In this video I give a full in depth tour of a 2006 buick Lucerne V8. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.

This car truly marks the end of an era for Buick. I would say its a safe bet to say that you will NEVER see another vehicle made with Buick badges have a V8 engine. What a sad time we live in.

@jonathan7thno While head gaskets in every engine can leak the ones in the 2006-2011 Lucerne and Cadillac DTS will not leak from the problems associated with the Northstar in the 1990's, as for your friends 06 Lucerne, there are more than a dozen things that can cause an engine to "run hot", and if it really happened to be the head gasket it wouldn't have been because of what the problem used to be, as for the Lucerne in this video, just because Kyle said it had just come in doesn't mean anything, the dealership probably got the car in on trade, you know how almost every person who buys a new car trades in their old one, beside the fact that it only takes 5 minutes of running for a car to show signs of over heating, to which this car clearly wasn't. As for dealerships wanting to sell V8 models before the V6 models, that couldn't be any further from the truth, the V8 and V6 models were designed to fit the needs of two totally different people, a salesmen would have taken into account the budget of a buyer and what their preferences were, if a customer came in with a 15,000 dollar budget and only wanted a car that drove nice, and say there was a Lucerne V6 for 14,500, and a Lucerne V8 for 19,800, a salesmen would have bought out the car closer to the customers budget, why would the salesmen spend the time trying to convince a customer to buy a car they cant afford when he/she could sell them the car they fell comfortable buying in half the time and move onto a new sale. Since you clearly do a bad job of pretending to know something about this car and engine, I will tell that that the reason Northstars of the 90's and early 2000's blew head gaskets was because of a weak bolt design that would eventually cause the head to separate from the block causing the engine to blow a head gasket, but in 2004 Cadillac used a new bolt design and the problem was gone, not to say it was impossible to blow a head gasket as like I said before every engine made can blow a head gasket. Northstars are great engines that will last up to 400,000 miles, it's such a good engine that even with the head gasket issues of the 90's the Northstar was featured on the Ward's 10 best engines list for 3 consecutive years form 1995 to 1997.

@Mrjmoyer78 Your right about that, I wonder why Buick ,Pontiac and Cadillac uses/used Northstars in their big luxury cars there pretty loud. The Northstar is suppst to be a "High Performance engine" that has to be run hard to prevent oil consumption and carbon build up. It doesn't really make since to me why a motor like that was planted in a luxury car...If I spend $50,000 on luxo car I don't expect to hear much engine noise & have to drive like its a sports car IMO.

these 17" rims (RPO N75) were originally in a painted nickel finish; but unfortunately over time the paint fades and chips off leaving them discolored and ratty looking; my own CXL V6 has the Chrome Plated version (RPO PA2) and they usually have the dreaded corrosion peeling around the beads which means you're constantly putting air in the tires.
