Not bad for a buick. That should keep them selling in China.

heres the full 10min review on the regal plus a interview with a old nonna.

.

this buick if it makes it to NA is outstanding in every way. i love the interior. i wish that those seats make it into the camaro some how.

I heard they are building the car in Germany the first year, then it will go to Canada for production. I have also heard this car is barely even a re-badged Opel. They are changing hardly anything. #3 maybe you can speak more to that, or HeatheR. GM....go the whole 100% on this car seats and ALL!

Yes, first year production will be at the Russelheim, Germany Opel plant. It'll transition over to Oshawa for the second year of production, which is also when we can expect any GS model.

Well the car's not officially a go, so no official word yet on anything. Post #82 has a link to the Motor Trend article where they talk to the engineer. They were pretty specific though on it being the 4 cylinder because it met performance goals and at better mileage.

For now, no V6s in any Regal, although that's still being evaluated.

This GS concept really is still a concept, so things may change.
