| Price of the Buick Verano: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2013 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 250hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
I bought the Verano to replace a 2003 Volvo S60. I'd have liked to get another Volvo S60, but the prices were too high. I wanted another compact-sized car because of the small parking garage I live in. I also wanted something with a fair degree of luxury, some nice entertainment and safety tech, and comfortable seats. The Verano met these criteria, but when I first looked it had only the 2.4L engine which I didn't consider adequate for passing, getting on the freeway, and such. Fortunately, the 2.0L Turbo "Premium" trim was released shortly after I started looking. It more than met my acceleration needs. And in January my "GM Card" credit card ran a promotion which gave me $3000 in rebates, so I was sold. |
