i am trilled u like my design for pontiac.

[barffboy217]

This is where you can see GM is kinda bringing the Pontiac style and performance back! (But its now called a buick). And with a turbo inline4 putting out more HP than its previous generation's supercharged V6, Wow!! I can't imagine what the V6 model will have!!!

[gewezell]

supposed to get a 331 aluminum mouse

[santiagoz2]

gorgeous!

[SuperColossal33]

Beautiful car.

I hope they Stick with the Ecotech i4, it's a great motor, if they're going to dump a v6 in it, it'll just end up being the one in the v6 camaro, which has around the same power as that 4cyl

[eeckoboi]

no ur not stupid @calimustan86 because they do its mean't to be a copy version of da vauxhall insignia.....

[YTman28]

Man, American auto makers are a bunch of dumbasses forever. I'm just gonna stay with a Mustang.

[adampad82]

Inside line sucks.

[aalex169]

HP?...

[MisterHolaMan]

Give it a Northstar.

[texan176]

They should just drop the entire Pontiac G8 motor in this car, keep the 6 speed, and offer RWD standard with AWD an option for about $1500 more.

[caudice]

@texan176 they almost did that with the LaCrosse Super, except it was a 300hp LS4 and it was FWD.

which is why GM is broke

[4POINT3TropicalStorm]

i saw this in person yesterday

[Calimustang86]

dont they also sell this as a vaxhual? or am i stupid?

[bsg1206]

Yep, they do

[quatlen]

I saw one of these in the parking lot at the NAIAS but you couldn't get into one on the show floor. :(

[Wormtail81]

If only it had more power.

[bluestarkad17]

i really wish ppl would stop saying that, as if its gonna flop because it doesnt have the HP u want...the car probably isnt targeted for u....it will drive just fine with what it has...GM has no room for error

[Wormtail81]

I agree with you in general. I only bring that up because the European car (the Opel) has a fair bit more power.

[Marcosino007]

opel insignia=vauxhall insignia=buick regal= next chinese shit?

[XOLOTL68]

need the v6 awd

[brobah]

aha, so thats the guy with the dramatic voice!

[PATTYZ102]

is this guy retarded or something

[305pride]

i effing like it too, i think im going to buy this over the cts. the gs should be cheaper then the cts right?

[jtrcek]

that dude hasn't got a clue about engines... in europe opel insignia opc has v 2.8. V6 twin turbo with 325HP with 4 wheel drive. In america it will be sold as a buick regal GS with a 2.0l l4 turbo engine with 255HP. Americans got the weaker engine, not the other way around. I think it has something to deal with a V6 being too powerful for a buick...

[305pride]

fuel economy

[loufadoros20]

also known as opel Insignia

[paulb4uk]

Its awful the uk hate this car pure rubbish usa is getting our left overs now .

[ThePhiltastic]

It won the Car of the year award in europe

[sergh8605]

i want one

[AccidentallyFunny]

idk if this sounds dumb or not, but I actually really like the Buick logo

[shoelover10]

I love this Regal and I hope after a while, they release a high output V6 with the manual, AWD and a coupe version. Even if it pushes close to 40K, I would buy it!

[neostardust]

all else aside, this is the best looking Buick in a long time... perhaps decades (now that it's 2010). The "grand-sport" is probable in the 30's, so I'd probably buy a different car for that money, but I'm sure it'll appeal to some.

[harmonicamajor]

I like it too. lets see what the performance numbers have to say.

[wideopen704]

this guy is a cunt

[Artist1974CH]

LOL

[ndyt]

a few years too late and it still isn't here...

[alterbyme]

I got this car as my wallpaper for my desktop. Awesome car.

[BestestMoron]

a poor man's audi s4!!!!

1. Has this car been tested on the track? It handling dynamics, all wheel drive performance, steering feel, gear shifting and transmission??????

How on earth can you be a marketing slut for it already?? Fucking fan boy.

[IDannyxss]

yes it has this car was on top gear as the euro spec well when i say euro spec its just a Vauxhall Insignia VXR

[Raige24]

Because if you pay attention this car is already available in Europe genius. It'll be the exact same car that's already available and been given great reviews.

[dukee155]

@BestestMoron gm def payed these guys because they are trying to reach their big government arm out to a target market which is the person who watches inside line on edmounds

[MJND1990]

@BestestMoron

UH, this car is based nearly 100% off the Opel Insignia which has been on sale in Europe for 2 years and has won multiple awards.

[etlamphil]

@MJND1990

not only nearly 100% vauxhall insignia. it is one with a buick badge stuck on it. its even made in rüsselsheim, germany.

[MJND1990]

@etlamphil

The engine is US GM based. Thats about it though.

I have no problem with GM using this car though. They have owned Opel for 80 years so I'm surprised they didn't do this sooner. The Insignia is a great car and has won many awards in Europe. I am happy to see it coming to the States.

[BestestMoron]

@MJND1990

SO , being based off means it retains all the characteristics? If no tests have been conducted on this car, how can you claim it as a poor man's Audi S?

[bluestarkad17]

thats what i was thinking....i would like to meet the poor man that can afford this!!

[305pride]

@bestest moron, your answer is yes.

[BestestMoron]

@305pride

can you post the link to the review of this car?

[305pride]

search topgear Vauxhall Insignia VXR its just a different engine but same car

[xxMafia101]

No it hasnt you dumb fuck.

[Roflcopterv1]

Looks like the ford taurus SHO has a challenger!

[brandenkhan15]

The SHO is in the large-sedan class whereas the Regal GS is in the mid-size sedan class. Point is, is that they don't compete with each other. Though the SHO is a great car.

[sonicwolfe51]

The Taurus is a much larger car, and this thing has a proper 6 speed manual.

[trav1971]

not bad but owned a couple A body big block buicks with ram air GS should have a LS9 variant ;)

[boutdempapers]

thats cool, i love how buick is makin a comeback, thank you asian auto market.

[anotherone10]

Looks nice
