Buick LaCrosse will carry a V8 soon
Tuesday, June 20, 2006 9:30 AM
About this time next year, Buick will roll out a more powerful LaCrosse dubbed Super. The four-door, front-drive midsize sedan will be powered by the same 5.3-liter, 303-hp V8 found in the Chevrolet Impala SS. The Super features a bolder version of the signature Buick grille and a larger, chrome-trimmed rear bumper along with a more luxurious interior. Other upgrades include standard 18-inch alloy wheels, four-wheel ventilated disc brakes and MagneRide suspension. GM says 0 to 60 mph will be less than 6.0 seconds.

^Agreed except on one thing. The plastiwood, it has to be the worst imitation of wood in the industry. Looks closely at the plastwood and you'll find glitter in there.(?) Since when does wood carry glitter in their fibers?

I actually think they look more luxurious than the impala. The 2000+ impala's just don't do it for me anymore

wow, that exhaust is gross. I hope they fix that for the production version, because it looks a bad Monroe job

it kinda looks like they just put all the impala/monte carlo stuff on the regular production car for testing

so im guessing they would redo stuff once its production ready

I was thinking the same thing. They need a revamp like Caddy had. Something to really bring the division around and give it a new 21st century look.

So it will be more powerful then the heavier/more expensive v8 lucerne (278hp?)??

The lacrosse and lucerne are very nice cars.......
