Looking forward to the Sportback Shootout which should have:

-Buick Regal

-BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe

-Audi A5/S5 Sportback

-Kia Stinger

Am I missing any, or is that all for the moment in this price range-ish?

...prepare to engage....D.

Packaging-wise, I think Buick mailed it in on this one. Not even paddles. Try as you might to compare this to something German, it’s just... not.

I would have this over a Camry, Sonota, Optima, and probably the Accord.

Looks good.

Why doesn’t this come with a manual?!

Also pricey when loaded and fairly heavy. Seems to be aimed at the same part of the market that the Stinger GT is targeting.

Is the cargo cover easily removable? Inquiring doggo need to know. Also bring back retractable cargo covers!!

I’m not a fan of the corner reflectors you guys have to add.

Opel.

Which is where Holden is going to be getting its cars from now. Although GM just sold Opel, so ....

Side marker lights though, not just reflectors. They have to have red ones at the back too. Legal here but rarely fitted.

I saw the new Regal up close at the Baltimore Auto Show and...not impressed. The trunk is tiny and the interior on the non-GS models is nothing to write home about.

Tiny compared to what? It has twice the cargo volume with the seats up compared to the average midsize sedan with a trunk. Put the seats down and even that volume doubles.

Agreed on the interior. The dash is a bit plain, and especially the non-GS gauge cluster.

C&D did a 3-way test of the 2.0T Stinger, A5 and 4GC this month. They had the BMW and Stinger ties for 2nd place and the Audi way ahead. Hopefully that means another with the Audi against the Buick and VW when it gets here.

GM sold Opel? My cousin (GM big shot) didn’t tell me. And that’s a badge that they should have been able to do something with, especially here. It could have replaced Pontiac as the “sporty” division, but oh well.

I guess they were sick of losing money on it.

Holden currently only gets the Astra and Commodore from Opel. Everything else comes from the US, Thailand, or Korea. It won’t be difficult to find a new manufacturing location for the Opels.
