The reviewer at txGarage drove the 270-horsepower turbocharged Regal GS and called it "exactly what I was craving after driving the standard Regal turbo," a bargain next to BMW and Audi models at similar money.

That GS badge on the trunk is doing real work. CarBuzz lays out what separates it from a standard Regal: a 2.0L turbo four making 270 hp and 295 lb-ft, a HiPer Strut front and 4-link rear suspension, and 19-inch alloys wearing P245/40R19 performance tires. Add the Brembo front brakes, four-wheel disc ABS, and Interactive Drive Control with GS, Sport and Touring modes, and you have a sedan that changes character depending on whether you're merging onto I-35 or covering ground on the way to the coast. AutoDetective's trim listing notes the GS came standard with ebony leather seating and heated front seats. Ours is white, with the six-speed automatic rather than the manual.

Now the plain numbers: 172,564 miles over thirteen years, which works out to roughly 13,274 a year — the profile of a car that spent its life driving, not sitting. We're asking $6,719.

At that mileage you should look closely, and we want you to. The Carfax vehicle history report is yours to read, and we'd genuinely rather you take the Regal to your own mechanic for a pre-purchase inspection before you decide. Put it on a lift, drive it, ask hard questions. We invite that because we expect the car to hold up to it, and because a used car you've had checked out is one you can stop wondering about.

When you're ready, the rest is easy. We have extended warranty options and GAP coverage if you want them, financing for every credit situation, and cash buyers are always welcome. No pressure, no runaround — just come drive it and see if the badge earns it for you.
