September 13, 200520 yr check out the interior of this one. I saw the Bengal in Detroit a few years back...very slick, but I like the Velite better. At this point, if Buick made a Terrazza convertible I'd buy it! Just give us a ragtop! http://www.autointell.com/nao_companies/ge...k-bengal-01.htm
September 14, 200520 yr I was one to criticize the Bengal at introduction. I feel stupid now. It was a kneejerk reaction. Mainly because of the overly huge grill and lack of anything better to do with the nose because it was still in the torpedo format being used during that and earlier period. I just wanted more body lines I guess. Velite did that but the Bengal had a few really good ideas. "Buick where we build dreams and then crush them"
September 14, 200520 yr I really like horizontal, linear dashes like this in Buicks. I don't know why, it just says Buick to me.
December 26, 200520 yr Author It looks like this would be an easy car to produce. Buick needs to make something sporty for Tiger.
December 27, 200520 yr Terraza convertible? That's the strangest idea I ever heard,lol... But this Bengal seriously should've gone to production-a bit less bloated in the exterior styling and design, based on stretched Kappa (98" or so wheelbase), with 2.8-liter and 3.6-liter DOHC High Feature 210 and 255hp V-6 engines, and to compete with Chrysler Crossfire and BMW Z4.
