I like the ambient lighting in the interior. I also like how soft the interior looks, something GM has gotten away from and has really cost them. Im glad to see them finally straying away from the hard grey plastic approach of the late 90s early 00s. The car is just too heavy to appeal to me. Over 4000lb curb weight? What is this the 70s? Make that car 500lb lighter and I think it would be a much better car to drive.

 

They ARE going to sell the LaCrosse, JUST because it's a Buick. This is the replacement for the LeSabre. It doesn't matter what it looks like, OLD people (like JJ LOL) will buy it just because it's a Buick. I know for a fact, I'm one of the older members here (55), and you see what I drive. The LaCrosse is NOT for me. Give us back the Monte Carlo, even if it's a Holden. We were forced into buying big SUV's, because "that's what we wanted", the same way we are forced into buying 4 door cars, because "that's what we want". BS! SOME of us still prefer BIG 2 door cars with some power.

 

i hear ya on that one, wayne! 2 doors are better than 4!

im not really diggin the buick, which is sad 'caus my screenname refers to a buick, lol. i would drive that lacross if i inherrited one from my grandparents, lol, and i do agree i like that GM seems to be getting back to big, plush seats & warm, welcomeing interior colors & accents, unlike my sea of gray & black plastic monte, with 3 whole strips of plastic woodgrain, lol. but i would still like to see a more affordable buick, that leans towards preformance instead of luxury.... i mean, why would older folks & any younger buyers go for a buick if they could have a caddy for a little more $? buick needs to stop focusing on trying to be a cadilac and start getting back to well built, smooth riding, comfertable crusers for people who wanna have a lil more luxury than a chevy but cannot afford that of a caddy.... right now they are like a 2nd caddy, & IMO more people are gonna swing towards caddy....

 

I hear ya about the 2 doors Wayne. Hopefully Camaro sales will help them figure it out.

I Like the car, but I an't believe fake plastic woodgrain is still being used in cars. It works in a "rendering", but cheapens it in reality. But I'd still look to drive that car. I always have a Buick. I've had many. I've only had 1 Chevy.

 

But for $40k I could have a Camaro 2SS/RS + CAI + Exhaust

Also, Buick without 3.8 is a fail :P

 

It looks alot better than the old one! It has kind of a "Lexus Look" ??
Maybe Buick will be able to steal some business. I hope!

The USA has good products - but there's still that stigma of poor quality.
IT's NOT TRUE!
