I really like the plood in the Verano. I think it looks quite handsome. I would be fine if it only came on the cashmere/cocoa trim.

You know me... INTERIORS INTERIORS INTERIORS with closeups of the gauge clusters and center stack.

I really like it... everything except the chrome eyebrows on the rear. But seriously, love the interior, plood IMO looks good, happy with offered features.. just hope lower trims of the car don't look too cheap.

This is good news to my friend who has a 2004 Impala and doesn't have an OnStar mirror but totally wants it.

That is one of the first things I thought when I looked at the pictures of the car. Granted it's in mint condition, but one problem and where are you going to get an instrument cluster from? It's all digital! Where are you going to find one of those lying around!

My local Buick dealer has a 91 Reatta with 2,787 miles on it. They wanted $32,999... after a year of not selling, they're asking $29,999. I still think they're about $20,000 too high

I see Rivieras on the road all the time and they still look good today. I was very upset when I saw the Mark VIII (my fav car at the time), the Continental and the LS all go. To me, they were awesome cars that needed updates/replacements (albeit, I didn't care much for the last gen Continental).

That has been there for quite some time now...

I'm at 201,000 miles and it starts up and runs continually.

I voted you up one to counteract the negativity from your post because I totally agree. The 300 should have gotten an update a couple of years ago instead of remaining stale for about six years. This honestly looks like a heavy refresh. I haven't seen the interior (which bugs me when articles report on such drastic changes yet fail to post a single pic of them). A heavily refreshed interior and IMO a mildly modified exterior does not make a new car that's supposed to last for another, what, 5-6 years?

I'm a clean/neat freak as well, but white to me just says impossible to keep white for the life of the car. Too many things can discolor it. Hell, my parents are neat-freaks and the cashmere leather in their Lucerne is darknening with age, and I'm not sure what they're doing that's making that happen.

One of my big problems with Chryslers and Fords interiors were that everything seemed so boxy/squarish. This update is unbelievable--and thank GOD. The previous lines/shapes of the interior reminded me of my old `87 Sundance. Although the white on black looks nice it just makes me wonder how it'll look if you don't stay absolutely on top of it at all times, and after a few years, will it look cream-colored due to wear.

Congrats! Can you snap a couple of pics of the interior?

Just looked and according to the Chevy website, it's not available on the LS, but available on the Eco.

I believe it. Was a bit disappointed with the power of the Lucerne's base 6-speaker stereo compared to the 6-speaker setup in the last gen Sonata. Can we avoid all the Sonata = everything amazing comments just because I compared the two?

Interesting because the base stereo on the Regal is supposed to be a 7-speaker system where one is a subwoofer.

Absolutely agree with the other posts about the front page being too cluttered and large. Less content on the front page... less scrolling as well. If people want to explore specific content, let them go into the website, but keep major stories and maybe a top feature summary/links on the front page. Some have mentioned more color on the front page. I agree, but don't feel I'd add too much as you don't want it to be overly distracting. EDIT: What about having titles of major articles and maybe a 1-2 sentence summary... but a flash page where if you hover over the link, a blurb pops up with the first paragraph of the article? Too much to do?

I'm curious to see how they function... it's almost as though the passenger-side wiper looks like it'll extend and wipe high. Could be my imagination. Or maybe only one wiper works on an "eco" mode to conserve the battery LOL

Uh, what's with the wipers?

Happy Birthday man!

Haha, well, when I was in high school, all I wanted was a Mark VIII... and it's funny--I would never buy a coupe, but because it was so large, it was okay

Gotta say.. my friend traded their Corolla in on the Mazda5, and it just doesn't do it for me. I mean, they wanted more room. My knees still touch the dash with the seat back. And adults can't sit in the third row. That's essentially seating for the dog now.

I found an image... Hot Lava Orange Edition: Oooh, purdy!
