....had been a Chevy Impala instead, which car would sell more copies? You take the LaCrosse, restyle it only slightly (grille, etc.) to be a Chevy, and market it as the new improved Impala (a la Malibu). Would that car get more sales than the Buick? IMHO the answer is YES. Which is why Buick is a mistake and one less division would lower GM's costs and increase their sales. |

Replying to: tlong (Jul 04, 2009 9:08 am) Unfortunately, that's because Impala is currently designated as fleet-fodder. Putting a LaCrosse relative in a fleet-fodder slot will hurt in the long run. Impala really kinda sucks, but that's why it's perfect for fleet-fodder. Make the Chevy LaCrosse a Celebrity or Lumina, keep Impala and make it fleet-only.
