I ❤️ my Buick!!! I bought my 2017 Buick Regal Sport Touring in 2018 with 30,000 miles. It was a rental from Hertz purchased for about a little over $17,500. It’s 2020 and it has now 54,000 miles on it and I have not one issues besides the normal oil change and replaced the tires with the exact ones that it came with from the factory which are highly rated Michelins. It is a greatly build car and a bargain for the price because it wasn’t a popular sold car in America but did well in China.

I just bought one a few months ago. I like it. the heated seats are lacking. I live in a cold place. I do really miss my buick Lucerne. That was an amazing car.

i just bought a used one yesterday.....a 2011 buick regal cxl turbo.....i love it....rides real smooth. what year is the one in this video?

[@socalguy97]

Agreed. I'm 34, and I love my Regal. Truly the nicest car I've ever owned, and I did come from the Audi A4, and then the BMW 3 series I traded for my Regal. No contest. The Regal is the winner. I know that burns some of the import fans here, but sorry, I was a legitimate import owner and I will absolutely buy another Buick. I'm not the least bit disappointed and the overall quality, mechanical and style wise, is amazing.

Well, here it is two years later, and my Buick Regal hasn't been in for service not even one time (oil changes--that's it). Is it better than the TSX? Yep, in my opinion. I too tested the TSX and also owned an A4, and I'm loving the Regal. I'm also not old, unless you consider 34 to be the new "senior citizen" ... and I think the center stack could only be easier to read if they buttons spoke to me. Boy, were you off when you posted your comment, buddy.

Listen Buick... if you want to steal customers from Mercedes benz, Audi, and BMW. You need to either make this an all wheel drive or rearwheel drive. Front wheel drive, just doesn't cut it for enthusiats drivers. Although it is a really nice car.

Just bought the 2012 Buick Regal turbo on Saturday, I must say Buick is doing a great job in targeting the younger demographic. I am in my 20s and love how sporty and fun to drive it is. I always thought Buick was an old mans car, but not anymore. I encourage anyone with a budget of $27k-$30k (give or take) for a car to give the 2012 a look. I test drove everything in the same price range and different years, TSX, Maxima, Accord, 328xi and the Buick didn't disappoint. Just my 2 cents.

@76carmel I'm glad someone has this straight. The people who post ridiculous comments on here are usually the people who don't understand this car's competition.

2011 Buick regal for scrap make offer. These cars have transmission failure in between 50, and 100,000 miles .Warranty replace they will fail with in a year . I heard the trans are built in China for this year.

[@drivinivan]

Also if you have a price range of $22,000 to $25,000 you should drive the Buick Verano. Look for my review also!

[@puremaplesyrup22]

@WildDog117 You can get these for less then 25k. I almost signed at 24,900.

@Scottiesurfer I don't think the regals centre stack is confusing at all! and it's definitly easier to uses than the german's (at least) and why ARE you comparing the kia optima to the regal anyways? well all know the kia will be in the bone yard in 4-6 years so what are you trying to prove? OR did you know that buicks have been proven to be more reliable than most lexus's (if not all) and certainly more relaible than acura's!

[@gmracing15]

Did this guy get is on screen acting lessons from willam shattner? Fuck the similarities are spooky!

[@76carmel]

@pelepihuamo Buick does not compete with Mercedes or BMW with the Regal; it's competition is the Infiniti G25, Audi A4, and Acura TSX. Cadillac is the one that competes with BMW and Mercedes here.

[@Scottiesurfer]

Uhh oh, The Regal is the better car (comparing to TSX) Hmm. Lets see in 10 years, the resale value, how much has been spent on repairs compared to TSX. Shall we pull the Kia Optima Turbo alongside the Regal too and see what happens? And dont start knocking the Optima unless you've driven it. Just sayin'. That regals center stack is confusing and the old guys who still buy Buicks will need a seminar on how to work all those buttons. LOL

Sometimes?!
