i don't think it looks that bad, and at first glance, seems like a practical vehicle instead of the "behemoths" that seem to litter our roads...however, aside from 18" wheels (which means expensive tire replacement) and a "prettier interior", it offers very little over our ET, which offers considerably more space...pricing wasn't mentioned (as it likely hasn't been finalized yet), but as it's a Buick, expect it to be $34,995, but then some special "Employee Pricing" markdown to $28,995...hmmm.
