Philippe Racicot Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Look at this different Buick... It looks like a RWD car, 255HP V6 on the GS. http://royaum.buick.com.cn/home.aspx http://www.buick.com.cn/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave@Moon Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Those links aren't working. Here's a link to a good set of pictures and a discussion on a different forum. Personally I think it would've been the perfect 1991 Roadmaster, and exactly what would kill off GM forever if introduced here now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philippe Racicot Posted February 2, 2005 Author Share Posted February 2, 2005 The Chinese Buick website seems to have problems, the attachments worked yesterday but the site was very very slow... This car has strange styling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest my3buicks Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Well, at the risk of being persecuted for giving a thumbs up and being ridiculed for giving my opinion on it, I give it a thumbs up. I like the overal look of the car except for maybe the backend. It looks classy - I am sure if it had a Lexus name on it it would be the best thing since sliced bread. I see that it is a V6, that would be fine for the regualr version, but an V8 would be a must for the "ultra" or "Limited". I find the styling very clean, not trendy. Will it be the next big Buick in the US - probably not - would I like to drive it, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philippe Racicot Posted February 3, 2005 Author Share Posted February 3, 2005 I don't like too much how it looks but I like the fact that it has the 5L40E transmission, which means it's a rear wheel drive car! I also like to see that it's available in a GS version but I guess that GS doesn't mean Gran Sport in this case, probably more something like Grand Salon!

Rawja Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 I believe the car in question is a re-badged Holden Caprice.Link:http://www.holden.com.au/www-holden/action/modeloverview?modelid=8000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philippe Racicot Posted February 8, 2005 Author Share Posted February 8, 2005 You are right, that explains why it doesn't look like a Buick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
