Default New guy here with a Buick....hello!

Hello all. First time posting on this board and I hope to gather some good info about these neat cars and provide some friendly banter in return.

I have an '08 LaCrosse Super that I picked up February '09 from a dealer ad posted on Cars.com. It had 80 miles on it at the time and was practically new despite being a "used" car. Full factory warranty was included.

It's Red Jewel Tintcoat with Titanium "Dreamweave" seats and all of the goodies including sunroof and 6-cd changer. I had my heart set on a silver car but the red is growing on me. It's a blast to drive and it turns heads too. Here's a few pics. Enjoy!

They only made it for the one year, correct? What a shame.

Thanks for the warm welcome!

I didn't realize that this car would create so much hoopla. It's just a Buick.
I'll post up some more pics once I get the hang of it.

Regarding production totals, I snagged some numbers from a really cool site called compnine.com. The results are as follows:

2008 LaCrosse Super = 2277 (133 converted to Allure Super for Canada)
2009 LaCrosse Super = 139 (16 converted to Allure Super for Canada)


2009 was an abbreviated run for ALL LaCrosse models as they were only built from September till December of 2008.

That's the site I used, I seen nothing about 2009 LaXes anywhere so I didn't know that part.
