quoted for truth. With thinking like his perceptions will never be broken! The way Buick is going, I'm expecting alot of "Whoa that's a BUICK holy *****"

I'm 18. I'll probably, hopefully, be buying a new car in the next 5 years. My options are the Camaro, the ATS, this, and possibly a new Riviera. How fast has GM turned Buick around?

Clearly you do not know about Buick's proud history. They are the new class of world class. Wouldn't you rather drive a Buick?

Really is amazing how when good product comes so does the perception change quickly

Re: GMI's Regal Resource

What sucks is all the white trash suburbanites conservatives who are writing off GM as socialist **** right now will be driving Buicks as soon as it becomes cool to them in a few years.

UMM I'm not white trash and I am a conservative. Just because we disagree with how GM went about things does not mean we want it to fail.

I wasn't angry I was just saying, there are bad people on both sides , but most are just good people who look at things different. Don't get bogged down in ideology and look at people with labels. I know as a young person its easy to say those things about conservatives , but i know a lot of young liberals who grew up and became great conservatives. In the end the majority are all Americans who love life liberty and the pursuit of happiness, we just want to get there differently

Re: GMI's Regal Resource

It just annoys me, because I can already see it coming. We'll all stick with GM through all the **** about them being horrid, unreliable, inefficient, etc., and then the Toyota lovers will act like they loved GM all along.

Thats human nature and believe me it wont just be toyota people it will be the ones that talked poop all the time. Me in my whole life of owning cars only 4 were non GM an only two foreign out of my 13 vehicles. so when i criticize its only in a constructive manner.

Re: GMI's Regal Resource

I must say after Saturn made me mad 3 times when trying to buy the Astra I was going to break down by Feb. and buy one from someone. Now that I have seen this, at 32, I am planning on buying a Buick when it comes out. I don't have the age hang up thing so not an issue for me. Also I love Opel designs and wanted this car since I saw it in pictures but never really thought GM would bring it over without being dumbed down.

Also may I say I cannot wait to own an American car that is DI, Turbo, and a 4 banger with around 220HP. That just sounds perfect for a car of that size. I own a stick now so I want a smooth driving Auto and some Opel 19's on it in Black on Black.

Finally never before have I seen such a positive response to a GM product on different web sites. This lets me know I have to turn my order in as soon as they start taking them.

Yeah, the Insignia with the 2.0 DI Turbo 4x4 with a 6-MT is the best package, IMHO.

Re: GMI's Regal Resource

The North American fascia looks so much better than the Chinese one, and to top that it looks closer to the Opel Insignia, and no ugly fender vent! I really hope that this time around that GM is successful with this model, they really need it.

Re: GMI's Regal Resource

This looks better than LaCrosse and the weight and powertrains are just spot on.

I LIKE IT!

With oncoming Astra sized Buick this will be very competitive car line up, finally GM gets it. Just don't drag your feet now and don't dumb it down to compete with price.
