- Опубліковано 9 бер 2012
- Hello and welcome to Saabkyle04! UA-cam's largest collection of automotive variety! In today's video, we will take an up close and personal in depth look at the 2012 Buick Regal GS. During this presentation, we will take a 1st person look at what the vehicle is all about beginning with the start up, performance data, fuel economy, the occasional track data, and build quality. Also, I will teach you how to use most of the interior and exterior features in a detailed fashion, that before, you could only get from going to a dealership yourself! Throughout the video, I will highlight key styling and unique differences about the vehicle, any available options, and of course it would not be an enthusiast car video without the good ole engine portion with rev and exhaust note with interior and exterior perspectives. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE CHANNEL SEE BELOW: In this channel you will find in depth reviews/tour of automobiles from all over the world, presented in a more detailed fashion than ever before. Basically, this gives the viewer the chance to view the most detailed 1st person look you can get without going to an actual dealer yourself! Every video is consistent in the way I present so viewers know what to expect in my presentations. I treat every vehicle with the same respect whether a 1960 Chevrolet Impala SS or the 2012 Lamborghini Aventador. I film all types of vehicles from past, present, and future while broadening the knowledge of the automotive enthusiast. You will see everything from vintage, brand new, exotic, mainstream, old, etc. I am very proud of this channel and have built it up from amateur videos years ago to what you see today. I wanted to share my love for the automotive world with the rest of the world. Be sure to explore the massive video variety, have fun and enjoy The Driver's Seat of UA-cam!

In germany this is called a Opel Insignia OPC and I think it's by far the best car they've ever build !
Great review Kyle !
Ive been watching vids of the old GS's all day, and now you upload this
Yes
Hello Kyle. I'm a 17 years old boy from Romania, Europe, and I'm watching your car videos for about 2 years. I just want to say you that I am a very passionate for cars just like you and I appreciate what you do and I wish that maybe oneday, I will make such more videos about cars just like you, but here in Romania we don't have such more car dealers. Anyway, we can get the driver license only after we celebrate 18 years old and that's pretty annoying. Luck still!
Man, you're videos have come a long way. Keep up the good work!
Glad to see most are smart enough to recognize this as an Opel or Vauxhall. I like it a lot.
My father has this car. He's only like 40. But sometimes I get to drive it and this car is FAST and you can hear the turbo whistle! love this car we have it in the red tintcoat
Okay that's final. This is going to be my next car. LOVE IT!
Thanks for reviewing this one man.
How did you like it? Thinking about buying one
@@brandonprouse9188me too now🙏🏾
I'm 23 and want a Buick. Been loyal since 16 and my 98 Regal will never die! :D
Thank you for the video on the Regal GS, Kyle! Good job!
I have a 2012 regal GS 6 Speed Manual transmission and I am 22 years old. awesome car, I highly recommend it. very comfortable, fun, and the power is great.
+Brandon Trongale is it reliable though? any repair problems? im thinking of buying one
Any problems?
I love your vids man keep it up!!!!!!!!!
Nice choice Kyle, great job as usual!
Great Video! I liked the edited-in narration mixed with the on-camera. A feature packed vehicle and a 6-speed manual!! How'd you manage to catch Heart's "Crazy On You" twice in the same video??? LOL.
Really loving this car !
Yes Please, I want one. What a a sharp car. Can't wait until we get one at the dealership. Being a lot attendant has its perks.
wow never really been a fan of buick but i am very impressed with this and the buick verano.
Nice American luxury with a dose of German engineering. Good video, as always Kyle. Keep up the good work!
does the 2012 have the LED running lights? I couldn't tell from this vid
I love these GS's!
Great video as always Kyle!
One of the best Buick design ever this car design is stunning I love it to bad I can’t afford to buy it
What an invigorating engine note!
Had one as a rental about 4 weeks ago. Very nice.
I'm 14 and I want a Buick Regal. In my mind this and the Hyundai Sonata are the two prettiest cars on the road, but I'm leaning more toward this as my first car.
Plus, it's always fun when someone who doesn't know about remote start walks by the car when you start it remotely. Their usual reaction is "wtf ghosts"
Let me remind you of a Buick in the eighties called a Grand National, which continues to be competitive even today. Ground breaking extreme performer in its time, affordable and marketed to younger buyers. It happened before, it can happen again.
Plus, the 1987 Buick Grand National was extremely popular with the FBI.
Great overview of a great car! P.S> Why did you cover the model of the Canon SLR with tape???
Awesome video kyle
This car looks great. If I had the money I would buy one.
Wouldn't you get a better ride quality and possible better 0-60 time with the 19's vs. the 20's due to more sidewall and less rolling inertia?
Buick has come light years forward in terms of aesthetics and innovation over the last 5 or so years!
Awesome Video Kyle!! =)
best auto evaluator
thank you
Wheels look amazing.
I just love the ports on the hood.
Kyle, love your videos. Have you considered getting a lavalier microphone that you can wear on your shirt when you make your videos? It would greatly enhance the sound plus if you put a windscreen on it it would cut out most of the wind thats troubled some of your videos.
Love it!
the Buick looks really nice, i like the vid
nice vid & design! :)
what is the grey piece on the air intake at 4:41 on the right side? is it an anti theft piece or something?
Great video, neat car.
I had a love hate relationship with my 89 Buick Regal Custom. It ran flawlessly, always started in any condition, had a good engine, but everything else went wrong.
Buick stepping up their game.
dam thats a high quality vehicle right there
You are correct. This Buick is a rebadged Opel Insignia which was designed and engineered in Germany. Some people in the comments are calling it the American answer to the 3 series and A4. But it's not, not by a longshot. Still though, highest quality Buick ever.
Nice! But gotta love the classic G-Body Turbo.
Is it me or is this Opel Insignia OPC with Buick badge.
the insignia opc has 321 hp and uses a 2.8 turbo engine, and is awd, but yes pretty much the rest of it is
is the chevy cruze built on the same platform?
@saabkyle04 : Your welcome, Kyle ! I have driven many Insignias but the OPC is really the only one I would like to review on day. In germany the car has 325 bhp, which makes it the fastest road car Opel has ever made...Greetings from germany
Does the GS-button turn the instruments red?
Love the rims
I have an autostart because I live in Alaska and it gets to -40 and sometimes colder. I let it run for about 5 minutes before I start to drive around.
Kyle,please try and do a review of the new ml 350.
Opel Insignia OPC
I'm pretty sure that the brake lights and rear turn signals are where the rear fog lights are in the Euro model, because they are oddly placed.
I see where you are coming from drew. I'm 26 and drive a bmw 3 series. I am looking into the Regal GS and heavily considering it due to the fact the up keep i'm sure is much less than a BMW. I will say I haven't had the chance to test drive one so does it handle like a true German car. I would imagine it won't feel like a BMW but if comes close I would deff choose the GS.
Kyle How is the Roadmaster holding up?
hey kyle.Why don't you change your Roadmaster with this?
they should really make an updated grand national with recent 3800 engines and turbos with this regal body, would be an amazing car
@saabkyle04 Thanks mate for your answer. I just wanted to say that i love your videos and keep up the good work. Greetings from the Netherlands
beautiful
love the car
kyle could you please make a review about the 2012 NISSAN PATROL if you could also answer if you can or cant please.
@MGazT The hazards come on automatically if there is an accident for example
Kyle...what are your future car purchasing plans? Thinking about a Mustang again maybe after you graduate? :)
What a cool car. Everything about it makes sense for an adult owner. That glove-box will probably fit a Glock with a 33 round magazine, and five 1911's. The speakers in the trunk seem to be pretty beefy... The wheels are cool. The exhaust is neat, the overall design is neat, really.. I'm 6'2, so I can't say I dig the space, but otherwise, it's a really neat car!
The dodge v8 R/T is sick man i got one today started it it was like a muscle, i think it is but its a sedan.
true. a good mix of American and German technology and engineering
@PRODRIFTER97 Because it is a Opel Insignia. Its just assembled by Buick for US market.
Really want one of these! The Vauxhall Insignia VXR though, it sounds better :p
This Engine has a flatter power band than the 2.8 in the OPC, we had it on the SRX and it was peaky and guzzled gas, not to mention we are getting a power upgrade when the regal gets the malibu and ATS' all new Ecotec II 2.0 T
I'm deciding between this or the Subaru WRX. My grandmother worked for GM so with employee discounts they will cost about the same. Tough decisions..
my favorite car....
I think this car's central multimedia with a lot of buttons, its the best ideal for a car's central multimedia, less screen and more buttons..
is buick and opel belong together? because that model really look like the opel insignia.
Kyle, I think you made a slight editing error at 8:11 and 8:33. You started talking about the braking distance, then finally told the braking distance after you stated the MPG. Just thought you'd like a heads up =P
Vauxhall Insignia SRI, Middle Trim Level, add on options so it is as Equipped as the Buick Regal GS and according to The Vauxhall Website as of 12June2013 you are looking at Paying £30,704.00
buick's sure come a long way
@saabkyle04 do a review between both regals ,some are made in germany ,and some are made in canada ,the ones with the front bumper license plate cutout is made in germany ,the solid front bumpers are the canadian built regals
juz asking... wtf is the Kony 2012??!
LOL , dude im 18 and i will most likely buy this car, i mean have you seen it in person? its awesome, its elegant, its "kinda sporty" its freaking awesome, i think Buicl wont have any problems bringing younger audience to buy their cars
Time to trade in that roadmaster Kyle!
@PATjA15 i thought it could've been that but it really offsets the symmetry in the front design.. not a fan lol.
Nice
19 City 27 high way? How does it manage such an inefficiency?
The new Mustang V6 Premium gets 19 city with the 305 HP (35 more) 3.7L V6.
Beauuuutiful car
Does this car have a rearview backup camera?
if you buy a 2014 and up yes it does.
@TheGetawayer We also have it in France. But OPC is not common at all here, you mostly see 2.0 CDTI 130 hp. Great car, but I heard they had reliability problems.
in EU yes it is
but in US is Buick Regal GS
and in UK is Vauxhall Insignia
I sw the picture, and I was like hellll nooo! that's the insignia.. I saw you're comment and I was like, damn I'm not the first to notice.
Great vid, Kyle. It must've been rather breezy that day, huh? Lot of V.O. Nice car, but it looks like there is room for improvment. engine/mileage figures hurt the overall package. Also, first time I've seen Pirelli (excuse the spelling) tires on a Buick... from the factory, interesting.
In Europe is the opel insignia OPC and in the UK is the vauxhall insignia VXR
@TechFanatic555 I just asked because in my country you can get fine for letting your car run without driving it right away
I've followed all your videos on UA-cam, it's better when you attach subtitle for videos, thank you :D
best buy in this class
Hey Kyle, could you please tell me your height?
@saabkyle04 please test bugatti veyron or the new mclaren mp4-12.
@commander316 the European versions do. The Vauxhall Insignia VXR/Opel Insignia OPC has 4WD and about 320bhp ish
buick regal = opel insignia in europe (except the UK, there it's called vauxhall). the OPC is a high performance insignia with a 325 hp V6 bi-turbo.
@mrwilk12 No, it's not the OPC. The Regal GS is front wheel drive and only has 275 hp.
