  • 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.

    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

    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?

  • @72Yonatan
    @72Yonatan 14 лет назад

    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.

    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.

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!
