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 one were to hear the brand name Buick, what would spring to mind are some of the most impressive classic cars in history. An interesting fact about Buick is that it was among the first American automobile brands and was the company that established General Motors. It was founded more than a century ago and granted the world with fascinating automobiles that are coveted today. The Buick Special, otherwise known as the Series 40, is a model line produced by the company that was usually its lowest-priced model. In the year 1940, Buick marketed their year lineup as new and improved, and our subject, the 1940 Buick Special Series 40 Coupe, was among them.
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.
The Special was built for several decades, undergoing multiple facelifts, including this particular iteration of a 1964 Buick Special Restomod. An automobile built for the people, the Special was a full-size car that came in different forms, this one being a 2-door. A restomod project, this Buick has been saved from expiration and given a new lease on life, ready to be enjoyed and appreciated by all passers-by, especially the driver. Packed with plenty of modern conveniences, a slick paint job, and a rebuilt engine that the current owner reports has less than 3,000 miles on the clock, very little can be said to turn down this special Buick.
