2011 Buick Regal to start at $26,995

The 2011 Buick Regal will start at $26,995 for the CXL model when it goes on sale in the spring.

The base car is powered by a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that makes 182 hp. For a bit more power--and fun--enthusiasts can upgrade to the turbo model, which starts at $29,495. That model has a 2.0-liter, 220-hp engine.

Look for solid fuel economy of 30 mpg on the highway for the base car, and 29 mpg for the turbo, Buick says. A CX trim will be added for the 2012 model year.

All prices include a $750 shipping charge.
