CarGurus Analysis: 2016 Buick LaCrosse

Summary
With 351 currently listed for sale and an average price of $12,129, 29.9% of 2016 Buick LaCrosse listings on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2016 Buick LaCrosse 5 / 5 stars.
55.8% of 2016 Buick LaCrosse listings on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2016 Buick LaCrosse stands out as a comfortable, quietly upscale sedan that leans more toward relaxed cruising than sporty driving. Buick gave this generation a curvaceous shape, a clean exterior, and a cabin that was meant to feel more modern than the brand’s older sedans. It also brought useful everyday space, including a larger trunk and a bigger back seat, while the waterfall-style center console gave the interior a distinctive layout. At the same time, the cabin was not perfect, since the source notes a lot of flimsy plastic parts.
For 2016, the LaCrosse added a power driver’s seat, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and updated IntelliLink infotainment. It also offered a Sport Touring package with a spoiler and 18-inch wheels. Those updates helped make the car feel more current, and the available technology was a real selling point for buyers who wanted a traditional sedan with modern connectivity. The model’s appeal was also strengthened by its quiet ride and comfortable character, which owners frequently praise.
There are tradeoffs, though. The source describes this generation’s prices as relatively high for a Buick sedan that had gone out of style and technological vogue years ago, and it also notes that the car’s fuel economy could be better. Even so, the 2016 LaCrosse remains distinctive for buyers who value comfort, a plush feel, and a well-equipped interior over sharp handling or a sporty personality.

Rides beautifully. The leather seats are very comfortable and road noise is virtually eliminated. The built in Apple Carplay connected to my phone in 30 seconds and the operation is flawless. The 3.6 liter V6 offers plenty of power for a larger sedan. I drove a 2015 Lexus RX 350 for six months and in comparing the two, the Lacrosse has more power, better leather seats, a quiter ride and has a more solid feel.

The reliability rating for the Buick LaCrosse are at the top of similar cars. It’s interior is luxurious and comfortable for both front and back seat riders. It’s large but sleek and the ride smooth and quiet. The only minor deficit is that the trunk is smaller than you’d imagine, however the back seats will fold down to fit more cargo

The ride was great. We bought it because of the safety features--especially the warning if there is a vehicle approaching in your blind spot. Also, the rear view camera is great to let you know if someone comes flying up in back of you while you are preparing to back out of a parking space.

Not only is the Lacrosse an extremely comfortable ride, it has the technology you want in a car. Plus the fuel economy is better than the Honda Accord Coupe I owned prior to this one. I’ve loved my Lacrosse enough that my family have bought ones for themselves.

Is the 2016 Buick LaCrosse reliable?
Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
Owners describe it as reliable, and they also point to dependable everyday comfort and a trouble-free ownership experience. The feedback emphasizes long-term confidence in the car’s smooth, quiet character, which matters if you want a used sedan you can count on. For used buyers, that kind of owner sentiment suggests lower ownership anxiety, though you should still verify condition carefully before committing.

At 55.2% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should run a vehicle history report on every candidate and pay close attention to any prior collision records. A pre-purchase inspection should focus on bodywork quality, panel alignment, and signs of uneven wear or repair. Because this model is valued for comfort and refinement, you should also make sure the cabin, electronics, and ride quality still feel consistent with that premium mission.

What is the 2016 Buick LaCrosse's resale value?
The current average of $12,174 sits slightly below last year's $12,303.
That small decline suggests the market has eased a bit, which can help you buy more confidently now but may also limit short-term appreciation if you plan to resell soon. For a future seller, the key takeaway is that this model year is holding value reasonably well rather than dropping sharply. Its strong owner satisfaction should help support demand, especially among shoppers who prioritize comfort and a quiet ride.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2016 Buick LaCrosse or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2016 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2016 if:
- 30.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 55.2% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 1.05% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2017 if:
- At $15,013, the 2017 costs more than the current year's $12,174 average.
- The redesign gives the car a more premium, modern image.
The bottom line: If you want the better value today, the 2016 is the stronger starting point because it combines a lower average price with strong owner satisfaction. If you are willing to spend more for a newer-feeling design and a more premium presentation, the 2017 is the better upgrade path. For price-sensitive buyers, the 2016 is the practical choice; for shoppers prioritizing a more modern look and feel, the 2017 is worth the extra money.
