Replying to: dodgeman07 (Aug 10, 2009 12:31 pm) The Regal will be similar in length to other popular mid-size cars (e. g., Camry, Passat). The new La Crosse, being almost full-size, is a bit longer than most mid-sizers. Replies to this message: dodgeman07 (Aug 11, 2009 8:37 am)

#86 of 226 Regal Grand National by hpmctorque Aug 12, 2009 (8:47 pm)
Maybe around 2012 or 2013 Buick will reintroduce the Grand National, perhaps on an AWD version of the new Regal platform. Presumably, some buyers will still value performance in the forthcoming high MPG age. Replies to this message: marsha7 (Aug 13, 2009 8:27 am) poodog13 (Aug 13, 2009 9:20 am)

Replying to: hpmctorque (Aug 12, 2009 8:47 pm) I applaud your optimism that GM will still be here in ANY form in 2013...if sufficient folks desert them, even MORE than that amount that put them into Ch 11, there will be a great skeleton that remains...foundries, assembly plants, all gathering dust from being shut down for good in 2011...

Replying to: marsha7 (Aug 13, 2009 8:27 am) GM's not in chapter 11 due to lack of sales volume. It's a cost issue. If you accumulate all GM sales across all brands, there's more than enough volume to sustain an automaker there. The issues are excessive marketing and design costs to maintain so many different lines and legacy costs associated with lifetime benefits and defined benefit pension plans.

I will agree with you that their sales should have sustained them...but their engineering and design has been on the downslide for decades, except for a few models...and quality has suffered severely, which I find difficult to place the blame for that on legacy costs, but rather on design of vehicle and the #%&* that assemble them...

Replying to: marsha7 (Aug 13, 2009 4:53 pm) ...and quality has suffered severely...   //////////////\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\   Buick quality has been among the best in the industry for several years now. My '06 Lucerne has been perfect in every respect. I have had it for 2 1/2 years and have put 30,000 miles on it.   Buick has 3 more new models coming on line in the next 18 months. They will do well.

I hope you are correct...
