Is there any point to the CTS 2.8?
what if they upgrade the 2.8 w/ DI turbo'd and then it'll make 300hp...oh wait... the 3.6 will do that.. the turbo just gives it a very nice torque curve, of course, but if it was given DI "plain" it might beable to replace a car or 2's 3.5L, maybe. maybe the next lacrosse or aura's base engine.... eh?

Bought a 2006 Malibu MAXX SS
very nice, I'd consider the same if i had $ to buy a car, oh and i had to buy one that has to be the best color for that car IMHO, personally, i'd be interested in what kinda MPG you get since it's rated so low it seems.

aura 3.5 v 3.9L
doesn't the aura have a ~224hp 3.5L base engine right? that's ~13 hp over the impala, so can they (re)tune the 3.9L for more like 250 easily if they wanted? or did gm just move the torque up the powerband to have a HO 3.5L for saturn?

Comments for Buick President
the rainer is going away with the 'vous, being replaceed by the enclave, it is official, just fyi. the 3.5 in the lacrosse, i'd rather see a fully tuned 3.6L opt, but the 3.9L w/ afm be the base engine. maybe "portholes" on the 3.6L too?

Comments for Buick President
thx, anything specific? i'd love to fix up a wagon like i had, maybe some ls4 in it, oh and at least a 4 speed ... just make it a sleeper or something made tons of memories with it. mine had the 3.8L (remanufactured) w/ 3speed, what'd yours have? i read yours on the site, i understand that the way buick's going it would work well being grouped in together w/ gmc and pontiac, but i do hope they fully thought out going the other way and just give them a more well rounded line up, aka a zeta "riviera" (before changing the lucerne over) and something aimed more for an entry vehicle that still fits very well in the buick line up, but i do realize some limits the epII lacrosse will have to deal with. totally agree about talking about product more, but i guess the sponsored golf tournaments seem to come so quickly in succesion shortened this post since wildcat's post is above.

Comments for Buick President
what i wrote "Sir, I'm only 23, but my first car i had to drive was the 83 regal wagon. That car had been in the family for one year less than it's full life, but I loved it. It was the only car like it anywhere I drove it. It had "quirks" and character by that time. losing it a few years ago in a wreck made me hope to own another buick sometime. I love to see the lucernce on the road, but was disappointed by what it lacked from the promised 6speed and such. The lacrosse, i still like to see them on the road, but really hope it can be even better when you release more info for the Super, and the next iteration. The enclave looks very promising, and I hope it's even bigger of a hit than the 'vous and rainier combined. Please continue the "Buick renaissance" that started truely with the lucerne, and I feel you do need a vehicle aimed much more at the younger than target buyers, something in more the spirit of the Grand National. I do have hopes that Buick can start creating more vehicles that are very "Buick", a pleasure to drive, and still offer more to bring in new customers and once buick fans. Thank you and do your best to restore Buick's appeal to more people."

07 PACIFICA
that's just a little more torque than the 4.3 vortec yeah...but it is also 60hp more too depending on the power curves, this looks like it isn't much better than the 3.6L. prolly a good boost for the vehicle, for those that actually tow anything with it
