Buick Regal GS Reportedly Headed for Production

May 20, 2010 at 1:15 pm by Jake Holmes

We were pretty confident that the Buick Regal GS concept would make its way from auto shows to dealerships, and we now have a report that almost officially confirms it. GM executives told The Detroit News that the GS has been approved for production, although they didn’t specify when the car would launch. We think the GS will debut sometime next year.
If it follows in the concept car’s footprints—and it should, as the show car looked fully production-ready—the Regal GS will pack a 255-hp, 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine with all-wheel drive, as well as uprated brake and suspension components. We’re hoping this confirmation is the real deal, and we’ll relay the official word as soon as we get it.
What it is: A higher-performance version of the recently introduced 2011 Regal. A handsome body kit, 20-inch wheels, and larger brakes increase the GS’s sportiness quotient.

I've very happy to see the Regal GS brought back. I think it's going to make a fantastic car.

I agree, I think it will make a great car! It looks like a Buick Malibu, LOL. Which is a good thing, because I love the Malibu's!

I really fo like the GS, the turbo is a great feature that GM should be using more often, particularly if paired to a 5 or 6 speed transmission.

A 2 door would be a welcome addition, and personally I could see myself buying a turbo Malibu or GS coupe

I like the mechanical aspect of it, but the body lines just dont do it for me. It looks like something my parents would drive.
