The 2.4 is an oil burner... And GM knows it

When it comes to the drive experience, the vehicle is quiet and enjoyable, though the steering feels somewhat divorced from road reception. Interior is gorgeous and I love the premium feel. My only gripe is that the back seats are offensive to anyone over 5'9 and the user layout of the radio and climate control is overly extra. It's not immediately user friendly. The diming rear view mirror is the sauce and while a tad tricky, it's stylish enough to get used to. I do NOT however appreciate the engine... The 2.4 is known for burning oil and if you aren't careful, this will shaft you when you least expect it.

Really nice car

Owned this car for 8 years and never had a bit of trouble with it. Only thing I did was replace the old battery. Take in it for regular maintenance. Of course it only has 30,400 miles on it. Hope it does as well forever!

Great used car - BEST SALESMAN EVER

Great used car for the price. Our salesperson Donnie B. is the best! Best experience at a dealership to date. I will recommend him to our family and friends.

I call it my lemon drop

Many stupid problems -most recent headlights replaced. Holds condensation bad seals had mini fish tanks & no front lights. Prior problem transmission went at 42000 miles -also thermostat problem-. Off the bat. The purpose of getting car at 16000 mi was to not have surprises.

This would be the car for me if I just drove.

My father bought this car new and I inherited it. Had it for about 4 years. Ours was the base 2.4 L. I loved driving it once I was in it. If you are 6 ft or over you'll probably bonk your head a lot getting in. Even that was OK but if you want a roof rack or want to tow something forget it. This car is for getting from point A to point B and back. There are threaded holes intended for a GM roof rack but I learned that the plan for that rack was dropped. This car never let us down. Started every day in the winter and we never plugged in the block heater. Often -30 C. We put snows on it and maybe because of it's weight the Regal almost seemed happy going thru snowy conditions. Great handling car. Only selling it to a friend (which is meaningful) because we are getting an SUV. I know Buick will hate this, but if I were my father's age when he bought (82) it I buy another one in a minute.

Had this car for 8 years

Though I've had the car for 8 years, it only has 28K miles on it. So far the only thing that has had to be done was replace the battery after 5 years. Obviously gonna keep it.

Most reliable car I have owned

This is the most reliable car I have owned. I?ve had my 2011 Buick Regal for 2 years now and I have had no problems with it. I drive it to work everyday which takes me 30 minutes one way and drive it on vacation. It?s my everyday car. It is kind ve small. Not really kid friendly.i don?t have kids so not a problem. It?s really good on gas. The interior is really nice. Love everything about the inside besides the cup holders are kind of small. Outside is very nice too. Very happy to have this car as my everyday car. ( her name is Carrie)
