1983 Buick Riviera T-type review from North America
"Pure comfort and luxury floating on air"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Besides all the problems that came, like my axle in 2004, and my radiator in the same year, then my water pump and transmission in 2007, and the money; I still love the Riv. Smooth gliding comfort all the way to where you gotta go.
General comments?
Glides like a cloud on a lovely day, and when you wanna get going, your 307 5.0 is there to blast you up.
