It will also get customers who want some performance and want a "cheap" 32V V8... It will take a few years but once/if the Northstar dies this car will KILL Buick, if they plop that engine in a coupe it will KILL Pontiac and could even wound the new Camaro.
The real victim here will be a Cadillac Division without a 32V V8... or potentially ANY V8
I remember going to a car show almost 20 years ago looking a Lexus and Infinity and thinking who would spend that kinda coin for a POS Japanese car... Unlike Bob and Rick, I learn from my mistakes... This time I'm scared... very scared, I hope someone inside GM is scared too.
