Need to drive by your local buick dealer and look at the lucerne and
their SUV--Very nice--i'm not a buick man either but they are slick--their car line is very streamlined as well---jim

yes but Cadillac has their hand in the same market. I see no reason why Buick buyers would not just step over into a Caddy. The thing about dumping Pontiac is that there are platforms there not in the rest of the GM line ala G8, Solstice, etc.

I wish the Pontiac G8 and G8GT would become the Impala and Impala SS, and Solstice would become another Chevy product to at least keep the quality products that finally reached production alive. If brands are being phased out, at least absorb the better models into the surviving brands to strengthen them.

solstice = saturn sky. Not bad cars. *No* trunk space w/the top down was a bad idea though...

They did well with detroit diesel, but if they follow the same path pretty soon our saturns will be owned by Germans and made by Chrysler.
