- In this video I give a full in depth tour of the all new 2011 Buick Regal CXL. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
My Dad had one of these. 2011 Regal CXL in Quicksilver. I remember really liking it, the way it drove and how it rode. It was really comfortable. Unfortunately after he passed, we had to sell it due to his estate needing to be sold since he did not have a will, and the car went with it. I wish I could have kept it, not only because it was nice, but I had so many memories in that car with him.
I love the design language of this vehicle and I recently purchased this car for $9K. Pretty well worth it I must say.
Ok I know Buick were normally known for being old people's cars, but that is one Buick I'd actually LOVE to own!
This car is great. Have had it for ten years. For trips it’s wonderful have gotten well over 38mpg on the road.
On my last trip to Atlanta was on 20 between Al and Ga. The traffic was stacked up. No one was in the left lane. There were six 18 wheelers all blocking the flow. After about 5 miles going 50 in a 70 and knowing you can go over the limit to pass ....I thought ok Girl let’s do it.
This ten year old car got up to 120 mph ! Passed all six got back over slowed to the appropriate speed limit and drove all the was in to Atalanta with no traffic until approaching my exit.
Bottom line great car if you can find one.
The only thing that has me wanting a different car is the back seat.
My Dog is just too big for entry. Oh He can get in there but is apprehensive and really does have a hard time.
Looking for a Durango Seven seat spilt with the optional Dog crate for My Dog. So salesmen find me one.
Don’t need the Hellcat but do like the intake on the hood. And want 4 wheel drive.
Black on Black or red interior.
As for the Regal .. she’s a keeper. And has earned some nice rims for her Birthday. .....lc
Hoping to buybthis exact model today
What a BEAUTIFUL car! Those Regals are great, and gotta love the "switchblade" key! My sister's VW had one.
DUDE YOU FOUND A REGAL! Youre the man Kyle!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GREAT Video :) What got me to subscribe to your channel was a Buick Park Avenue but then i was away from RUclips for a little while and i come back to RUclips and what do i see on here a review on the New Buick Regal. Great job on the video on how you make it flow along so easily and not make it boring :)
love the switchblade key, never seen one on a gm
thats a good lookin car right there inside and out, american cars are just getting better and better
I'll try to get a video on the Vauxhall Insignia that this Buick Regal was based on when I go to the UK in a few days, but for now great video as always, Kyle!
In my opinion, the videos showcasing the newer 2010/2011 cars are better than the videos showcasing older cars. It lets new car buyers see all of the different types of features the vehicle has.
Probably one of the most beautiful full-sized near-luxury sedan on the market today! Looks almost of if not just as good as the new Ford Taurus!
Yes!!! I always wanted to see an in depth review of this car! Thanks!
Buick have really started making some great cars in the last few years. I would love to have a new Buick and most likely will buy one next time I buy a new car.
Great video as always, you do a great job with these.
Seems like a very well made car. The new Saab 9-5 uses the same platform and it looks just absolutely great aswell. Very good review Kyle.

my Dad just got a 2010 LaCrosse CXL 3.0L AWD, pearl white on tan, fully loaded, hope to make a video of it maybe next week.
NICE! I didn't even realize these were out yet!
you have a full in depth tour of this car and i haven't even seen this on the road yet! and i live in myrtle beach!
buick really did a good job with this car
WOW Kyle im impressed that u actually found one
Nice Video and real nice review!
I remember test driving the 4 cly eco tech bag it was a nice ride he was Hustling it’s way
now this is my kind of buick !! LOL
great video man, definately one of my favourites
gotta watch it again when quality improves lol
lol, when you demonstrate the radios in your videos, it seems like there is always a Lady GaGa song playing on one of the stations.
I like the interior, looks like a really nice car.
I have one it a great car perfect it car
They moved the door lock button for the back door from the front (near the B pillar) to the back. If you have ever had a car without power locks, this seems wierd. On cars without power locks, the only way to unlock the back door is to reach the button from the front area. When the car gets old, if the power locks break, or when the battery dies, how will you unlock the back doors?
Hints of the 1949 Buick Sedanette are in the rounded details, as well as the shape of the rear windows, and the waterfall grill. But the air conditioner, heated seats, leather upholstery, and power accessories are above whatever was available in 1949.
What the hell are you talking about? This is german car Opel Insignia, designed and built in germany, it has nothing to do with buick and have no any resemblance to any buick, it just has the name and badge to apeal to american market, because muricans dont trust european cars. Yet you dumb enough to like european car if it has american name on it lol
Can’t wait to get mine!
Now that is one awesome buick!! I hope they come out with a V6 though. they've been selling this in asia of a year or so now, finally in north america!!
I love Buick interiors .
Very good Kyle. Thank you. Looking forward to more of the GM products in the future past and present. I learned more about this car than I already knew.
do all buick cxl s all got moon roofs 2011
@companyman007
here is a information about Mercedes models.
2000 parts are different in a single Mercedes made in EU and USA.
That goes for the same models.
And these are 2 different brands like VW and AUDI.
So i am wondering how does it drive, more comfortable, more sporty, ect.
Nice looking Buick but I sure hope that there is a V6 engine available. The 4 cylinder sounds like a Cobalt at start up. Count on Kyle to bring the newest cars the quickest.
Great video. Could you tell me what I need to do so I can make videos longer than 10 min fit on youtube?
CAN YOU PLEASE PLEASE DO THE LACROSS
THANK YOU:)
thats weird. its rpm gague is measured in the european styled x100. (instead of x1000)
hell yeah. A new Regal! Great video!
opel has done a great job on that car:)
I'm thinking of buying one of these in 2017. Anyone know how they held up?
B000gnish dont
@@TheIamdevin why
@@dmoore215 2.4 engines are known for problems, not much power and certain interior features just feel like cheap gm. I own one and yes their nice cars but you can find ones with nicer interiors and better more reliable engines than the regal
@@TheIamdevin what reliable cars you have in mind, i don't wanna waste money
I bought an Opel Insignia 2010 in perfect fine condition 4 months ago, depends on how the car was maintained. didn't regret my decision one sec. has a 2.0 diesel engine btw.
Sweet, can't wait for more!
Thx 4 the vid :) i wanted to check this car out cuz my grandma might be gettin 1 and i wanted to see wat the goodies were
why the check engine light is on till engine starts then goes off. is it normal?
awesome, I really hope that make the GS
Can the sun roof and transmission be repair
the transmission on the China 2009- the 2011-present Buick Regal
Transmission
6-speed GM Hydra-Matic automatic (2.4 L)
6-speed Aisin AF40 automatic (2.0 L turbo)
6-speed manual (2.0 L turbo)
the color is amazing looks as if its black with dust.and 19mpg city and 30Hwy...that's a big difference.
You don't plug in household utensils, u plug in small appliances. BTW, what is the maximum wattage capability of rear AC power plug.
Very Nice. GM is designing very well these days. I'd take one fully loaded.
Does the stock stereo system in this vehicle have radio station preset buttons? I know, stupid question but every video I've seen uses that oldschool tuning dial and I don't see how presets could be integrated from what I've seen so far...
very nice find, what exactly does tiptronic shifting mean?
the 2011-present Buick Regal is assembled in
Shanghai, China
Rüsselsheim, Germany
Oshawa, Ontario, Canada
@movadopika what about the zr1 that has a push button start.
Any major mechanical issues when they hit 100,000 miles?
Yes! Timing chain and tensioner. Have to get the whole kit, gaskets, luckily not the water pump as well, Regals of this year had a lotta problems with that issue. Cost in Texas, 1500.00
Listen for a rattle in the tensioner!
I hate 4cyl engines, v6s are so much smoother and ofc more powerful, I wish they made more small v6s, like the Buick centurys had those 2.8L V6s those things were great, both fairly powerful, efficient and quiet.
Love this one!
Reminds me of the 2008-current Saturn Vue!
im hoping to get a turbo stick shift one as my first car
Kyle, I dont think you said...but do you know what the price range was around for this car?
@siganeviil Its just an Opel, Vauxhalls are just rebadged Opels for England.
I'll consider one when they come out with a V6.
So does this mean that you are now some type of partner with this car dealer aswell??? If you are, will there be more GM cars such as this Buick (excellent video of course) on your website?
Would a 2011 with 80k for 8k worth it?
what do you think is better, the Regal or Sonata?
Where's radiator for water?
@saabkyle04 You honestly think push button start is stupid, it's so convient because you wont have to fumble for your keys all you have to do is have the keys on you. If your key breaks that's why they give you two. I personally love it but that's my opinion it's ok if you don't agree with what I'm saying
@larlar752000 Push start buttons are actually more reliable than normal starters, because, the principle is the same, but there are no moving parts. :P
Does this car have a backup camera
Please do the lacross
thanks
@perfectcheeseburger hmmm the design is a opel insignia just with a different grill.
that steering wheel looks like the one inside a newer accord
I personally do not like this car. Mainly because of style, it does in fact have a lot of nice features but I would like to see Buick bring back the old Regal, the 1987 GNX style to be specific. I would definitely buy one of these cars if it were the style 'G' bodies like they were back in the late 80's. Who knows, maybe one day!
I know this video is kind of old and nobody might not see this, but I’m getting a used one and I was wondering if I’d be able to install a CarPlay radio? Or is it too old to do that?
Shouldn’t be an issue
So they just brought the Regal back?
@waitgo its nothing like an isignia, fair enough it has the same rev counter and speedo as the insignia and thats it
@dreamtheater142 I agree! Its light years better than all the previous Regals!
Mixing margaritas in the back seat! Woo hoo!
beatiful
@clantzjone because they control the senior citizen segment.
They ride 😊 good☺️
I had a buick, didnt think much of it, no i want another.
I would love to have one of these. I just wish the 2.4 didn't sound like a sewing machine at idle!
Radiator ?
Is this one the highest trim level?
Sorry GM, but the that grill does not fit the car. The original Insignia looks way better. I glad to see European cars in America, now I know what to buy after I moved to Canada. Go Opel and Buick!
BTW Nice video, can't wait for the test drive video!
Do you have the new Cadillac CTS, kyle?
@companyman007 well other cars from European car companies (Mercedes, BMW, AUDI, ect.) are completely different than their American models.
The parts aren't the same.
Hmmmmm...... does it handle as good as the Opel Insignia?
How come you got a push button start in your Genesis Coupe if you think it's stupid? Not trying to be judgmental or anything, just wondering.
the back side of the car seems the Opel insignia back...
GM needs the push button start thingy
very soundproof, once you closed that door i heard nothing.
Dang Kyle, I am surprised with all the vehicles you review now! New Sonata, Tuscon, Regal... keeps me wondering what will be on next!
Porque no traducen en Hespaña
البويك حلوة من ايدك
@saabkyle04 Can't wait to see it! I never thought I would be interested in a Buick lol
Wearing loafers I see :D nice vid!
it's sad they've stopped making american cars, ford released fiesta(a euro car), and these regal, malibu, and aura are all based on opel platforms
Should have used a GM 3.6l DOHC v6 and Supercharged it, still, it's a beautiful car.
@derbigpr500 Expect for that button and the contact points inside.
@IanHimself28 Ha! Lucky I read comments before Iposted...you beat me to it.
