Meh... Yea, nice interior, but base powertrain is not that impresisve for a semi luxury car imo. Also for a luxury car 23k is abit low of a price point, which is why I say the 2.0 Turbo should be the standard engine and bump up the price accordingly abit. With Pontiac Gone Buick has the freedom to be more athletic with its vehicles. Heck they could atleast put the 2.5 ltr. engine with more HP from the malibu in it instead of the 2.4, which I assume they will sooner or later.

I think it will be a good competitor to the TSX 4 cylinder

Hey now, nothing wrong with being a Buick guy, I am one.

Good job, GM! This will be another great car, I'm sure.
