Used 2009 Buick LaCrosse CXL

The 2009 Buick LaCrosse CXL 4-door sedan offers a refined approach to the full-size family sedan category, emphasizing comfort, smoothness and quiet refinement over sportiness. With its stately exterior lines and a sculpted body, the LaCrosse presents a mature, conservative aesthetic that projects solid, understated luxury. Chrome accents, refined wheel designs and a balanced stance contribute to its premium appearance. Inside, the LaCrosse CXL is a comfortable and accommodating environment. The cabin is spacious, particularly in the rear seats, with ample legroom and headroom for adults. Materials are above average for its class and era—soft-touch surfaces, woodgrain trim, and well-cushioned seats create a welcoming ambiance. The front seats are supportive with good bolstering, and the optional heated or cooled seats available in some models enhance comfort in different seasons. The dashboard layout is intuitive, with large, easy?-to-read instrumentation and logically placed controls for the audio, climate and other amenities. Under the hood, the LaCrosse CXL typically comes equipped with a 3.6-litre V6 engine (with around 255-260 horsepower, depending on the configuration) that delivers smooth, effortless acceleration rather than aggressive performance. The powertrain is well-matched to the car’s character, offering refined pulls and comfortable cruising rather than sporty thrills. The transmission is a six-speed automatic, which shifts smoothly and unobtrusively. Ride quality is a major strength: the suspension setup soaks up bumps and road imperfections with confidence, producing a quiet, composed ride even at higher highway speeds. On the downside, the steering is light and lacks much in the way of direct feedback, meaning the LaCrosse doesn’t feel especially agile or engaging when pushed into sharper turns. But for most everyday driving, it offers a comfortable, composed experience. In terms of features, the CXL trim level brings a good level of standard equipment. Safety features include front-seat side airbags, full-length side curtain airbags and stability control systems. Fuel economy is respectable for its size and power—though not class-leading—with the real benefit coming in the form of comfort and quiet refinement rather than cutting-edge efficiency. Overall, the 2009 Buick LaCrosse CXL is a compelling choice for someone seeking a large, comfortable sedan that emphasizes smooth ride quality, refined interior appointments and understated luxury rather than sporty dynamics or radical styling.
