I have no written source but I did contact a colleague of mine currently working in Shenzhen. The latest news over there state that both claims (Buick down, Gm up) are somewhat true. Buick's sales has been declining since last year. However, Chevrolet and Cadillac's sales are up. That's why GM cancelled it's plan to expand Buick production (there's not even a single news about this here, Buick expanding??? When?) and opened Shenyang plant instead. Cadillac's sales unexpectedly went up, with Escalade (GM sell it there?) and CTS doing good, STS and BLS a disaster. Chrysler 300 meanwhile, remains the most popular entry level luxury car (yes, Cadillac is considered entry level there). |

Maybe this is why the Avalon is DOA, and the Lucerne soldiers on.

Replying to: steve_ (Jan 10, 2009 12:37 pm) Get over it Buick...snap it up or die. At least this has some attempt at design in it...considering the evolution of past GM design iterations, this is eons ahead in 1 model year.  Regards, OW
