New Feature – EasyRide of the Day – Buick Concept

Friday, February 6th, 2009

With all the clips and pictures around the web I’ve saved up in my bookmarks folder, I’ve decided that it’s time to get some of these onto the EasyAutoSales blog and hopefully entertain some of the audience more than some of my posts (which have been for the most part, serious due to the current state of the auto industry and economy as a whole). It’s called “EasyRides” and I hope everyone enjoys it!

As such, I’m starting out with a concept drawing of a Buick Lucern:

Buick has been known as a pretty stodgy brand in recent history. However, with recent effots via Tiger Woods spokesmanship (recently stopped due to cost) and designs that are more 21st century AD than 21st century BC. The above is a decent rendition of a modern “pimped out” Buick. It’s no 2010 Buick LaCross, but it’s forwards movement!

Tell me what you think about Buick in the forums: EasyRides – Buick Concept

Retro Car of the Day – Toyota RV2 Concept

Thanks to Autoblog for this one…

If the Pontiac Aztek came from the Toyota RV2, that must mean the RV2 must have come from my 2nd grade LEGO experiments becuase that’s the last time I saw some ICBM doors on a car that has the front of a Lamborghini and opens into a camper. This is one of the weirdest concept cars I’ve personally ever seen. From the lime green that we expect form a Porsche race car to the boat-like rear end, Toyota was making a foray into Frankencars. It does make you wonder though: If this car some how made it to production, would Toyota still be the powerhouse we see today, or would if have marked the beginning of Japan’s “Carpocolypse”?
