2010 Buick to face-off against Mercedes CLS?

Starting out above standard LaCrosse CXS territory, the Wildcat RWD sedan is priced competitively, coming at around $44-50k. Positioned as a Buick alternative to the Lexus GS and aimed toward young professionals and businessmen, the Zeta based RWD Wildcat will be a Buick ''want'' vehicle, the sportiest in the sedan lineup. Inside and out, the styling of the Wildcat sedan copies cues from the successful Velite concept car, first shown in 2004. The interior of the Wildcat possesses subtle retro cues, like a retro-futuristic steering wheel, chromed vents and round instrument binnacle showcased in the Wildcat Gran Sport (shown below). Satin nickel trim abounds, and only a few sparse, yet ideally placed, pieces of wood round off the look of freshness and modern minimalist style inherent in the car's design. A favorite of enthusiasts and professionals alike, the Wildcat is a Buick like no other, a uniquely placed piece of automotive perfection, and the image leader of the sedan lineup.

It will probably be built on 1980s Buick Century running gear with maybe a 1960s Buick engine.

Sounds like both of the previous posts need to do one thing: Drive a new Buick and be surprised. Of course, if the whine of an underpowered yet overpriced Toyota or Honda is what gets you going, then definitely don't drive a neck-snapping Buick.
