Ive seen a white 78 regal parked on the street several times in rhe past few months and its been gone since so must be driven.

Its weird how rare now any of the 78-80 gbodies are compared to 80's ones. I like the montes and cutlass not a fan of the regals or gp's those years.

Maybe they just realized how ugly they were and junked em. And to be fair, the 81-87 Regals had 4 more years of production. As others have said, really the only reason to own one is if you fancy the sub 200hp hot air carb'd turd-bo V6.
I would like to have one, in black (like this one
) if only to say that I have one.
We crushed 3 of them at the family yard a light blue one like my Cutlass a red one and a green one and that was just the turbo cars nobody wanted them and iron was paying.. who knew

People seem to like the later (true G body cars) over the early (technically A body) varieties. Personally, I've always been partial to the early cars. In fact, its long been a dream of mine to own one of every marque.
