Buick may owe its survival to China ‘We’ve been given a second chance,’

Quote from NumLock:

Triple LOL, Americans and Canadians love Asian and German cars. Just take a look at any street.

Turns out Asians like Buick LOL

"It was an unlikely but fortuitous choice. Last year, the brand was among the biggest in the booming Chinese market, accounting for sales of more than 447,000, or more than four times Buick’s volume in the U.S."

Some of those new buick's look tight - especially that Lacrosse. They have a supercharged version of it coming out - will probably be my next car.
 
Quote from clacy:

Buick has recently impressed me with their styling. For the past 30 years or so, their cars have looked very outdated and boring. They now have some good looking vehicles, IMO.

^this. Same with the Cadillac. GM shit-canned a lot of their design org a while back, got new blood in there.
 
Check out the Lucernne, that's the expensive version of the Lacrosse.

I rented a Lacrosse a few years ago and that thing built like a tank. I think the ground weight was something like 3700 lbs !!!!

That Buick crossover vehicle is a sexy bitch!
 
Quote from ChaosNSX:

I would think more so because Buicks were favored by the leaders of China including Henry P'u Yi the last emperor of China before capitalism slowly crept in. It seems more of a status symbol that one has arrived.

LOL, No-one care about him, he is a typical loser(extreme weak historical figure of China) in eyes of most Chinese. Buicks has plants in China where they build these car in China.

If you see an Asian drive Buick in NA, the chance are very high, 80%+, the driver is Chinese.
