While I can see the inlfuence from Buick, I also see a strong influence from BMW, particularly with the GTA:SA version of the Sentinel.  Particularly, it reminds me of a 7-series, e.g. a 735 or 740, with the XS possibly being an upgrade to a 750iL or something similar...what does everyone think?  This is particularly evident in the grille: note how it slopes back toward the car as you go from hood to front bumper, just as BMW grilles used to back in the late 80s and early 90s.

Sentinel design influences

While I can see the inlfuence from Buick, I also see a strong influence from BMW, particularly with the GTA:SA version of the Sentinel. It reminds me of a 7-series, e.g. a 735 or 740, with the XS possibly being an upgrade to a 750iL or something similar...what does everyone think? This is particularly evident in the grille: note how it slopes back toward the car as you go from hood to front bumper, just as BMW grilles used to back in the late 80s and early 90s.
