From its beginnings as a concept car at the 2010 Detroit Auto Show, the 2012 Buick Regal GS has held the automotive world captive. It's a turbo Buick Regal, and that brings to mind the old G-body Regals with its big turbo, rear-wheel drive and box-it-came-in styling.
But the 2012 Regal GS is also a thoroughly modern, turbocharged Buick with a 255-horsepower, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with direct injection, variable valve timing, a six-speed manual transmission and straight-off-the-boat European looks that should get every red-blooded car guy, for perhaps the first time in his life, to take a serious look at Buick.
And that's exactly the point.
