  1. 2012 Buick Regal lease
  2. Justin Bimmer replied to Justin Bimmer's post in a topic in Buick
    The lease is actually the one being offered on Buick.com! 39mo 39,ooo miles .18 a mile over With tax and stuff included in payment 341 a mont and my grand pix trade in of 1000 paid theup front costs. This car has so many standard features.
  3. I'm not seeing the crazy modifications to the production design over the concept. The windows on the side are now functional and the fog lamps are a bit different.

    So yesterday I leased a Buick Regal. It doesn't arrive until most likely Tuesday. It's black onyx and black leather interior. I got the n/a version and the automatic, although I did drive the turbo stick, it was too expensive. Can't wait for it to arrive.
  5. The color choice on this particular photo is terrible. I think I have seen like 1 Cadillac in the last 10 years wear that color. Why not black or white diamond? The two most popular colors?

    I nominate this as thread of the year. Great chronology. Can't wait to see the Tahoe 4x4ing over some snow. I also suggest that everybody select at the top the the thread. "Follow this topic"
  7. I'm here. The wonder years is really hard to watch.

    For an engine rebuild n00b what does all this mean?

    So I understand your reckoning for days of yore and all, but the dimensions you listed are for a vehicle that is not the typical truck being sold on the lot. Extended cab trucks are most common. Do you have comparasion numbers for that size truck?

    CNG is a pain in the butt. Less efficient more expensive per comparabe energy output. Also the tanks that hold the CNG have to be replaced every ten years. Plus to have a decent range forget about a trunk.
  11. Is that a Chrysler Sebring in the photo on the first post?
  12. My friend has one with the automatic transmission and he says it is shifting hard. It appears to be a sealed system. Can those be drained by any shop or is that a dealer only thing?

    I'm impressed with how quickly you are doing all of this. I love the photos keep them coming please!
  14. Didn't this thing called hyperstrut come out oh 5 years ago that basically eliminates torque steer.

    I'm with olds on speed readout. This day in age with spedos going to 150, there is barely any space between 10mph increments. I usually pop up the digital spedo and use that instead.
  16. Some would say it is the ONLY factor. The question is, do they know which wheels drive the car?
  17. Usually, rental companies cannot promise you a specific car, but most companies do have the Cruise available. I saw them last weekend at Hertz, Avis, and Enterprise. You can always call or go to the location and inquire and maybe you might be able to request that particular car.
  18. Thanks for clarification.
  19. 3.3 L EGA V6 3.8 L EGH V6
  20. Yeah, let's put that ole 4.1 litre 135hp v8 in it cause ANY V8 is better than a V6 I4 or V2 right? Edit: By the way, the K-car Chrysler Imperial came with a V6 so that analogy makes no sense.
  21. This logic is flawed. Engine size, dimension, aspiration, color, creed, etc. are IRRELEVANT as long as the HP and Torque and MPGs are all class competitive or leading.
  22. That image is still the concept. That is not the production model.

    That's what I thought that was...something funny about the steering wheel buttons, though. The wheel on the CUE mock up is not the wheel that they currently use in the SRX. I'm guessing it is the future Cadillac wheel.
