G8 to live on as a... (update j/k)

wtf you can’t say you have pics and not post them

Picture the first picture in black. I actually liked the slants in the fender.
Photos are at home. :snky:

Edit: also picture it dirty and salty

duane paddock was telling me today how in china, if you have a buick…its like having a bentley. they are THE coolest thing to have there. not that bentleys are that cool here, but you get it

And Duane knows cool. I saw him rocking out in a purple SSR back in the day.

But yes Buick is a premium vehicle there.
As for performance, cool video '87 Grand National vs Regal CXL Turbo

Cliffs:
1/4 GN
Slalom: CXL
Braking: CXL

WTF, i would have considered this. got a cts instead.

So it’s a chevy cruze front end, and an old impala rear end? Mehh.

I hope that’s not what it will look like. That’s fucking ugly.

That is beyond Bland.

The cruze front end has more going on up front than that.

The American designers at GM fucking blow.

Meh it’s your typical bland styling cars have now.

+1

I’m actually in Detroit right now and we’re going to the auto show tomorrow. I was surprised by lincoln last year and I specifically ignored any news on the auto show until I got here. Unfortunately I don’t think I will be surprise this year by chevy…

What a huge step backwards from the G8.

Any chance that’s just a test mule?

Any the domestic humpers wonder what we have against them :fail:

I’m sure an SS version would somehow spice up the Cruzpala in the looks department.

For sure. Based on the exhaust, I am sure this is not the production vehcile.
I was just happy to see/hear anything about this car since it has been a while since I heard anything on it.

The Taurus undercover cop car all blacked out looked good at the show. Not good like I wanted to buy it, but much better than the stock car.

Agreed, that just looks awful compared to a G8. I know its not the final one but Chevy just has this way of making horribly boring looking cars.

I find it hard to believe it’s going to be that bland. Chevy has a corporate style now, and it’s more like this:

Looking at those 3 you can see a shared style. Throw in that Lumina and even my 4 year old could point out the one that doesn’t match.

EDIT: NM. I see you’re talking about ron’s pics, not LZ’s vid. :io:
