I'm looking at the Buick Verano in 2013 or 2014. I'm having a hard time finding long term reliabailty because this car is so low volume.

Buick has repeatedly been in the top 10 most reliable cars for decades now. Great cars.
>>
>>15056781
It's an upgraded Chevrolet Cruze. Pretty reliable from what I've heard.
>>
Opel Astra with a bodykit, never heard many major complaints.

The rear on these are ugly, which is a shame since the rest of it looks nice.

the rear's the best part. Esp on the black ones.
>>
>GM
It's unreliable and can't turn. Buy a Civic.

I test drove a couple Veranos. The things seem to be the best value in luxury cars.

$15k for couple year old luxury car with low miles? I think I just might take the plunge.

I have this insane desire to buy a Buick Regal and try to make it as close to Opel Insignia as possible. It would certainly mind fuck a lot of people on the street.
>>
>>15059506
That's a Vauxhall badge
>>
>>15059506
You know that opel is shit-tier in yurop?
You know that beeing european doesn't make a car brand premium?
Right?
>>
>>15059626
It's not even considered a European car here in Europe. It's been owned a part of GM for almost eighty years.
>>
>>15059506
retard detected

also you guys are aware that brands such as Buick and Lincoln statistically top the "reliability" charts because they're driven by older people who don't push or abuse their cars that hard, nor do they drive as much? it has nothing to do with the shit Opel/GM assembly
>>
>>15059727
Which country? In eastern yurop opels and ferds were considered "german" for long time till late 90's
>>15056781
If what I'm looking at is rebadged opel astra then you're mistaking luxury with some cheap gimmicks dripped in plastic.
>>
>>15059733
I may be wrong but wouldn't they be higher because they cherry pick the best that GM has in their inventory then refine it a bit more?
>>
>>15056781
You do realize it's just a rebadged and overpriced chevy cruze right?

Consumer Reports tested it.

The first year of production was the best year for reliability. It has since declined to merely average. Find a low-mileage 2012 and you're set.

Here's a version without the row headings cropped out, my bad.
>>
>>15056994
>>15057080
Actually the rear makes it a unique design.

How do you read a chart like this? I never got it any time though.
>>
>>15062045

The dots:
full red is the best rating / most reliable.
An empty circle is average, compared against all cars of the same year.
Full black is worst rating / least reliable.
An * means that they didn't have a big enough sample size, or that year wasn't popular enough to bother testing.

The columns: Each column represents one specific model year of the car, except the one labeled "trouble spots" - that one is row headings.

The Rows: The cars get ratings based on how many repairs are needed as they age. Repairs are categorized into 16 different "Trouble Spot" categories.

The 2nd from bottom line "Used-Car verdicts" is the overall reliability ranking for that particular model year of the car. It's weighted based on how much the various repairs cost, so that a single bad category with expensive repairs will still sink the entire cars rating, even if it's reliable in all the other categories. If you look at nothing else, look at this line.

The new-car prediction: On the page by popular demand. A meaningless prediction for how the current years model will do.

>>15059506
It'd literally be a case of swapping grilles and badging.
Just don't get the GS, as it has the OPC/VXR bodykit but not the OPC/VXR engine.
