The author of an article in Forbes hints very strongly that Buick is in trouble, big time. One exerpt........................ "The truth is that Buick sales are already in a steep slide, and the division has killed far more models than it is adding. In the last year, it dropped the Park Avenue, Regal and Century sedans. The new Terraza minivan is on the endangered species list. Buick will probably sell 250,000 vehicles this year, which is be less than what Oldsmobile sold when it was given the death sentence." Read the entire article here. _________________ GM!!! BRING BACK OLDS!!!

at this rate right now, I think i am owning the last GM car I will own. They're doing it to themselves. It's pretty bad when there's no car they offer than even a die-hard GM fan like myself wants to buy.

For sure, my next car is going to be the new Lexus GS430. I'll wait until next year to lease, when its the model year 2007. Although the new Solstice kind of makes me want to hold on to the Aurora as a everyday car and buy that for fun.

The future GS430s are looking nice. A lot like the newer Nissans and Infinitis... lots of inbreeding in the Jap car look lately...

I know man -- lol. Hey, you see any of them ugly Rendezvious around you?? GOD They are ugly! That was a big mistake for GM i think -- big one. I would rather see Saturn go than Buick, but its all about the numbers. Always see tons of Saturns -- and college kids buying them cause they are so cheap, so the sales are there I guess.
