Doesn't look like Wagoner is going anywhere soon.
-
i know the rainer is bowing out after 07, and so is the Ascender. it'll just be envoy, trailblazer, and 9-7x(although not that much longer)
-
gross, statesman is a HORRIBLE name. Invicta kinda had a nice ring in line with the others. Lucerne, Enclave, Invicta.. Buick better not kill off the Lucerne name either, good name on a good car.
-
i think it looks pretty good, compared to the previous non-nav version. i'd like to see it with a NAV system to reserve final judgement. looks much smoother, and much better wood.
-
that's beyond bad...

no, because the number of luxury and performance vehicles, along with the sheer number of trucks wouldn't make V8's a "novelty status in the industry".
-
You're ignoring the fact the V10 was also canceled b/c of the MAJOR issues it had. The engine was not going to make financial sense, nor was the quality up to par with other V-10's (Audi, BMW). As far as I know, GM's V-12 plan wasn't canceled, but rather sits on the back burner.
-
NONE of those sell in high volume? DTS is the #1 selling luxury vehicle, i wouldn't say that's small volume. In the average car, maybe V6 will replace the V8, but as far as luxury and performance applications, and trucks. The V8 is far from it.
-
ha ha, a joke, right?
-
and those gauges are BEAUTIFUL, they better not change those!
-
Yeah i want them to keep them as in option. In a Buick 2nd and 3rd row buckets should be optional, if not standard!
-
I strongly agree with you there. I think GM probably does too. I think GM is taking a "wait and see" approach. If it appears Acadia is stealing a significant amount of Envoy sales. Envoy is Dunzo. Otherwise they might actually give it more than just a face lift in a few years. It people can get a a) bigger vehicle b) more room c) better fuel economy for the same price as an Envoy, then i see no reason why they'd buy envoy over the acadia.

i'd reserve judgement on the colors til i see them in person, but that's just me.

Just noticed this on the Cadillac.com site, and it's pretty badass looking. for XBOX 360 it's Project Gotham Racing 3 w/ the V-series Cadillacs it's a FREE expansion pack, that's right FREE. so if you can't buy one, you can still race'em. http://www.cadillac.com/vseriescollection/...fullscreen=true good call caddy on well placed advertising.
-
finally, a DECENT engine. it should out-perform the VUE, then in a few years, the new one will kick it around!
-
i think someone said there isn't enough room in the platform for the current H3, along with Colorado & Canyon, to fit all the hybrid components in?
-
i have no problem with the charger being large, i have a problem with it being ugly! anyways, it makes for pretty scenery to pass in a a 6sp 350+hp Camaro.
-
just to be sure, how would i know if there were rear differential issues on an 03/04 CTS?
-
What change to the Yukon are you referring to?
-
And if it has "AFM" then it'll get good fuel economy numbers too! imagine the possibilities!
-
that was a pretty sweet commercial, clever.

Saturn will be GM's hot brand this year, Lutz says
jbartley replied to Northstar's topic in Heritage Marques
I don't know how all these saturn salespeople and dealers are not wetting their pants with excitement for the next 2 years. It's going to be nonstop fun! aura, vue greenline, outlook, aura redline (est shown at NYIAS, for MY08), astra, new vue, aura greenline, outlook greenline, astra redline, new vue redline, etc insane i tell you! -
hmmm tiny 5 passenger sub-vue sized thetas? ok maybe. I hope maybe the saturn is 2+2 coupe style, that would be sweeet.

the 9-3 has a 6sp automatic already
