The Terraza continues into 2007 with two trim levels (CX and CXL) and a number of significant changes.
Like most other 2007 GM vehicles, the Terraza gets a new 5-year, 100,000 mile powertrain warranty with roadside assistance and courtesy transportation.
Leading the list of new hardware features is the new standard engine for all trim levels, a 3.9 liter V-6 (photo) with variable valve timing (VVT) that generates roughly 240hp and 240 ft/lbs of torque, making it more powerful than the Terraza's domestic rivals and competitive with the latest engines from Japanese and Korean minivans. A FlexFuel variant of the engine designed to run on E85 ethanol will also be available in late 2007.
Redesigned 8-spoke 17-inch wheels are now offered, as are three new exterior colors: polar blue metallic, gold mist metallic and light quartz metallic. The OnStar navigation and communication system -- with vehicle diagnostics and a one-year "directions and connections" plan -- is now standard on both CX and CXL trim levels.
Discontinued:
The Terazza all-wheel drive (AWD) and independent rear suspension options have been discontinued for the 2007 model year.

Beyond 2007
GM is planning to discontinue the Buick Terraza sometime in 2009/2010, with the next-generation Chevy Uplander and a yet-unnamed GMC minivan slated to carry the GM minivan torch thereafter.
