Buick outdid themselves on this car. I love it, power when you need it. Enough options to keep you satisfied and an all around good car. I enjoy just cruisin' in it.

Never was a GM fan but heard others brag about the 3.8 motor so much thought that I would give it a shot. Let just say this car put the nails in the coffin as far as having GM vehicles in my household. Engine stalled out while going down highway @ 75 mph and had to manual steer the vehicle to the shoulder during heavy traffic was a scare to say the least. After some research, apparently it is a common problem with the 3.8 motor!? I don't know how people are okay with a vehicle can just stall out in any giving time and feel safe having their love ones driving it. I was glad it was me driving it when it stalled out and not my pregnant wife. Got it "fixed" and few days later problem reoccurred.

Buick Regal GS: A Dream Come True

I have never owned a car that performs like my Regal GS. My Regal has 92,000 miles and runs beautifully. People to this day cannot believe that I drive a 1998 model because it looks so new. I have had the oil changed faithfully every 2 to 3 thousand miles. I make sure that every option is in good working order. I keep the car in mint condition because I love the car. It is beautiful, comfortable, reliable, and has every option available. The supercharger makes a huge difference in the engine performance which produces 240hp (the most powerful engine in its class). I love the car!

The car had a few minor defects upon taking delivery, mostly cosmetic. It has been 100% reliable, has had absolutely no mechanical or electrical failures, and has a remarkably smooth ride while at the same time offering plenty of performance for being a fairly heavy car. The 3.8L V6 offers plenty of power to maneuver in traffic even at high speeds. I replaced a 1997 BMW 528i with this car, and in find the acceleration to be quite comparable. Contemporary styling of 1997+ Regals also make it attractive for younger buyers. I highly recommend this car as a refined alternative to the Mercury Sable or Cadillac CTS.

The series II 3800 V6 engine has plenty of underlying power when you need it. Road noise is nonexistent. Suspension is sure and straight. Good overall cabin visibility. Controls are easily accessible. Night turning lights are great for seeing in the dark.
