LAPD 2012 Chevrolet Caprice PPV
CHP put in an order for a bunch of Crown Vics while they could. They use a few Chargers for pursuit vehicles, but they don't provide enough space for gear to use as regular patrol vehicles. Don't expect them to get Caprices anytime soon because of budget issues.

2011 Buick Regal CXL and CXL TURBO (UPDATED WITH TURBO MANUAL)
I drove the Regals several times at the Main Street in Motion event, plus the Lacrosse. The course had a decent straightaway and plenty of curves. The Regal is as impressive as all the auto mags have said, and the base model is no slouch. They could hold their own against the Acura TSX and TL. The Lacrosse is cushy and in an entirely different segment.

I'd rather GMAP did the design for a Riv and Velite
Regal wasn't designed to be a Buick, thus it looks nothing like a Buick other than the grille. The Riviera concept, while nice, never really struck me as being a Riviera.

Yesterday, a Volt at Target. Today, a hybrid Yukon and a hybrid Silverado that was lowered and with ginormous chrome wheels.

What did you do to your ride today?
My IS300 has had a dead battery the last three months, and I finally replaced it with a new Costco battery a couple of weeks ago. I gave the car a wash on Saturday.

Cadillac Seville Elegante
The other Seville is an '81 with the V8-6-4. If that car belongs the seller, it's interesting that he would be keeping that one, but perhaps it has some interesting mods.

Daily vs. Fun Drivers
Sorry to hear about the potential demise of the Starlet. I know how much it meant to you. I've always been amused that as such a big guy you were able to fit comfortably into it.
