Okay, I REALLY like this. I'm dying to see and know more about it. However, I'm kinda bummed we have to wait until late `07 for this... was hoping to see it next summer.

It's like 15 minutes into the show... you just have to sit and be patient. Wish you could control fastforwarding or rewinding.

I'm confused now. Cause yeah, the rims look big. Yeah, the car looks more muscular. But that sure as hell isn't a Velite-inspired grille on the car. Still looks like an improvement though.

Oh My God I'm such an ass! LOL :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'd really love to see some pics and get some specs, but I imagine we won't see anything for a while. Maybe we'll see something at an auto show?

Hmmmm... if it's a Cobalt-inspired Ferrari, does the interior suffer from that hard-plastic? :rolleyes:

Did you happen to notice if the center stack got any sort of change?

Empowah, I am so not a fan of Jaguar's looks. That's one of the problems I have with the headlight treatment of the LaCrosse. However, I can imagine that if this is real, it's going to look better than that.

Fly--you hit the nail on the head. I could actually imagine hearing LR (not a damn one I would ever buy), use that.

Thank you God! So... we can expect a refreshed exterior with a better looking nose, 6A and an available hi-po V8 engine for 2007. Now that should drum up some interest.

I really like Limited -- Super. No. Reserve? No. Diamond series? Maybe. Platinum? Yes. Gimme different trim levels based on metals and jewels.. would love it. Platinum, diamond, gold, etc. That sounds kinda cool to me. So, anyway, I noticed the grille isn't chrome, but rather body-colored. If GM is indeed producing this high po LaCrosse with a sporty edge, a body-colored grille seems right up their alley--as they did with the Regal.

I doubt that since Buick went the extra lengths to phase out the "Ultra" name when it got rid of the PA Ultra and then the Rendezvous Ultra was just renamed the CXL Plus.

Did the exterior look refreshed in any way? I mean, was the grille the same or did it take on more like the Lucerne's Velite-inspired grille?

Don't get me wrong... I'm more a Lucerne CXS type than a LaCrosse CX man. I prefer a sporty-luxury sedan. I would go a little sportier than the Lucerne CXS, but that doesn't exist for Buick. As for my Century, well, even that is too bland for me!

I don't know why--why at all, I like the Bel-Air dash. It's SO against what I like about dashes, yet I like it. And I hate horizontal speedometers--and retro-looking big-ass numbers... and I love it in this dash. Weird.

I'm not saying anything until I see some better pictures.

See, I didn't like that design either... then again, I'm one of those boring people who likes a nice conservative design. Hence me being 28 and loving Buick.

Ditto.

Getting one Fly?

Well, let's put it this way.. just be happy they're not getting as much attention as Buick is. I mean, I got all excited about the 3Billion invested, and we have the Lucerne, a great car... then... umm... ???? :huh:

Wow.. when I was working, minimum was $4.85/hour. As a matter of fact, it took a jump while I was at my job, and people who started working after me were making more than I was! I quickly argued that.

BV, he's playing... it's a model of a Fiero GT... current bid at $23.50 LOL EDIT: NEvermind, was beaten to the punch!

Not enough buttons IMO

Hey, BV, cheer up... the Solstice is GORGEOUS on the road--I saw my first one last night--it looked like a much-more expensive car on the road than it does in pictures--and to be honest, with that design, I was like, "Wow... Go Pontiac Go!" ^_^

OCN, I agree with you and I've said it in the past. However, since the cars attached made the names great, people associate the name with the car. Since people now associated "Century" and "Regal" with old, bland styling, Buick wants to get away from that association. However, I feel it is foolish to have dropped the LeSabre name since the car was doing so incredible and it was a well-known name.
