My friend went with me today to the auto show and he had nothing to complain about except for saturn cars. Every single one of them had the steering wheel waaaay to low, he damn near has to break his legs to get into every car. He will be sad to see saturn leave, but he won't be hurt either.

I'd hate to see Buick go, being that it is GM's foundation company. Remember that the guy that founded Chevrolet opened Buick years beforehand, and it was a great success. It also sells very well in China. The image is what is wrong with it. Being stuffy makes it a weak competitor in the market. They need to compensate with something over-the-top. I think Buick should get a Corvette to redesign, a muscle car to run with the big dogs, and an economic luxury car that features green technology. These ideas would produce a diverse image and will allow the unique design components of Buick cars to more parts of the market.
How about a buick Grand National/GNX based off the zeta platform?
