Whatever sweetheart. GM angered a lot of people when they dumped Pontiac and lost a lot of potential customers including me. You just don't throw away all that heritage - GTO, Catalina, Bonneville, etc.- like that. GM didn't even have the decency to give Pontiac a proper send off like they did with the Final 500 series for Oldsmobile.
@liddlebopeep Dont take it the wrong way, i have owned a 6000 and a bonneville and they were great cars. Pontiac in its hay day was great and profitable. But with mismanagement it lost all its potential. Its always a shame when a brand gets dropped but really it couldn't have gotten better than it already had. If you want a Pontiac go look in a used car lot somewhere. I think of this as putting it out of its misery.
Hey commerical guy it's not a "Buick" either. It's a rebadged Opel! Buick makes absolutely no sense in the GM hierarchy today. GM doesn't need two luxury brands (Buick and Cadillac), they need something sporty - PONTIAC - to slot inbetween mass-market Chevrolet and upscale Cadillac.
@liddlebopeep Hahaha, do you know what your talking about? Really its not a re-badged Opel. The only thing that is related is GM GLOBAL epsilon 2 platform. Global is the key word here, it shared the same platform as a crap load of other Gm global companies. So in your case the Sabb 9-5 is a re-badged Opel along with; Chevrolet Malibu, impala, Cadillac xts, Saturn aura, pontiac g6, Fiat corma, Holden Camadore. But no, NONE of these are re-badged Opels! Your stupid idiotic remarks make no sense.
@liddlebopeep Oh and to your Pontiac comment. Pontiac has been a dieing brand from mid 90's. Nothing near sporty. Buick- Will compete with luxury companies such as Lexus, Acura, and Lincoln. Cadillac on the other hand will compete against sport luxury brands like BMW, Mercedes Benz, ect. Chevy being the mainstream brand and GMC the higher truck brand. . Pontiac had no competitors but other GM brands. So really this is the best configuration of brands GM has that dont compete against each other.
i saw this thing parked and it looked absolutely stunning and handsome. way better than what you see in the pics. the outside looked way more sophisticated than let's say a BMW 5-series

hahah I could tell right away its a cheap Government Motors car made with welfare money. No wonder they are a huge failure. They try to copy other brands and make a crappy uglier version that is completely unreliable.
Anyone know what the music is in the newest (Feb 2010) Lacrosse commercial (called "Push")? For the first half you can't hear it then it kicks in at the end- poppy music with a girl singing (echo effect on voice) and guitar lead hook into fade out.
Catchy little tidbit, I can't find band credit listed anywhere. Pretty rotten for them after doing all that work...
Does anyone know the name of the dark-haired actor in the foreground with the shoulder strap bag? Somewhere around 0:07? He's checking his phone, and then he looks up, etc. He looks familiar somehow...

This car makes me want to buy GM again. When the company went bankrupt, I really started to doubt I'd ever buy a GM vehicle, but the 2010 LaCrosse might put my doubts to rest. Will definintely consider this car when I'm in the market.
Traded my Acura in on one of these 2010 LaCrosses. Was gonna buy a Lexus but I figured, this car is easily superior, and I'll save $4000. Don't need to impress friends with the Lexus badge.
it makes me happpy to see the american car companies(excluding chrysler) building and coming out with inovative and fresh new models and im sure the new lacross will be a good seller. lets hope GM and Ford keep up the good work
Haha me too Chrysler is shit, this isn't. This is a beautiful car, all of the Buicks are. I especially love how Chrysler said they're going to outbeat Cadillac in luxury.
yeah i heard that to and when i heard it i was like so your going to bring fiats over hear and call them chryslers. because that is all i've been reading on motortrend, automobile and other sites. and the only "authentic" chryslers it seems will be the upcoming grandcherokee and dont nobody no when its coming out, the new 300 and charger. and thats it
Yeah really, I mean I own an 83 fiat, and it's nice lol, but the new fiats of today aren't going to save Chrysler, and there is no way! They will ever be Cadillac level, probably not even Buick. Maybe they should compete with wannabe luxury brands like Hyundai.
Because it has never been and then all the sudden last year Hyundai decided to introduce the Genesis, and call it a luxury sedan, which it is. But that's it.
We saw this commercial being filmed live on the streets of Chicago. The production folks allowed us to watch as long as we did not take pictures with flash. My family and I were all standing across from the intersection. We went up to the car afterwards and no one was in it--it was running, though. Very sharp! The actors and actresses in the commercial were all tall, fit and tan! Way to go, Buick and Leo Burnett!
this is great! this shows that Buick is making good cars again, like with the Wildcat concept and the GNX National. Keep up the good work Buick! The new Lacrosse is my dream car!
Haha go Buick! I love their new cars, and the only reason why any dumbass woundn't is because they say, "Oh it's a Buick." I have an Enclave, and love it, and the new lacrosse is like the sedan version haha, and love it even more.
