Well, IMO I think the Malibu and Impala should be a little differentiated.... They're too similar now... Make it a small car like it was for the last two generations I say....

Aren't they going to discontinue the Impala?? I thought I heard that somewhere.

If the cruze had a turbo V6 like the regal, then Id buy it.
I think they should keep the malibu as a FWD highway cruiser and make the Impala a RWD sport sedan like the G8. Oh wait, they are! LOL

I'm hoping that's because of the financial troubles they had...and that the next generation of cars will start to be a little different from each other... But I agree.

New compact Buick coming for 2012

I don't know if anyone here is a Buick fan. I started appreciating Buick more when the new Lacrosse came out. In fact, I talked my father into buying one instead of a late model used CTS. Brand new, the Lacrosse costs lessed than the used CTS. Seems like Buick is becoming a little more appealing with its new models. Although the cars are attractive, they are really looking too much alike. This new compact looks almost exactly like the new Regal.

I agree...a lot of the new GM cars are looking the same. I'm hoping this is from them being low on cash, and that the next generation of cars will be a little more distinct. I've always been quite a fan of Buick though. Glad to see they're starting to head towards a little more luxury once again.
