Today was day one having the Buick Lacrosse. Im a blogger and GM approached me asking me if I would like to review and test drive their cars. I was too excited!

Well today the car was delivered and first thing I noticed was that the color was different from what I previously saw at the park. I like the red, but black would have been very sharp. The guy who dropped the car off to me gave me instructions and it was pretty easy to figure everything out at first lol. I did like how you just pushed a button to start the car. You have to put your foot on the break then push button and the car starts! I like that. It has onstar, and rear back up detection which I love so that I dont bump or scratch anything. The radio is satellite and I really enjoyed that!

I had some friends in my building asking me wow what kind of car is that! So I explained and they all started coming over to check it out. Most of my friends were neighbors in the building. The guys loved the color and shape of the car. One of my friends name is Victor and he gave some great comments. He sat behind the wheel and said,This car has a great sound system,just like Rolls Royce and Mercedes”.

He said it had a sporty look,he liked the size of the car,and loved the pass thru in rear of car.He liked the big wheels,and compact style. He also liked how the car prowled lol,They all agreed it had an old school grill and looked like it was would get you some where fast even if it was just sitting there. On the other hand he was concerned with the dashboard. He said for older buyers it may be confusing for them because of all the buttons. Other than that he said,Buick came a long way.

I had an event today and I had to drive into town. The car drove extremely well on the road and I felt like I was floating on water. It took to turns with ease, and I could see out of all the mirrors with no problem. I like the comfort of the seatbelt too, it didnt cut my neck like most do argh! I got alot of stares on the road maybe because of the color but I could tell people liked how the car look,or was it me lol.

We have had bad weather here in Atlanta and the only thing that I would have to say that I didnt like about the car was where they put the windshield wipers. Its on the right hand side which was unusual to me. It started to rain and I could not figure out to use the wipers to save my life. The rain came down really hard and sudden, so I was blinded for a couple of seconds,that made me nervous. The car wipers has delay set up but I couldnt figure out how to turn them on properly. Other than that I really liked driving the car today, I felt very safe driving it.

Stop back tomorrow for day 2 where I show the car to some of my celebs friends!

The other day I was telling you guys about getting approached to drive a Buick Lacrosse. I’ve always wanted to test drive cars because I love to hit the road! I love my own car but it feels good to drive a new set of wheels, every once in a while. When I got approached to test drive the new 2010 Buick Lacrosse for a week, I was so excited!  My hubby was happy too. I will be getting the car this week and able to give my personal opinion on how I thought it drove,how it handles and how stylish it is. Im a mom too, so I know my kids will love zoomin around in a new sporty car and giving their testimonies!

This past weekend I was able to attend the Daisy Festival at Stone Mountain Park. This was my first time going there and we had a great time! GM was there with the Buick cars and I got to see them up close. I met some wonderful employees of the company like Bo Reed and Araba Dowell both execs of GM. I cant wait for it to hit my drive way! They invited me out to promote my blog and tell on lookers about my relationship with the company and how I will be test driving their cars! That is too Pinktastic! Everyday for a week, I will either have pics or video of my daily experiences with the vehicle, so please check back to see what Ive been doing with the car!
