@C6Raptor Other automotive forums? GM Authority was the first to report that GM was tin the process of trademarking these nameplates:

In addition, here’s the news of the rumor you’re referring to specifically:

As far as the reality of these cars coming, I personally think it would not help Buick in the least. These cars, along with their nameplates, were great when they were around; their time has come and gone. Today, Buick is headed in an entirely different direction and I don’t see a point in trying to rekindle the past in the face of an entirely different customer base.
We’ll see…
