Case in point – 2010’s Buick Regal popped up on Facebook – will you confirm request? The photo (seen below) was posted on a Buick fan page and has sparked controversy among online GM buffs. Whether or not an actual fan or someone working for Buick Public Relations posted it is up for debate. Still, what a darn nice shot!

Spy shots of automobiles and car concepts are online all the time – almost as widely available as celebrity upskirts on WWTDD. But the cars, usually caught during testing or at a press event, are disguised to look like other/previous year models. With the help of camera phones, tiny pocket cams and online forums, early “naked” vehicle shots are escaping faster then you can say lawsuit!

But it’s not all bad news, and as far as we’ve heard General Motors isn’t about to sue FB for any infringement. Sites like Facebook and Twitter should be embraced more then they already are for use in automotive PR – and frankly it’s great to catch some early car buyer reaction, before the final screws are put to the dealers when trying to push a sale.

Back in ‘05 The Regal was replaced by Buick LaCrosse. The last 2004 Buick Regal came off the assembly line on June 1, 2004. According to Jalopnik: Now it would appear it’ll be back and as we told you back in August when Lutz let slip this tasty piece of news to Scott Burgess of The Detroit News, it’ll be the same as was launched in China in November 2008 based on the Opel Insignia.

Thanks Jalopnik!
