      I inherited 1999 lasabra limited from adopted grandma 20 years ago. It has been best car ever. Has 145000 miles on it and gets great gas mileage on highway, like 27 mpg. Change oil every 5000 miles use synblend. Put numerous sets of tires on it. CD player and cassette player still work. A\C needs adding Coolent every summer( cheap fix) fyi. Original wheels and I always buy WW tires as that is how it came in 1999. Family all love to borrow it when their car is in shop. Great highway cruiser. Never wrecked.…

    • Love These Cars

      Just some background information: I love these cars. My current Lesabre is a 1998 Limited. I also had a 2004 and 2005 in the past. I currently own many vehicles and altogether have owned probably close to 30 cars at this point in my 11 years of driving. I keep going back to these cars. Purchased the 1998 from the second owners, bought new by an elderly couple who ran the car back and forth to Florida. Very well maintained and pampered by all owners including myself. Car has just over 80k miles. Interior is flawless. Exterior is free of dents and scratches. Absolutely no rust. Immaculate undercarriage. Visibility is great, no blind spots. 30+ mpg on the highway. Seats are like sitting on pillows. Very comfortable and roomy car. So simple and convenient to work on. No need to disassemble half the car to replace one part. I love the floaty ride you get from the Buick "dynaride" air suspension. I love the square dash and the warning lights being located up near the defrosters. I like how the dash wraps around and continues into the front door panels. People may consider this a grandpa car but as long as I'm happy, that's all that matters. I have friends, co-workers, and myself who have cars $70,000 and up but we all really enjoy this car. No leaks, no warning lights, no issues whatsoever, I would drive this car cross country right now. No vehicle is 100% perfect, these cars are no exception. These 3800 motors are excellent, ask anyone who has one. They do have a couple flaws. They have small "L" shaped plastic " elbows" that coolant flows through. There are two of them on either side of the belt tensioner as coolant does flow through the housing of the serpentine belt tensioner. These are known to deteriorate from age and engine heat. You can buy a pair of aluminum ones for under $15.00 as a permanent fix. Also, any GM car with the 3800 motor will more than likely need intake gaskets and/or the upper intake plenum replaced. The intake plenum is plastic and can melt around the egr port or warp from engine heat causing coolant leaks. They do make an aftermarket upgraded intake plenum to correct this. It's not the end of the world. I had a very minor coolant leak starting on my 1998. I'm a bookkeeper - not a mechanic and I decided to replace my intake plenum along with the best upper and lower intake gaskets I could buy. It was very easy after watching several videos and concluding how I was going to do it. My best suggestion is to check these faults out before you buy the car or just go ahead and replace them anyhow as preventative maintenance especially if you are keeping the car.…

    • Very Reliable, Safe and Durable

      I've had two of these cars in my lifetime this one is a '96 and the other a '95 and I hardly ever had problems breaking down or leaving me stranded. It's technically considered a classic now and although there's some rust underneath it and a crack in the fender it has no engine problems, no leaks, no ticks, or anything! Runs like a top! This '96 Buick has a 2006 Pontiac V.6 3.8 L motor in it which is the same size motor as the original. If you treat your car good, your car will be good to you. Love this car. Reliable. Dependable. Efficient. Effective. Safe. Easy-to-drive.…
