2012 4dr Sedan turbocharged 270hp 2.0L I4
6-speed manual FWD		 Whenever someone asks what car I bought, I say a 'Buick Regal GS'. I then get asked, "What are you, 70 years old? My grandpa drives a Buick!" That stigma will last for a while. But trust me, nothing screams "old person" about the GS. see full Buick Regal review
