2010 Buick LaCrosse CXS
2010 Buick LaCrosse CXS - Buick Fullsize Luxury Sedan Review - Automobile Magazine
This is a surprisingly nice near-luxury sedan that is a great complement to the Enclave crossover.

Thanks to Buick's continued success in China, we in that backwater market known as the United States get the first new mid-size sedan from the brand in more than twenty years. And it really is new. The "W-Body" platform, which debuted in the 1988 Regal, is gone, as is the 3800 V-6 engine, which dates back to the early 1960s. Instead, we have two (soon to be three) direct-injection engines and the same architecture that underpins the highly regarded, European-market Opel Insignia.inline_mediumwraptextright29297961/reviews/editors_notebook/0908_2010_buick_lacrosse_cxs0908_03_z+2010_buick_laCrosse_cXS+front_three_quarter_view.jpgTrue
