All of us invested regarding 4 several hours driving of the front-wheel-drive Royal GS along with guide tranny as well as a good all-wheel-drive GS along with automated transmitting. Buick do have no Regals obtainable using the affordable eAssist two. 4L engine since it has already been relegated in order to backburner standing.
