I still don't know how the universe didn't implode when they put a supercharger in a vehicle who's average buyer demographic was 92.3 years old.

In high-school a friends parents had 2 cars in the yard. A brand new suburban, and a 2 year old Buick Regal GS. His parents were concerned he would pile too many people into the suburban for trips to McDonald's at lunch time... so they would only allow him to drive the Regal... yeah! What kinda trouble could we possibly get into on a half hour lunch in a *brown* sedan...

I drive a '99 Buick Regal GS.
My family bought it new in 2000.
It is a hand-me-down from my parents.
The tail of the L on the Regal script badge is missing on one side like this one.
It still has the factory Monsoon sound system.
It's turning under 2000 rpm at 70.
I'm *told* the fuel pump shuts off at 112.
I'm pretty sure my boost gauge doesn't dick around with me like that.
Yes, my dash display quit for several years. It's four tiny resistors and one giant one-piece dash panel to get at. Don't pay $700 for a gauge cluster if you know someone who can solder properly.
My moonroof brackets broke. The repair kit costs $150. The dealer will try to charge you $2100 for a complete new assembly. Don't do it. I have enough regret hiring a shop, because they fixed it for a lot less, but damaged everything else they touched. You can probably do it yourself if you're any more handy than I am.
I took off my beauty cover before I let the dealer do the recall repair.
It's just about to turn over 130, 000 miles.
It does Buick things. The interior in particular does Buick things.
Yes, I have autocrossed it and survived.
Yes, I took it to Radwood last year.
It's worthless.
I like it.

"Guess who I- *LOOK AT ME*. Guess who I am?!"
Terrifying Dad.

One of my friends had one of these the police showed up to his house one day asking his dad how a Buick could smoke tires for 2 blocks

Never half ass two things. Whole ass one thing

"Cool Dad" needs to be a regular feature on "Meh Cars" featured on RCR.

GM: We're going to take the engine cover because catches fire.
Grandma: Put it on I like it, I don't care of it catches fire.

"Grandpa smiles like George Burns on ecstacy".

This, is why I watch this channel.

[retromemories]

My aunt had one of these. Still had no idea it was a sleeper.

Thank you Mr. Regular for existing and reviewing these bland old regular cars. I sincerely rather watch a Buick Regal flashback poop jokes included than any generic 2019 supercar review. You are giving "regular cars" a voice that would otherwise be forgotten completely in this day and age as just an uninteresting ripple in the automotive timeline.

I love boosted 3800s. I have a supercharged bonneville with a few mods, it's basically a comfy sofa on wheels with a rocket strapped to it.

[FirstMetalHamster]

"Cool Dad" is my second favorite character, right after "UNCLE PULLL

[pauloluciomachadodebrito]

I like the smoothness of these models
Today every sedan needs to be sporty and agressive

3800 Series II, Supercharged!! Can't remember the year, but the 3800 was voted one of top ten engines in the world. Looking back, Regal GS, Park Avenue Ultra, Bonneville SSEi, Grand Prix GTP, Buick 88 LSS, Buick Reviera, think only in Canada, all with the Supercharger. It first went from 170, 205, 240 and I think 260 horsepower over it's years. An awesome and reliable engine, with or without Supercharging. :-D

For a brief moment I felt like Mr. Regular was my dad, and it was good.

20 year old car ....holy shit. In a few more years this will qualify for Collector's are we getting so old....

[JoshTheBassist]

I work as a buick tech in retirement country FL. every word is spot on.

As I sit here in a hotel in the Poconos, eating my cheap fast food and watching Regular Cars, I miss my 1992 Buick Park Avenue Ultra with a Series I 3.8L engine. I remember refueling with Premium only, and wishing I had a Park Ave from a couple years later so I'd have the superior supercharger. The Buick 3.8 has always been my favorite American V6 and this video doesn't disappoint, but the food and winter weather sure do. 50% of the reason I watch RCR is the Pennsylvania cred, but this Regal gives me peepee envy. I miss that Buick, and perhaps one day I will drive one again.

The coffin car comment really hit home 😂 my grandmother got a 2000 LeSabre and had it until her death 🤷‍♂️
