Replying to: mceb (May 14, 2009 9:46 am) My dealer states that June 15 is the target date to receive the first batch of 2010 Lacrosse. I am in Michigan. I too have been looking at new cars,including the MKZ. Watch yourself on the MKZ. These are the areas I did not like. The hood has a prop rod,and I don't like those,and certainly not on a high priced vehicle. Try and close the doors when a car is next to you,and you don't have the wide swing that you need. The door handles are placed to close to the front of the door and you don't have the fulcrum effect to help like handles that are in the normal mid door area. I also don't like the washers in the hood as they tend to freeze in the cold weather. Just my thoughts. TK

Ok, you are at the gas station,and you have to go to the passenger side to load up on fuel. I know wrong side,again. You have the key'"transponder",in your pocket which allows the ignition to be armed. Anyone can jump in drive the car away,but the engine will shut off when a certain distance is reached from the key. Don't know how far this is. Something to think about. TK

Why in the world am I going to buy a very base model looking car starting at $27k?? I looked up the car on the site and cannot believe that is what $27k is buying me. Steel wheels? You have got to be kidding me? Then starting $33k for anything else? I would much rather have something else..... Heck with new car sale prices I can get loaded car, that will hold its value, better quality, build, engine than this car...! However, nice concept though... its about time right? I like the car, but paying $27k for a glorified GM car is ridiculous! Its really not like their coming out with something that looks unique though... looks like any other car... GM, your a little late! What is it about the "guts" of this car that would convince me that it is any different that the less than satisfactory (when compared to the competition) cars that they already have around now. GM is well known for keeping the old. What is so new? I want new engine specs, newer technology under the hood, that makes me feel, wow! this has a good feel, it has quality behind it.. not just a rental fleet feel... or just another duplicate car. You certainly don't see a Lexus with steel wheels? In order to really hit the competition with this car, take the average between $27k-33k pricing and give only 2 trims as an option. Put the cars price at $30k, with a decent load of goodies. Get rid of the silly and tacky looking base model, that just ruins the concept all together. It would not be a big deal to have the base model, but at this price!? No acceptable. I love the car, but GM is soooo late with this car... there are so many other cars that I would pick before this, that have been out so much longer with much better technology, and value. For one, I am not sure I want to buy from a bankrupt company...  It will be hot seller I am sure. perhaps forever changing its market target. I think of GM like this, sweet on the outside, but a little sour on this inside.. they have their frills, features, looks perhaps, but take a look closer on the inside, it is really no different, no real focus on bettering its soul! Stale. Anyway, on a rampage.. I hope the car is a hit! I love it! Would I buy it, no. Certainly not with the cheapo steal wheels. haha. Get real. GM, what is with your steel wheels with the hubs? Did you know, most new Malibu's have Steel wheels, not real rims! Most GM cars all now have steelies. Even middle trimmed models.

Go buy your Buick and get to know a mechanic well because you'll be spending plenty of time there!! Plus who knows how many Buick franchises will be around in 6 months!!!! Get an education or do some research before you make a statement as foolish as this one! |

It has been flawless as have most new Buicks. Acura quality lags behind Buick as do other Asian makes. Tough for the rice-burner fans to accept but true. |
