Buick Regal Coupe GS Sport Concept

What if... Buick brought back the Regal coupe and made a few variations to appeal to most consumers on the market. In this scenario, as pictured here and other models on previous posts, the GS would be the most sport oriented of the Regal coupes. With a sport tuned suspension and a turbo charged V6 engine paired with either choice of a 10 speed automatic transmission or a 6 speed manual option. Theoretically, later there would be an even higher performance set of the regal coupes. That will be later discussed on another post in the future, that would make enthusiasts of this past model rejoice.
