From a scale 1-10. My vehicle is an 7.
My car is in good condition. It runs great with low mileage. Just a couple scratches on the seat and left window wont lower down. Other than that vehicle is in good condition. The best feature is the luxury of the car. It's also very good on gas so, less you have to refill.

The pleasure of driving our cascada.
The convertible cascada is a great ride in the summer time with the top down. On those hot summer days it feels fantastic with the wind blowing over you. It is a peppy car and very stylish with it is sleek look. Handles well in winter snow with it is front wheel drive.

This car has the luxury of being a convertible but it is also a midsize car!
My Buick cascada convertible is the perfect mid sized convertible. It is American made. It handles very well. The convertible top is so easy to use. It comes up and down with only one button control. I really like the fact that although it is a convertible, it is a midsize car. It has plenty of sitting and leg room in the backseat. It has a nice size trunk area that can hold a lot of stuff! The car handles well on the road. The main control panel on the dashboard is easy to use and understand.

Comfortable and economical car and stylish.
The heated seats failed just before 4 years from purchase date and became I had less than 36,000 miles on the car it was fixed for free. The infotainment system required factory resetting in the second year, also free. I love the convenience of putting the top down while in slow traffic without having to stop the car. On the highway I get 36 mpg without the a/c on in the summer. Around town I get 26 mpg.

Convertible sports car very rarely seen on the road
My car is a two door black convertible. It rides very smooth and is comfortable. No problems to report

Did that dog just open the top
Cup holders too small can't hold two of same size. So passenger either has no drink or must hold. Position of control for top too accessible for passengers like children and dogs so when traveling they can open or close. My model year was not available with remote start

The issues with my car!
My back window lifted up on the bottom left side corner. I called General Motors. My car's, warranty of course ran out like 6 weeks before hand. They would only pay half of the cost of a new roof. I Had to pay the other half ($1,200.00) to get a new top put on. Now with the new roof on my car is getting water (1 1/2 inches!) On the floor behind the drivers seat! Took it to a dealer. They said they pressure hosed the car and couldn't find a problem. I went to get in my car, and whole floor be him the drivers seat was soaked! I walked back to the garage and had the guy go out with me. I showed him the water on the floor, he was surprised. Needless to say, my car is still there. I am so disappointed in G.M. My car is only 4 years old! I bought it brand new. Now I'm worried about mold! Shame on you, General Motors!!!!!

Pretty car with lots of problems.
Pretty convertible, but has lots of problems. Rear window separation from top was a recall. Rear quarter panel drains plug causing water inside the car. Had to replace rear tail lights due to electrical problems. This was also a recall. Several other electric problems, car ride rough due to the low profile tires.

Comfortable, and very spacious. Makes sure you have a comfy ride.
I don't have any issues I would highly recommend this car it runs smooth and has no issues. It has enough seats for you and your whole family, and it has a good size trunk for luggage. It is not a compacted vehicle either, it has very much space and that means a comfy ride. The seats and interior are also very comfy.

This car is great for the price.
The performance is really good. It has low mileage and is great for getting around anywhere. I bought this car with high expectations and my expectations were correct. This car has been amazing meaning it has had no problems or anything extra I have needed to pay for. I am really hoping I will be able to keep this car for a long time and I think I will be able to.

When top is down compliments are frequent
Visibility is a bit limited. Not as solid feeling as I am used to but it was affordable. When the top is down it is a whole lot of fun. I get compliments on it frequently. Gas tank is small. Voice command system has never worked properly. Overall, I enjoy driving my car.

Both of my roof drains were clogged & thus the carpets are soaked The dealer wants to replace them at $1300 GM is very attentive, however, they are trying to tell me the drains should be cleaned as "regular maintenance" with every oil change!! This would add about $500 to an oil change!! This is my 4th convertible & have never even heard of such a thing On other Buick Forums, this seems to be a common issue

Cascada is a classic one of a kind vehicle. Why be ordinary be unique.
It is futuristic and sleek looking. It handles with great precision and accelerates quickly. The front seat is very comfortable with another room to stretch out. One you put the convertible top down you experience a great sense of freedom. It is unique and there are very few on the road.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Renee H.

It handles nicely and has a smooth drive. It is a convertible and is sharp looking. I love the design and there aren't many manufactured. It accelerates quickly and has all the bells and whistles on could ask for.

likeFilled Erin S.

First, and foremost, the convertible top drops down quickly and effortlessly. In addition, the car provides a quiet ride, which many convertibles do not! The car not only has leather seats, but those seats offer the option of being heated. Finally, the backseat is spacious enough to fit two full-sizes adults.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Renee H.

The cons are that although there is a back sit it really is not comfortable for anyone to ride back there. There's is not a lot of storage space in the trunk and it is terrible in the snow and ice. It really should only be driven for 3 seasons.

dislikeFilled Erin S.

The cars pick-up is a bit on the slow side. While this is not an issue when dealing with day-to-day city driving, it is a bit of a nuisance on the highway. Also, the front dash, while esthetically pleasing, is a bit tricky to navigate at first.
