I was really looking forward to driving this car, since I really liked the previous version of the Regal/Insignia.
And now it's a hatchback.
The one I have for this week is a FWD Essence model with a 2.0 Liter Turbo and 9 speed automatic.
So far, the ride is amazingly comfortable.
But the USB/CarPlay feature doesn't really work. As it is having a very hard time recognizing my phone... ( A problem I usually don't have)
I just got the car and will report on it next week.
Meanwhile I will try to answer questions you might have about it.

Comparison with theMazda 6 please.
So far the engine is nicer. Very smooth and quiet at all time.
And the back seat is roomier than the Mazda.
But somehow I can't get the infotainment to recognize the phone. CarPlay starts, once in a while, but stops after a couple of minutes. Then it switches to Bluetooth. As it says no phone is connected (Although it is)
Frustrating.... But it could be due to an iOS 11 Bug.
I don't think so. I use Android Auto in my '17 Ford Edge and every once in awhile it won't recognize my phone when I connect the cable. I unconnect it and reconnect it and it works. I think Buick just needs to do a better job of app integration.
How's the handling and steering feel, good feedback?
Does it DRIVES like à Buick is supposed to drive? I have a Buick Encore, and to switch to a base Regal, I'd have to add 200$ more each month, I really would ask for a smoother and quieter ride for the money... I do not want to get a stiff ride...
I'm really looking forward to seeing these on the road in person.
Interested in highway mpg, steady state 75mph, etc. Thank you!
I just got back from a FWD drive and got up to 35MPG average. Mostly around 70.
(It is officially rated at 32)
So far, this is really a great car.
VINCE, I don't know what your deal is trashing the Lexus UX. It's a great compact design.
