Thanks `Devin for posting & sharing this update to know what's happening out there in Buick's automotive market...

This is one of my biggest beefs with auto makers, bringing back nameplates and ruining them, making them fwd, four door, slow, when in there day they where rwd, 2 door, they had style and power to boot!

I don't think the new car is ugly, but it isn't exactly exciting to look at either. I hardly would expect a Buick to be a 2 door anymore, but I'm satisfied if they really make it a powerhouse

GM needs more rides like above Thanks 2 the Aussie's (I'd drive this 4 door Sedan), but still all of the rides on this page are way 2 many $'s for me or my auto budget 4-Sure...

They are calling it the Chevrolet Super Sport. And its hardly what GM needs IMO. This Buick idea is better then rebadging a G8
