  • LaCrosse was discontinued — parts will get harder over time

Analysis

The LaCrosse Premium AWD is the full-size Buick sedan at its best: 310-hp 3.6-liter V6, 9-speed automatic, all-wheel drive, heated steering wheel, head-up display, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and Buick’s QuietTuning cabin that genuinely rivals luxury brands for road noise. The dealer notes brand-new tires and fresh tint, and the photos show a straight, clean black sedan on their lot.

The price is the reason this is a BUY. At $14,699 with 117,805 miles, it sits under comparable Premium listings: a 120k-mile Premium asks $15,179, a 99k-mile example $15,998, an 81k-mile one $18,500, and Edmunds puts dealer-retail clean near $17,955. Buy Right’s own disclaimer notes online prices are cash promotional prices, so confirm the out-the-door number before you celebrate — but at the listed price, this is one of the better large-sedan values in Fort Wayne. Big, quiet, AWD, V6, under $15k. That combination is getting rare.

Market Comparison

Market check: Edmunds values a clean 2018 LaCrosse Premium AWD at about $17,955 dealer retail. Comparable Premium listings: $14,400 (110,473 mi), $15,179 (120k mi), $15,998 (99k mi), $18,500 (81k mi). At $14,699 with 117,805 miles, this car is at or below the market band — fair money for the loaded V6 AWD sedan.
