Dammit, Fen!!

Lol, wut? Lexus is a "low-tier" luxury brand? Lexus and Mercury should not even be mentioned in the came breath, first of all. Second of all, I don't think Buick is aiming for mercury anyways, they aimed for the lexus es with the lacrosse, along with the genesis, 300, Taurus.
You are cutting Lexus way short, Lexus is just as much of a luxury brand as BMW, Audi, and Mercedes

EDIT: Ok, I read through more posts, and I completely agree with syr here. Lexus is in no ways a "low-tier" luxury brand," if anything, even cadillac is lower than Lexus. Buick is meant for hyundai, lincoln, VW, and acura. Not really for Infiniti, because Infiniti is still a competitor with BMW for sports sedan and SUV's.
And I think all the Buick hate comes from the fact that it's always been an old man's car. Seriously, what is GM trying to do, make a medium between Chevy and Cadillac? Doesn't that just take away sales from itself.
And as for this specific Regal, compare it to the VW CC. That car is sportier and sexier, what is Buick aiming for?
