Saw my first TourX in the wild today.

Saw 3 sportback on the short drive from office to home.
Should have bought lottery!
 
I was in Vienna Austria on vacation with my wife last fall and spotted this beauty as we exited the train station. I own a Navy Blue '18 and am thinking about having the plastic trim around the wheels removed like this.

Ours is PBM (grey), and we would have been heading toward Nashville from KY.
 
I'm in the Cleveland, Ohio area and spotted this one in the wild last year in a parking lot. It's dressed up in GS badging and has GS style wheels and the plastic wheelwell cladding is removed. Don't know if it was mocked up by Buick for a show and then sold or just an individual enthusiast doing their thing. I waited a little while to see if the owner would show but I never met them.

Would've been great to know if was just cosmetic or also a powertrain/suspension mod...
 
I had a friend text me a photo of a Red TourX in Bay City, MI last Wednesday. Apparently I have freelance spotters operating in the wild on my behalf...
 
Finally saw another smoked pearl TourX today while I was in OUR TourX (it's amazing how often I see them when I'm in my other car, and resisting the urge to wave for no reason apparent to them is very hard, lol). Outside Lidl/TacoBell in Cedar Knolls, NJ. If it's one of you ( @Wlepse ?) thank you for waving back at me, I felt less insane when you realized! lol
 
Haha...I know what you mean...even in the TourX I sometimes feel silly since so many drivers don't even look. But I can't claim to be the one helping your mental health. But glad to know there are more of us around!

I feel the same way too.
Couple of weeks ago, I happen to finally see someone who turned his head and look back at mine.
Both of us are in the same color heading opposite direction.
Meanwhile, most of the other drivers either did not notice, or I feel odd to keep looking at them.

I feel ya. I just have a red one a stare down. I see them frequently (weekly) but have only had one wave
 
I was 30 second off today from getting a trifecta. One Grey tourx headed south in Brandt school road and 20 seconds later a red one behind it pulling into a nursery... So close

Plus yours, makes three!
 
Had mine since March. Around middle May I saw my first (opposite lane of traffic on 80). The next day, saw another driving the opposite direction in a very small town near me. The following day I saw another at my nieces' softball game. My kids and wife did not get excited, nor did they care for me screaming about it for the rest of the day.
 
Saw one on the road today in Philly. They honked as they drove by and I waved. My friends in the car didn't understand the interaction. I tried to explain it but they still didn't get it. There is one two blocks from where I live that's the same color as today's so I'm not sure if this is my third one in the wild or a repeat.
 
I heartily endorse the TourX wave despite in-car puzzlement. The wave is for the TourX brother/sisterhood, not for our bewildered passengers 😎😉🤣.

Repetitive waves to same drivers is also encouraged. So is actual conversation!
 
This is amazing. I just saw my car`s doppelganger today one block from my house. This is the second one this week I saw driving on the road, and makes 4 or 5 I have seen in a 10 minute radius of my house.
 
Got a nice smile from the passenger in a smoked pearl TourX continuing West on Thruway as i exited @ 481 giving them ✌️as they came up on our left flank - watched them tailing us a few cars back for many miles 🧐
