2 I.G.I. 03.28.16 at 10:34 am: No idea why, but cars, more than weapons, convey the societal mood of arrogance, aggression, and brutality.
3 Barry 03.28.16 at 1:46 pm: It looks pretty good for its age.
4 CJColucci 03.28.16 at 7:34 pm: I used to love that car, especially the retractable headlight covers.
5 js. 03.28.16 at 7:41 pm: To be fair, you don’t get that many American cars that look like *that* driving around in the US either.
6 Jeff Ryan 03.28.16 at 7:43 pm: AKA “clamshells”.

I’ve owned four Rivieras, though none of that vintage. But I rode in one often when they came out. Heaven.

10 Crprod 04.01.16 at 5:48 pm: Possibly the best looking Buick ever. One significant contribution to that is the absence of portholes.
