What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Buick Enclave

Price of the Buick Enclave: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2009 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 price of CX was better than the mid-level Pilot that I was considering while the included features rival the top of the line Pilot.
2008 4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Best price relative to similar competitors
Price of the Buick Enclave: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 The price seemed a bit high, however, this is a top notch vehicle.
2010 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Far too expensive. We looked at feature to feature and same year and the Enclave was anywhere from 5-10 K more.
2009 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Higher than most
2008 4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Price was higher than the van, mostly I believe due to higher demand for crossovers than vans.
2008 4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 5 - 7 thousand more then murano
