Overview & Reviews
New alloy wheels, a standard body-colored grille on the GS and two new colors, Gold Metallic and Sterling Silver debut. Inside, there's now a split-folding rear seat and an optional side airbag for the driver on leather-lined Regals.
- Powerful supercharged V6 in GS, comfortable front seats, uncluttered looks.
- Elderly image, uninspired interior design, leather has low-buck feel.

Decent ride, lots of repairs though - 2000 Buick Regal
By faststrat02 - September 10 - 8:27 pmWhere to begin. Pros first: -Car drives wonderfully on the highway, sometimes see 28-29 MPG. Not bad for a 3.8 -A/C is ice cold (when it decides to work) -3.8L V6 generally is a solid motor Cons: -Window regulator is out on passenger right side (common for this car). Unfortunately, Ive had to put quite a bit of money into this car. Where to start: -Struts all around/upper strut mount -Replaced both valve cover gaskets, tensioner assembly -Tie rod ends replaced @ 80k -Replace Hub bearings/front axle (both sides) -City gas mileage is horrendous. Ive yet to see over 20mpg. Average is 15-17. Good car for highway travel, but NOT ideal for commuting.

Never Buy Again! - 2000 Buick Regal
By pss1175 - March 19 - 9:35 pmI bought this car used with 40,000 miles on it. I bought an extended warranty and Im glad I did. Nothing but problems. All window regulators replaced, HVAC control head, both rear wheel speed sensors. Now has an intake manifold gasket leaking and the ABS pump and EBCM has to be replaced, warranty is up so I am trading. I will never buy again.

disappionted - 2000 Buick Regal
By vsal - March 20 - 2:00 amToo many major repairs: steering rack and air pump at 55K, rear wheel hub assembly and wiring short at 60K, dashboard light switch at 72K and transmission trouble (unresolved as yet because it will require removal and disassembly) at same time. Also, some weather stripping comes loose as does one rear door inside panel.

Drivetrain problems - 2000 Buick Regal
By The Car man - February 28 - 2:00 amI am disappointed in the lack of dealer support and by the transmission problems that I have experienced. The dealer always seems to be too busy to help. The transmission is having problems at 76k miles. The interior has been plauged by poor craftmentship (the flooring has come undone multiple times). Also, the gas guage has quite working and the dealer stated that it would cost $600 to fix. This car has not been a bargin.
