I mean, C’mon that’s a Mazda 6 face. I guess if you’re going to steal, steal from the best.
This is the current one:
Posted this only because of how blatantly they ripped off the Mazda 6 face

Why should we care about China-only cars?

They say it will come to the US in 2020. Unless Buick pulls a Ford and discontinues all sedans/wagons

I like the LaCrosse . I’m not seeing the Mazda 6 at all here. I like the 6 as well.

Wait, they still make buicks?

I was just being sn arky. I assume that the LaCrosse is still sold in the US, though I can’t recall seeing one other than at the Auto Show.
Tbh maybe I see them all the time and just don’t notice them unless they’re doing 30 in a 45 zone.

Buick sells more than Acura and Infiniti, which are comparable brands

Really? fuck.
I actually was investigating an injury claim yesterday and got talking to the claimants about their new Buick Envision. They were both over 80.
I guess I am not the target market for Buick. I did actually see a Lacrosse this morning and was like “damn, good looking car...oh its a buick”

That side character line is so weak compared to the previous generation.

Rented this one couple of years back. Barely 2 minutes into driving it I was like ”Yuu pp, this was made for the elderly Midwesterner”... and then I dozed off.

so an impala with different lights and bumpers is what I see.

You’re not in the target market for a Buick unless you look at the Avalon and think that’s too much of a “ kids car".
![]() 11/16/2018 at 11:16 |

Nope I don’t see it either. It looks more like an impala with fancy lights and bumpers. Especially in the rear quarters.

I mean t just the front fascia of course, not the entire car, Duh. Did you see the image caption and my other comment?

maybe now I can score a deal on a leftover La Crosse. I’d love to transfer the daily dutries from the Grand Marquis to a La Crosse

Buick is popular with the Chinese, so it’s no surprise they have a lineup of knockoffs.

I would like to drive a new one with the 300hp V6 and haldex AWD system.
![]() 11/16/2018 at 11:48 |

I have sat in the new one when I went to drive the TourX , I have not driven the Lacrosse but I have driven the new Impala and I assume they drive the same-like a boat . You do get a lot for your money and they had steep discounts as well.

Seems to be decent with the AWD. I mean, it’s still a boat.

Looks better than an Impala

I’m going to say this is a down grade on both ends. the rear MIGHT be an improvement in person.

I mean the design was very inoffensive to begin with, in line with the mission of this vehicle unlike the Avalon . Rear I agree.

yes and I don’t see the similarities you do. The mazda is much more a forward facing lean, with a point to the top ledge of the grill if you look at it from the side. The grille shape is similar but much more straight lined on the mazda, vs. the curved edge lines on the buick. The buick is much more soft pretending to have edges, than the swept blended curves that lead to edged body lines on the front of the Mazda. The devil is in the details for sure here.

Can t believe I feel this way, but the new Buicks actually look quite decent, if not good.

I have had one (loaded) example of LaCrosse and another loaded example of Impala. LaCrosse just fe lt better butt oned up.

How was the Tourx? I saw one in the wild last week and it’s a good looking wagon, IMO...but still can’t decide if an outback or a used XC70 would be a better deal...

I wrote a full review check it out
Very good family car but not for me I’d rather take a used 3 series wagon.
The tourXs have crazy discounts on them though.
