So I found this gem in the parking lot of the local Costco parking lot today.. Nobody was in the car so I pretty much had all kinds of access to take pictures. I'm not exactly sure what it is.. Wife thinks it's a refreshed Buick Regal or Verano. Got any guesses?

Hmm I'd say Regal, but it's hard to tell. Looks like it's got a pretty on–trend design, although it doesn't look like anything spectacular.

Whatever the Buick version of a Malibu is. Either way, they will dominate the used car lots here in the hood in 5 years. 6000K HID kits and chome wheel sales will stay stable.

You would be too if you came out of the factory knowing the Avenir wouldn't be joining you on the showroom floor.

I was going to say the lines were awfully Hyundai looking.

Buick Malibu is the Regal.

My guess would be either a Verano or Regal since their respective Chevy models (Cruze, Malibu) are about to be redesigned.

Yeah looks about Regal sized. I hope it's just the camo but it looks rather chunky. Any pics of the interior? I could give you a definite answer then.

That would be the next-gen Buick Verano. I believe that China's replacing their version of the Verano (the Excelle GT) with this car (sold as the Verano), and introducing a smaller sedan for the Excelle GT nameplate. That's what I understand from this .

Nope. Sorry. I didn't want to get caught and have them asking me to delete pictures.

Wow this car looks really plain and boring. I wonder if the next-gen Verano will be available with the 2.0T and a stick.

Both the Verano and Regal are .ore or less rebadged Opel's. There are new spy shots of the new Opel Astra, so I'm guessing this Buick will be the Buick version (Verano). The grille is clearly different though.

Oh, I know what it is!

Fucking hideous. The character line is meh, the front end is promising, the rear is bland as shit, and the greenhous is economy car incarnate. Nope and, additionally, hell nope.
