Buick Regal keeps an estimated 62% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #175 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Buick Regal retains an estimated 62% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #175 of 530 cars we track. That is 2 points above the 60% five-year average for Sedan in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
The loss does not land all at once here: the Buick Regal sheds about 8% in year one and keeps going at much the same rate. From roughly $25,370 it falls to around $15,729 by year five — a five-year loss near $9,641, about $5.28 a day in depreciation.
There is no single sweet spot on the Buick Regal: it gives up a similar share of its value every year rather than falling off a cliff, so how long you keep it matters more than what age you buy it at. Explore the full year-by-year curve, trims, and true cost of ownership in the Model Lab above.
