Spy shots of a rumored Buick LaCrosse GS
Today Autoblog.com posted spy photos of a special Buick LaCrosse spotted up in Michigan. This particular LaCrosse looks like any other Buick LaCrosse for sale in Columbia, SC — until you reach the wheels. In place of the normal 18-inch chrome wheels (or 19-inch alloys on a LaCrosse with the Touring Package) are a meaty pair of 20-inch wheels that appear to be borrowed from the European Opel Insignia OPC. The Insignia is known as the Buick Regal in Columbia SC, though all ride on versions of the same Epsilon II global platform underneath. If this entered production, speculation is that it would be dubbed the Buick LaCrosse GS as other Buick performance cars have in years past.
In Europe, the Insignia OPC features a 325-horsepower turbocharged V6 engine. Here in the United States, the top-of-the-line 3.6L V6 in the LaCrosse CXS is rated at 280 horsepower. If more features than the wheels carry over from the Insignia OPC, expect for quite a punch from a sedan that already offers Columbia drivers a great combination of smooth acceleration and superb handling.
