Used 1999 Buick Regal GS 4dr Sedan Consumer Reviews
Tried and True
I think this car has proven to be one of the best cars of the past decade. There are some things I wish had been designed differently but all in all, this car has been a gem. I have about 145K miles on it, and have had a repair or two. This is my third Buick and won't be my last.
These owners are preaching the truth!
My father's generation used to say, "People with money buy Cadilacs, but SMART people with money buy Buicks!" I would update this for my generation to say, "People with money buy BMW's (or Lexus or Infiniti), but SMART people with money buy the Buick Regal." I have owned several new BMW's over the years and don't get me wrong, the Regal GS can't match them in the handling department, but overall my Regal is much more car for the money than any BMW I ever owned. These other reviewers are preaching the truth. The Buick Regal GS is one of the best values and one of the best kept secrets on the road.
Want a new car but can't let go.
Other reviews are pretty on mark, great car. Except little electronic things like windows with 125,000 miles and counting nothing but tires, brakes have cost me. I do notice some jerking with shifting so may need some transmission work, but in optional performance shift no jerking. Highway mpg's around 29-30. Making up for my occasional immature actions at stop lights to let my kids know their old mom is still cool!
A car for the Regal.
I love my Buick! I have owned it for 7 years and it has low mileage and runs like it's new. This car has so much power. It doesn't seem like it by looking at it. the interior design is conservative, and so is the exterior design but with a sporty look to it. Unless you're driving a luxury car with a massive engine under the hood, don't race me at a stoplight. I will win.
Supercharged Fun
A V6 with V8 power and pretty good economy. It's really fun to drive, with great handling. Have a ball at a reasonable price.
