I must concurr with Kurant... Engineered Failure??? I am not necesarily a GM guy but as far as the Buicks go, My Grandfather was given his company car when he retired; an 91 Le Sabre. The car is admiddetly no looker, but its got 330,000 on the clock an still going.

Now if the demographic that buys Buicks and Pontiacs used just happens to be trailer park trash that neglect oil changes and drive drunk, then failure might occur.

And, as far as the perfomance aspect, Buick did partner with Mclaren ASC to build the GNX, a giant in the international motorsports world...
