Buick regal 2007 chinese edition
Hi Guys,
I am living in China and so I bought a chinese BUICK REGAL build 2007. NOW I modified the rims, tyres and exhaust. BUt I want to do more coilovers, engine tuning. But I do not know which parts are fitting ? because in china they dont sell much tuning parts for that kind of car...can somebody help ?
Best Regards
Thomas

Welcome. Are you able to take pictures of your car cause I'm trying to see what they labeled Regal at that time frame over there? We have Lacrosse and Lucerne around that time and I know GM likes to kill off a model here and continue it in anther country.

Welcome to the forum!
Merc: a quick google yielded this:

Looks like the NA Regal/Century, except for that front end. I actually kinda like it..
EDIT: Found a video.
Looks so much nicer than the NA spec Regal/Century..

No DOT restrictions so the front end always looks better for the overseas versions. I like that interior as well. I will have to ask around if they kept the same suspension setup as stateside.
This is what wiki said for the engines.

Attached you find two pics of the car, I try to shot some nicer ones in the next time... could you tell me which suspension and feathers fit? ANd is there a chance to tune the engine ? With the rest I am very happy , it is a nice cruiser ....just more power would be cool and a better handling (suspension)....THANKS TO ALL ... VERY GOOD FORUM !!!

What size motor is in it? Can you get some pictures of the motor and suspension? I can't even begin to picture how your car is set up compared to the North American Regal/Century..
It looks good by the way. I love the green underglow
