First Buick after five Cadillacs

UPDATE: 10/26/2016 - it's been 18 months, my Regal is still going strong. Lifetime (40K miles) MPG is up 30 - amazing for a sporty car that loves being revved. I didn't mention previously, but one of my favorite features is OnStar Remote Link - being able to track where my car is, start it, check vitals, etc. from my phone is such a convenience - you'll wonder how you live without it. Lately, we've noticed some squeaking coming from the dash - it's not too bad yet, and we have put a LOT of miles on this car. Next time she goes in for an oil change, I'll ask dealer to take a look/listen. Dealer service department is A+ - Premier Autoplex in Livingston - couldn't be friendly or provide better service. I don't take my vehicles anyplace but the GM dealer for servicing. The price is in line with competition and they know their vehicles better (I've know people who've tried to 'cheap out' and ended up ruining their cars because their "Average Joe" mechanic didn't know enough about their vehicle to maintain/fix it properly). Like all GM vehicles, the Regal suffers from being 'unknown' and American. So many people are devoted to Honda or Toyota that they won't even test drive other vehicles - and they lose out. I am pleased every time I see, get in, or drive my Regal - it's just about the perfect car... Great gas mileage, excellent road manners, fast, comfortable (if you'll notice, we put on about 150 miles every day... we're in the car well over two hours every day, so comfort is important), very well equipped for a $30K vehicle, and reliable. Update: 4/2016 Well, it's been a year with my Regal and my first impression hasn't changed much. It's still an awesome car. As luxurious as my previous Cadillacs, but with a much easier to use instrument panel (real buttons!!!). MPG is up to 28.5 - and I don't have a feather foot in any way, although we do a majority of our driving on the highway (about 150 miles, round trip daily). The only quibbles: 1.) The computer that senses the remote had to be replaced (under warranty) - it wasn't recognizing the fobs - worrisome in a car that was less than a year old; 2.) The interior has a few squeaks - not surprising with a sunroof, I guess, but there are some annoying buzzes that we can't locate. We still love the car's power, handling, braking, and of course, the outstanding fuel economy. We routinely see over 30 MPG, average. It's too bad this car doesn't sell better - it's one of the best vehicles GM sells, for that matter, any manufacturer. It's a great buy, in my opinion. Original Review: So, after five Cadillacs (3 STSs, and 2 CTSs), I decided to try the Buick Regal. I liked the size and fuel economy (we commute 150 miles daily). I couldn't stand the CUE interface in the Cadillac and was a little dismayed that the same basic system is used in the Buick. I have to say, though, that it works much better in the Buick - there are hard buttons for the climate controls and radio - very nice. The individual temp controls and seat heater controls are a weird touch-panel that doesn't work very well - Buick should have just used hard buttons like the rest of the climate controls. The front seats are very comfortable and there is plenty of room. The center console is a bit small, as is the glove box, but this is a fairly small vehicle so I guess that's to be expected. The back seat looks nice, but it also looks very cramped although my 5'6" mom doesn't complain at all, even when she sits behind the driver seat (I'm 6'4"). The trunk is spacious and the Premium I package includes almost everything my Caddy's had (except, alas, ventilated seats). Driving dynamics are great - she's fast, fluid, and agile. Passing is a piece of cake, the brakes are monsters, and the ride is well-controlled (definitely not grandma's Buick). The Navigation, like CUE and other GM products is flaky - we end up using our phones more than the car's nav. Also, the split functionality (between the nav and the instrument panel) is a very strange design - sometimes the system initially 'finds' a destination, but then the navigation system cannot... routing is also terrible... more than once GM's Navigation systems have tried taking us down non-existent roads. Fuel economy is great for the size and performance. The 2.0 Turbo is plenty powerful and we always use premium "Top Tier" gasoline.

Never thought I'be be buying a Buick but i really love this car. It drives great. If you live in snowy New England, this car is a great way to have great traction without having to have an SUV. This car matches up well with the Audi A4 at almost $10,000 less. And it uses regular gas!

Underrated Sedan

2015 Buick Regal Premium II 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

I have owned this car for 8 months and love it. It is very underrated by reviewers. My Buick Regal is a 2015, Premium II with some added features like sunroof. This car has outstanding acceleration while achieving overall 26 MPG. Driving comfort is fantastic with the most comfortable seats. Controls are well placed. I saw reviews mentioning the window button placement and heated seat buttons, these are overstated complaints and are non-issues. This car is sporty with the patented Buick smooth ride. Great road feel but with top of the line ride comfort. The car appearance is understated and classy. I love the front end grill. This car has all the bells and whistles you can ask for. Standard bumper to bumper warranty of 4 years, 48,000 miles. Buick dealer service is outstanding. When purchasing, dealer was willing to work with me on price. Excellent value. If you are looking for a quality mid size vehicle, you cannot go wrong. Compare to the overpriced BMW, Audi, Acura, Infinity, Lexus and you will appreciate the quality and value of the Buick.

Love the drive and the look, inside and out. Love that the seat warmers go on when remote start is activated. The one negative is the interior layout of the center console, too tight. There is limited storage room. I describe this as a poor man's Audi A4.
Better than my 2011

I traded my 2011 Buick Regal in on this 2016 because I loved my 2011 so much. My 2011 was not a turbo & it was a dark gray with black interior. My wife and I wanted a lighter color outside with a light color interior also. We bought it in July 2016 when Buick was giving 20% off on certain models. We used our GM points from our GM card and the discount on the car listed for 31,000 we paid $23,300 for it. I could not pass up that deal up. The color was Champagne Silver with cashmere leather interior. I love the changes & improvements they have made since 2011. My 2016 drives smoother and is quieter & the turbo engine is great. It is real easy to use all of the features this car has to offer. I can get in this car & drive it on a long trip & feel comfortable the whole time. This is only one the second Buick I have owened. I have been driving since 1972 & have owened a lot of cars & trucks over the years both foreign & domestic. We have 5 vehicles now & the Buick is by far my favorite to drive. I have test driven other mid sized sedans but I like the Regal best.

I'm about 8,000 miles into my 2015 Buick Regal (Premium II) class and I've had it for about 7 months now. It drives really well and feels comfortable enough behind the wheel; However the interior has a few problems. In order for me to access the window/lock buttons I have to contort my body a bit and bend my arm considerably (I'm 6' 1"), it's not natural. Also, for me to access the storage console in the center, I have to reach back and put my body and arm in an awkward and uncomfortable position to open it... Basically, should not do this while driving as it can be dangerous. My other cars allowed my arms to comfortably go off the steering wheel and to the window switch with ease rather than have to start bending and contorting... Same with the center storage console. Visibility while backing up and changing lanes is not so good. You really have to depend on the camera; However, the camera in my vehicle is too bright during the day and has poor detail, so it's not very reliable. Finally, the "Infotainment" console has had some glitches in just the 7 months, which makes me feel it's just a matter of time before something goes bad: 1) Within 3 Months the temperature gauge stopped working consistently... it takes about 10 minutes to start gauging the right temperature outside. 2) twice I've entered my car to a loud buzzing sound that stopped once I turned the vehicle on. 3) twice I've pressed my ignition button and the car wouldn't wouldn't start (as if the battery was dying). 4) Several times when I've turned my vehicle on, the console has "glitches out" shut off and then turned back on. 5) Once, after reversing and going into drive, the parking camera stayed on for the entire time I was driving and never switched back to my radio/console view. 6) Many times I've adjusted the volume and it switched my radio channel instead. 7) When my front windshield gets fogged up, the "defroster" seems to not work AT ALL. I've tried different combos of settings, but nothing seems to work. I took it in once for a minor issue and told them about the issues and they said there was nothing they could really do about it yet.

At only 700 miles, it is hard to judge a brand new car. So take that into consideration as you read this. And, it will be helpful to know that I was NOT shopping Buicks - at all - before I bought this. In fact, I wasn't shopping ANY car that had an MSRP more than $30K, and this Regal GS was stickered at nearly $41K. So what happened here? I had been driving a 2012 Hyundai Elantra Limited and wanted a car with more HP & torque, better handling and more tech features. First looked at the new Elantra's - nope. Looked at Mazda 3s - nope. Cruze, nope. Mustang... well, not more than $30K so that was out of the question anyway. Not interested in anything Toyota had, nor Honda for that matter. Wife mentions Buick one day. BUICK??? Oh... yeah... the Verano! So, I decided on July 4 to shop them, not really expecting the dealer to be open. They were. Before I knew it, I was test driving a Regal T premium, but didn't like the interior. Saavy sales rep finds a GS out back and convinces me to drive it. Sure, why not drive a freakin' $40,000 car!!! Anyway, to sum it up, I bought the thing. Not that day, but later next week. So, enough on how I got into this car, here's my summary review: Overall: 4 stars because 3 wasn't enough and there's no 3-1/2. It IS a NICE car, but some things are missing. Performance: I don't have a great basis for comparison. Last "fast car" I drove was '74 Chevelle SS with a 454 v8. But... the Regal does move and moves quickly - once you get past the turbo lag. The acceleration and power curve are quite nice after that. At slower speeds, 25 - 35 say, it can hardly get out of its own way unless you put your foot into it. Steering and road holding I think I very good - feels solid, good feedback. BMW drivers might find it dull and lumbering, but for me, it is more than adequate and would not fear driving this car 120 mph. Especially because the Brembo brakes are confidence inspiring. What kinda sucks is the tranny when you shift on your own. I'm still learning where this car needs to be on the rpms, but it is SO quiet, and quick, that I didn't realize I was up to almost 4000 rpms and still in second. She didn''t like that very much. in more normal driving, ahem, I found while the shifts are smooth, there's no audible feedback from the engine. keep your eye on the rpm guage!! but... see... you need your eyes on the road and your ears on the engine. other than that, shifts fine and you can toss this car around pretty well. but she's heavy. this, of course, coming from being used to a featherweight Elantra. just driving as an automatic, shifts are smooth and about where you would expect, and want, them to be, even under heavy acceleration. Comfort-Interior -- For the money, she's quite comfortable. Seats are firm(er) in the GS model which has an upgraded seat and leather package, but they fit me well. The car fits me well in fact. I'm 6'0" and about 180 lbs. The front is a bit narrow, but I still have plenty of elbow and hip room. Seats provide thigh support right where I need it. Headroom, even with the sunroof, is fine, plenty of clearance. Someone at 250 might not fit as well. Controls are all relatively well-laid out, similar in some ways to the Elantra, so i'm not having any issues in finding where things are, and everything is within easy reach. except two things..... Nitpick alert! One negative about the interior design is where the window controls and outside mirror control are. In the Elantra, resting my elbow on the door grip in a comfortable spot at my side, my fingers fell right onto those, with only a slight reach forward to the mirror control. In the Regal, I have to bring my hand back almost a full hand-length and LOOK as to which button do I have, front window or back window? I also find quite annoying where the door grip is. The interior features a nice swooshy grab bar in fake metal. it's okay to use when closing the door. but when opening it, the grip is a bit far forward, making an already heavy door even heavier because you're pushing it open too far forward. and here's the gotchya - there is no grip in the elbow rest part of the door, no place for your hand. Cheap, GM, very cheap. As noted, this car is quiet. In fact, I've never been in a quieter car save for a fun little drive in an 80s vintage Rolls Royce. But also noted, that's a negative when it comes to hearing the engine, or exhaust. Visibility is mostly okay, but out the back and over the shoulder are tougher. The B pillar is pretty wide... you'll quickly learn to use, and appreciate, the blind spot warning in the mirrors. Rear is smallish and narrow, but hardly an obstacle. The Mazda 3 hatchback was much, much worse. As to instrumentation, well, there's a learning curve there, but it's all there if you want it, including oil temp and pressure, friction bubble (wha???), and a whole mess of other stuff. Not the easiest to use and could stand a bit more ability to customize, but I find it complete, easy to read. ###

We owned a 2012 base Regal with 73,000 that saved my life in a high speed side impact traffic accident. We found a 2016 Regal Tii Premium II with low mileage at our local Buick dealer and took it for a test drive. We were immediately impressed with the obvious improvements in the Buick Regal Tii. We were amazed at the quiet and comfort and the added horsepower of the turbo was a great plus. The Bose stereo system, navigation, blue tooth, Wi-Fi and such and this feels like the car of my retirement dreams. An American brand car that looks better, maintenance affordable and better priced then most of the Audi, BMW etc. over priced foreign models. Thanks Buick for making the car that saved my life and our new best loved car, 2016 Buick Regal Tii. JRGAR Fast forward to 2020. We still love this car. 40,000 miles now. No problems. Enjoying some some fast starts with the turbo is great. New tires now and will keep this car for another year. Hope to get a great trade in and buy a newer Buick Regal. JRGAR

Love this car, great value for the money. 4wd is what makes the difference in this segment, hard to find without spending much more. I have had 2 Legacy's before this, the brick is much more refined. Only issue is the touch controls for heated seats and temp control, they don't capture the contact if you wear gloves and even with bare finger the touch often requires several taps before it recognizes. It distracts the driver and is therefore dangerous.

This is a GM large European sports sedan it rides stiff and controlled like a Euro sedan should. I don't sit in the back, but it looks cramped. This is a way better car than my 2006 SAAB 2.0LT 6M. Larger, heavier and has a much higher level interior quality. Overall a very well balanced car for the $ refined and pretty fast. Twin Scroll turbo and 6 speed auto are well matched can feel the gears in smooth shifts. My opinion GM still makes the best automatics.

Bought 2016 Regal new..was pleased with the car and enjoyed the turbo engine. I drive slot for work. My car rolled 84000 this month. It has been at dealer 3 times. 2 bad coils. Then it overheated and blew rear head gasket. Luckily had purchased extended warranty. Then 20 days after head gasket replaced-car overheated again. Dealer seems surprised I am beyond upset. No word on why yet. All maintenance done at dealer!

That's how many days and miles my wife and I spent in this rental car. Overall, the Regal was powerful, very quiet, and comfortable on the road, with good storage space. We averaged about 30 mpg overall, even getting 27 while going 83 mph through the West. All is not well, however. The shiny chrome on the gear shift lever can shine in your eyes badly enough to be a safety hazard. The infotainment system was "okay" but the controls are poor. Particularly irritating was the fact that every single time (!) you'd turn on the ignition, it would "automatically" (but not wanted) start to play either (a) Bluetooth songs from my wife's phone or (b) songs from the USB flash drive that I brought along. Of course it was our own music, but we want to control when we play it, not the car.

I don't understand why this car is not adopted by more drivers. Maybe I can answer my own question; it is a very good all around car and as a result does not excel in any one particular area. But for function, comfort, safety and a bit of fun, I have only had one or two other cars that would challenge it for drivability. Another good criteria; would you buy this car again? I would because it is also very reliable, and has a ton of features to make it very flexible for the type of driving that I do.

Look for a certified or slightly used with a couple miles. I just purchased a 2015 Regal Premium II AWD with 1,600 miles on it and saved a lot. The savings made it a great deal on a great car. Full price there would be as good or maybe better choices. It is a very fun car to drive with a lot of nice and useful options. I would recommend this car! Glad I purchased and am sure it will last and be a great car to drive for a long time.

Four months ago I leased a 2016 Buick regal 4 cylinder turbo. I thought it was a little overpriced and the ride a little too stiff. Also the blind spot monitoring in the side view mirrors lacks an audible signal which I have in my other cars and has literally saved my life. Still, it looked good inside and out , and my wife loved the red paint job, so I went ahead. WRONG!. After leasing Hondas and Toyotas for the past 15 years without a hint of a problem, in less than 1500 miles--THE TRANSMISSION BLEW! Now I don't want the repaired car- at 79 years old I don't need the hassle of another problem sometime in the next 3 years of the lease. But of course Buick and the dealer make you sweat blood to get a new one, so I guess I'm stuck, AVOID MY MISTAKE! Stick with the Japanese cars!

128K miles and still going strong. I enjoy this car so much. In early 2019 I replaced worn out suspension parts with OEM parts. Now it feels and handles brand new again. GM got so much right with this 2015 GS 6 speed manual transmission. The engine pulls like a freight train, and the Brembo brakes stop on a dime. Delivered in silver with black leather; this is the ultimate sleeper car. Its understated muscular sheet metal, and 19” rims look sporty and elegant. I’ve always been a fan of GM’s Opel/Vauxhall products, such as the Saturn, Aura, Astra, and Sky/Pontiac Solstice. The GS is based on the Opel Insignia. It does not disappoint. 2015 was the last year for 6MT. If you see one available grab it!

I bought this car cause it had 29000.miles I love the interior. But after driving it on back roads (where I live) I can feel an hear every bump it has a constant noise I can hear from the motor, it’s smooth on smooth roads, but my 2004 Cadillac drive smoother. Now I’m stuck with this car, I got rid of my 2016 Buick Regal, for months we had to deal with water pooling in the trunk, the authorized Buick dealer did everything to stop the leaks, my husband was livid when he figured out they drilled holes in bottom of trunk to rid it of water, ( dealer denied this) but Buick knows exactly how many holes in trunk. We finally got tired of dealing with the people who sold it to us, an traded the car in for a Caddy

My car now has 105k miles, I’ve made at least 100 roundtrips of about 300 miles and I’ve never been concerned about it failing me. It’s very comfortable, has a lot of features at a fraction of the cost, including that amazing Turbo. I’ve only done maintenance, 0 repairs so far, actually the info system is kind of funky but it still works. I love this car.

I purchased a 2016 Buick Regal with over 94,000 miles in September 2022 after my 2014 Nissan Sentra was deemed a total loss after someone backed into the front of the car. I noticed right away the Buick would shake a little, but I did not think much about it. Last December, the Buick would not start after we had record breaking cold weather. After a new battery was put in, she was running fine. In early March, I noticed the car would not accelerate and felt like she was going to stall while I was driving. The repair shop tightened the intake manifold bolts, and she was driving fine on the way home. A few days later, I started the car and struggled to get the car to go 10 mph and go over speed bumps. Once again, she was not accelerating and feeling like she was going to stall. A new mass air flow sensor was put in, and she was driving well again. In May, I took the car on a 200 mile round out of town trip. The car was picking up speed too much/too fast and could struggle to slow down while driving on the interstate. When I took the exit off the interstate, the car started shaking hard and felt like it was going to stall on me. On the way home, I turn off the interstate on an exit, and the car once again, started shaking hard and felt like it was going to stall. The car was not picking up speed on the way home and was struggling the curves going through the canyon area and the road construction area. About a week later, I noticed it was wanting to stall while sitting in the driveway after I started the engine. The repair shop put in a second mass air flow sensor, and the car was running fine. I finally got fed up with the car. Paid off the loan, and use the car for a trade-in. My 2000 Ford Taurus with close to 176,000 miles on her would have handled the round trip better. The gas mileage on the same trip with the Taurus was the same with the Buick Regal. I regret getting the Nissan Sentra and Buick Regal and should have kept the Ford Taurus. I now own a 2015 Toyota Yaris with over 123,000 miles on her, and she is a dream compared to the Buick.

I just wished I test drove this car more I would have relized how much road noise there is and not enough leg room for a tall driver I bought this used with 5000 miles and payed way to much but a lot less than new, can not see paying over $30000 for a new one no way this car fills like a cheap economy car something like a Kia or Hyundia not a Buick all I can say is if you are looking at one of these cars test drive it for at least a hour on the interstate most see what I mean about road noise

Great car teansmission needed work after 17000 miles and calipers for front brakes.headlights are weak dealer had no fix or recommendation. after all a good sporty car just dont service at dealers that have ties with law enforcement as they do hacking/vandalism to cars with dealers help. issues with car solved prts were replaced by law enforcement making them useless. wiring changed by pd and transmission reworked through dealer not to shift 456 gears.thorson/reynolds
