2008 Buick Lucerne Super

Like the Buick LaCrosse, the Lucerne will also be offered in a Super model. It reportedly is getting some minor exterior and interior changes plus the Caddy's performance DTS engine which makes 292 horsepower, 17 more than the current CXS. It makes its debut at the NYIAS next month.

but still, how "Super" is it that the "Flagship" gets a 4.6L 292 horse engine while the LaCrosse gets a 5.3L DOD 300 horse engine? Marketing will be key, and I wonder how Buick will pull it off?

I think the new grill and interior upgrades look much better on the LaCrosse than the Lucerne. The Lacrosse Super's 5.3 V8 was long overdue.

It also gets BLISS and Lane Departure warning from the STS

That actually would be a great deal for a Lucerne Super.
