Whatever it is, it should have a pill dispenser as the average geriatric has 9 meds.

I think a LaCrosse Ultra as a Impala SS/GP GXP clone is redundant. Almost as redundant as the Torrent and G5. If it can't be some sort of unique Epsilon or maybe a suped up Lucerne, it's redundant.

I agree, a super-Lacrosse sounds neat but overlapping. A step up from Solstice, Velite, would bring in more young professional types.
They need to shake things up, and build the Velite..."fast with class"....

Only problem is, most older people I see lately are in Toyota Camry's and Avalon's or Crown Vic's, Buicks seem to be getting more middle aged family types.

Re: Lutz: Even Buick should have a performance car.

i honestly think the velite would be a nice way to go. Hell build it on the Camaro platform but give it different suspension (maybe magnetic ride), northstar v8, A6 trannsmission, HID lights that turn as you do, and enough luxury with a plush feeling (note plush is key) to make anyone feel like a king. price it at around 45k and itd be good to go. The SC 430 starts at 66,000 so i think 45k would be very reasonable.
