It is built off of the same platform (Alpha) as the Camaro and Cadillac ATS / CTS.

Here in Oz this car is being touted as the new Monaro, see here:
It?s a new Holden Monaro, but not as we know it
You Yanks got the last Monaro for a while back in the mid 2000s, it was badged as a Pontiac GTO.

That's a great looking concept car. It looks alot like Hyundai Genesis coupe. GM won't build it. They just have never sold many two seaters. I have been a Buick fan and owned several early Rivieras for many years. Rivs were great, but they were always too big. At least you could fit a couple of adults in the back seats.

Buick has designed some beautiful looking cars that started with the 2008 Enclave and was followed by the very handsome LaCrosse. This design seems more in the XK/XKR mold as it's a 2+2 design (with the same worthless back seats designed for people without legs or pets) and larger than the F-type. It reminds me a bit of the Honda Accord 2 door but more graceful. As a 2008 Enclave owner, I can only say, heed the saying "Never buy a first year model, EVER!"

I think this concept represents the continuation of a long time Buick tradition of 2 door GT style personal luxury cars that have been previously called the Riviera since the early '60s. The Riviera always represented Buick's most advanced design features and certainly represented some bold and extraordinary automobiles. I would assume that this design originated in China as do the other Buick models, but I think it's following a very long tradition of Buick personal luxury/GT cars.
