This car must be seen to be appreciated! BUICK FOR 1960 The
1960 Buick launched a new decade in design innovation as Americans sought to
identify success and prosperity with bold automotive statements cast in
brilliant colors and remarkable shapes. Perhaps the finest example came from General
Motors’ linear styling efforts using innovative driver controls and time-tested
V8 power. Introduced in 1959 together with Buick's “Jet-Age” look, 1960 marked the
second year of the “Four Fin” Buick characterized by deeply sculpted sides and
B-52 inspired “Twin Jet-Pod nacelle headlamps” neatly tucked under the forward
fin eye-brows. Totally
new for 1960, however, was the innovative “Jet Command Instrument Panel.” This
ingenious design so impressed Harley Earl that he craved exposing it to other designers.
Earl simply gave the Buick stylists a day off while marching the other design chiefs
through the Buick studio! The highly innovative concept included “Mirro-Magic”
technology that projected instrument readings to the driver through an actual
mirror. The unique panel also included a gun-sight shift indicator finished off
with “barber pole” aircraft inspired heater controls. Under the hood is a 364 “Wildcat 385” “Nail head V8,” among the maker’s most dependable mills delivering smooth effortless power through the dependable Turbine Drive (Dynaflow) transmission.

GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories
Wed, 06 Feb 2013As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.
Jay Leno recaps Pebble Beach
Wed, Sep 30 2015Each year at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance the picturesque, ocean-side setting of the golf course becomes a parking lot for a vast array of multi-million dollar vehicles. However, if you missed the posh event this year, then Jay Leno has you covered yet again. For a nearly hour-long installment of Jay Leno's Garage, the comedian has dumped his denim in favor of a suit to take viewers on an insider tour of the lavish gathering. He interviewed some of the most talented designers in the auto industry, too. Leno starts off checking out a few beautiful classics by the shore, but things really get interesting for his stroll down the Concept Car Lawn for a scoop on the vehicles of tomorrow. Ed Welburn tells Leno all about the Buick Avenir, and Shiro Nakamura offers a tour of the Infiniti Q60. Plus, there are detailed looks at the Lincoln Continental, Hyundai Vision G Coupe, and Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6.

GM mulling Chevy Cruze hatchback for US, Buick 'Panamera' among other new models
Fri, 08 Nov 2013We've spoken at length previously about the fallacy of poor hatchback sales in the US, and with the runaway success of its Chevrolet Cruze sedan, it's somewhat unsurprising to hear that General Motors is rethinking its decision not to sell an overseas five-door variant in North America as it looks to plug a number of holes in its lineup. GM North American President Mark Reuss admitted during a media luncheon this week that not offering the model "... was a pre-bankruptcy planning mistake," says Forbes. With the next-generation model already well-along in development, it's likely that the current Cruze hatch (shown above) won't see US dealers.
Reuss admits not offering the model "was a pre-bankruptcy planning mistake"
In what must have been a far-reaching conversation, Reuss hinted at a number of new products for many GM brands, including "a much more beautiful Panamera" range-topper for Buick (which sounds a bit like the line of reasoning the TriShield brand has been pursuing with its Riviera concepts) and a "Ford Transit Connect-fighter" to supplant the recently announced badge-engineered Chevy City Express from Nissan.
