Paolino

That's actually not bad. I like shades of green on a car, whether it be a dark bold forest green or a light/faded silvery green. I just don't like, "In your face Kermit green"

Well, I would hope to see the 6-speed auto in there because it's debuting next year, so they better get them in ALL Buicks and the DTS, and then have one in say the Impala/Monte Carlo, Aura (which we know it'll have), Grand Prix, Malibu and G6 (which will make them more competitive)

Whoah..... I read this topic as "cars that give good head"

I am SO touched you remembered to comment on the illumination!! LOL Thanks for the commentary on the LaCrosse... maybe you'll get a CXS one weekend and let us know if you liked it any better. :)

That is such an awesome episode! :lol: And Buickguy, I don't know if they're getting them for 2007, but I imagine there'd be some sort of upgrade package or ventiport coming standard when they refresh the vehicle and add the "Super" packaging for 2008.

I miss the Eldorado! I wish that was coming out soon.

I agree and also have the top one, I don't really know what the complaints are, because if you just remember the buttons, you don't have to look. I remember them from using them a couple of times and it's all second nature. Push in the side to turn on the Cruise control. Tap the little button right to advance in 1mph increments, or push the left side to slow down 1mph increments. Shutting the cruise means just sliding the button to the left til it clicks, or tapping your brakes. Up for right turns, down for left. Windshield washers are easy because the tab sticks out--just push it in. Wipers, how much simpler can you get... first click is the slidable intermittent wipers, next click low, next click high. What's the huge confusion? I might enjoy having another stalk to separate wipers from cruise control, but how many stalks are we going to have in a car? Not to mention I have a stalk for the tilt steering, and another one for my gear selector. It's all a matter of just getting used to the device. Once you're used to it, there's really no hassle at all.

From many articles I've read, GM has done marvels with virtually eliminating torque steer even under heavy power... I recall reading the Impala SS with 303hp, showed little torque steer.

Toyota said so.

Wow... that is going to be so hot! I wonder what other kinds of little treats the GXP will get :) Not that this isn't the best treat of all!

Okay, whose family tried to convert them to heterosexuality? C'mon, don't be shy... raise your hands... *raises hand* Yeah. Christmas just isn't the same anymore :rolleyes: As for Christmas being superficial... it's only to those who make it so. A lot of us celebrate it for the actual reason we have a holiday, unlike a school district on the North Shore of Long Island that shall remain nameless that shuts 3 days earlier than other schools because so many of the wealthy families there make it their opportune time to travel.

Oh dear God. Although still not as bad as the bright pink Navigator I saw last year.

I wouldn't say a miserable life, but man, things like this piss me off. Politics in the work place piss me off. Students who blatently lie to me piss me off. And worst yet, men who lie to me are gone immediately.

That is the FIRST Jaguar I've ever liked!! :)

What is the Sharkskin color like? Is it simply a shade of gray? I really want to see the Slatestone Metallic color of the LaCrosse because I'm hoping it has a hint of blue mixed in with the gray--if it does, that'd be the color I'd get :)

Okay, we knew this. I just wish I could see it in person for once! What model did you see? CXL or CXS? Colors?

How about "D'OH"?

Okay, I was just watching a Toyota commercial advertising their sedans when they announced their "270hp Avalon". Are they allowed to "round up"? I mean, at first their ratings went from 280 to 268 when the new system came out, and their commercials kept preaching 280 rather than changing the voiceover for the correct numbers. But now, blatently announcing "270" when it's still a couple of hp off--isn't that illegal? I'm not going to complain over 2hp--no one would notice the difference, but it's more the principal of the matter. How can you try to be the world's biggest auto maker, and lie? Sorry, I know that sounds like a stupid question because this world is FULL of lies, but dishonesty in any fashion really really pisses me off. :angry:

Let's see... including family's cars (and I don't know the dates of some of the early ones), the GM cars are: 1960's Pontiac Bonneville 1982 Chevrolet Malibu Classic 1987 Buick Park Avenue 1992 Buick Century Special 1992 Buick LeSabre Limited 1994 Buick Century Custom 200? Buick LaCrosse CXL :P

I just wish that more manufacturers would make a lot more features optional, but separate. Like features a la carte. For example, I wouldn't want a sunroof, but I might want something else. Just the ability to pick and choose exactly what you want would be great.

Okay, the Boston Acoustics is already available on other 300 Models, so I don't really consider it an upgrade. As for the other stuff, trivial.

They couldn't do anything to maybe boost the interior looks other than the little tricolor logo on the seats? For a $36,000.00 car, muchless a special edition, I would expect a little nicer interior.

Okay, I remember one model year in the last generation Buick Century, around 2002 or 2003 or so, reading that the grille received a minor change... that and the Regal. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? And if so, does anyone know what the changes were because I never could tell, and I saw a Century today and it made me think of this. It bugged me for a while back then and today it just rebugged me so any help would be great!! :)

Oh wow! That's so funny--I saw a 60's T-Bird about a year ago and saw it doing that when he signaled... figured he made that himself ;) I don't know any cars today that do that though?

What are "sequential taillights"?
