New Car Profile of the 2004 Buick LeSabre Mid-Size Sedan

Description: Full-Size Sedan
Base MSRP Range: $25,745-$31,715
Invoice Price Range: $23,557-$29,019

Buick's full-size sedan for 2004 divides into two trims, Custom and Limited, yet the latter serves as foundation for a Celebration series.

It emerged last year to mark the centennial anniversary of Buick and repeats in 2004 with all features of LeSabre Limited plus body-color lower fascia and rocker moldings, a monochrome badge up front and the oval grille displaying blacked-out bars inside a chrome ring.

Celebration comes in three new paints -- Platinum Metallic, Glacier Blue Metallic and Steelmist Metallic.

LeSabre surges from a 3.8-liter V6 which reaches 205 hp and ties to a smooth four-speed automatic transaxle.

Standard LeSabre seating consists of a 55/45 split bench in front, but a 45/45 design with console is optional.
