoln of the past focusing on comfort and conveniences. That leaves Chrysler products, which if you take out the 300m, there is no other luxury in the US.

From the profile angle at first glance it almost has a Tesla thing going on there. I'd imagine it would be very different looking in person but some styling queues (or trends) indicate that Buick is at least looking at other makes. Good job Buick and GM! BTW I'm still a Ford/Subaru guy but I'd add a GM to the list for my next car/SUV/crossover buy....

those door mirrors look like the old school bullet sport mirrors from the 70s-80s

When are they gonna grow a par and build the Buick Avista? You shoulda asked him WTF? "Hey, WTF man?"

It looks like a mix of the new Impalas and a Jaguar... looks nice

Is this video been made in Seattle, Tacoma, WA ?

They made the car lower, but the (probably older) buyer who is looking for comfort and luxury will not necessarily be thrilled about that.

i hope they decide to bring the turbo 1.5 liter model over to the states

3.6 engine had problems with timing chain not able to last over 100k, hope they fixed it

so it's basically a stretched Opel Insignia, can't be bad at all. Though for a car that size, a V8 or blown V6 would be a nice extra
