CarGurus Analysis: 2017 Buick Enclave

Summary
With 99 currently listed for sale near Chicago, IL and an average price of $9,429, 20.2% of 2017 Buick Enclaves for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2017 Buick Enclave 5 / 5 stars.
57.6% of 2017 Enclave models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2017 Buick Enclave stands out as a roomy, upscale family SUV with a distinctly car-like feel. It was built on a unibody construction for more refined driving dynamics, and it offered seating for up to seven with an optional second-row bench seat. That combination made it a practical alternative to a minivan, especially since adults could fit in the third row. It also had a focus on safety, including an industry-first front center airbag added in 2013.
For buyers, the 2017 Enclave’s appeal comes from its comfortable cabin, stylish design, and generous amenities. The model was part of a generation that used a V6 engine and a six-speed automatic transmission, and it came standard with front-wheel drive with all-wheel drive available. At the same time, shoppers should be aware that this generation had some transmission complaints, and the 2008 model was specifically noted for hesitant downshifts. Even so, the 2017 Enclave remains attractive for drivers who want three rows of seating without giving up a more polished, less truck-like driving experience.

Spacious inside without being oversized and cumbersome to drive. This has all the functionality of a family vehicle without screaming “I’M A MOM, LOOK AT MY MOM CAR!” (IYKYK) It’s been two weeks since my purchase and I’m STILL getting compliments! I can drive in style without compromising my family’s safety and that’s a win-win for me!

Is the 2017 Buick Enclave a good car?
Yes — the 2017 Buick Enclave earns a 5/5 user rating, which points to strong owner satisfaction. Owners consistently praise its comfortable and spacious ride, smooth handling, and quiet performance. That makes it a strong fit if you want a roomy, upscale family SUV with a more polished, car-like feel. With 30.6% of listings marked as good or great deals, you also have some room to shop selectively.
Is the 2017 Buick Enclave reliable?
Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The owner feedback also emphasizes that it feels comfortable, smooth, and quiet, which are traits buyers often associate with dependable everyday use. That said, you should still approach any used example with normal long-term ownership caution and verify how well the vehicle has been maintained.
What should I look for when buying a used 2017 Buick Enclave?
At 63.5% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should start with a vehicle history report so you can screen for accidents, title issues, and inconsistent ownership records. After that, prioritize a thorough inspection of body condition, panel alignment, and signs of repair quality. Because this model year is often bought for family use, you should also pay close attention to cabin wear, seat condition, and how well the vehicle has been maintained overall.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2017 Buick Enclave?
This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find value.
- Deal availability: 30.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 956 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 10.34% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 63.5% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $11,976, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2017 Buick Enclave's resale value?
The current average of $12,111 sits slightly below last year's $13,507.
That decline suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can make future resale a little more sensitive to mileage, condition, and maintenance history. If you buy well and keep the vehicle in strong shape, you may be better positioned to preserve value than a seller who enters the market with a rougher example. The current pricing also means your purchase price matters more, since buying near the low end can help cushion later depreciation.
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 2017 Buick Enclave or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2017 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2017 if:
- 30.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 63.5% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 10.34% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2018 if:
- At $16,166, the 2018 costs more than the current year's $12,111 average.
- It brings a fully redesigned look with more space and more power.
The bottom line: If you want the better value today, the 2017 is the stronger starting point because it combines lower pricing with solid owner satisfaction. If you’re willing to spend more for the redesigned next year and its added space and power, the 2018 is the better upgrade path. For price-sensitive buyers, the 2017 is the more practical choice.
