Neoplan Starliner
Posted by JohnnyMints on Tue Jun 12 22:56:49 2012 edf40wrjww2msgDetailB:detailStr fiogf49gjkf0d ...a modern version of the GMC Buffalo? If GMC had kept producing it, would it look something like this? I spotted this beast a few weeks ago in Paris and at first thought it was the most hideous looking thing I ever saw. I pointed it out to the wife and she agreed, then said it looked kind of like a Buffalo (impressive!) After researching it and looking at several pics though, it kinda grew on me... what do you think? The pics are not mine, btw.

They look spectacular (depends on personal taste whether that's in a good or bad way), and according to drivers are really nice to drive, but not very practical to use (limited storage space, quite a few things inconveniently placed, etc).
