GM Reveals Buick Avista Concept - Page 6

MLL67RSSS · 01-15-2016, 06:22 AM

I've been waiting for someone to comment, am I the only one that sees a "Aston Martin" Buick, not that that is a bad thing at all in this case.

Have both been done in the same car? I think it would be cool if GM could pull this off, but I am not going to hold my breath.

Looks like they are somehow getting the idea people want this car.

Cascada being a halo car is a joke. It's a nice and solid product for Buick, but Avista would do waaaay more for Buick as a halo than Cascada.

I have to agree.

Man, if this comes in manual I'm going to have to take a hard look at it.

...if you squint hard enough I guess.....
Actually it looks better than Aston

i don't think they look alike, but it's in that vein. i've been saying for a while Cadillac should build a GT car like the Aston, instead of just a 2 door CTS . Maybe Buick will do it, although it won't play in the same exclusive company.

Wow nice. I'd buy.

Perfect

I'm a Buick guy.

That's one sexy car. I had heard rumors of a new Wildcat for years. My salesman at the old Poncho dealership I got my Solstice from was very interested and I'd talk to him about it from time to time. Looks like the idea never really died.

I have read turbo V6, 400 bhp.

Bite your blaspheming tongue and bow at the altar of beauty and torque: 1970 Buick GSX Stage 1. The first Buick X car. 510 lb/ft. Somehow these cars are still largely forgotten.

I see more of the Jag F-Type!

If they make that, with that interior and dash, just like that... that will be my very first Buick; ever. Nice to see GM designers getting past 'trend of the day' styling, and starting to do things that actually work. BEAUTIFUL piece of design here!
