    I'm 23 and have owned mine for 3 yrs now. Always wanted a 96 impala ss and a grand national. Didn't get my 96 but an 05 ss for a daily driver(close enough) and my gn show car! Got it stripped to metal and re-painted last year. I always wounded how many people think its daddy's car!

    Bought mine when I was 18 years old, I am now 22. It is by far the most popular car out of all my friends cars and I don't see myself getting rid of it for anything. Most of the kids around here are either riding around in rice or fox body mustangs, people are very surprised when they see someone my age driving one of these cars.

    I was 27 when I bought my car 6 years ago, and I bought the car I rode in when I was 10 years old. I told the guy then I was going to buy it someday, and one day he called me. End of story, and I'll never get rid of it. Just trying to keep my eyes out for the next one so I can have a stocker and then turn this one into a race car.

    Bought mine about 4yrs ago and now I'm 28. I always wanted one since I was 16 but I couldn't afford it back then. Love it and always will.

    Got my first regal when I was 18, lost that rust battle but that planted the GN seed. 6 months later I was pickling up my 1987 GN and hopefully it should be painted and on the road in a month or two.

    I was 23 when I bought my first GN in 1990. Goes to show what sort of product Buick needs to offer to lower the average age of buyers from geriatric to young & strapping. :D I guess they're trying with the current Turbo Regal.
