What to know about donating a Buick in Miami, Florida
Buick at auction — the value picture
Buick Enclave and LaCrosse hold value reasonably; older Lucerne and Century sedans sell at the lower end of retail auction. Buick's General Motors lineage means parts availability is excellent — even non-runners find a parts-buyer market. Buyers in this segment are typically domestic auto dealers, family-vehicle resellers. GM electronics issues (BCM, throttle body) are common; older Buicks sometimes route to parts auctions.
