Man those are some good pics #3! Are they your pics or someone else took them? Just wondering, because the front wheels weren't exactly staged in... well, most of the photos. Sorry just my OCD getting the best of me.

Neat fact: The States-side LaCrosse is called Allure in Canada, even though they are the same car. And really, i like the name Allure a bit better.
That car looks so good, it almost makes me want to get it instead of a CTS!

Not anymore. LaCrosse is now LaCrosse worldwide.

Ah no - Lacrosse is slang for "playing with my p*ssy" in Quebec. It's still an Allure up here.

Time to come out of the past, boys.

Not like they give you much choice, a polished turd or a polished turd....

I like Buick, but I have a prediction: If GM fails to turn around financially within the next two years, this brand will be the next to be euthanized.

RIP: Saturn, Pontiac, Olds, Hummer (being sold) :(

I really hope so!

No. It's now LaCrosse. They're changing the badging on them.

Says the guy who wants GM to bring back the Firebird to compete directly with Camaro...

[SleepWarz]

Lol, Coming from somebody who owns a fairly recent gm that isnt a Camaro....

I kid I kid...

In all fairness if GM developed a proper one, not these aftermarket ones which are nice but fail to hit the mark because its just a modded '10 camaro. And honestly choose the wrong generation and colour scheme to go with.

No, GM shouldn't develop a Firebird at all. Why?

A) Pontiac is dead.
B) Overlapping products is bad enough, you're suggesting GM build a car to directly compete with an existing one, which is horrible business sense.
C) Easier said than done.

Why support the lack of choice we have? Rather than encouraging having a selection. You know so down the road people will be able to have more than 3 types of a car across three MAJOR manufacturers. If it was bad from a business sense why the hell did Pontiac exsist in the first place, same with Olds? They obviously appealed to someone then and I bet if they designed something nice rather than the normal egg mobiles built around a V shaped trunk with slant eyed headlights it may have worked out....
No wonder we cant order Camaros with a LS7 in them with attitudes like that.
But that's just me =) Don't take it personally.

Funny, both those divisions are now canned. Why? Because they cannibalized sales from stronger divisions.

It's time to get your head out of the past. The market and industry has changed tremendously since the days when having 8 divisions selling more or less the same car was feasible.

Is it just me, or is this car using "parts bin" switchgear from the 2010 Camaro?

Look at the Headlight switch and the steering column controls!
