  1. Here is a promotional ad for GM’s most available and exciting paint colors for 2020
  2. If Chrysler was allowed to have a couple crossovers in the same showroom as Jeep they would survive just fine. Not everyone wants the Jeep look. A three row that is legit competition to say the Traverse / Enclave would sell well enough. And a two row to compete with the Edge and such. And you still have the minivan which if they keep on the leading edge of that market would be enough for Chrysler. A 300 replacement wouldn't sell a ton but to be honest there is still possibly a market for that. probably Ram
  3. These wheels make the wagon look more ‘estate’ like whereby the stock wheels try to look ‘crossover’. Both end up looking good and these look better than I thought they would on the tourx.
  4. Whoa. I just realized. I picked those up in LaCrosse WI and they were originally off a Buick LaCrosse ?? And then what. Just glad I didn’t lacrosse myself http://languagehat.com/no-lacrosse-for-canada/
  5. Yeah where am I going to store that third set of tires ?
  6. 18”. Someone upgraded their lacrosse to the GM factory 20’s and so these 18’s became available.
  7. Secured wheels for my snows from another donor Buick
  8. wow i have an opel and a chrysler already, this would be like getting invited to a European wedding party WOOT
  9. I've had plenty of manuals, Hard reality is with bad traffic, and other factors, it really is better and even safer to be in an automatic. Autos are better at FE now, faster to shift, etc. I still would endorse some models out there have Manuals available. Primarily for performance vehicles and fun to drive vehicles. But really nothing like a base Kia Forte should have one. Now, say, if Chevy had a 2.0 Malibu manual in a true RS sports sedan package...maybe.
  10. was it due to their 2.4l 'performance engine'? maybe that had high rate of repairs or something.
  11. yes, quality, the Pontiac Vibe won't require buying a 10 year extended warranty on the vehicle like an expensive off lease German car would
  12. Doesn't this belong in the 'crossover coupe' thread???? Just get an old Vibe!
  13. Maybe the next BMW is the GRAN DAMME (in blue as well) I mean, it looks like they are trending that way anyways
  14. this 'tourx' idea.....i wonder if it wouldn't be better on a full size RWD/AWD chassis, and larger size like the Avenir concept. They could have the Avenir sedan and a full size TourX ; i know it would still be a low volume product but the vison of a grand touring wagon i think would be even better if the car were larger, 2-4 inches wider, a few inches taller (seat H point 2 inches taller), and 6-8 inches more on the wheelbase. Like CT6 sized....
  15. Absolute truth. Two things, if GM hadn’t sold Opel (by doing so they created a situation where they are only selling enough on purpose to meet the contract) they might actually want to sell this vehicle. If they did want to sell more maybe they could also sell the decladded versions. The second thing is GM overprices things and messes up the option packaging. Buick’s should have items like heated seats seats and rear armrests standard. Admittedly at the end of the day nowadays anything that is not a crossover is destined to be a niche offering.
  16. 100% spot on. The white frost tourx also should have grey cladding. Not black.
  17. YES!! that too!
  18. there's even some Pontiac EXCITEMENT! in some of these lines! I am seeing Grand Am resurrection here! This also looks good to someone who might be driving a Civic Hatchback SPORT + TOURING! Did BMW steal some GM designers?
  19. and it will cut off your ear, too! the side greenhouse glass, c pillar window shape / kink reminds me some of my Malibu.....
  20. Quite a bit! I thought the word egress might connect with you. Lol what is the occupant load. ? I don’t mind the high console actually but the getting in and out of the car requires gymnastics to do gracefully as I get older Love this car! But i should have gotten a crossover ?
