last gen Seville was FWD. I though it looked really good too. But when has Lexus (or Toyota for that matter) ever cited their cars as having torque advantages? The public looks at hp more than torque as well, so the number could come back to bite GM. But Buick has topped Toyota Corp in quality studies by JD Power, so maybe the hp numbers wont matter that much if Buick advertises this.

great.... oh well, at least the Northstar has 275 hp. But 3 hp really wont make a difference. I dont understand why Buick cant at least put the 300 hp Northstar in the Lucerne like the one used in the '02 Seville.

Ditch the 3800 or give it more power. Lexus and others will make a point over the ES's 260-something standard hp vs. the Lucerne's 197 standard hp. The new 6 speed couldnt hurt either.

I dont think that there is anything wrong with the exterior, and the interior is better looking than my Sonoma, but the 5-cylinder needs to go. The 4300 V6 in my Sonoma works just great, I dont understand why GM just couldnt fiddle around with it to squeeze some more power out. At least the new 5 cracks 220 hp so Toyota cant claim an hp advantage.

Didnt Cadillac have side vents on its cars before a Range Rover was invented? And since when has a Lexus LX470 been known as the hotrod of SUVs?I live near a Lexus dealer and I have yet to see an LX be driven off the lot. If the new Escalades are so bad, why did it beat the Range Rover in the May edit of Motor Trend?

I think that the car looks great, but it could really do without the huge holes in the fender. If Olds really wanted them, maybe some more rounded holes would have looked better. The stripes look good...kind of takes your eyes off the snort holes up front.
