It's a decent looking car but I did think that Buick was going to target a younger market than the 60 plus group; yet that story says that is this car's target market. Course maybe for Buick the 60 year old group is the "youth market"!!! Seriously, looks decent to me; but the truth will lie in the driving dynamics.

Unfortunately for me, the name Lucerne reminds me of milk and butter.  :P

I have seen this car in that actual colour and it is a very impressive looking car indeed. Actually a good looking larger vehicle with more then enough room for 5 people comfortably. It belongs to a friend of mine who is only 50 years old. He likes it a lot but hasen't gone very far with it yet as he's only had it 3 weeks now. He wants to put some more milage on it before he takes it on a long trip. He says he feels very comfortable driving it as he is 6'3" tall and has no trouble finding a comfort spot.  :)

Meh....

Nissan Altima looking front, and my GOD, every car on the road seems to have that tail light design nowadays. I'm sure it's a nice cushy luxury cruiser. Not really my cup of tea. Ask me again when i'm 70  ;)

Well, based on the Caddy DTS and at a base of only $30,995, it makes the Allure with a much smaller interior seem somewhat overpriced when you add the trim and options up.

Large interior, handsome looks (not so standout as the front is generic and the rear is very VW Phaeton, but it's large and unoffensive), good price. Not a bad combo. Magnetic Ride Control is amazing as well.

I laughed at this one too.  Hey the V8 has two chrome tail pipes to choose from too!  :)
