2010 Buick LaCrosse Breaks Cover

buick_lacrosse.jpg

Brenda Priddy’s team of spy shooters comes through with another set of crystal-clear images of a future Buick.

This 2010 Buick LaCrosse shows some significant changes up front with an all-new grille and a slightly more aggressive front fascia. The lower portion of the doors and rockers now have a bit more panache than the 2008 model, but still look conservative enough to keep Buick’s core supporters happy.

The 2010 Buick LaCrosse will ride on the new global epsilon II platform for front-drive vehicles and carries a code name of GMX353. Production is expected to begin at General Motors' Fairfax assembly plant in February of 2009 and vehicles should arrive at dealerships shortly thereafter. Annual production should be between 65,000 and 75,000 units.

2010 Buick LaCrosse!!

These are the newest pictures of the 2010 Buick LaCrosse and like before - General Motors had two security guards for round-the-clock coverage in a public parking areas. When the engineers left for a break, thick car covers with huge locks were placed on the camouflaged prototypes and the security folks sprung to action, intimidating even the most innocent pedestrians with their watchful eyes.

Codenamed GMX353, this second generation LaCrosse will be riding on the new (global) front-wheel-drive Epsilon II platform. It will be the first car in the United States to use this architecture.

Production is expected to start at the Fairfax facility in February of 2009, reaching dealerships shortly afterwards as a 2010 model. Annual production numbers in the 65-75K range are expected.
