My regal is currently at 287k miles, and closing in on 300k fast. This is hands down the most reliable car our family has owned.
Repairs over the last 14 years:
Alternator x2
Fuel pump
Rear struts
Brake pads/front rotors
Transmission cooler lines x2
Rear motor mount
Turn signal switch
And that's basically it, minus routine oil changes and minor tune ups. All repairs well under $250 and most done by me to save.
The engine is perfect for this car. It's very quiet when you want it, and makes a pretty awesome growl when you drop the pedal. I've been 90 mph down the interstate and held a perfect straight line with plenty of power still on tap.
EDIT: 8-8-16
Yes I still have this car, and I still love it. It just ticked over to 378k miles, and I wrote my original review when it was at 278k. My plan is to update this review every 100k miles. I'm still on the original engine and transmission, neither of which have been rebuilt. I've had some repairs over the years, but nothing uncommon and bank breaking. I've not had a single break down in the past 100k miles. That's pretty darn good if you ask me. Don't let the dull "granny car" look get to you. These regals are unreal, and it baffles me how cheap you can get them for. The 3.8 engine is a beast, and if you find one, you won't be disappointed.
I'll update when I get to the next 100k. :)

Custom 4dr Sedan
Virtually maintenance free. Brakes
were the biggest issue to maintain.
Not a sports car but otherwise a good
ride, good fuel economy (27 mpg), good
handling in all weather, lots of room
and not very expensive in the first
place.

The 93 Regal is a good reliable vehicle, though these days the gas mileage is a problem. Spending an hour to 2 on the highway used a half a tank of gas. Its very comfortable with plenty of space for people and cargo. Headlights are too dim (though that may be due to age). No major complaints, and this car will run forever. Though my windows have gone off- track multiple times even after getting them replaced; they don't seem to be quality windows. I would advise people to find a newer car these days as the 93 Regal is 16 years old now.

Limited 4dr Sedan
The best vehicle I've ever owned. It
has power to spare, exceptional
creature comforts and style. Looks are
still in style and still get
compliments on the vehicle. Exceptional
reliability. The vehicle is almost 10
years old and still drives like new.
I'd recomend this vehicle to a friend
and would purchase another on in a
heart beat.
