Many people think Buick only makes cars that appeal to the oldest of drivers. But it may be time to reassess that opinion. With the Enclave crossover-SUV, Buick shows that its vehicles can not only be comfortable and quiet but also, dare we say, cool. The 2008 Buick Enclave isn't Buick's first foray into the world of crossover SUVs but it is the brand's strongest effort yet. Upscale styling, a distinctive interior and an obsessive focus on noise reduction distinguish the 2008 Buick Enclave from the Saturn Outlook and GMC Acadia, which share its underpinnings.

I had the oppertunity to drive this truck it is a very nice truck to drive very smooth and quiet. Buick is really steping up their game.

I can never make up my mind on what my next vehicle should be.
The Enclave was always a vehicle that I would simply notice every time on the road.
It must be the choice that was in front of me the whole time.
Despite me thinking I, a young adult, need a "cool" or sporty and fast sedan or coupe, I just might find that the Enclave actually has the needs I didn't know I wanted.
Noise reduction in the interior, Big and roomy, Long-trip comfort, Luxury interior (I strongly dislike today's sports car interiors) Luxury exterior (beautiful boxy design and chrome accenting)
Perfect for me who likes to buy nice things for himself (Luxury), take long and relaxing roadtrips (Comfort), haul lots of baggage or passengers (Space) and BLAST his music inside (Sound Reduction from the outside).
Im so in love with this car!! So sexy, love this test color. Who needs a Lexus/Mercedes??
So Hot that My Eyes are Burning
6 people are brotherhood of Steel fans.
my grandparents bought one, 10,000 dollars less than their tahoe and they dont regret it at all. wish i had one
I love my Buick Enclave 2008 .
Yea? Im looking at buying one...like tomorrow. Its an 08. Brand new transmission....all leather....i think its soooo pretty!!!
Bought one 2 weeks ago. Looooooooove it. Best suv on the road
How is the enclave treating you today 1 year later?
How is the reliability? Considering a 2009 with just over 100000miles
I just bought a 2008 Buick enclave. Had a miss between 1st and 2nd gear. They said needs tranny flush. I read reviews of it having a bad transmission. Does anyone have any experience?
L Momma Bear Martin never get a transmission flush
buick design is getting a lot better than most companies today
Took me 6 months to decide on a new vehicle. Drove my brand new White CXL-2 home yesterday. It's going to take me another 6 months to fully learn all of this cars functions and controls. I have to look at the tac to tell if the engine is running, this car is that quiet. Drives and handles like a dream. So far I'm satisfied with my decision. Lot's of room in the back with the seats folded. That's what made me look at this vehicle in the first place.
So, what’d ya think pal?
During the early years of production, It was originally going to be on the Theta platform but moved to the Lambda platform instead
Wow. Just...Wow.
Our Buick just arrived yesterday off the ship from the mainlind, and wow...I am just speechless.
It is so nice! We ended up getting our car with Carbon Metallic Black and with an Ebony Interior (CXL2 model).
It is just a beautiful and stylish car, as it is so big, yet looks small! I love it. Oh, and my dad jsut drove in the garage with it...what a coincidence! Time to have a drooling session with the car!
Hows the car
I love my 2009 enclave!
How is that truck running today?
Why did they stop the rendezvous name plate?
is buick a luxury car brand?
the engine on the 2008-present Buick Enclave
Engine
3.6 L LY7 V6 (275 hp)
3.6 L LLT V6 (286 hp)
I love the enclave
and the 2009 enclave has 288 hp
Just test drove this; When you accelerated, it was weak.. I realy like the front lights.
A lot of cars have headlights which have little motors which turn up to 15 degrees in each direction at speed with the steering wheel, so you can see around bends.
hahaha! i know! its so quiet!
we have a CXL-2 with the keyless starter. the engine was so quiet that i couldn't figure out how to drive off after inserting the key. i thought that the engine would shut off, but it was simply that quiet!!
What exactly do they mean by headlamps that turn with the steering wheel? I am confused.
@peanutchopper; I take it you are an expert on the subject.
This is the first Buick that I actually like n i not a senior citizen.
if i dont get the new camaro, i'll certainly get one of these.
@lexusES350h...It might be ugly, but it's not cheap at all.
I own a saturn outlook and it's the same car for a lesser price.
@bestamerica How come you only do it on videos of American cars?
Now that Buick has been labeled the most reliable car brand by J.D. Power & Associates, these should sell like hot cakes. Buick is really reinventing themselves. Check out the 2010 LaCrosse.
Спасибо за ролик, это очень отличный и красивый авто для семьи, жаль что в России их мало, я бы себе такой взял, альтернативы ему в этом классе не вижу, мне думается, что американские авто до сих пор лучше по качеству и вообще!
a very nice suv point blank......i do think that GM should can the gmc version though....the buick and traverse are just fine..
the seats do not tilt backwards!
@bestamerica Okay. Keep up the good work... Where are you from, anyhow?
Is the dude speaking the short guy from the new U.S. version of Top Gear??
total redesign in 2013, but no v-8:(
nice car but can i afford it?
@broadbent48 i agree
@LorenzoMoore1000 no it shouldn't. buick needed a good car to save them from ending up like pontiac and Saturn. Plus if it was a Cadillac, you would probably pay $20,000 to $30,000 more for it
@bhiml Entry-level luxury, like Volkswagen and Mercury (R.I.P.).
@poskyflyer so it 30 days so no sales tax!!
Did not like the way the all wheel drive shifted in and out and the way it steered. I gave back the Enclave less than 1 year.
I think this should have been the New SRX.
@broadbent48 , ide much rather have this than a jag!!
I like the look and price but it is the size of a whale
Right dis car is huge feel like I'm in big bubble owner of buick enclave
@FromThe3PointLine no its en-clay-ve
yeah but the jag crossover would be an extra 20000$
@bestamerica Because it doesn't have amber turning signals, right? I see you on ever video! Weirdo!
Do NOT buy a used 2008 Enclave. The transmission can't find the gears and you'll go through plenty of catalytic converters. I was so happy to dump that heap. Subsequent years must have been much better---either that or i just landed the sourest of lemons.
It's a crossover? it's too big for a crossover in my opinion.
CoreyForeside,
'
that is good,,,
thank,,,
i am still dont like any vehicles without 2 amber yellow lights, wrong gas in hole on right passage side, block front grille, 2 wrong amber yellow lights on front headlights next grille, wrong price tag,,,
i am doing good judge and good wise better than automakers
en-claw-ve
not en-clayve
I prefer it in the brown color but i would never buy it.
CoreyForeside,
'
both americans and foreigns vehicles,,,
mostly americans vehicles,,,
some foreigns vehicles
My mom Mrs. Bland likes the Buick Enclave.
And only.......40 grand
I like it's looks but is the size of a whale
@gmman010983 I think that GMC should have went instead of Pontiac
No
oh my god this car is more expensive than the chrysler aspen 5.7 L Hemi V8 335 HP 370 LB-F 7-8 passengers 4x4 can tow 9000 lbs and costed only 45.000 $
Lol... Imma stick with my opinion.
@stovermagic HAHAHA

@broadbent48 wash your mouth out !
The acadia is still number 1
