Saw this in the Business section of the Chicago Tribune 4/14/04:
To welcome the Buick Velite concept convertible designed to take on the Japanese in the luxury segment begining in 2007, General Motors held a dinner and served sushi.
GM said Velite, which will take the place of the Park Avenue, was named for "an elite class of quick moving soldiers in Napolean's army". GM did not, however, say whether, in keeping with the Napolean theme, a future vehicle would be named Waterloo.
---------------------------------------------
Looks like I got two more years to make up my mine whether I want to buy the Park Avenue or not.
