Further proof that GM is improving photography!

The all-new Buick LaCrosse has already launched (at most dealerships anyway), but some still have not gotten their first LaCrosse. GM released the below photos a couple weeks ago during the "launch event" for the LaCrosse. I thought I'd go ahead and post them up since everyone seems to enjoy pics.

Me too, and after playing around in a red/tan CXL while having my G8 serviced a couple of weeks back, it was one of the first times I got back in my Aussie interior and felt lacking

Lots of touching, lots of opening & closing things, close up checks of panel fits, etc., what a car. Here's one in the real world, by me and iPhone:

Great shots.

The Insignia and Astra will make nice siblings.

I wonder why they don't have any photos in black? This car looks really elegant in black. It was MADE for black.

Re: Launch: 2010 Buick LaCrosse Photos

Not a fan of the rear seat DVD players. To me thats such a waste and on every car it looks like a tacky after thought. Is looking out the window at scenery not entertainment enough?

Re: Launch: 2010 Buick LaCrosse Photos

Pictures are taken on the EDS tower garage, Lawrence Technological University and what looks to be the Southfield (MI) Library, and what is the last building? I would be intrested to know if anyone knows.

Also, the vehicle looks great!

Not in today's world...

It's important GM keep up with the latest in technology. The rear seat DVD players are a good example of this. Center headliner-mounted DVD players are often criticized for blocking rearward visibility, making rear seatback players a plus.

Re: Launch: 2010 Buick LaCrosse Photos

If there was one luxury car I would buy, this would be it. I love the interior, and the rear kinda reminds me of a Cruze.

Re: Launch: 2010 Buick LaCrosse Photos

With this beauty on the lot, they will have to take a lot off the top to get the last year or so of the Lucernes gone. My local dealership has already sold all of his 2009 LaCrosses.

Re: Launch: 2010 Buick LaCrosse Photos

For the price I rather pay a little more and get a CTS. Totally not worth it.
