At present, the widely recognized Buick enterprise is undergoing a dramatic change, which is aimed in remodeling itself from being a steward of the typical yet noiseless sedans to a manufacturer and engineer of cars that are near luxury but is still cost-efficient and mass friendly.

In a post recession economy GM believes that the answer for those in search of a new vehicle is Buick. Buick believes that buyers who made it out of the recession OK, but will still be cautious of their spending and not looking to attract too much attention will look to the Buick line of vehicles for a luxury without the giant price tag.

This appeal brought a 52% increase in sales to Buick last year, with hopes that looking back next year, that percentage will be even greater with the introduction of their new premium compact sedan the Verano.

The Verano is a front wheel drive sedan compared to other small luxury vehicles that are rear wheel drive and place their emphasis on handling and speed. The Verano places its strength in its smooth, quiet ride.

2012 Regal GS Dominates At The Nevada Road Rally

At the Silver State Classic this weekend, Buick whipped out a 2012 Buick Regal GS. In lesser words, they dominated. They may not put out cars for racing as well as Chevrolet or Ferrari or Porsche, but this car was just as stunning as could be. When it was all said and done they won first prize.

This road rally is a high-speed achieving 90-mile stretch of Nevada State Highway 318, and ends roughly 120 miles north of Las Vegas. The drivers must maintain a average speed which is set by the officials. No matter what the terrain gave them, and no matter how sharp a curve was.

Watch Out, Buick's Coming!



Watch out, automakers, there is a new sheriff in town.  One of GM's brands is becoming the hottest name in the American car market today.  Buick is quickly winning over customer support with their brand overhaul and marketing strategies.

Take note, Ford, Dodge, Honda, and Toyota, because Buick has been taking over 40% of its sales from consumers who used to be part of other manufacturers' customer bases, and there is a good chance that they have taken customers right out from under your nose.

After the days of the legendary Skylark and Grand National, Buick went on the back-burner as its more publicized big brother Chevrolet and competitors Chrysler and Ford jockeyed for position of highest selling brand in America.  Nissan, Honda, Mitsubishi, and Toyota's arrivals in the states from the Land of the Rising Sun only served to cause Buick to become even more neglected by the American consumer.
