Buick

The Buick Regal is a line of mid-size cars marketed by Buick since 1973. Serving as the premium mid-size/intermediate car of the Buick product range for nearly its entire production, the Regal initially served as the divisional counterpart of the Pontiac Grand Prix and Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme; since the late 2000s, the model line has been derived from the Opel Insignia. The Regal also serves as the basis of the high-performance Grand National, Gran Sport , and Buick GNX coupes.
Through its production, the Regal has been marketed under a wide variety of body styles, including two-door coupes and four-door sedans , along with a 5-door liftback sedan and a 5-door station wagon; the latter was the first Buick station wagon marketed since the retirement of both the Century and Roadmaster Estates after 1996. The turbocharged LD5 3. 8L V6 used in the second generation was used to showcase the motorsports presence of the brand; though offered with other vehicles , the turbocharged engine is most commonly associated with the Regal. During the 1990s, the V6 regained forced induction, with a supercharger replacing the turbocharger....
