TTQ B4U Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 I like the concept but for it to be a real success it needs to be different than just a rebranded Caddy, needs to have shit tons of power, I'd even toy with the idea of AWD if it's not RWD, coupe....meh....won't sell nearly as well. In the end, it will likely be like most other cars of this level today, very nice but overpriced. Let's hope GM gets it right. Take me back to 1987 where a GN sold for $18k and kicked the shit out of just about anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Looks cool to me, aside from the Vette and Camaro GM is lacking some interesting cars. Buick could really use this, and with the CTS going away Caddy does too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take me back to 1987 where a GN sold for $18k and kicked the shit out of just about anything. Maybe it's just me, but I wish somebody would offer their performance models with tons of option deletes, cloth seats, and super basic everything. Just give me the go fast shit. I would, for example, be a buyer for a V6 bodied Mustang with no options, power nothing, and the 5.0/6-speed combo.... or something along those lines. If it knocks 5 grand off the entry price, I'm interested. Basically I'd like the finest mechanical goodies in the cheapest, ugliest chassis you've got, and sell it to me.

BrendanB Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Liking the idea of this since Buick is basically dead to everyone except suburban moms and older people. It'll be interesting to see if this can reignite Buick like the CTS-V did for Cadillac; it definitely has a lot to live up to, though. Now I just need 35k for that Twin Turbo V6 with the 6 speed...

I would bet you it'll be more in the range of $45k+. Look at Srt8 Chargers. Holy shit. $50k for a fucking charger? Give me a break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuicedH22 Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 four door fail I say 4 door win.... much better suited market for a Buick, when they want to compete with european/japanese performance sedans, also a healthy replacement for the dead Pontiac G8 that was well liked. Im sure this will be a 4000lb hog just like every other damn GM car thats supposed to be "performance" sedan.. yea, just like that hog of a CTS-V that was suppose to be a "performance" sedan... its not like it holds the production sedan lap record at the 'ring or anything when it came out... only to still sit as the 3rd fastest sedan behind a Porsche Panamera Turbo and a new WRX STI.... Yea GM sure as hell doesnt know how to make performance sedans, do they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea GM sure as hell doesnt know how to make performance sedans, do they? "Performance Sedans" are the problem. Why, exactly, has the coupe died? Sports cars are 2 doors, that might have something that looks like a back seat to keep the insurance companies happy, not big fat family haulers.
