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.
Exterior and Interior
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.
Engine
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.
