Could there be a Buick Regal GS in the future? Only time will tell…
The new 2011 Buick Regal is one heck of a good looking car. While it’s basically a re-badge of the Open Insignia, that is not a bad thing in the slightest because the Insignia has been a hit across the pond. What many people are asking is if its possible for the United States to get a more powerful version of the Regal, maybe based on the Insignia OPC that features 325 horsepower, AWD and a six-speed manual transmission. Only time will tell, but a quote captured by Car and Driver from Bob Lutz himself had the letters “GS” (for Grand Sport) and “335 horsepower” in the same sentence.

Welcome to our 600th post!! For our party we would like a Buick Regal GS please!!!
The site is rapidly approaching its one year anniversary and we are proud to announce that this is our 600th post!!! To celebrate, we are asking…no begging General Motors to PLEASE bring the Buick Regal to the U.S. with a performance version named…whatever you want. Autoblog has suggested the Regal GS, built on the same platform as the Opel Insignia OPC pictured above. Call your Senator, Representative, local neighborhood association president, the babysitter, just call anyone who can make this happen!
