    GM does need a homerun.
    Not sure about this concept, however.

    Looks like a bit of the new Camaro showcar with those new Lexus rocker trim pieces.

    GM wouldn't know a good-looking car if it parked on Rick Wagoner's front lawn.

    looks like a giant hair clipper.

    a pretty good looking hair clipper though.

    The backside is horrible!

    I'd rather take the money and buy a 1965 Riviera. Now that is a car!

    I think its terrible, and too radical to make anything of it into production let alone for Buick buyers. Therefore a waste of time and money.

    No.

    Position and teeth of grille, conflicts with the rest of the car's design, to me.

    They are trying to put a phantom Harley Earl, touch in the design of the grille.

    Good design otherwise. The grille needs more work. :)

    Looking at the Buick and the other GM concepts they are showing in China, I just have to wonder why they are showing the interesting stuff in China, instead of here. If GM were to build these cars for the US market, you would have to believe that they were awake, instead of the design coma they seem to be in. I can't think of one GM product that is beautiful or interesting. Buick, especially needs a car that is a winner, because they are the next to go under, in my opinion.
