Brown Car Afficionados, Buick has your back. While the 2014 Lacrosse’s updates are either cosmetic or related to safety features, Buick boldly chose brown for the press photos. Because nothing says “would you like to upgrade to Premium Full-Size for just $10 more per day?” like a luxurious mocha-hued Epsilon sedan.

    Brown is nice when it's new or the paint is taken care of. The "Urban Brown" color that Honda debuted a few years back looked great, but typical Honda buyers don't maintain their car with waxes or the paint quality sucks so it looks terrible after 5-6 years.

    I watched "The Campaign" and the part where the guy calls Marty Huggins brown Buick a shit bucket really made me laugh. One of my detailing customers has the exact same car, and she gets it cleaned every year or two. It truely is a shit bucket and I'll be booked next time she asked, let the minimum wage boys at the autospa get that!

  • Lorenzo They won't be sold just in Beverly Hills - there's a Nieman-Marcus in nearly every big city. When they're finally junked, the transfer case will be first to be salvaged, since it'll be unused.
  • Ltcmgm78 Just what we need to do: add more EVs that require a charging station! We own a Volt. We charge at home. We bought the Volt off-lease. We're retired and can do all our daily errands without burning any gasoline. For us this works, but we no longer have a work commute.

  • Michael S6 Nissan seems to be doing well at the low end of the market with their small cars and cuv. Competitiveness evaporates as you move up to larger size cars and suvs.
  • Cprescott As long as they infest their products with CVT's, there is no reason to buy their products. Nissan's execution of CVT's is lackluster on a good day - not dependable and bad in experience of use. The brand has become like Mitsubishi - will sell to anyone with a pulse to get financed.
