    Very cool video on the iconic nameplate of Buick! My first car was a 1964 Buick special deluxe and I also used to daily drive a 1992 Buick century deluxe. I always had a soft spot for Buick. It would be cool if Buick brought back the iconic Riviera nameplate or the Grand national. The interesting thing about Buick I work as an emergency roadside technician and the only issues I have seen is just people needing a jump start and everybody I've talked to who've owned a newer Buick have always raved about them! Buick is one of the unsung heroes with great brand loyalty. My favorite Buick has always been the 65 Riviera Grand sport. Back in 97 I was able to drive one and I cannot believe the wildcat 425 motor with the dual four barrel setup.

      Part of it is low expectations. Buick has the oldest buyers of any mainstream brand, and those folks are old enough to remember the dismal reliability of cars from the 1960s through the 1980s. Any modern car seems exceptionally reliable when you grew up driving those.

    I think your final thoughts are spot on. I had considered this last year and opted for something else in roughly the same price point but, feel what I got would last much longer. The engine is too small in my opinion and likely will not hold up over time

    It is interesting watching this in the UK, where a 1.3 3 cylinder is nothing unusual. It is good to see as most american cars that you review have engines that would be taxed to hell. V8s or v6s are exotic here no matter what platform they are in. I have a mk 3 miata and a Dacia 900cc 3 cylinder. Both really good cars for very different reasons. And i know that I will attract comments for saying the dacia is a great car, but i dont care. Keep up the good work, as i love your your channel.

    When I saw the title of this video, I thought it was going to be super flattering to the Encore. Turned out to be very different.
    For whatever it’s worth, I actually quite like the Chevy Trailblazer, though, that shares this platform. Preferably the one with the 9-speed automatic. Maybe it’s just the more distinct looks?

    Cue the "Buick is for older people who have blue hair" comments yet according to google the average buyer of a new car is 53 years old. My wife is on her 3rd Encore lease because they are dirt cheap (under $200 a month) quiet, good gas mileage and the hatchback design is brilliant. The leases are all $0 down unlike other brands that have you pay $2,000-$4,000 up front. Also, the turbo engine has good pick up to 45mph but does suffer at highway passing.
