In the automotive world, one marketing strategy and tactics can get you so far; manufacturers need to produce a product that fits customers' needs but is also remarkable. This was especially true in the Sixties when muscle cars and performance were at an all-time high. Standing out was a tough job, but the Buick Riviera stuck out like a sore thumb amongst all the madness. Take a look at this 1967 Buick Riviera Gran Sport we have today. With a reported 33,000 miles on the clock, this is one vintage car that stands out anywhere.
While the 2nd generation Buick Riviera was marketed as a personal luxury car its sleek looks sure could trade blows with even the most handsome muscle car out there. This 1967 Buick Riviera Gran Sport sports a lovely sapphire blue exterior which brings out the Chrome and the concealed headlights at the front. The vintage-styled Chrome plated wheels are wrapped around Wide oval White Wall tires are a fine mix of sporty and luxury and compliments the car well. You can’t match the sapphire blue exterior better than with the white interior present on this 1967 Buick Riviera Gran Sport. The seats feature custom padded cushions and provide comfort. The interior is original with all its Buick insignia present and looks shiny and new. The dashboard features an AM/FM Radio with an electric antenna, an electric clock, and the car's original tilt steering wheel. The rear seats feature a rear seat speaker to pump out some smooth tunes. You also get seatbelts for added safety.
The Riviera was a reasonably large car, and a refresh was in order. The 1967 model year saw a refresh when the 425ci V8 engine was replaced with the more powerful and better 430ci Engine. This 1967 Buick Riviera Gran Sport sports that 430ci Wildcat Nailhead V8 engine, which was capable of pushing out an impressive 360hp when new. This behemoth sized engine is fueled with a 4bbl carburetor with dual inlet air cleaner for better power delivery. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission. Drives are made more pleasant with power steering and power brakes in place. This large vehicle sticks well on the road thanks to a heavy-duty suspension with a performance axle and positive traction differential. That mighty V8 is allowed to roar louder thanks to a dual exhaust.

Buick's crack at the burgeoning personal luxury car market of the Sixties, the Riviera, made its first appearance in 1963. It saw eight generations of production until 1999 when it bowed out after over 1.1 million were made. This 1964 Buick Riviera Coupe is a fine example for someone wanting to get into the Riviera lifestyle and sample true Sixties American luxury. With 54,000 miles on the clock, it's had some work done and needs a bit more as well. Thus, it's the ideal car for someone seeking a classic as well as a weekend project.
From the time Buick was introduced to the market, especially the North American market, it was known for its luxury and was marketed as a uber-premium brand. One of their more memorable and distinguishable models is the Buick Riviera, produced from 1963 to 1993 and then from 1995 to 1999 under nine distinct generations. The Riviera, marketed as a personal luxury car, gained its name from the Italian translation of coastline. Up for grabs is a late sixth-generation 1985 Buick Riviera Coupe with 122,600 miles on the odometer.
Ford’s Thunderbird kicked off the personal luxury car craze, also known as the Grand Tourer. Buick jumped on the bandwagon with the Riviera in 1963. Named after the picturesque French Riviera, the nameplate would see a run until 1993, with a short resurrection from 1995 to 1999. The first-generation Riviera has also been the subject of the 2008 Croatian film Buick Riviera, about a Bosnian man and his connection with his Riviera. If you’re after a first-generation Riviera, this 1964 Buick Riviera Sport Coupe is a fine choice, as it appears to be in great condition inside and out.
If the '60s was known for its golden era of muscle cars, then the '80s must be known for its excess. The 1987 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo is the perfect example, with this luxury coupe grabbing the big power figures and offering performance that characterized Buick’s entry into the performance car market. While the Grand National and GNX remain desirable Buick Regal models, their rarity and soaring prices make the T-Type an attractive option. Just like its siblings, the T-Type boasts similar performance figures and improved mechanicals over the standard car. Our featured car presents a rare opportunity to snag a low-mileage, one-owner example of a 1987 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo. The current owner reports that they bought the car new in 1986. Since then, the owner reports the car has covered an original mileage of just 23,000 miles. In addition to having a numbers-matching engine and transmission, this Buick Regal features all original books and manuals, which will be included in the sale.
The Buick LeSabre comes from an era where it wasn’t uncommon for sedans to have their stylish convertible offshoots. Our 1970 Buick LeSabre Convertible is exactly that, featuring the same iconic design elements that made this full-sized GM creation a household name, with the bonus of a convertible top to make this a truly special creation. By 1970, the Buick LeSabre was in its third generation and featured a 60s-inspired “Coke-Bottle” silhouette with a long hood and a flowing midsection. Out front, the car features quad headlamps and the traditional pointed grille design. Our featured car captures just about everything that makes this generation of automobiles great. And what's more, it’s been subjected to a full restoration featuring a laundry list of new parts.
The Buick Regal Grand National is an institution among fans of classic muscle cars. It’s a fairly standard recipe by modern standards: take an unassuming coupe and add forced induction to the engine to create bigger power figures. But back in the ’80s, turbo-powered American cars weren’t as common as you’d imagine. The Buick Regal Grand National Turbo was one of the few to harness the power of a turbo in the chassis of a muscle car coming from a V6 motor. This 1987 Buick Regal Grand National Turbo on sale is a unique custom creation featuring multiple upgrades under the hood, as well as cosmetic touches to finish off this unique build. In addition, the owner reports that this car has covered just 6,000 miles since the original engine was rebuilt.
