January 11, 200917 yr Why wouldn't a high power version be AWD? It not only would but also it should. I'd still rather see that Hi-Po variant in a smaller model such as the Regal.
January 12, 200917 yr 4,000 lbs? Mid-size V6 sedan? Sheesh. Pig. Sexy pig, but still... pig. Peformance and fuel economy will not be what they could be. A Lexus ES is under 3,600. 4,000 lbs? Where does it come from? What could this thing possibly have that requires 500 extra pounds? Some things never change at GM. Flame away. Edited January 12, 200917 yr by bcs296
January 12, 200917 yr You know what I think it looks like an F150. Clearly they are similar. See how it has four wheels, four doors, headlights and a grill? Totally similar. I would recommend a thorough eye exam for you. Poor thing.
January 13, 200917 yr this is the best looking buick sedan since the 95 riv (and how long BEFORE THAT?) and yet people are being raggy about it looking 'foreign' or 'not buick'. step back people. this is huge. enjoy it for once! that said, seems to me like some of the interior plastic could be better. cool thing. park this thing NEXT to the 95 riviera. they look perfectly in company with each other, don't they?

January 13, 200917 yr this is the best looking buick sedan since the 95 riv (and how long BEFORE THAT?) and yet people are being raggy about it looking 'foreign' or 'not buick'. Its the second best looking Buick since the '95 Riv. I thought the new Chinese Park Avenue was the best looking Buick since the '95 Riv... but granted, it doesn't look Buick enough. cool thing. park this thing NEXT to the 95 riviera. they look perfectly in company with each other, don't they? I don't see it... but it is closer than the F150 comparison earlier... the Buicks clearly don't have a bed. ;-) I see it in the interior, however.

It is bigger than the ES350, it is the same size as the Avalon. However an Avalon starts at 3490 lbs, and is 3610 for the limited. So LaCrosse is 450-500 more. It could be cheap steel that is heavy; lighter weight metals cost more and GM has to nickle and dime somewhere.
