2011 Buick Regal Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Sedan turbocharged 270hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD	Major seven hour trip in total comfort for both of us. Not one ache or pain or "I gotta get out of this car" see full Buick Regal review

2011 Buick Regal Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Sedan turbocharged 270hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD	Since the car came from Opel (EU), it is naturally made for smaller fold. The rear is comfortable, just a little lacking in legroom at times. see full Buick Regal review
