    Well, my dad would freak out. That all he got was buicks. Before he died he gave me a buick. I don't remember what it was. But it had low low miles. I fixed it up.I drove it for 10 years. He's probably looking down and freaking out. He knows I will be getting one and this. Color.

    Great review! My wife and I bought an Encore ST a few months ago and we absolutely love it! The engine is surprisingly peppy and the 9 speed transmission is buttery smooth. I've never been asked about a car I drive more than this one. (my wife also loves the straight forward radio and climate controls)

    I've had my 2020 since they first came out and I LOVE it!!! I commute 60 miles a day to school and it is shockingly peppy with the 1.3. I narrowed it down to the GX and the CX30 when I bought mine, and the GX rode so much nicer. For me, it was all the torque in the 1.3- this thing can cruise at 80mph all day without even shifting gears up hill thanks to that turbo. For me, I needed a highway cruiser with my commute and it's PERFECT!

    In 2021, I decided to lease my first Buick Encore GX, and it has been a fantastic experience. As my lease approaches its end in August, I'm seriously considering buying this same model in the identical color. One of the standout features of the new Encore GX is the innovative blind spot warning lights on both sides, which have provided an extra layer of safety and awareness on the road. Additionally, the futuristic information center inside the car has been a delight to use, providing me with all the key details and controls in a clear and intuitive manner. I can't wait to continue enjoying all the great features of this car.

    The exterior changes grow on you. Looks exceptionally well on the Envision. I personally wouldn’t go for the Encore, but it’s a better deal to go for the Envision with the Cad specs. If you want a smaller SUV, you’d have better luck with a Toyota or Mazda, I agree.

    I like the way Joe notices things that others don't. Joe noticed the way the hood formations just disappeared as you got up to the windshield. I'm impressed that the motorcycle sized engine in this car can go 120 mph. Not so big on licorice flavored candy, but I have had the Italian licorice flavored liqueur Sambuca, and I really enjoyed that. 😊

    I currently have my 7yr old Regal Turbo Sport. It’s given me 50,000 wonderful and completely hassle-free miles. I mean legit, hassle-free. I’ve done NOTHING in 5yrs of ownership (bought it used) other than tires, brakes, and fluids. Just rolled 71,000 miles.
    Though I’ll be honest, it’s beginning to give me some transmission problems with very rough shifts and some transmission bouncing/rattling at random times. And the turbo sounds like it’s dead. But hell it’s time for a new car anyway. I’ve loved this car every minute that I’ve owned it. I’m seriously considering leasing this new GX Avenir

    The first time i seen one on the road it was White and i seen a logo on the back looked like Metal Stripes Thought the back of the SUV was nice looking didn't know it was a Buick until I walked down my street and was walking looking at the GM & Buick Models then i seen the back of the Buick i said to my daughter that was the same back as the one i seen the other day
    They also had a couple years old Buick with the Logo Badge then the New Badge i like it
    looks European from the Back. Still I would rather see Pontiac any day over Buick What a Small Engine looks the same size as a Honda Fit Engine
    Looks Hot & Humid there
    I am saying to myself How did you come from being a Teacher to a Cool You Tuber for Cars
    what a change what does your former Students think about you now also former teachers
    You are saying is this better than a Mazda . well for me I loved the Mazda back in the late 80's right up to 2015 then the rest went whack
    I love the White Shade in that Buick at least it's not Black
    Licorice I like the Cherry or Strawberry not the black
    Also i notice they have Dodge Neon's Mexico and Ford Mondeo i think China so why not USA & CANADA very odd not everyone wants a Truck or Suv . Myself i would love a Jeep or a Car

    Looks like an elderly person's car impersonating a "sporty" vehicle with some budget thrown in the mix. Nice try, smart to focus on amazing cameras for those aging eyes like we all have, but underwhelming. Nothing here says, "wow, that stands out from the crowd." Just....NPC with a graphics upgrade. Its a shame given where Buick used to be. Dodge is out of the muscle car game, so how much would it cost to bring back a regal gsx or grand national package based on the dead camaro platform? What do I know except if they executed it well it would give the company that edge theyre aming for. Going after the Germans and Japanese? This doesn't cut it.

    No car should have shiny black plastic on the outside. It just looks cheap.

    I'd take the CX-30 in a heartbeat. Much better car. Anyone at Buick who think is competing with a BMW is delusional. It's a Chevy Trailblazer with slightly nicer trim and sound insulation from GM Korea. In fact the only Buick I'd consider is the Envista. It's cheap and not pretending to be something it's not.

    28 mpg's on the highway ? I get that and more with my 6 cylinder Lexus and it certainly doesn't strain like a 3 cylinder. No thank you

    You need a stadium full of psycho therapists if you're considering BUYING this vehicle. Built in south korea with a 3 cylinder engine also made in south korea mated to a cvt transmission made in mexico!?!? That combination is a disaster waiting to happen. These things will be burning oil and possibly blowing head gaskets before you know it!
    Lease it, yes, and let it be GM's problem - there certainly will be plenty of them
