2010 Buick LaCrosse/Allure CXS

Tag: Consumers, GMRobert Lamb @ 9:12 am

Many thanks to one of our members that took a few minutes out of their busy day to contribute a U.S. / Canadian Price comparison on the 2010 Buick LaCrosse/Allure CXS.

At today’s exchange rate of 0.9235 the saving  is 12.76% or $6090.42.    At par hard working, smart shopping Canadians can avoid being  “gouged” by 19.38% or $9,251.03 by shopping in the U.S.  It appears to us that the “NEW” GM(Government Motors), is just following along it’s old ways.

In Canada the car is called Allure. In the US they call it LaCrosse.  We imagine they did this to confuse cross-border shoppers.

Despite recent claims by Dougie Porter and his gang at the Bank of Montreal it appears that “Fair” pricing for Canadian Automobile Consumers is but a pipedream.  Is our productivity and standard of living so much less than the Americans that car companies continue to gouge us. 

The Canadian Car Consumer has to wake up!

We also heard that GM is targeting this vehicle for the Chinese Market.
