  • Regal GS - 2002 Buick Regal
    By -

    In the five months since July 2003, I have driven this car on one 7,000 mile and one 2,000 mile trip in every conceivable mix of traffic, road surface and weather (including some high elevation snow). It handles very predictably under all conditions, has plenty of quickly available power to handle passing or mountain driving, and returns excellent gas mileage. On one occasion, I drove just under 1,000 miles in one day, with another driver relieving me for only about 100 miles. The car was comfortable and not tiring, even with the excess miles/day. Fuel economy hovers around 30 miles/gallon on highway trips.

    With the Joseph Aboud package, the Regal LS V6 looks and feels like a Lexus ES, but costs about $7K less.

  • Power - 2002 Buick Regal
    By -

    A lot of people have said how much they love the power of this car. You can only appreciate it if you drive it for yourself. But first drive everything else in its class. You will be amazed by the power of the supercharged engine. The amazing thing is how smooth the car is. It is the perfect blend of power and smooth ride.

    After trading in our 1989 Buick Regal which gave us 13 great years, we had confidence that this new Buick would give us another 13 good years. They have really updated and improved on the 2002 Regal compared yo ours. They drive is nice Alot of power and handles well on the road. Love the radio (Monsoon) with the controls on the wheel. Dual air controls are also great! Great car to have.

  • Bullet Proof - 2002 Buick Regal
    By -

    I bought a used 98 Regal GS two years ago. Since then, absolutely nothing has gone wrong with it . . . not one nickle spent on corrective maintenance. Its my stealth car: looks like a rental car on the outside with the torque-monster 3.8 SC engine inside. Handling is not sports-car-like but is perfectly adequate in the real urban/suburban world.

  • Suprisingly good! - 2002 Buick Regal

    The car is simple yet elegant. Its functional beyond most means and has styling that is conservative yet will remain fresh for years to come.
