I had to give my wife the Cadillac so I wanted a nice car that was near luxury that was quiet, sporty and comfortable with good gas mileage. The Regal is a great car and I am getting an average of 27 mpg. If you want to get up and go it has the power yet is very comfortable. I had bought a used 2013 Regal and was in a 3 car wrecked. The weight and safety helped me to avoid injury. I bought the 2017 and never looked at anything else.

Purchased Regal GS last week and absolutely love this car. So far, so awesome. Lots of style, sporty, and just a fun ride. I was skeptical of a 4 cylinder engine at first, as I grew up in an age where 4 cylinders were poor performers. Not the case anymore. The 4 cylinder turbo puts out all the power anyone would ever need. Fun Ride!!!!!!!!!

...I've been asked three times by three different people in the last four months: "Hey nice car...is that an Audi?" "No, it's a Buick." "A Buick? You're kidding!!" That concludes this review.

Downsized the SUV to a Regal

This car at first I started to say no to. Then once I drove it was so quiet and nice and the acceleration for a 4 cylinder was amazing compared to the Equinox that I was driving before. My only complaint is the storage between the seats. When someone is with me there is no where to put my purse, or my dog who likes to sit on the console. Getting in and out at first was a change for me from a SUV. But if you put the seat in the highest upward position it helps a lot. The trunk is amazing, more room than my suv by far. I would of liked to have the beeping on back up along with the camera, which I had before letting me know I am getting too close. But it gets great gas mileage compared to my 4 cylinder SUV. I average around 26 MPG, with the Equinox I got 21. The leather is nice on the seats, it has a clothed material around the edge to keep the seats from cracking from ware like transitional leather seats. And the inside trim is accented with a nice chrome color. The Touch screen is wonderful also. I have about 7,800 miles on mine so far, acceleration still wonderful on it. Also the AC is nice and cold. I have a White Regal with Black Interior, the AC cools it pretty quickly as July has been a hot month. Also, this car is not for Middle Class and Retirees only. The Regal 11 Sport has power. My teenage daughter Bought a Jeep Cherokee and loves to drive my Regal due to the acceleration and Sun Roof in mine.

Top-reliability rating &affordable. I'd invest now

Buick's engineering is on the rise. Much more frequent advertising since being listed among the top-reliable cars in 2016-2017 Consumer Reports ratings. Mid-luxury, highly-reliabile quality vehicles at a reasonable cost. Recommend investing now before word gets out and their prices soar.

Like any vehicle it has feature's that you love and some you like. The Sport is nice looking with no Turbo for better gas mileage. The GS model is fast but doesn't have any eye appeal. I purchased the Sport Touring with the premium II package with a Turbo the best of both world's. However my wife wont let me drive it anymore, Once she realized how many feature's it has and how fast it is. Then she claimed it to be her car. And I hear her spinning the tires when she takes off from a stop light.

Cadillac to Regal

Going from a Cadillac XT5 to the Regal GS the only negative is getting in and out of the car. I am pleasantly surprised with the car, it is comfortable and with more than enough power.

I love this car! It’s rich leather and extras make me feel like I’m driving something more luxurious and higher priced! The turbo engine is fast and so smooth!! I have had zero problems with this car. It only has 29,000 miles on it but still drives like it’s new!

Never cared for "brand names", but will admit everyone was "Like the new Audi/BMW you've got now..." LOL! Since Buick put the Regal on the Opel chassis and upped their game on styling as well as reliability I can honestly say it's going to keep on being my "Go To" car model. Turbo engine has gotten me out of some tough spots; I drive from VA to OH a lot so have mountains in Western MD/West VA and PA to deal with and the turbo rules there! I got a used 2013 November of 2015 with all of 11k miles on it; 70k miles later and she's still a sharp looking high performing car. BEST THING about the 2013 is NO BIG SCREENS in the cockpit -- I realize everyone else loves these, but to me it's too much visual noise. Trunk space is awesome, and I have the sunroof/moonroof model, which I love. Only my dog can comment on the comfort of the backseat -- if I had to ride in the back I'd probably wish for a little more leg room but ceiling clearance is fabulous. Only have had one glitch in it the whole time I've owned it -- A/C system conked out the 2nd year I had it; covered by extended warranty and my dealerships in Metro DC do great work, so no problems with repairs and no issues since. Nice thing about domestic cars (at least older models) is they don't cost an arm/leg to repair or maintain. Wish it didn't cost $100 to get a new key fob but can't have everything :^)
