The Fast Lane Car what are you guys doing? Buick wagon?! Review the new 2018 Mazda 6 what’s the hold up?!
Great review and a very
interesting car ;; no a station wagon
The Fast Lane Car compair this to my 96 Buick Roadmaster wagon collecter series? Remember 96 Buick wagons had a LT1 5.7 and a 3rd row and can tow up to 8,000 pounds
The Fast Lane Car u need to show the young generation what wagons really look like from back in the day
You forgot to mention in the weird that its german made by a french car company
Bought one (loaded) and this guy nails it... fantastic car regardless of the money, although it was a bargain. Sporty, fun, and I traded in a BMW for it.... No regrets at all
How about now? I'm looking at an essence trim now for under 21 let me know 🤣
Do you still have your TourX? How do you like it a few years later?
@@clawlock, we still have the car and it has over 50,000 miles.... one of the best cars we have ever owned...
Hows the ride? Soft or firm? Comparing a 3.6r outback to it
The ride is typical European good handling and firm but not at all uncomfortable. The ride and handling is one of the highlights of the car and ours has 55,000 miles on it including highways and twisties... Very dependable... We should move on and sell it but my wife (who drives the car) does not like anything else as much as the Buick Regal TourX @@Hallowsaw
Wagon > CUV all day!
Suv*
Kazi Akhlak
No. CUV.
alliejr so is this and what you talking about be than my 96 Buick Roadmaster wagon collecter series?and it has a 3rd row and can tow up to 8,000 pounds
My mom also had that car :-)
WHO is the CUV made by
The cladding is all upside. I live in Minnesota where we salt the roads like a McDonald employee salts french fries, much rather have the salt running against plastic cladding than the paint and eventually metal.
I love a station wagon. Come on Buick , drop a twin turbo 6 in this baby.
Buick Grand National Wagon. 🤗
D Fisher yes I totally agree with you on that. make it at least 500 to 550 horse power that should be enough power 4 a low 12 second Quarter mile at 117 mph trap speed.
Hell yeah
Badass
So is this Better than my 96 Buick Roadmaster wagon collecter series
AI3xZJE41 YT how many times are you going to make the same comment?
I'm glad there are new wagon offerings in the sea of cross-overs.
Yes!! That is one good looking wagon! Way to go GM! Let's hope more than nine people will buy this and GM won't immediately discontinue it. The U.S. needs more wagons for people who want the utility but don't need the height/ground clearance. There are so many choices in Europe, and most of them are available with a manual/diesel combination. Great job on the review, Nathan! PS: The catapult hood is a late April Fools joke, right? :D
JCtheCheck aaaaaaand it’s cancelled...
"Let's hopa that GM won't immediately discontinue it"
That aged badly
I work at a Buick/GMC dealership. We have not had a single 2018 Regal TourX in stock...ever. But we do have 2019 Envisions. Smh
Porter McSorley That's sad. I saw the first tour x I've seen in the wild yesterday and just about broke my neck trying to get a picture of it. The envision makes me want to vomit it's hideous
V.Vega I honestly had no idea these things existed until I visited my mother and she got one for a rental while waiting for her new Toyota. I was star struck by it while cocking my head sideways trying to understand why she wouldn’t just get that over the Toyota.
It's so crazy how they don't advertise it at all. I mean, it's a cool looking luxury wagon starting at 29k, i feel like they'd be flying off the lots if people knew they existed
Rumor has is that the TourX will soon come with GM's 9-speed transmission. If it's as good as everyone says it is, the TourX will probably end up being only the second car I've ever purchased new.
The Buick dealer near me (south central PA) has about six on their lot. Seen a few whilst driving around, too.
This is what the original Outback was, but in 2018 now. I love this car. So glad wagons seem to be making a comeback.
Rip TourX
In 2022 I've found myself really interested in wagons and I'm quite disappointed to not find really in viable options outside of volvo, so seeing this is a refreshing pace, I was more companies would invest in vehicles like this. I don't like suvs but would love to have the storage they provide and this checks off all the boxes
Hey Nathan, Great review, and I share your love for wagons. BTW, the "exploding hood" feature allows the TourX to meet government safety regulations and keep the belt line low and stylish. Otherwise, Buick would have to raise the hood by about 2 inches, which makes the front look bloated and shrinks the greenhouse space. Way cool engineering workaround.
I think the car looks good, unfortunately it won't sell. Pretty soon all unique or interesting cars will go extinct because all people want these days are stupid crossovers.
Personally I'm a big fan of electric vehicles. They're the future. The electric motor is simple in design, unaffected by air-fuel ratioes, and has a lot of torque throughout the entire RPM range. I'm just waiting for battery technology to catch up.
True, but wait until gas prices rise again....
@@Mmmyess nah electricity is already way cheaper, just gotta wait for cheaper and better batteries and they will begin to take over
@@ThePokeCzech Electric cars have no soul, I'd never buy one. No stick shift and no sound. I could like without the stick shift, but no sound is a no-no. A car with no exhaust note is demoted from a car to an appliance.
@@hakeemsd70m Cars are just tools/machines, none of them have soul. You're prioritizing emotions over logic.
Personally I wouldn't sacrifice efficiency, power, cost of operation, and reliability for the sake of sound.
Plus you might change your mind if you actually drive a performance electric vehicle. After a while everything else just seems stupid.
I would actually buy this. A turbo v6 and awd would be amazing.
I think that looks cooler than the Volvo... And that's saying a lot
No, Nathan. It's not an adventure vehicle. It's not a crossover, it's not a "utilitarian vehicle". It's an all-wheel-drive wagon so you can drive it... On the Road... year round no matter the weather. It's not an off road vehicle. It doesn't need more ground clearance.. IT'S A WAGON. Stop contributing to the uglyfication of cars. It's just fine. It's a nice, attractive, all-wheel-drive WAGON.
KYoss68 3:52
I want to like this comment 100 times. I have literally never seen a CUV being used in any situation requiring more than 5" of ground clearance.
Come to the Pacific Northwest and see where we take our wagons. Of course they’re overwhelmingly Subaru Outback.
This car could have done what VW couldn’t do: beat the Outback. It’s got more power from a more modern engine, a bit more cargo space and the right price. But that low clearance kills its potential. Even in slightly deeper snow you’ll be stuck with this car. Off road is limited to the gravel you’ll drive for 200 yards to where the trail parking lot is.
George T. And that's fine. This car is not for those people. This car is for people who are willing to trade ground clearance for better driving dynamics. Not everything needs to be off-road capable.
Side note, my front wheel drive car with 5.5 in of ground clearance has never once got stuck in the snow. I live in rural Wisconsin.
Amen. Wagons are the classy alternative to an suv. It's not supposed to be a monster truck. It's supposed to be cool and subtle, just a sedan + more practicality
Leasing a base model, with its huge cargo hold and generous rear seats, seems like a reasonable proposition. #SaveTheWagon
Norm T I’m looking to to the same thing, there’s tons of 2018s left on lots. Do you mind if I ask what trim you got and what you paid?
I see preferred trim on TrueCar at $26k. And they’re doing 0% for 72 months. Hard to pass up. I’m thinking preferred trim with sights and sounds package, and driver convenience package #1
I would choose a station wagon over a cuv or suv. It has good cargo room for me and my family. Sure, it's not perfect, but it´s ok for me
t gvttvvttvtrttvvv worry vv vvrgt tr tr t the tcrr
Agree on the looks, this is vastly better looking than most crossovers. I think only Mazda and Porsche are excepted.
The pedestrian hood is a European thing. Remember, this Buick started life as an Opel. Europe has stringent pedestrian safety standards, which, for example, is why they can’t have the new Corvette ZR1... all the front aero bits would annihilate a pedestrian unfortunate enough to be hit by one. Not mandatory stuff here yet, but please don’t give Congress any ideas. There are far more useful and pressing issues they need to attend to.
Anyway... good review. I am curious to test drive one. I wish it was a 6-cyl instead of the boosted four. Wifey has an Outback 3.6. I love the motor, hate the handling, hate the “image”. This Buick would eliminate the tree-hugging-lefty stereotype that Subarus have in the PacNW, handle dramatically better, and get better mileage. The question is whether I’d be okay with the 4-pot. I really like the smoothness of the 6, and it kinda tries to scream like a Porsche when you whack it open to pass on a 2-lane road (we live in the sticks, so that’s an everyday occurrence). Drove a Volvo with a boosted four, and the motor was unacceptably groany and grumbly for a “luxury-ish” car, utterly inappropriate and uninspiring.
Glad to see more wagon options!
DucFanDan true on all counts except the mileage, the awd version of the tour x and the subaru are almost identical in terms of mpg.
I'd drive that but I can't afford it Great video
Not my type of car, but moms would be idiots to not consider this car instead of a compact crossover.
Claire Kennedy what about quirky dads?
In 1992 my dad announced that he'd ordered a car from the Chevy dealer. Fine. Then he casually mentioned that it was a wagon. I flipped out...told him I would never --- NEVER-EVER -- be seen in that thing. Wagons are for soccer moms, after all. Well, it came in, and after about six months I told him that he did not have my permission to sell it to anyone but me after he was done with it. :) He sold (read "gave") it to me early. I loved that car...slept in the back countless times, went camping with it, mountain biking, hiking, etc. It held all my crap and was a mobile changing room, too. I've been sold on wagons and hatchbacks ever since. (P.S. I'm a guy.)
@@Mmmyess you see a lot of them in europe and they make more sense IMO. Wish that had better gaz mileage though - not impressed vs hybrids cuv now...
Claire consider of changing your boyfriend for better experience
This is a opel right?
Klorex
Opel insignia
Yes, Opel, Vauxhall or Holden depending on which country or GM region you are in.
Yup...and a Holden in Australia.
I have this car with a Vauxhall badge here in the UK
It's Opel/Vauxhall/Holden
I really like this! I work for a GM dealership and I never knew this existed.
I'm still amazed Buick makes cars.
That popping hood is so INNOVATIVE. So happy to see GM innovating!!! With allot of extra money they can make new things like how they did with the tilt and telescoping steering wheel back somewhere around in the 60’s I think? With Cadillac.
FazeTug The reason WHY they have this feature for pedestrians is because it is MANDATED by the EU 🇪🇺.
I've always been a sucker for a wagon. Had a 62 Falcon wagon project car 20 odd years ago ... had an 87 Crown Vic wagon about a decade ago that I STILL miss. Really enjoyed the Dodge Magnum we had as a work vehicle a few years back too. My brother had a 78 Colony Park wagon for a long time too. (Yes, with the 'fuel sipping' 460.) Wagons beat SUVs every day of the week. I hope the SUV trend dies off a bit and the wagons make a comeback. Right now you really don't have many options outside of the upscale/premium cars if you want one.
Nathan this was a Super review. I agree with all the points you made. I love the looks, but my only problem is that the safety items such as the lane warning, auto stop, rear back up warning and braking cost a lot more money and in such a nice car this should be standard. Honda and Toyota have it standard, now Subaru for the 19 Forester and Ascent their "EyeSight" is standard and I'm sure that the 19 Outback will have it standard also. Nathan, I want you to make a review like this one on the new Subaru Ascent. I have seen many other channels doing it in Oregon how come TFL does not have one. I really want an Ascent to replace my great 09 Forester. I would consider this Buick, but my wife does not want a wagon but she likes the Outback go figure.
If you need all those safety items on your vehicle to make you a safe driver. You shouldn’t be driving at all.
I supposed you don't need air bags either?
Nice review. I too like wagons. Thank you!
Retired AF CE so is this Better than my 96 Buick Roadmaster wagon collecter series.and I just redone my hole suspension all new good parts
AI3xZJE41 YT oh I don't know.
I wish they made a 2wd version with no body cladding that would be awesome!
They do here in Europe. It's the Vauxhall/Opel Insignia Estate www.vauxhall.co.uk/cars/insignia/sports-tourer/model-overview.html
@@hazadills that looks so much nicer/refined without that hideous plastic wheel cover - not like you got clearance to off road it... 4wd is must for me, so nice to see it standard here.
The only two things that would help it would be a manual transmission option and if they made a gs option
Love the car. Great styling and price is fair. I can live with the Premium fuel only but having a can of Fix A Flat instead of a spare tire is a deal killer.
Joseph Maschak so is this Better than my 96 Buick Roadmaster wagon collecter series
That thing is badass!!!
You forgot about at the Mercedes E class wagon
Thank you for this because I'm strongly considering a wagon
Hopefully Wagons will be the next big thing.
Yes.
i came here because i saw one of these on the street yesterday for the first time. i did not know that they existed. it's a unique nice looking car. i would probably change the rims to make it more special.
i wonder if this will be another one of those great cars ( like the chevy ss) that are discontinued after a couple of years because no one bought them.....
I came here for the same reason. Saw one on my way to work today. Liked it so much I had to go to Buick's site to find out what it was. They offer a 2020 model, so it hasn't died yet. I'd buy one if I was in the market. Don't think it would fit in our garage though.
I rented this car for a week and fell in love with it
I really enjoyed this review, but dude, there ain't nuthin' crazy about the potentially life-saving pedestrian impact hood release. That's cool as hell! Like you, I am a long-time fan of wagons (and hatchbacks). I'm completely sold on this car but want to see if/when they'll make it with GM's 9-speed transmission. The TourX has relatively little American content, so the more, the better. Keep up the good work, and Cheers from Arvada!
We have one equipped with every option…the TourX is a great car: Super practical, sleek looks with its long & low shape, even stands out from other *wagons* let alone all the CUV/SUVs, loads of rear leg room, beautiful pano sunroof,
*Only* gripes: lack of storage cubbies, no paddle shifters or sport mode, can’t turn off start/stop
Can't turn off what? Keyfob start?
if you buy in Michigan there are dealers selling these as low as $24k
Awesome Steelers hat for a guy living in Broncos country, Nathan.
Amen! we need more wagon. I would love to see more euro wagons like the VW Passat wagon. The hood pedestrian thing is to meet EU regulations
remember in the 2000's where GM made the Pontiac Grand Prix GXP and Chevy Monte Carlo SS, with the transverse-mounted, front-wheel-drive LS4 V8 with over 300hp? GM should take the new LT and do to it what they did to the LS4 so they could make a ~400hp or so wagon with AWD
Cobalt Lukather If Motor Trend's numbers are accurate, that Monte SS with the LS4 was only 0.3 seconds quicker to 60 mph than this Tour X.
Joshua Harazin tire technology has come a long way, as have drivetrain technology. Turbo tuning and traction control makes the most of the power it has at lower speeds whereas the LS4 had less grippy tires and a torquey power curve that fought the traction control system rather than made the best of the grip it had
But what i want is an LT that is the spiritual successor to the LS4, with the Tour-X's AWD, so it doesn't just spin the fronts
Or just use the 410hp LF3 turbo V6 which is already better suited for this platform.
Chevy could easily phase out all it's V8s for turbo I4 and V6 engines that would be "better suited." but they just don't have the character of the V8 layout.
so hush and forget about logical decisions and just let me have my wet dream of an American, V8, four-wheel-drive wagon
So is this Better than my 96 Buick Roadmaster wagon collecter series
Would love to have this car at a lower price without AWD, a naturally aspirated engine, and none of that plastic body cladding. Let me buy it as just a straight up station wagon.
Definitely the most level-headed reviews out there. I would say though that you either miss the point or pretend to miss the point that 99 percent of people who buy _____ Utility Vehicles of any variety (or sport wagons) will never even once take them off road. Now, even living in suburban Detroit, I have to admit that I have only seen ONE of these actually being driven, and it had a manufacturer plate on it!! So I have no clue how their marketing is even working, if there even is any. But I do think it's the 'right car, right time, right price' etc if only they can get it into the heads (and hands) of the right driving audience.
Wow! A Buick that I would actually consider owning?! That is a very good looking car, and much more reasonably priced than I was expecting. And it's a Buick?! They've apparently changed for the better in the past few years. I like it.
LMacNeill if like that one what about my 96 Buick Roadmaster wagon collecter series?and I just redone the hole suspension all new good parts
Great review, keep it up, but why do automobile reviewers obsess with the exhaust pipes? It is a wagon, most wagon owners are going to care less about it. (Actually for a lot of regular car buyers, same story, what I want from a car is fast and smooth acceleration without a lot of noise (better to hear the sound system than the engine laboring)).
Exact same fake exhausts as the Audi SUV and the new Hyundai Santa Fe. Not a single mention in those reviews. Buick takes a bashing by reviewers.
This wagon has easy steering, excellent handling, great acceleration, and crisp brakes!
I'm having a hard time finding one of these in the lower trims. It seems like the Buick dealerships near me are only interested in stocking the top trims.
$8K-$10K difference. I tend not to shop for cars with all the bells and whistles.
Khan Tra, Do a factory order to get the sensible base model.
... But only the top model comes with the good seats. Base/middle trims get crappy seats, no bolstering...why?
Glad to see wagons are making a come back.
Let's hope they are.
I love mine! I highly recommend the Trifecta tune to resolve the sometimes iffieness of the transmission shift points (especially downshifts) and to disable auto stop / start, which does not have a kill button in this car. Flash the computer with that and man, this is a really great little car for the money!
I bought a 2018 leftover September 18. It's a fully loaded Essence in Rijo Red. I get 22 mpg in city and 35 hwy with 91 fuel. I get lots of oohs from people that think it's a MB. Too bad Buick dropped it. A great ride and highway and city car.
Great review. I've always liked station wagons going back to the early 1970's. Owned several then started buying 4X4 SUVs instead mostly for the towing.
Station wagons coming back finally?
I love this car.
Everyone complains that it needs more power. Get it tuned. 2.0l turbos are easily tuned to 300hp 315 tq with no other mods.
I had a 73 Buick Regal wagon. Looks like they added new sheet metal and called it a day.
Congratulations on your choice of the '73 Regal as one of America's premium 'intermediates' of its day.
Our kiwi version of this has a 3.6l caddy V6 and a few more interior additions. Underrated cars I reckon
Couldn't agree more about the interior. I would like to see the big plush Buick style seats.
Actually thinking about buying this in the used market. So basically this buick wagon is cosplaying as a true offroad vehicle yet still somewhat utilitarian...and thats ok. Good info 👍
Fantastic video
Keep up the good work
Great review. I have hatchback grandsport 1.6turbo petrol/gas in UK. Been a great car.
Just bought one MSRP 35,400 paid $25,100 such a great car!!!
How's it been??
@@jdansie Its been a perfect car My wife loves it she's had Volvos & Lexus and this one is comfortable, fast and has
@@VictorDohlemanWeldtoolTech I definitely like to look into one, but I don't know how you got such a screaming deal. I was searching around last night and couldn't find anything remotely like that.
@@jdansie There is a 5K rebate plus dealer cash. You have to make a offer with a dealer that will deal. I gone mine at Simpson Buick GMC in Anaheim Ca. SUV's are the sales star right now so the wagon are not as popular as they should be like in European market.
Is this Opel insignia built in Germany? Ops, I mean Buick Regal.
Small correction: Opel Insignia Estate (Wagon in British lands)
(I can't remember the designation in Germany, but they get more options than US)
@@tonyt7442 former Opel mechanic here, in Germany the wagon is called "ST" or "Sports Tourer"
I sat in one at the Philadelphia Car Show and was massively disappointed. Now, it does look good! However I was expecting it to be the size of the Dodge Magnum (full sized interior) but when I got in I saw it was a smaller-ish mid size interior. Nothing as 6’4” I could sit in comfortably AND have people in the back seat. If they built this off the Lacrosse instead of the Regal I would be in love.
The 1990 Pontiac 6000 AWD S/E had a 3.1 litre V6 and was available as a 3200 lb. station wagon. The similar Buick Century & Olds Cutlass Ciera wagons (just under 3000 lbs because only FWD) carried on till 1996. They had 74 cubic feet of cargo space, and I 100% filled that space for parcel deliveries.
No fancy hood poppers though.
Nice review! I'm looking to replace my 2015 XC70 T6 but don't like the new Volvo wagons. Options are the Jag at $72K or BMW 6 series GT (its wagon-ish) at $71K or drop down to the lower priced wagons of the Outback and now this vehicle. The Golf wagons are too small for my needs with two large dogs and luggage. I need to test drive this vehicle.
What did you end up getting?
I hear the 9 speed is standard next year. I'd be tempted to wait for that
I'm considering this as a new family car
Very reminiscent of the Dodge Magnum. That was a station wagon that was ahead of it's time.
Wish my 2016 Outback was as low as this Buick wagon, looks good ....I'm never going off road.
Bextar636 so is this Better than my 96 Buick Roadmaster wagon collecter series
Tempted on this thing, especially as it seems a great deal could be had.
Any idea if the sales will hold up enough to warrant GM to continue producing it? I'm worried if I buy it, it won't exist in two years...
I just put down a deposit for a CPO ‘18 Preferred trim b/c station wagons = driving experience + utility, but felt uneasy getting a discontinued model. I’m feeling better about it after watching this review.
I like Nathan and Andre as hosts
Fun fact, GM designs the cargo space in most of its cars to hold a set of golf clubs. Even my Fiero back in the day could haul golf clubs.
Nice looking wagon, but it would look much better if they got rid of the cladding on the wheel arches.
I'm 16 and would actually like this car for after High School.
I think that one of the most important things about station wagons is their cargo space. It's a utilitarian vehicle which many families would like to have, and enough cargo space is necessary. I personally liked this one, though I consider it's too low--if we put many things inside and reach the maximum passengers capacity, it will hit the ground.
Edgar Villanueva so is this Better than my 96 Buick Roadmaster wagon collecter series?and it doesn't set low and I have a 3rd row and I can tow up to 8,000 pounds
Styling is killer, I want one except for that motor! Wanna bet it comes with the 310hp GS motor in the future? I'll gamble and wait! Thanks for your review.
Australia already gets the wagon with the V6. If it was going to happen for the US we would have it.
Europe gets a black trim option.
czcams.com/video/efIVX0b5DVM/video.html
There ya go, I like that GSi.
Yo Sam so is this Better than my 96 Buick Roadmaster wagon collecter series
Just ordered mine today. Very excited.
Update? Did you end up getting it? And how's it been?
Hey I like your video, I have a huge suggestion. In your review you should talk about road noise, wind noise, and how soft and comfortable the ride is. I feel that a lot of cars are just very stiff and uncomfortable to drive. I'm 23 years old and I drive a 1995 Lincoln Town Car, I refuse to give it up because I can't find a car as comfortable and smooth as that car. Even all these modern bench seats are very stiff and there's not much padding going on like you don't sink into the seat. If anybody has driven a Lincoln Town Car, please comment and tell me a car that has the comfort of 1.
SirMikeProvolone my 96 Buick Roadmaster wagon collecter series come test drive it I just redone the hole suspension
As a 22 year old I want to lease this. But I hope they maybe bring a N/A engine option with a RS trim level soon too? Also I don’t like that plastic around the wheels. Makes if look higher than it is. We’ll see for the refresh I guess
Whatever happened to the slogan, "Buy It, Lease It, Rent It?" This was one of those episodes. And it's been a long time since the last Nathan "trunk test".
cadsux Ha ha, sorry! We have to evolve with the times.
A very nice car. In the UK there was a version of this called the Vauxhall Sports Tourer - now, sadly, the parent company, FSA, have deleted it. The only option now is the hatchback version called the Grand Sport.
Good
I really like this car but I haven’t been able to find any tow rating. Anybody know what this can tow? Station wagons of old pulled campers and boats with ease!
Wonder if gm is using Saab’s awd system in this car.
Lol 7 inches ground clearance. I took my Outback off-road last weekend, the only mod: Yokohama Geolandar AT tires. The TourX won’t even make it to where the gravel turned to mud.
As a euro wagon guy I never thought I would consider a Buick but I'm legitimately interested on checking one out. To bad they don't make one with a boosted 5 cilynder.
So is this Better than my 96 Buick Roadmaster wagon collecter series?
Really enjoy that guitar music
does it have a history seat?
The Holden Commodore is the same vehicle in Australia... It comes with 3.6 engine, double turbo and AWD as standard
in Australia it’s Commodore, it’s strange for you say interior is not up market as Commodore cross over come in top of range. I do agree seats should be heated/cool. Great to America opinion on the cross over 👍 now that GM sold the factory I wonder how long this product will be around for?
Buick GS wagon with an LS in it pleaseeeeeeee
This car falls victim to another pretty standard design issue in cars today: the center console is WAY too tall and too wide. It looks like you are boxed in completely with no room to move your leg to the right, something that I find important on a longer car ride when putting the car on cruise control. I don't believe designers ever drive these cars, and if they do, they never leave the track. The center consoles need to get much lower by the leg area and step "up" for the arm rest.
Glad I got a 2019 outback. I know this channel hates them albeit but I'll take it.
Better value: VW Sportwagen AWD or this Buick ?
The Buick is much bigger. The base model TourX would be my choice.
The 4x8 goes on the roof 😎
Or in a utility trailer towed behind.
Miss you Nathan.
Wow never thought I’d want to buy a GM, much less a Buick, but I really like this.
