These are just excellent.

Hands down my favorite car to do a pre-delivery inspection on. It’s just... nice. Silky smooth V6, excellently composed chassis, beautiful high quality interior. Plus they just look great.

I’ve done a base model and an Essence which is I think one step above base and both were lovely. I can’t wait to do a top trim model.

Looks like a Buick logo. It’s not a rebadged Opel, so it’s bigger than the Insignia/Regal. That’s all I’ve got.

Does it come from...?

Michigan.

Though it’s built in China too for their market.

It looks terrific. I just hope they eventually give us one with a really punchy engine (which I know would be a TTV6).

I can only imagine what that would be like. Even flooring it in with the naturally aspirated V6 pushes you back into the seat and induces lots of giggles.

I was configuring this at work today.

TBH as much as I love the SS, I would much rather have that drivetrain in an Impala LTZ or this.

I dig these. I dig them very much.

If these were RWD, oh boy. I’d do a many bad things to obtain one.

I dig them enough to want to buy a lease return in a couple years.

I don’t like any of the Buicks from a driving POV. I work at a Buick bealer and thus I have been behind the wheel of most of their models. I can’t get the seat low enough or the steering wheel high enough to see the gauges entirely through the wheel opening without part of them being blocked. It’s just a sad fact. Another reason why people should do long test drives.

That’s interesting. I’m 6'4" and can get plenty comfortable and have everything in view even in something as small as an Encore.

Odd. I am 6'2" and can’t. Maybe it is down to leg to torso length differences and preferences in seating.

Playing that video at any altered speed is pure joy/abject terror.
