Toyota to Increase Overseas Production by 40%
Yes, but their quality will have to suffer with such an enormous increase in production. They may sell millions the first year or two, but if their quality tanks, don't think people won't notice.

2008 LaCrosse Makeover?
I hope that's the case. It'd definitely be nice however to see a refresh. I'm very surprised they didn't change the grille/nose this year as they changed several things on the interior like the faux wood, steering wheel, gauge cluster, cloth seats, etc.

2008 LaCrosse Makeover?
My pessimism thinks it'll be delayed. We seem to have to wait for every Buick product.

2008 LaCrosse Makeover?
Uffa.. Not EVERYONE on this planet wants a RWD vehicle -- I'd gather most don't care.

2008 LaCrosse Makeover?
As I said in another thread, it'd be nice if the 3.6L put out at least as much power as it does in the cheaper G6 and the Aura.

2008 LaCrosse Makeover?
See, I keep thinking it's coming out in 2009 for 2010. If that's the case, then one more year isn't that bad. If it's 2 more years, I'd really hope they'd throw a new grille on it.

2008 LaCrosse Makeover?
Yup yup.It really could have used a facelift this year. Then again, it needs it because nothing will have the ovoid grille in 2008 with the goodbye of the Rendezvous, Rainier and Terraza. Not to mention, it just needs an update badly. The design is late 90's/early 2000's.

2008 LaCrosse Makeover?
Well, it seems several rumors have been floating around regarding that, including shoving the 5.3L V8 under the hood for a "Super" trim. There was a thread hosting the "new face" of the LaCrosse under the Buick section (I believe it was pinned). However, I believe there was talk recently that the plans were going to be ditched. So, I can't offer any solid info.

New Performance Benchmark Test
What was very weird for me was yesterday I was looking at a Cobalt SS in the parking lot and I thought to myself, "I think part of me would love to have one. I'd love to have a cool little well-handling, powerful beast." Then the Buick part of me came out and thought, "Nah, I want a Lucerne."

Tiger to help roll out Enclave
The only thing we have to look forward to is the Enclave, which, although is new and exciting for Buick, is far away, and I can't help that the release of the Outlook and Acadia has stolen some of its thunder. I'd really like to see more action with Buick--quicker too. The Terraza and Rainer have to go, now. Rendezvous is leaving and being replaced with the Enclave (and the Rainier is kinda being replaced by it as well). I feel we need something else, and something exciting for Buick. And fast. Because none of the sedans they have are at all exciting. Don't get me wrong, I love the Lucerne... but how much of the world is as big of a Buick as myself?

The Smoking Crowd - at work or school
The majority of people who begin smoking in Junior High School, High School, and dare I say it, the latter years of elementary, do it because it's "cool"--not because someone held a gun to their heads, nor because they have an insatiable craving for nicotine.

flint to produce the 3.6L
I'd like the damn LaCrosse CXS 3.6L to get the same power as it's cheaper Aura XR 3.6L and G6 3.6L. I mean, c'mon... 240hp vs. 252hp. And 225lb/ft vs. 251lb/ft.I mean, that's a nice little boost if you ask me, 12hp and 26lb/ft torque. It'd help the LaCrosse feel a tiny bit more agile in its "sporty" trim.
