Current one looks 10x better. This one looks way to smushed and tall.

You are stone cold **** nuts if you think this


look better then that..

[Anti_Rice_Guy]

Neither looks drop dead sexy, but the new one just looks weird to me.

Not really a big fan of the new styling and having a roll up door on the console? Hello 1982.

Better drive trains sounds good and AWD is always a nice idea in a sedan and is going to be someone's daily driver.

[maroman88]

wats it with all the new cars and having head and tail lights that are HUUUUUUUUUGE...

looks ok tho

[NJ Torque]

If it only came with a V8...

Ohhh that, yeah well thats big everywhere. It hides the cup holders when not in use. Its becoming more and more common.

I posted about the new 2010 LaX and Im no GM's nuts...how?
I figured I'd share.

If you can find a car like this from Saturn or Chevy, let me know. Hell, this is better in certain aspects then the CTS.

hahaha you bitch about "rehash" product, and then say gmc ftw. lol that's hypocrisy to the max.....the only vehicles they make that arent rehash are ****ing box trucks

[NastyEllEssWon]

gmc makes gm plenty of money with their work trucks. that enough leaves me to say they should stay.


saturn aura and the new 9-5 saab are on the same platform as the buick, not to mention the malibu will make the hop on over to the same platform as well. leaving the buick dragging ass behind once again.


all of gm's customers that grew up with buick being the pinnacle of luxary are dead or dying, mostly not driving anymore. cadillac sits where buick used to. Buick now sits where olds used to....and we see how that went

The Aura is on Epsilon 1, along with the G6 and Current Malibu.
LaCrosse is on Epsilon 2, along with the Opel Insigna
The 9-5 is supposed to eventually find its way onto EP2, if it makes it to market.
Right now, the LaX is the only EP2 car shown for America.

[NastyEllEssWon]

malibu and aura are making the jump to the epsilon 2 within one model year of the buick.


edit: 9-5 will be out alongside with the buick at the same time. awd will be available on that as well.

[BigAls87Z28]

Aura might or might not make it. Its been put on hold.
Malibu is up next for American EP2.
9-5 was supposed to be the first EP2 car, before Insigna, before LaX...
Now its going to be, at best, third, but most likely be placed 4th or released along side Malibu.
The Insigna could come here as a Buick Regal like it will in China. The Aura will not be a clone or take its design from Opel, as Buick and Opel are now aligned as Global Partners within GM.

Beautiful! So what's the MSRP going to be? Only thing I'm not crazy about are the headlamps...don't like how they wrap around and come to a point. And are those vents/portholes on the hood??? Hard to tell but that's a very nice touch.

[MonmouthCtyAntz]

Not bad

[bobb1589]

wow i like it... definitely doesnt look like an old timers car anymore

[12secondv6]

meh

[band77one]

kinda reminds me of an acura in a wierd way

[BurninrubberGT]

eh its ok

[BigAls87Z28]

Msrp hasn't been announced yet but I figure it might start out around 30k. And yes those are portholes on the hood.

I would agree with that or possibly a Lexus. With this car I am wondering if GM is trying to do the same thing that Hyndai (spelling) is trying to do with their Genesis sedan. Whatever the case, very nice car.

[bobb1589]

i would consider buying it as a low priced luxury car
