another subaru tribeca? Aka ugly as sin
Have a read.
Wonder if these models will be offered in Australia at launch.
Seems very good business sense to offer a large sedan and a 4WD in the line up.

Lose the Buick styling (i.e. excess chromage, particularly those wheels!), and the 4wd will look fairly ordinary - it could have an opel style face put on relatively easily. Opel have a long history of borrowing 4WD designs and doing reasonably well out of them, so this will probably be the proverbial "useful addition to the lineup".
Not sure on the LaCrosse. Somehow looks like a big Epica with shiny teeth. It will be interesting to see what Opel does with it. (Anyone know if it's FF or FR, and what the platform history is?)
That could scupper the entire thing though.The General could also take advantage of its global footprint by building the Opel version of the LaCrosse or Enclave in the U.S. or even China, where labor is cheaper than in Germany.
I have only one thing to say to that: "Opel Sintra". GM: You have tried that before - and it didn't work.
Hmmm, looks very Hyundi-ish and Kia-ish, not that there's anything wrong with that
