The 1963 Buick Riviera is the first year production of the much sought after '63, '64, '65 first series. The 1963 Rivieras came equipped with the Buick 401 cubic inch engine and was the last year with the Dynaflow Transmission with the dual range. It's all stock and all original. Enclosed pictures shows the VIN and matching engine number proof.
The Riviera was purchased in San Francisco on February 24, 1976, and still sports the vintage black California license plates. At 50 years old, the car presently has just over 107,000 miles...that's about 2000 miles per year. The Riviera was repainted in the original tan color upon purchase and is still in very nice condition. Everything is original. The interior is original with very good leather (not vinyl) seats, carpet, headliner and door panels. Even the walnut wood paneling on the door and quarter panels is perfect, perfect original. The trunk matting and cardboard is original. And the headlamps are the vintage GM Guide T3's. The chrome and stainless exterior trim and all glass are in perfect condition, as well. The Riviera was never used for commuting, but for ROA activities and car shows in the Bay Area and always garaged. No dents, dings, scrapes, and certainly zero rust. There are a couple of small blemishes in the 40 year old Du Pont lacquer paint. The Riviera is equipped with many highly desirable options. Warning to other traffic is provided with the Four Note Horn option, consisting of the existing two horns behind the grill plus two more trumpet horns mounted on the inner side of the hood. For tunes the Riviera has the working AM BUICK Transistor Radio option with the Electric Radio Antenna option. For safety, the Riviera is equipped with not one, but two Remote Control Side Mirrors option. The right side remote mirror is very rare. The Riviera has the deluxe interior, which includes upgraded leather power seats,full length door and quarter wood inserts, and door full length armrest with door openers for front and rear seat passengers. Optional Power Windows are included, as well. A rare Cruise Control option works perfectly. And a Vacuum Trunk Opener option is included, as well. The Riviera is equipped with the standard Factory Power Brakes, Factory Power Steering, Factory 12" Drum Brakes with aluminum front drums that are par to disc brakes, Factory Air Conditioning blows hot air on the floor when set to heat, and ice cold air from the dash vents when set to cold. The engine starts right up, has lots of power, runs fantastic, the transmission operates smoothly and the drum brakes provide quick, sure stops. All original, unmolested stock 50 year old cars don't come up too often. The 1963 Buick Riviera with the sand exterior and tan leather interior equipped with bucket seats and console floor shift in the distinctive Riviera design is a fine example of desirable car built when the the Riviera was king of the road, providing great power, handling, and prestige in the personal luxury car field. The Riviera is located in the San Francisco Bay Area, has current registration, and a clear title in my name. A $500 non-refundable down payment is due within 48 hours of auction close.

Buick shows US dealers 2016 Cascada convertible
Wed, 20 Aug 2014The affordable four-seat convertible has become a largely forgotten genre in the States, especially with the death of the Chrysler 200 Convertible. Of course, there are still premium options from Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz - not to mention more overtly performance-oriented droptop pony cars from Chevrolet and Ford - but if you want an affordable cruiser, you're kind of out of luck. That may be about to change, however, with renewed rumors of the Opel Cascada (pictured above) making it across the Atlantic wearing a Buick badge.
According to GM Inside News, Buick showed off the Cascada to US dealers last week, with renewed word that the company plans to bring it over from Europe for the 2016 model year. The US version will reportedly be practically identical to its German cousin in terms of styling, but the powertrain underneath is less certain. According to GMI, it may use the 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that is available in Europe with either 168 horsepower or 197 hp.
The Cascada rides on GM's Delta II platform, which also underpins the Verano, and the latest rumor certainly provides even more evidence that the convertible is probably on the way. Speculation about the droptop started when GM CEO Dan Akerson said last year that the car was on his wish list to bring over. Then, the US trademark on the name was reserved earlier this year, and the release was speculated for sometime in early 2016.
Watch this phantom Buick drive itself down the highway in a snow storm
Mon, 16 Dec 2013Years ago, General Motors used Buick cars to test out the idea of a "smart highway" concept. More recently, GM has been talking up its award-winning Super Cruise semi-autonomous technology that will roll out with Cadillac and make its way to Buick. The LeSabre in the video above has nothing to do with any of that.
On Interstate 15 in Utah, a man driving this LeSabre got into an accident that rearranged the front end and set the horn on permanent blare. At the time of writing this, no one is sure what happened next, but the man ended up sitting in the snow in the highway median while his car carried on down the highway without him. Passing traffic stayed well to the right.
The 51-second video below provides a different take on our autonomous future. A local newscast on KUTV covered the story the evening of the incident, but the Utah Highway Patrol didn't have any update on the fate of the LeSabre. We'll take that to mean that Buick's take on Christine could still be out on the prowl... so watch out!
Buick Envision to go on sale in third quarter of 2015
Mon, 06 Oct 2014Following an earlier concept and successive teasers, Buick revealed the new Envision crossover a little over a month ago. The thing is, it was launched in China, for China. The question, then, is whether it will make the jump to the North American market. And the answer is: quite possibly.
According to division sales chief Duncan Aldred in speaking to Edmunds, Buick is looking into the prospect of bringing the Envision to the US: "We can't confirm anything, but clearly it is a very nicely designed and executed product that is very much a Buick," said Aldred.
If and when the compact crossover would appear in US showrooms, it would slot in between the smaller Encore and the larger Enclave. It would likely be offered in front-wheel drive, all-wheel drive and mild hybrid configurations. Sources expect it to arrive in the third quarter of 2015 as a competitor to the likes of the Mercedes GLA, Lexus NX and Lincoln MKC.
