Thanks!!!!
Where’s the CX with cloth?
Leather seats get too hot and sticky on my bum!
I hope it never comes! Buick should be about luxury… not luxury as an option.
And it’s time already to do away with the CX-CXL-CXS trim levels. It should simply be: 2012 Buick Regal. Well equipped right out of the gate, with several option packages such as moonroof, AWD, navigation. No other luxury automaker has “Trim levels” the way Buick does — and that’s a disadvantage, in my opinion.
