Chris_Doane 07-06-2006, 10:20 PM Just a powertrain mule so far. From people who have seen the production model, Im hearing the visual changes on this will not amount to much. Has some big fat pipes though.

2000GTP 07-06-2006, 10:29 PM They are nice cars. My sisters godfather just bought one, too bad he didn't wait it out a little now that the LS4 looks like its going to make its way in there.
steves 07-07-2006, 12:28 AM I hope they lower it a little. Looks like a 4X4.
Threxx 07-07-2006, 12:51 AM I thought I read about a new car coming out from Buick that would actually market well side by side with the Lexus ES, rather than just look like the bargain bin alternative? I saw some pics and it definitely looked much better than the LaCrosse.
91_z28_4me 07-07-2006, 01:04 AM Wow those big rims make it look like a monster truck. Interesting to see the mule but when do we get to see the real thing?
CLEAN 07-07-2006, 12:13 PM They look like they're my SS wheels. They look ok on mine :D

Isn't that what the Lucerne is?

When buick created LaCrosse they specifically said it was to compete with the ES. Though evne they seem to have realized they fell short and a while back I heard commercials compariing the Lucerne with it, instead - which matches its price quite a bit better, but I'm not sure about the rest of the vehicle...
JakeRobb 07-07-2006, 12:42 PM How can Buick release a "Super" model without portholes?
Blasphemy!

Wow, totally missed the tape. I guess I just thought it was a reflection.
Caps94ZODG 07-08-2006, 07:35 AM it has to be more than just a little changes..it really has to make a statement..but in a sedated way..kinda like the SRT-8 300C
Good Ph.D 07-08-2006, 10:22 AM Damn people are sheep.
First comment on the article so douche getting his take on life from 20/20.... OMG WHY IS DETROIT RELEASING V8s IN AN ENERGY CRISIS.
Ehhhh.. Because people are buying them. I'll bet he thinks its the governments responsibility to keep him from smoking too. [/RANT]
That being said, I cant imagine this wont create a sales bump for them.

Blasphemy!
It has portholes, I've seen production cars.
Eric77TA 07-10-2006, 10:20 AM Looks like the portholes are taped over in those photos.
JakeRobb 07-10-2006, 02:22 PM I don't get why people respond to post #9 in a thread before they read posts #10 and #11. :shrug:
Caps94ZODG 07-10-2006, 11:52 PM what port holes..I dont see any port holes...

Fbodfather 07-10-2006, 11:55 PM there are visual changes.......esp. front end.
Caps94ZODG 07-11-2006, 07:10 AM I hope so...just to make it more "super"
2MCHPSI 07-11-2006, 09:25 AM By the pics, they should call it Super 4X4 :lol:
