  I have the 2011 Buick Regal Turbo. I have noticed if I have the back windows down there is extreme noise , almost like I have a flat tire and the care seems unstable. Fine when the windows are back up. Does anyone have this problem?

  Car Man - are these cash incentives secret? I haven't seen them on Buick's website and the dealer I'm speaking with hasn't mentioned them. Additionally, they've stated the 2011 Regal can't be leased any longer since the 2012's are out. Please advise. Thanks! R

  As far as I am concerned, the 2011 Buick Regal is better than any car from the competition, whether it be Acura, VW, Audi, BMW, Infiniti, Hyundai or whatever. If you don't agree, so be it. Tough titty, as they say! Buy the inferior alternative and be quiet!

  And given the pricing structure and exchange rate with the Euro (even though now it is a bit better than it was), it needs to be marketed against the A4 and TSX. In Europe, it competes more with the VW Passat and Ford Mondeo--both of which need to sell here for more than a typical Malibu or Fusion does (and explains why Ford does not import the Mondeo...although maybe they should...oh, ...

  I certainly do, Frank. GMAC's June base lease rate for a 36 month lease of a 2011 Buick Regal is 2.0%. General Motors is currently providing a $400 cash incentive on leases of this car through GMAC. I haven't seen the new Regal's residual value's yet. I'll look and see if I can get them for you. Please feel free to check back with me in a few days and I'll ... Read More

  Actually the only one that is available right now is the CXL with the base engine. It's nicely equipped but is not even remotely a "performance model." This CXL is probably going to be the volume model, but I haven't seen a single review of it anywhere (though the Turbo, which won't be available till fall, is getting lots of press).

  i think the new Regal has some good potential. However, I wonder if they are making a mistake rushing out a higher priced performance model months before a more mainstream model is available? I'm thinking that could give the car a reputation as "too expensive" before the mainstream (and volume) model hits the showrooms?

  The 2011 Buick Regal is on the way and I wanted to get things rolling here. I am very interested in this car (I never thought I would be interested in a Buick) but the initial reviews are outstanding and I love the look.

  Here's a small review of the 2011 Buick Regal, including some photos and the original press release. "In Europe it is known as the Opel Insignia, but for the North American market General Motors decided to revive a name first used in 1973: the Buick Regal. Sales of the new sport sedan will begin in the second quarter of 2010, and its main competitors will be Acura TSX and Volvo S60. ... Read More

  Today I viewed pictures of the 2911 Buick Regal , which will be introduced in the second quarter of 2010, on Edmunds and another site. Both the exterior and interior styling look excellent to me. The engine lineup will include or consist of (it's not clear to me which) GM's 2.4 four and a direct injection turbo four. The Regal will compete directly with an all-new Volvo S60 and the Acura ...
