Bottomline The 2009 Buick LaCrosse is a nicely equipped American luxury sedan that comes in two very different flavors. The 2008 Hyundai Azera gives the Korean automaker a legitimate full-size sedan, with plenty of power, features, and room, but not much excitement. The 2008 Toyota Avalon is designed for a cushy, comfortable ride and impressive interior space above all else.
