I am conducting a survey for a class; this is entirely fictitious (although I’d be very excited if it weren’t!). I am assuming the role of a marketing/design position with Buick whose purpose is to jump start Buick’s sales with a high performance concept…possibly based on an original concept we all know and love here. Imagine an all aluminum turbocharged v6, and styling very similar to the 87 Gn. Please take the time and answer these very quick questions…I am interested to see what you all have to say, and it would help me a great deal!!
1. How would you rate Buick’s products from the last 5 years?
1-10
2. Would you like to see more high performance concepts from Buick?
Yes/No
3. Would a return or redesign of any previous high performance Buicks of the past interest you?
Yes/No
4. Do you believe GM’s Buick division to be in financial peril?
Yes/No
5. If so, would any affordable high performance concepts bring them back into the light, or should they stick with luxury style sedans?
6. With all the “rumors” of a redesigned GNX floating around, do you feel Buick could reproduce anything close to the performance for the same value?
Yes/No
7. Could a potential high performance concept from Buick compete with any current designs that may come to mind? (i.e. GTO, Mustang, or Corvette)
8. Would the hot rod culture and/or aftermarket for performance parts catch on to another “hot rod” from Buick? Yes/No
9. How likely would you be to purchase a newly designed GNX, or Grand National?
Very Likely, Maybe, No…Not really
10. How important would it be to you as a buyer to retain the original aspects of the 86-87 grand nationals such as turbo charging, intercooler, or an automatic transmission?
