1990 Buick Riviera Luxury Coupe 2-door 3.8l on 2040-cars
North Dighton, Massachusetts, United States
|
For your consideration is this exceptional survivor automobile. I've owned this car for almost two years and in that time took care of a few very minor cosmetic blemishes and it now presents as a nearly brand new car. Original special order Medium Slate Metallic paint still is in excellent condition, almost unheard of for a GM car of this vintage. Options include leather seats, special order turbine alloy wheels, half landau top, digital dash, car phone, power trunk pull-down and dual 16 way power front seats. This vehicle spent the first part of its life in Florida before being brought up to MA in 2004. As a result, it has NEVER, to my knowledge, been driven on snow or on salty roads. Looking at this car on a garage lift, the underside looks practically brand new as well. I have loved this car and kept it covered and garaged throughout my ownership, and the previous owner kept it garaged and rarely drove it as well. I hate to sell this car, but must because I've recently inherited an antique car that has been in the family for more than 40 years, and need the storage space for it, as I have only one garage bay available to me. In full disclosure, the Riviera's hood has a very small repairable dimple in the front passenger corner and the radio has some intermittent static and tone issues. The driver's door lock lever does not go all the way down all the time. This is an exceptionally rare car. A CompNine assessment on the vehicle shows only 5 produced in this color combination with these options. Buyer pays shipping in the continental US. More pictures can be taken of specific areas upon request. Folder of vintage ads and magazine articles from the year/era of this car including CarFax report, along with custom fit breathable cover, and extremely rare 1990 Buick dealer and selling manuals included in the sale. Due to the age and collector car status of this vehicle, there is no warranty expressed or implied. |

GM laying off 510 amidst slow Cadillac, small car sales
Wed, 12 Nov 2014General Motors is laying off about 510 workers from two factories beginning in January, and it could be months before the automaker needs some of that latent capacity to come back on line. A combination of poor sales and high dealer inventories are prompting the cutbacks, according to Automotive News.
The largest changes come at GM's Lansing Grand River plant, where the Cadillac ATS and CTS are made. An entire shift of about 350 workers is being laid off, but the automaker hopes to find positions for some of them at other nearby factories. The decision leaves just a single shift building vehicles there. According to Automotive News, the move is partially spurred by Johan de Nysschen's plan to make Cadillac a more exclusive brand.
The lost shift will likely return for production of the next-generation Chevrolet Camaro at the plant, according to the report, but GM isn't saying when that will be. A previous announcement from the Canadian Auto Workers union indicated that the Oshawa, Ontario, factory would lose the coupe in late 2015 or early 2016.
Buick celebrates 110 years by naming most significant model of each decade
Sun, 23 Jun 2013In May of 1903, Buick began work on its first vehicle, the 1904 Model B, the first example of which was sold to a doctor in Flint, Michigan. That first sale was appropriate since later on, Buick became known as a "doctor's car." The Model B is the first of 11 cars chosen by Buick to highlight each decade of the company's 110-year history.
The 1916 D-45 Touring with a six-cylinder engine was Buick's highest seller that year, and helped push overall sales past six figures for the first time, making Buick the top-selling automotive brand. In 1931, Series 50 got an eight-cylinder engine, which helped the company survive the Great Depression. The 1936 Century was the first Buick that could hit 100 miles per hour, the 1949 Roadmaster had a supporting role in Rain Man, the 1953 Skylark had Italian wire wheels and the owner's name engraved on its steering wheel.
Then we have the iconic 1963 Riviera, the V6-powered 1975 Regal, and in 1987, the legendary GNX. With a turbocharged, intercooled V6 pumping out 276-horsepower it could hit 60 mph in just 4.6 seconds. In 1999 Buick built the first car in China, the Century, and that country remains the brand's largest market.
2014 Buick LaCrosse updated with new styling, tech
Mon, 25 Mar 2013Buick might have one of the smallest lineups among major automakers, but by the time the 2014 model rolls around, it will definitely have one of the freshest. Debuting at the New York Auto Show this week, the 2014 Buick LaCrosse receives numerous styling changes inside and out, and it benefits from many of the same new features found on closely related models like the Cadillac XTS and the 2014 Chevrolet Impala.
Exterior changes are relatively minor, but they still help give the car a fresh, new look. The new face of the 2014 LaCrosse fits in with recently new or redesigned Buick models with its oversized waterfall grille, LED-trimmed headlights and the signature hood vents being moved to the side of the hood rather than the top. Similar changes have been made to the rear, like the reshaped LED taillights, the full-width chrome trim and a new fascia design; LaCrosse models equipped with the 3.6-liter V6 will still get the integrated exhaust finishers but they're executed in a more stylish manner than the current model. Finishing off the exterior, new wheel designs are also being introduced, which will include bringing 20-inch wheels to the sedan's option list.
Inside, Buick redesigned almost the entire cabin to create a more luxurious and upscale appearance. The instrument panel is essentially carried over, but pretty much everything else has been redesigned and updated with the biggest change being to the driver's area. Dual eight-inch configurable displays make up the center stack and gauge cluster, while the overall number of buttons have been reduced from 17 down to just seven. The 2014 LaCrosse will also be offered with the next-generation IntelliLink, which receives many of the same enhancements as Chevy's latest version of MyLink adding better customization, improved voice commands and more features including Pandora. Additionally, new door panels, seat and center console complete the LaCrosse's interior redesign.
