LaCrosse GL Concept Refines Buick's Signature Style Metroland Media Carguide Magazine When designers set out to capture the essence of Buick luxury for the LaCrosse GL concept vehicle, they looked to the fine cuisine, heirloom objects and enriching experiences the brand's customers savour. The design study is on display at the L.A. Auto Show through Nov. 17. Buick's color and trim designers worked from a palette of cabernet red, dark cocoa brown and caramel choccachino. They took inspiration from the burnished metal of antique jewellery, ombre patina on vintage guitars and flocked lining of keepsake boxes. For GL's French-stitched premium leather seats, the designers looked to the understated elegance of classic club chairs and contours of windswept sand dunes. And their use of smooth suede for the headliner is designed to invite one's touch like a favourite pair of gloves. LaCrosse GL's cabernet red exterior paint is complemented by brushed and tinted chrome accents on the grille, door handles and deck lid, as well as around the windows, taillights and headlights. Machine-face, satin-finish 20-inch rims fill the wheel wells for a firmly planted appearance. Attention to detail also is evident underfoot, where leather-surged and accentstitched floor mats offer further refinement. Likewise, the storage compartments are flocked like the interior of a jewel box.
