1988 Buick LeSabre review from North America
"A great car for an 18-year-old's budget"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission needed replacing after roughly 13400 miles.
General comments?
This car is surprisingly fast, and it handles quite well.
The seats are very comfortable, and the cabin is easily roomy enough for a man of 6' 4".
The only problem I ever had with this car was its transmission.
