2007 Sentra
I think it looks good. A baby Max. Same way the Corolla is a baby Avalon. They won't looks so close for long... the new Max will be out shortly, looking alot like the Teanna.

2006 NAIAS: Infiniti Coupe Concept
This is what I've been waiting to see. This concept is an absolute stunner. It puts the current version to shame; and that's really saying something. Infiniti continues to have the tightest headlamp assemblies in the business (IMO). The rear looks grea, the front looks agressive, but also sexy. The flowing lines are very Italianate here, and the result is a car that looks way more expensive than it'll sell for. The rims are SICK! I'm smiling most of all, because of the beautiful interior. The really need to translate the concept's interior to the the production's with minimal changes. I love everything about it; especially the steering wheel. And the guages are very nicely done. I really hope the sedan turns out to be a four door version, or something very close (with little differentiation).

Lexus Reveals 2007 LS 460
The exterior is clean, and very safe. This time, with the new Lexus design "theme that's supposed to make it a family of cars. The GS still looks the best, IMO. As far as the interior, I absolutely love it. It's the best in the majors, save for the A8. I don't like the S's or 7's at all. But the S's exterior styling kills the LS.

2006 NAIAS: Buick Enclave Concept
LOL. Hell, I'm with ya. Both the Rendezous and Rainer can go the way of the Aztek. With the Lacrosse, Lucerne, Enclave, along with the hopefuls (RWD flagship,Velite, Theta+ CUV under the Enclave), Buick's looks really good.

2006 NAIAS: Buick Enclave Concept
I love this Enclave, in every way. But when it comes out in a year, the FX's V6 will be a 3.7L at around 310HP. The RX's 3.5L will make more than 270HP, but less than the IS's 306HP. The TL makes 270HP right now, but the next one will get a small bump. That said, who cares if the Enclave won't be a HP leader. It's genuinely competitive at 270HP. And that's not where it's supposed to shine, anyway. I'm sure refinement, fit and finish, materials, and quiteness will all be class leading. That's what counts for the Enclave. And let's not forget the new 4.7L V8 coming.

2006 NAIAS: Buick Enclave Concept
I'm still wiping the tears away. It's beautiful. As far as what most have said, DITTO. This is just, beyond words. Everything we've asked for. The HFV6 is making 270HP... thank the Lord. It's everything I was hoping it'd be. It's a must, that the production stays very close to the concept. That's all I have to say. I'll go back to staring at the pics, now. And as Northstar's new signature says, "WHAT'S A LEXUS??!!!!" REALLY, I MEAN, LEXUS WHO???? RX WHAT?????? THIS SUV, IN THIS FORM, WILL CRUSH THE COMPETITON. PERIOD.

C&G First Scoop! Some Buick Enclave Details
What do you know of the new 4.7L UV8?

C&G First Scoop! Some Buick Enclave Details
The grill looks like it'll be a really "looker". I love the headlamp treatment. Though I can't see them, I'm happy that the ventiports will be there. They are an absolute must, IMO. I can't wait to see the whole thing!!

Buick Lucerne: my review of my test drive
Same here. I'll be 27 in Feb. I'm considering a Lucerne in the furture (6mo-1yr). I love Buick, but they never had anything that I REALLY wanted (well, atleast not since I could drive). The Lucerne is on my very short list. Also... I CAN'T WAIT to see the Enclave. :P
-
Buick Lucerne or Impala SS?
Lucerne. For the all of the reasons stated above, and much much, more. I didn't even have to think about my vote.

2007 Lexus ES350 spy shots
You're right. I think this car will look good (for the first time in many, many years).

Buick Enclave info
I'm not an insider. But from the Lambda spy shots we've seen of the Outlook and GMC, the crossovers will be "true crossovers" (RX,Murano,FX). The have the height, ground clearance, and look other SUVs. The new R-Class is a new breed, I think. Geez, I can't wait to see the Enclave!

Buick Lucerne: my review of my test drive
Hehe, that's how I feel. :)
-
OK, briefly, do you like...
LOL. I never really liked the concept's exterior. The interior is awesome. I always that that with just a little tweeking, a beautiful concept like the Velite could have been brought to life.
-
Buick Enclave info
I agree 100%! I can't believe GM would give up on that ENTIRE market segment... WTF. It can't be hard for GM to make a great minivan. I'll say it again; make two. A Chevy, and a premium Saturn. Make them as unique as possible. Copy DCX's sto and go feature; make them no smaller than the Odyssey; give them the HFV6. Auto doors, etc. etc. etc. Go for it!

2006 NAIAS: Chrysler Imperial Concept
Now THAT, I agree with. The interior is very nice. This concept's exterior design doesn't do anything for me. But it makes a statement for Chrysler. In my eyes, Buick's image and brand postitioning is way higher than Chrysler's. You don't see any Buick PT Crusiers putting around... and Buick continues to inch it's image firmly into the lux realm. Buick needs a flagship that is imposing, crisp (as opposed to the current jellybean designs), with alot of Buick styling ques and a powerful V8. Something to compete with the LS... and an Invicta would probably cost more than an Imperial. As far as price overlap with Caddy, so what? In time, Caddy will have a V8 only flagship of it's own to compete with the S and 7, and it'll be priced way higher than the Invicta (which would should be priced around a STS V8, IMO).
-
ULS
I agree. A V12 ULS will be perfect for them in the future. But right now, they've got to get the cars that pays the bills right. And from there, use that as a spring board to the ULS, and becoming the Standard of the World again. BTW, I hope they use that slogan again in the future... It's perfect for them (or atleast, I hope it will be).
-
2007 Lexus ES350 spy shots
It's hard to tell just how "boring" it'll be. I'm sure it'll be the safest of all Lexus designs, but with the GS and IS out, I hope it'll have atleast a little flair. I do love the idea of the glass roof option. That's hawt.
-
Jeep Compass Spy Shots
Exactly. The Liberty is due to grow in size, while the Patriot and Compass take over for Liberty (one for offroad buyers, one for car based buyers).
-
Retro Riviera
I agree 100%. The Velite would be perfect.
-
Enclave engine/trans confirmed
Yep. Everything indicated so far points to the 3.6L HFV6 being the base engine (as it should be) in the Enclave, with a 6sp and optional V8. Ofcourse, there's no use in trusting Edmunds. I just can't wait to see the production version.
-
Is Velite on the way?
I really hope it's the Enclave, and not a an Asia only vehicle.
