As many of you know the 80's were a sad era for performance cars and enthusiast alike. With newly strict EPA and fuel consumption regulations in play, Many of the beloved performance cars that were pumped out of Detroit were now dwindled to sub 200 horsepower economy vehicles. With vehicles barely producing enough power to pass a child riding a Dyno Competition GT bicycle, something needed to be done. Buick decided to take on this task with its second generation upscale mid-sized sedan, The Buick Regal. Leaving the butt fucking ugly 1st round of second generation Regals "1978-1980" in the dust. Buick gave the Regal a face lift in 1981 with a sleeker and more aerodynamic profile, helping make it possible for the car to compete on the NASCAR racing circuit. The sloping hood and nose of the car made it the favorite of several NASCAR teams. Richard Petty drove one to victory in the 1981 Daytona 500, and the car won a majority of the 1981 and 1982 seasons races and won the NASCAR manufacturers title in 1981 and 1982. V8's for street use were still available, but had shrunk to 265 cu in (4.3 L) (1980 and 1981 only, Pontiac built), and the V6 was rapidly gaining popularity. In 1982, a new Century appeared on the front-wheel drive A-body, but the former rear-wheel drive Century sedan and wagon were not discontinued. These models were simply rebadged as Regals, and for the first time the name appeared on a full model lineup. The wagon was discontinued after 1983, and the sedan dropped from the lineup the next year. From 1986 to 1987, the 5.0 L 307 V8 was available as an option. The 3.8 2-bbl V6 was standard. The 200-4R overdrive transmission was an option with either engine.
In 1982, the Regal Grand National debuted, which was named for the NASCAR Winston Cup Grand National Series, This limited production Pile of shit came with a naturally aspirated 4.1 L V6 engine with 125 hp (93 kW) at 4000 rpm and 205 lb·ft (278 N·m) of torque at 2000 rpm "No Fucks Given". For 1983, there was no Grand National. The Sport Coupe model was renamed the T-Type; 3732 were produced (190 hp (140 kW) at 1600 rpm and 280 lb·ft (380 N·m) of torque at 2400 rpm) "No Fucks Given". In 1984 and 1985 the Grand National returned in all black paint. The turbocharged 3.8 L became standard and was refined with sequential fuel injection, distributor-less computer controlled ignition, Non intercooled top mount turbo, and boasted 200 hp (150 kW) at 4400 rpm and 300 lb·ft (407 N·m) of torque at 2400 rpm. Only 5,204 Turbo Regals were produced that year, only 2000 of which were Grand Nationals, "Ehh Some Fucks Given". In 1986, a modified engine design with air-air intercooling boosted the performance even further to a specified 235HP @ 4000 rpm and 330 lb-ft torque at 2400 rpm, "Now We Are Getting Somewhere". Then in 1987, performance reached 245 hp (183 kW) and 355 lb·ft (481 N·m) of torque, "Fuck Yea Bitch". Now we have a V6 Black as a BBC Shitting on all unsuspecting V8 owners like a fat kid with diarrhea. Lets take a moment and look at this Fat diarrhea shredding BBC of 80's glory owned by Phil Calabrese of Chicago, IL.
