I always associate "Lucerne" with milk.
That's not a good name. As a matter of fact, it's a terrible name.

Better than more alphanumeric though.

Alphanumeric is better than stupid names.

Opposite opinion. I'd take a thousand stupid names over one more alphanumeric.

The lucerne looks exactly like the phaeton from the back, was nismo's point.

It's probably Canadian for "No Go" just knowing how GM likes to name their cars...

Actually that was disproven. They just didn't like the Nova because it sucked.

Dakian, you fool!
He's saying that you hate alphanumeric names but you love the RX-7 and "RX-7" is alphanumeric!
DakianDelomast
Feb 9 2005, 02:38 PM
Yeah but that's just being all stand offish IMO. I mean did I ever say that I loved the RX-7's name?

way to rip off the phaeton...when you are ripping off design ideas from VW (universally known as one of the most conservative designers) you have hit extrem rock bottom! maybe its time for buick to go the same route as Oldsmobile and plymoth...
what would you loose...brand loyalists? how can you be loyal to a brand when your going to die before you buy another car?

Say what you will about Buick being an old fart car... I love my '01 LeSabre Limited. And since I'm 44 and old enough to be 'dad' to some of you I guess I qualify as an old fart.
I was next to a new LaCross in traffic last week. I really liked what I saw much more in person than on the TV spots. I was next to a new STS tonight. It's OK but nothing special. Now the '97 STS...

All I am saying is that the cars that they come out with are not targeted towards young people.
