If I may. The Regal GS is not underpowered in the least. It’s the fact it’s FWD and can’t get the power to the ground. Yes, we all wish the GS would have a turbo 6, but it doesn’t. This is the new Buick which is trying to emulate the Europeans with high output, small displacement engines.

On another note. You may have test driven one, but unless you have been behind the wheel of one for 6,734 miles like my current ode meter is reading, you have no clue as to the potential of this car. And if you think that straight line speed is everything, you’re no enthusiast. Handling comes into play as well, and that’s where this car shines. Also note, bye bye warranty as I have just ordered the Trifecta tune for this car. I believe it is good 300hp and 330lb ft of torque.
