2011 Buick Regal on the lot in the wild


Recommended Posts

If I remember right, Parson's claims to be the highest volume Buick dealer in New England. I do like the grille on the Lacrosse, just not the rest of the changes.

The Regal has a transmission from China.......is that a first for a large American car?

Not sure on the trannys.

I just found the new 2010 HHR SS came with 2.0 Turbo's built in Gemany vs the past ones built in Spring Hill TN. The Trannys were also from Saab.

The Lecrosse grill looks like a poor mans CTS V series. The rest looks like the poor side of town. I am ok with the grill since I was never a big fan of the big tooth look. The wheel and pin stripe need to go. The wheels look smaller than the OE wheels.

While the US Regal is more of an Insignia than a Chinese Regal, the 2.4 liter Ecotec/Hydramatic powertrain is one area where the US car is completely different from the German car.

However, the optional 2.0T engine with the Aisin transmission (probably from Japan) is native to the Insignia. I prefer the Regal in lighter colors, btw.
