2011 Buick Regal Revealed to Customers in L.A. HD Video

[oldschool1]

GM got smart, they're selling it's Euro GM cars in America. The recent American designed GM cars were crap, to say the least.

[plankton88]

What happened to the Regal? I was expecting at least 300+ HP not a 4cyl that doesn't even hit 200hp and will only get about 25mpg. That's just sad. My 1998 Regal gets that kind of gas mileage and puts out a nice 240hp with a V6.

[eventvisionsinc]

I LOVE IT!!!!!

[BoberMcBoberson]

I've never been a Buick hater but wow, I can't believe I'm getting excited about the launch of a buick LOL!

[jersey1979]

Turned out people overseas liked the car. So now, about 3-4 years later, we're finally going to get in the US the car we were supposed to be offered two years ago.

[jersey1979]

GM's problem isn't quality (my family has had several that have topped 200K and even 300K miles). It's building cars that people want. Look at this car. It's beautiful. It's fast. It's efficient. GM was planning on introducing it as the new Regal two years ago, but decided it was too "radical" to sport the Buick nameplate in the States, so it decided it would be a Saturn. Then it decided to scrap Saturn, so it was released finally as an Opel in Europe and as a Buick in China.

@jersey1979 This is the truth people. Listen to this man.

[ActionBastard85]

its a good looking car

[1776AmericanWarrior]

Not a good enough REGAL platform to make another GRAND NATIONAL GNX! Not to mention its not made in FLINT, MI or America! Since the US Government owns GM that car should be made here! The HELL with NEW GM!

[krislyttle]

This, my friends, is an Opel; more specifically, an Opel Insignia.... a fine automobile no doubt.

But, I wonder: Would David Buick just leap out of his grave if he learned that a car bearing his name is just a re-badged German auto?

[RickStylus]

@krislyttle

GM has no choice just to keep rebadging

cars from overseas because nowdays

USA is unable to make a good one as

Germany Japan or Korea XP

[krislyttle]

Not quite.

Tesla makes some of the coolest American cars I've seen. Yes, the Roadster is essentially a re-badged and re-worked Lotus Elise/Exige, but the Model S....Nice!

Ford makes some decent cars nowadays, though some of those are from Ford of Europe.

GM is only just now starting to; they do own Opel after all, along with Britain's Vauxhall.

That leaves Chrysler. Well....I guess they're no longer "American" in a sense, now that they've been taken over by Italy's FIAT.

[FutureMarine246]

wrong sir, Ford makes excellent cars, better than japan or germany, and Im japanese so I know what good cars are. In fact Ford's quality control is rated better than bmw. But Gm and Chrylser dont make good cars

[RickStylus]

@FutureMarine246

really?

LOL

[FutureMarine246]

oh? I'm 16 so I'm automatically an idiot? while you blindly follow the groups think of the inferiorority of American cars

[RickStylus]

@FutureMarine246

hmmm... you an idiot?

nah, perhaps just a douchebag

you arguing a lot knowing nothing about

nothing,

next time wait til you turn 18 then your dad buy a car for you before posting any "comment" talking about what you haven't: a car.

lame

[RickStylus]

@FutureMarine246

you just a 16 years old kid,

you have no idea what is the meaning

of "excellent".

[FutureMarine246]

actually I paid for my own car, and insurance/maintenance, fool

[papercut192]

Chrysler makes mostly trash, I agree. but, GM??? Come on, uh, maybe Silverado, Equinox, Buick LaCrosse (beat a Lexus in Motor Trend), Camaro... etc. etc.

[BMWDriverC101]

@FutureMarine246 i agree somewhat... gm and chrysler are terrible and ford is pretty good but in my opinion not better than german or japanese cars.. by the way im a 16 year old german lol just had to say that

[FutureMarine246]

@BMWDriverC101 cool man

[BklynJayL]

Where does the vehicle resembles a German automobile?

[ActionBastard85]

@krislyttle and your point is? . . . Opel is a GM brand.

[krislyttle]

It's a little bit more than that.

Opel has now become the cream of the entry-level GM brands. By chucking the horizontal lightning bolt of Opel and slapping the tri-shield of Buick doesn't turn an Opel into a Buick, IMO.

Maybe Adam Opel would be the one leaping out of his grave back in Germany, *LOL*.

[irokatcod4]

kinda looks like the 2010 camaro on the inside

[what2upload]

It would be a good rental car

[D3S0LaT0r]

what you guyz poor to buy a car wtf

[cu29640]

This is as good as an A4. In Europe the sedan wins awards right and left.

[steve9509]

Yes, a good rental car and a good everyday car.

[skipcar15]

I don't know if you realize it, but you can rent pretty much any car if you check the right places. You're just too negative...

[fredcatania]

Finally GM gets it right. I hope they will offer a wagon/tourer version.

[HakemEX]

A Regal Wagon was just approved a couple days ago :D They were also spied driving around in Michigan

[2000V6]

need a coupe verson

[2000V6]

Shifter belongs on the column, consoles are a waste of space

[qernst8]

LMAO!  This isn't a '92 Park Avenue, buddy.

[ohmannhey]
