hi /o/ a distant friend of mine is selling his 2006 buick lacrosse

They're W-body cars, so they're pretty bulletproof. The chassis debuted in 1988 so by 2006, just about all problems were solved. The LaCrosse came with either the bulletproof 3.8L 3800 series 3 V6, or the LY7 3.6L DOHC V6.
Either way a good, reliable buy.

Don't fucking buy it. You're going to run into little stupid fucking problems that are going to make the car undrivable.
Stupid shit man. Stupid shit.
Stray away.

Like what? The only problem W-body cars are known for are blowing transmissions on models with the supercharged V6 or the 5.3L V8, neither of which that LaCrosse has

I'm talking about climate control problems and shorts.
Which I've had my fucking experience with, with W-bodies.

I've had a few W-bodies myself (both from the 1990's) and the only electrical problem I had was when the turn signal switch went. The signals workedd, but in order to get the brake lights to work, I had to pull back slightly on the turn signal stalk. Was apparently a very common problem on gen 1 and gen 1.5 W-body cars

If you buy it you're fucking retarded
>poor gas mileage
>no power
>handles so poorly its actually a safety hazard
also extremely difficult to work on, but you're probably that guy who just takes it to a mechanic anyways

Don't do it, just don't.

Theres a reason the only people you see driving them are senile...

>>13969261
jesus fucking christ OP dont do it.
WHY WOULD YOU EVER SUBMIT YOURSELF TO THAT INFERIOR PIECE OF JUNK?
>>13970295

>>13970373

Then how come /o/ loves its predeccesors so much?

>>13972491
Because those faggots have no clue what they're talking about and have no experience with W-body cars. W-body cars are easy to service, with the exception of cars with the 3.4L DOHC V6 or the 5.3L V8
