NashtonUnless your windspeed measurement was with some kind of new 'Klms/hr' I call bullshit!

BTW, congrats on the new ride. Enjoy!
Thanks, I am.

Its always interesting to see how a particular brand chooses to 'tune' their product. Nice to hear that GM has a product that's firm on the suspension ... probably due to a little bit of 'German Heritage' from the Delta II platform (developed by Opal); I can recall an old Caprice which did great in the 'quiet floating' category, but ended up suffering for that isolation in the bends.
Until recently, Buicks were made and marketed to the old farts! Nice soft, floaty ride and dead quiet going down the road were things that the group likes. But the Verano is being targetted towards a younger crowd as is most of the Buick line.
And yes, Opel's influence is all around you in the Verano. It really does remind you of German engineering and design with more emphasis on interior tweaks that are of interest to the market here.
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahah!.
I took the Q7 for its first spin to Halifax yesterday.
The weather and road conditions were abysmal. You should have seen the thing go. Simply astonishing. I was going not slower than 120 Klms/hr in anything you can imagine, from slush to ice. Gusts up to 60 klms/hr, which I couldn't feel at *all*.
If you think any NA junk can beat quattro, you're dumber that we thought you were.You know just because you fucking canucks worship the queen doesn't mean you have to buy their overpriced vehicles.
Now shut up and disappear.
