Cafaro went on to explain that the brand [Buick] is undergoing a transformation in order to remain relevant in an ever-changing market. “Buick is kind of going through what Cadillac went through when it reinvented itself,” Cafaro said. “Cadillac said: ‘What we are doing is not working. Our customers are dying off. We have to carve a new image.’ That is where Buick is right now.”

Cafaro went on to say that he felt a coupe would make the kind of statement Buick is looking to make. “…a statement means it is going to be the flagship.” Cafaro added, “A coupe is definitely where you say, ‘I’m back.; ”
