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. |

Buick might be getting a logo makeover
Fri, 23 Nov 2012General Motors has finished off an extensive model overhaul for its Buick division, but along with its updated cars, the brand might also be getting a new logo. According to the Detroit Free Press, GM North America President Mark Reuss indicated that the Buick tri-shield logo could be getting a makeover, but offered no further information.
It is unlikely Buick will completely redesign or replace its current logo, but the article seems to indicate that it might return to color; although all chrome now, the logo used to feature red, white and blue shields. Head on over to the Detroit Free Press article to look at some past Buick logos including one from 1904.
Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

The importance of Angel Eyes, Ventiports and four round taillights
Sun, 01 Sep 2013Just the other day, we told you about how Lincoln isn't really a luxury brand, according to Ford's head design man, J Mays. His argument was that Lincoln lacked the unique DNA to differentiate it from the rest of the market, although the arrival of the MKZ is beginning to change that. Now, we have this video from Autoline Detroit, where Jim Hall, an analyst for 2953 Analytics who was quoted in yesterday's Lincoln story, explains the influence of certain styling cues and how they impact the brands.
Using BMW (Angel Eyes) and Buick (Ventiports) as examples for small, simple touches that serve to distinguish the brand's vehicles on the road, Hall then points out how changing trademark styling features, as Chevrolet has done on the new Corvette Stingray, can hurt the vehicle's public perception. Take a look at the full video below for an interesting dive into what these styling features mean to their individual brands.
