I was thinking about this earlier today while I was trying to find the stock specs on a G8 GT. I think we should make a link on the site home page leading to all the specs (hp, torque, 1/4 mile, 0-60 times, etc.) and maybe a few of the competitors for comparison. This way anyone who is looking for the stock specs could find them on here and also be able to compare the vehicle to some other vehicle like a like year Maxima or something. Also maybe include specs on the PA and the new Regals.

I would be willing to help gather the information or help create this somehow. I don't know much about creating web pages but I would help how I could.

With the info from Chris, Bob, and Jack this deserves to be a sticky. Maybe a moderator can move this to general info and sticky it for us.

I am changing the title to "stock regal specs and information" in hopes people will continue to post good information like they did as we come across it.

Here is one of the original buick regal gs commercial for our gen
