You could find a decent one with average miles for $14-18K. A lot are coming off lease now as I type this.

The same as its LS4 powered siblings. We just don't stand out as much.

Default Hi I just found you guys
I was browsing looking for articles on the 08 Buick Lacrosse Super.
I never realized how few were made. I purchased a new 08 leftover in 09.
My wife loves it and is so much fun to drive. I get to put gas in it and wash and service it.
If anyone is interested I can post pics and list all the toys that it came with

Hi Jason,
The black looks really nice, I know I had a choice of 2, a black and a red jewel. I took the red jewel 2008, I bought new in 2009. The red one had everything in it, the black one didn't have the sunroof!
I have 18000 miles on it and it runs like a swiss watch. I'm running Amsoil synthetic in engine and transmission.
