The article currently only mentions that Buick "is an old person's car is a notion that's constantly reinforced by the media". Not to do OR, but I had to rent a ~2000-2002 Buick, and I got the really strong impression that it had the softest suspension of any car I'd ever ridden in (soft suspensions are sort of the antithesis of a high-performance car, making it more difficult to corner or otherwise grip the road). My assumption was that Buick recognizes what its primary market is (older buyers), and that it had responded by providing a more comfortable ride, at the expense of being more precisely maneuverable. Is there any evidence that Buick's perception as an "old person's car" is intentional, and that the car's specs have been shaped around that, and it isn't just based on what their marketing department does, or isn't just based on public perception? --Interiot01:13, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
