I posted this a few months ago.
I like the car and think that it has potential to spawn a GN, T Type or GNX version in the future.

 

I would love to see a new grand national, they even had a gnx showcar made out of my style regal.

I would have loved to see that in production.

 

I think Audi and VW have something to worry about.
Its a good looking car. Good for Buick.

 

outside its mehh inside looks really nice.

 

We have these things driving around since last year (I guess) as Opel Insignias and I like the looks and gadgets they come with....even though I first thought it's another facelift Mazda 6 when I first saw it lol

there's a wide engine range, over here most of them are Diesel powered.

you can get the car either with 4 different gas or 3 different Diesel engines, all of them got 6-speed transmissions, all of them are FWD except for the 2,8 liter Turbo and the 2 liter CDTI Twin-Turbodiesel because they got AWD.

a 2,9 liter V6 CDTI Turbodiesel with 550 Nm torque and 260 hp was planned but was being put on hold.


Top models are the OPC Versions with 2,8 liter V6 Turbo engines, 239 kilowatts (321 hp) and 435 newton metres (321 ft·lbf) and AWD, electronic LSD and adaptive dampers

and you get all of them as wagons too. It's a big leap for the Opel brand because you won't get that much technology for that money anywhere else...and I don't think a Buick batch is going to make the car any worse, it's going to be exported from Germany

 

We get stuck with a turbo 4 which isnt to bad, but a turbo V-6 wouldnt have better suited it.

 

Except for the fact I have a turbo 5 cylinder and much better brakes and suspension, nice to see buick catching up with where Volvo was almost a decade ago, lol.

As others have said though, not bad for a buick family sedan.

 

Like everyone else has said, should be a rwd turbo v6 with legendary suspension like the t type/gn/gnx. They had it right 23 years ago.. should have never gone fwd.

 

Don't remind me about how bad it is to have fwd, with the torque I make with barely anything done it's next to impossible to get traction. The actual production regal looks a tad different on the front end also and its not even called the regal gs, just a regal cxl.

slow but very nice

 

It seems kinda cool, but one big problem...its much heavier than it looks...3600 Lbs. It will basically perform like a Cobalt SS with 4 people in it.
