    I got my Regal (turbo) about 6 months ago and couldn't be happier. It is comfortable, fast, and elegant. Don't underestimate Buick. I would be hard pressed to find a better car for the price. I had a Verano for 3 years and upgraded to the Regal. The best choice I have ever made car-wise. And this is coming from someone who has tried just about ever make and model of car over the last 30 years. It's not just for old people any more.

      David thank you very much for this post. I just bought a 2017 Regal Turbo AWD with the Limited Trim Level from Carvana, without laying eyes on it, due to good reviews like yours. Thanks

      Carl D'Angeline hi. Do you still have your regal? I just acquired one from a family member. How can I tell if it’s s Turbo or not? It has the T emblem on the right side rear but the owner thought it was not a turbo

      2018 Regal is Buick's version of the current-gen Opel Insignia. Malibu, while sharing a platform with Regal / Insignia, is designed separately.

    I just brought one 4 days ago. But I bought the Premium II trim level.
    The car have so many features and amenities,most not even offered in traditional luxury brands, it is taking me some time to learn to use them all.
    I am loving all the telematics features especially the remote and satellite start that allows you to turn on or off your vehicle from anywhere via mobile phone, now that the cold weather has arrived.
    Don't sleep on Buick.
    Remember The legendary 1987 Grand National GNX was a turbo Buick Regal.

      Just purchased one a few weeks ago, in fact, this exact model. I keep looking for confirmation that the vehicle is as good as it seems. I am extremely happy with this vehicle. I cruise most of the time, but every now and then, I hit the pedal, and she does not disappoint! I love this car.

      @@bobrobertson3558 The car has been going excellent to this day,. My only slight concern is that I seem to have a slow leak in one of the tires. I have to add air to it every few weeks. However, its not bad enough for me to buy a new tire.

    Not enough Chevy references. Come on now we know the 2.0T is also found in the Malibu, Camaro, ATS, etc. The buttons and infotainment is the Chevy Mylink rebranded and stuff. Still a GM product at the end.

      The two cars have some very different personality traits. The Buick build quality is noticeably tighter, handling much better, and the ride is a lot more quiet. And chicken before the egg here: Malibu is the same platform, but was designed & engineered by Chevrolet division in North America. Regal was designed by Opel Germany, with luxury enhancements (like the quiet-tuning) and other, more superficial changes commissioned by Buick division for the NA market.

      Are you nuts? A comparable Audi or BMW or Mercedes would be much much more costly with the same equipment and likely have higher insurance costs, never mind the cost of running a European car in north america. I own this exact car, very sporty feel and will push 140 mph rather easily. The definition of an overlooked car.

    Driving this car is like riding a horse without saddle, its too much noisy inside, low profile tyres may have improve looks yet uncomfortable to ride, small road dings and dents are felt loud, annoying, poor manoeuvring, too heavy look, poorly manufactured I Canada, though upholstery is good in quality but not elegant, insufficient capacity in cabin, no left foot rest is provided, seat are harder and uncomfortable, nothing to say "wow" accept brand name, that's the reason this car is not popular in market, no resale value,
