The Matchbox Road Museum is located in Newfield, NJ. It has a massive collection of Matchbox cars and was established by Everett Marshall III in 1992 from his hobby. MatchboxRoadMuseum/
This is why classic cars keep disappearing, thanks to the critics
Love 5hese cars thank you 😊 for adding these classic cars
3:36 Hmm, he didn't mention the passive rear steering.
I had a 2003 LeSabre regret letting it go
That very car now has 400,000 miles on it
Who would have known that 24 years later, this would become one of the most reliable used cars a person can buy
I’m convinced these late 90s-early 2000s big sedans will become collectible classics. They’re the last gasp of the American car industry
Call My Uncle had a 1999 first year came out. Interior was very weak on the ceiling part of the car and the leather was already chopping up and peeling on the door the second year. But otherwise that car was awesome far as performance and looks
The trans in the T6 version was not good yes. Otherwise great large sedan. Have owned a 04 2.5t AWD myself.
Volvo S80 is comfortable, engines fantasitics and solid transmission
Fools don't Kno bout these Lesebres
Fools don't Kno bout these Lesebres..supercharged 3800.
My wife and I bought one of these, in the gold color like the one featured. It was a really nice car and we never had any problems with it. Eventually replaced it with a Lucerne and replaced that with a LaCrosse. All were good cars but then Buick stopped making sedans, so my wife now drives an Infiniti Q50. Would have bought her a caddy sedan but the dealership didn't have any.
3:33 That instrument cluster looks kind of odd.
when did this car become cool xD
Probably one of the most reliable vehicles to ever come out of GM. The last generation LeSabre has a solid reputation of turning HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of miles with minimal service or repairs. 250-500k odometer readings is not uncommon.
Still driving my very first car... and 03' LeSabre Custom. I've had it for almost 10 years now.
Coming from the UK, we had one of these as a rental for our family holiday in 2005 and what an absolute pile of garbage! Hideously ugly and wallowed about all over the place with the steering accuracy of a cargo ship
I love mine, and it only has 51,000 miles on it! It's a dream to drive.
I owned two of these generation LeSabre. Definitely wouldn't mind having one again.
I had a 2000 Lesabre Custom as my first car. With a front bench seat. Man I miss that car. If they were still making them I would buy one today. More comfortable and nicer on a road trip than the suv I have now.
Sedans and wagons are the best. Crossovers are horrible garbage
It's not the Grand national, but Buick was the only car company who knows exactly how to make V6 engine, powered luxury cars, something the even the imports and domestic cars couldn't do.
its GM not buick Gm owns buick pontiac and chevy
cause the buick 3800was in the monte carlo ss and pontiac gp the I wish they supercharged the lesabre like they did the gtp.
@@krayzietj Buick supercharged the Regal GS and the Park Avenue Ultra. The Park Avenue is a real sleeper with the supercharger.
Honda and Toyota make great v6s. So does Mercedes and Nissan. Ford had a great V6 too, the vulkan or whatever. There are plenty of great v6s motors out there. But the 3800 is one of the best.
I will admit it, the 2000-05 Buick LeSabres are still some of the nicest looking cars of recent history. I could see this car becoming a classic in the future.
The 90s LeSabres, Park Avenues, and Roadmasters are gorgeous too.
@@MistahJigglah I would argue the 90s lesabres and park aves are better looking than the 2000s cars. I have a 99 lesabre and the pin stripes, front little windows, and mostly flat rear window sills look better to me. The newer lesabres have better serviceability such as a drain plug on the transmission and the battery under the rear seats. The 2000s cars also have rear disk brakes instead of drums.
Agree, the final gen lesabre and park avenue are aging very well and still turn heads on the road if you have a nicer example. Previous gens although looked good at the time, look very dated now.
@@flipdry I won't argue, my dream car is a 93 LeSabre before they changed the manifold. Though if I got one, I'd expect to have to rebuild everything, repaint, and reupholster it, it'd still be cheaper than a new car, while looking infinitely better than anything made in over a decade.
I love that style that was the best Buick LeSabre from gm my mom had one. It was a 2004 model
These great cars were the go-to sedan for livery drivers. Now they can be bought real cheap with a lot of life left in them. Got my 2000 limited in 2014 with 125K and a few cheap and easy to fix issues. Cost me a total of $1,800 after issues were repaired. 100K and 8 year later I sold it for $2,200. So comfortable and quiet, so I bought another LeSabre project car in a different color. It's usually risky buying an 18 year old car, but this 2nd one is working out great.
Remember the Lesabre was in Bad Boys 2? It was destroyed along with other cars.
I just bought one for 1500 is that a good deal 170000 miles tho
Only time will tell. How is it?
I always wanted to know why the back doors had lights on them but not the front doors.
Just bought one with 56,000 on the odometer.
These cars dominated the roads during my childhood, a staple of sorts. Neighbors had them, fellow members of my church drove them, you saw them at malls, restaurants, grocery stores. I never imagined a time when they would no longer exist but they do take me back to a time when life was a little sweeter and simpler.
I still see them in decent numbers here in Ohio, but they're nearly impossible to find for sale around here. Nobody wants to give up these big body old school gems! Gotta love the '00 LeSabre.
Still see a decent number of them kicking around in New Jersey. Typically in beige, normally driven by grannies at the supermarket. Always makes me smile to see them.
Finally got a chance to drag race my '05 LeSabre. On a cold night with POOR traction my best was 16.12 @ 86 mph. I'm confident it would do a 15.7 @ 87-88 mph pass under ideal conditions.
That looks like an impala.
2000 Buick Sedans (Park Ave, Century, and LeSabre) despite what they said about Oldsmobile are actually Buick rebadged Chevrolet Impala!
Don't forget about the Buick Regal. Of course back then people couldn't tell the difference between a Buick Regal and a Buick Century because of how much they looked alike. However you could tell the difference between a Buick Lesabre and a Buick Park Avenue Ultra.
I have a 2000 with over 200,000. Great car and easy to repair thanks to RUclips. I've replaced shocks, struts, alternator, all the emission control, fuel tank, a/c compressor, a/c manifold an now a new bumper( paid $125 for a new one), grill and headlights. And I had never I mean never repaired a car in my life.It had 76,000 miles on it I purchased it from my cousin's lot. The 3800 is really easy to work on. If I can't figure out how to repair it. I automatically go to RUclips. About to get it painted. I'm 65 and it gets me everywhere I need to go. Thank you Buick
The Buick 3800 engine is a work of simplified genius. Well kept, they're as smooth as butter, and even if they're beat on, they just keep on chugging. Another great thing about the 90s and early 2000 LeSabres is they were so popular that original parts aren't hard to come by.
Will Renault cars ever be sold in the U.S. again? They supposedly were, once, but by the time I was born, I think they stopped. Probably had something to do with them being sold through AMC...
Thank u
It wasn't the trans, it was the fact that these cars were FWD that was the real limitation. We have V70's of 2002 and 2007, solid vehicles as far as it goes.
T6 GM 4 speed auto is not the same as the 5 speed AW in the V70.
The transmission was actually terrible. It was basically a FWD Impala/Grand Prix/other GM shitbox trans. It wasn't even the beefed up version used in the Grand Prix GTP. They would last 80,000-90,000 miles, tops, if driven easily.
...brilliant looking car and really nice comfortable interior, handles well and still quite quick... but the transmission was terrible...
These cars were trash
Not really
naeejjj så kan du inte säga
@santileonsteinberg1441 There were not Lexus quality. But the engine was overall reliable. My 2001 has always had lots of little problems through years.
I wonder why their MPG test was so low. I will admit these are terrible city cars MPG wise(18) but if you don't stop constantly 30mpg is possible on highway and my combined is closer to 25.

@4:40 “everyone liked the big rear seat with more adult sized room than before…” what are they talking about? It was downsized from 1999 on the interior and that guy’s knees are into the back of the front seat.
I disagree with calling the interior huge. So much bigger on the outside and smaller on the inside than the 92-99 models. The backseat especially. It was terribly cramped. I had a 93 I was going to replace with a 2000. I remember having an argument with a salesman about size, so I pulled my car right up to the 2000 I was considering and showed the skeptical dealer (who said, no, they’re exactly the same size inside and out) and he couldn’t believe it either. The longer hood and longer trunk of the of the 2000 ate away the interior space. The 92-99 had a shorter hood and smaller trunk which gave tons of interior room. This was a bad move on GM’s part. They gave it large car proportions on the exterior and midsize car proportions on the interior. The roominess of the outgoing models was the whole reason I was considering a Lesabre again. Instead, I had to move up to a Park Avenue Ultra to get the same level of spaciousness as the outgoing Lesabre.
Interesting, almost sounds like you went from a LaSabre to a Century. Park Ave Ultra all the way!
@@Vekurus that’s exactly what it was like and I could have handled that if I actually were stepping down to a Century, but with the outside of the car being huge and the inside being so much smaller it was ridiculous. I’m also sure the nice salesman didn’t mind selling me up to flagship model so it worked out for us both lol.
pure garbage on wheels!
My grandmother that lives in Hartsfield, GA has a 2001 Lesabre and it's nice.
3800 the most reliable engine ever !
If they could produce these at $25k each people would by them.
This lamb has a friend that had one in his 30s. It was his grandmothers car and his grandfather couldn’t drive, so it was given to him. He got it 2 years old with 11,000 miles, and drove it another 16 years.
My 96 Buick Regal with 3800 series ll 0-60 only took 7.7 sec, not the smoothest but the torque is irreplaceable
My mom had one. Maybe a late 90’s model. I drove it from New Hampshire to New Jersey when she moved about 20 years ago and was blown away on how great it was to drive it!
