Pick your Buick Enclave trim and budget before you shop in Houston

Pick the trim that matches what you will use every week. The gap between the Preferred and the Avenir is $13,600 at the starting price, so that choice sets the whole budget.

Add Texas tax and fees to your Buick Enclave price
Your out-the-door price is the Enclave’s MSRP for your trim plus Texas motor vehicle sales tax and title and registration fees. The MSRP is the starting point, not the final number.
The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts sets the motor vehicle sales tax at 6.25 percent of the sales price, minus any trade-in allowance. A trade-in lowers the amount that gets taxed, so an accurate trade-in value helps your total.
For registration, the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles lists a $50.75 base fee for a passenger vehicle or truck of 6,000 pounds or less, and the TxDMV fee chart effective 2026 adds a local fee in Harris County of $11.50. The title fee for Harris County is $33 under the TxDMV Motor Vehicle Title Manual (TxDMV 2026). Add these to the MSRP and you have a realistic out-the-door number before you sign anything.

A September 2026 Google review from Haylee Y. described the visit: “⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an AMAZING experience from start to finish! We were in and out of the dealership in less than three hours, and the entire process was simple, straightforward, and completely stress-free. We worked primarily with Jay, and he was fantastic! He made the entire process feel easy and streamlined. He was extremely polite, communicated openly with us throughout the whole experience, and was completely upfront and honest about everything involving the vehicle. We never felt pressured or like we were getting the typical “dealership runaround.“ For financing, we primarily worked with Cesar, who was equally amazing. He truly fought to make sure we received the best rate possible and walked us through everything clearly and honestly. We really appreciated how transparent he was and how much effort he put into getting us the best financing available. From the vehicle itself to financing and communication, this was easily one of the best dealership experiences we’ve had. Jay and Cesar made buying a car actually enjoyable! We would absolutely recommend them and this dealership to anyone looking for a straightforward, honest, and stress-free car-buying experience.”
