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.
This 1985 Buick Riviera Coupe features an almost black-looking blue exterior finish. The owner reports that the car was repainted around four years ago to the car's exact color code, hence the nearly perfect paint look. The Riviera has a certain styling that harkens back to the gentlemen's club of the 1970s and 1980s. The front features a formal fascia with quad rectangular headlights flanking a chrome vertical grille. Lower, you can see the chrome front bumper. A quick look to the sides will show you a return to chrome on the side skirts, while the rear is host to stylish vintage taillights. The car is graced with chrome wire wheels with the Riviera logo on the center caps. The vehicle also hosts "Riviera" branded splash guards on all wheels. The interior features Velour seats finished in a swanky blue color. The dash, doors, and floor feature the same color, while faux wood trim is present on the previous two. The center console features the original radio and air conditioning controls. The owner reports that the air conditioning is in functioning order. The car also features the original steering wheel, with a bit of wear and tear on it.
An Oldsmobile-sourced 307ci V8 engine powers this 1985 Buick Riviera Coupe. The 3-speed automatic transmission transfers energy to the front wheels. A certain amount of mechanical work has been completed on the car, including the installation of a new water pump, new belts, and new hoses, as reported by the owner. The current owner also reports the stock exhaust and an Air Ride suspension.
By 1965, the Buick Riviera had firmly established itself as one of the most striking American personal luxury coupes of its time. Combining Bill Mitchell’s sharp styling with Buick’s refined powertrains, the Riviera delivered both presence and performance in equal measure. This example, a 1965 model, carries the legendary 401 cubic-inch “Nailhead” V8 paired to a smooth-shifting ST-400 3-speed automatic transmission. Showing 20,446 miles on the odometer, it has been repainted in an eye-catching orange finish and fitted with aftermarket wheels, setting it apart while still honoring the car’s bold original character.
In the Sixties, everyone wanted to get in on the Personal Luxury Car mania. Buick’s contender was aptly named the Riviera, which is Italian for coastline. The first-generation Riviera was introduced to the public in 1963, and the model would continue until 1999, spanning eight generations. Today’s 1971 Buick Riviera comes from the third generation, and has got some modern upgrades under its belt. The current owner of this San Diego-based car also reports that all receipts and invoices are available with the sale.
The seller presents this 1984 Buick Riviera Pace Car Replica, featuring a newly installed 307ci V8 engine and an automatic transmission. According to the seller, the engine has approximately 12,000 miles, while the transmission has covered around 4,000 miles. This front-wheel-drive luxury coupe retains its classic styling while incorporating several new components, including a new alternator, a refreshed front end, and a recently replaced AC compressor. The seller also notes that new tires were installed approximately 5,000 miles ago. With 89,317 miles on the chassis, this Riviera showcases aftermarket Pace Car decals, enhancing its unique appearance. Located in Indiana, this Buick offers a blend of vintage charm and modern upgrades.
The Buick Regal is one of those nameplates from the Seventies that you can still buy today, albeit not in North America, but China! Introduced in 1973, just as the Malaise Era was taking hold, the Regal has always been the premium midsize offering from this storied American automaker. Regals have been made in coupe, sedan and station wagon forms, and come with some hot variants too. North American Regal sales ceased in 2020, as Buick wanted to refocus its attention towards solely selling SUVS in North America. Today, we have a second-generation 1986 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo for sale from Downey, California. This was considered quite a hot car in its time, due to its punchy 3.8-liter turbo V6 and performance-tuned suspension. This 44,107-mile car also comes with an upgraded intercooler set-up for a bit more bite.
The 1938 Buick Special Series 40 Sedan captures the elegance and innovation of pre-war American motoring, blending Buick’s hallmark smoothness with stylish Art Deco design. Offered from Nevada, Missouri, this example remains highly original, powered by its 248ci inline-eight paired to a 3-speed manual transmission. With 72,366 miles, it stands as both a collectible pre-war classic and a usable vintage sedan that showcases Buick’s engineering achievements of the era.

Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail. Verified by its X66 code and built at the Norwood, Ohio plant, this real-deal Super Sport coupe combines factory originality with subtle performance enhancements that elevate both its drivability and collectability. With its matching-numbers big-block, correct Turbo 400 transmission, and period-authentic Holley 4346 carburetor, this Camaro is the perfect blend of raw 1960s muscle and expert craftsmanship.
Chevy’s second-generation Corvette was made from 1963 to 1967, but across that relatively short lifcycle, over 117,000 examples found homes. This highlights how popular the Corvette was back then, much like it is now. The second generation or C2 brought about many features that we know from later ‘Vettes, such as pop-up headlamps, the boat-tailed styling, and the exclusive use of V8s for the Corvette – the C1 did offer a six cylinder early in its lifecycle but that wasn’t deemed worthy for a top-tier sports car. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe for sale from Shohola, Pennsylvania, and let us tell you it’s a catch. With a growling 327 under the hood, this is classic American car nirvana at its finest. Plus, given the great condition of the car, it’s a sure-fire appreciating asset if you continue to look after it. If you’re interested in getting your hands on this beauty, we’re waiting for your call or DM.
Chevy’s third-generation Corvette of 1968 to 1982 was the best-seller in the entire range, in terms of generational numbers. Thanks to its super-long production run, over 542,000 were made, despite it carrying on through the dreaded Malaise Era. During these dark times for automotive enthusiasts, Chevy worked hard to maintain the Corvette as one of the fastest American cars around – of course that was a subjective term, but impressive, nonetheless. Hence, a C3 Corvette is a robust way to enter the world of classic American cars. Want to know more? We’ve got a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette for sale from Littleton, Colorado right here. It packs a 350ci L48 under the hood, paired with an automatic transmission to make it more convenient for those who never bothered to learn stick shift.
