Rumored for several years now, the American automaker is finally bringing the Opel Cascada to the U.S. and selling it under the Buick badge. Making its debut at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show, the Cascada will be the company’s first convertible since the 1991 Reatta and will be available later this year.
