Yes, It’s a Buick
SEMA-tuned Lucerne turns heads in Manhattan

Maneuvering the VIP-style custom Buick Lucerne westward across Manhattan’s 34th Street, we’re grateful for crawling traffic. The agonizingly slow pace keeps the lowered car from scraping on obnoxious areas of pavement and gives passersby the chance to gawk. We’re soon adept at lip-reading “What kind of car is that?” as tourists, shoppers, street hawkers and other motorists glimpse the sleek, flowing black shape, accented by large chrome wheels, chrome tailpipes and fender ports.
A blacked-out Mercury Marauder crawls by from the opposite direction, the driver saluting us with a rev of his pipes in neutral. Two 20-somethings in a lowered Honda Civic with a bean-can muffler tell us, “That is way cool. It’s really smooth-looking. We want one.” They want a Buick?
