Shoot Tim... A 500 hp Vette... at your fingertips!, well your shoe.LOL. So.. will they put the Vette engine in the Buick if they make it? I would by one, and I will have to someday. LOL. For my first job, which I have, I just need to wait 4 my lisence, I am working at A FERRARI DEARLERSHIP YEAH, I SAID FERRARI AT 16! I can't wait. Anthony
I haven't read every single post but from the looks of this thread it seems that Buick loyalty is slim and none which is disappointing and humiliating. Here is a copy and paste of my comments from another thread: Oh i'll tell them what I think about it alright.... I give the hole idea 2 big thumbs down! :af: I "skimed" thru the other thread from this board on this subject and i'm EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED @ the fact that everyone is jumping on this bandwagon idea without remembering the fact that IT'S NOT A FREAKING BUICK ENGINE, NOR WILL IT BE! Might as well stick a LS1 in it and slap a Buick badge on it like they did with that POS they called a GTO :jd: If they build that POS and Lassiter & the powers that be of the GSCA allowed those cars to participate & the Nationals, not only would I drop out of the GSCA, I would drop out of the entire Buick hobby, sell the only Buick I have left and turn my back on Buicks FOREVER! I'd be ashamed to look my brand X buddies in the eye! I can see it right now, people seeing a 80's GNs and saying "hey there goes 1 of those "older" Chevys called a Buick GNX" :af: I'm going to shut-up now before I really get pissed off! I just wish Buick would die, then I wouldn't have to worry about disgraces such as this.
GM has gone the way of every automobile manufacturer, and they have only "corporate engines" .The engines are all built by the "Powertrain division" :Smarty: o No: :Smarty: o No: :Smarty: ou:
Buick will never have thier "own" engine again..... But a Turbo V6 hmmmm at least the Idea is Buick. I don't care what's running it..... I'd be there to buy one. That car just Looks too Cool. (probably the exact reason we'll never actually see one :af: )
While it would be great to see a new Buick on the block, I have to agree with most that it looks like a holden...sad really. I reckon if their going to try and make the holden look like other GM marques they should put a pair of big wings on the quarters and rebadge it as a caddie eldorado, 59 style! That would make it stand out! On another note do you guys get the v8 holden ute over there??
Just A Reminder Of The Nationals Rules: 5. All cars must be Buick powered. No corporate engines! http://gsnationals.com/gs_nationals_race_rules.htm That RULE had BETTER NOT FREAKIN CHANGE! :af: I dare any organization to amend their rules to fit this new car and call themselves a "Buick-club". Not that there is anything that I can do about it other than sell-out and leave the hobby and GSCA, it's the principle! :Smarty: We still have the "Buick 3800" which is a Buick engine. The dumb@$$es @ Buick could @ least use what they already have instead of disgracing US with this corporate bull$%it. I've already had calls from brand x buddies today about this mess (as it's all over the net) saying...."haha they can't do it with a Buick engine so it's gonna take a Caddy or Chevy engine...aaahhhaaaaa" ou: :spank: I told my buddies, "i'll swtich to Ford and/or Mopar in a heartbeat over this". :af: :ball: :rant: I know what you are saying about the coporate bull.... that's why I wish they'd just KILL BUICK NOW! :TU:
Keep your old Buicks but ..turn your back on GM maybe that's why GM is in hot water now :rant: alot of people didn't buy that corporate/chevy engine B.S. and turn their backs on GM long ago...... :rant: :shock:
floppin GTO AND........ may be thats why the GTO is a FLOP.... :rant: the Poncho boy Don't want a corporate/ chevy powerd GTO either :rant:
