The first pic that was posted of this made me think it was a van or wagon o__O
....but a gullwing hatchback???
None of those are my idea of a Riviera.

When I think about a Buick Riviera I think about a boat-tailed low slung cruiser with sexy lines. Not this blob of rolling chrome and plastic.

This is actually one of the *nicer* Chinese-made concept cars in recent years... but because it wears the Buick badge, people will poo-poo it without mercy... ah well... que cera cera.

#3, Not many, we both know how many old people are attracted to sleek, shiny vehicles. How many people under 40 do you see driving Corvettes.

#4, It could wear any badge it wants, I'd still think it looks like crap.

#4, I didn't even know it was chinese. I thought it would be quite nice with doors that would see production.

They're not that unattainable. I could afford a used C5 pretty easily if I wanted a car that would bottom out leaving my apartment complex every morning. I could probably swing the payments on a C6, too, if I really wanted one.

#7, Plenty, a base model C6 Vette costs only around 40-45K. If you could get approved for financing, the payments probably wouldn't be much more than $600 a month, insurance is another story. But where there's a will there's a way.

Hell, I've probably got more in the Mustang than it'd cost to buy a decent late-model 'Vette.

Not that I care, really; it's a hobby.

If this summer goes well, I could swing it in about 9-12 months.

#11, Hell, with all the money I put in my truck I could've probably done like my friends and put a down payment on a newer car. But most newer cars just don't do it for me, I like my carbureted engines, my manual roll down windows, my non-power steering, my big chrome bumpers and my total absence of airbags, ABS and traction control.

...then of course, there are people like AchTTung that shock the hell out of everyone by getting a godly car like an RS6...

#13, The main reason I built the Rustang rather than buying a decent car was that I wanted a fairly powerful late-model car with fairly simple mechanicals and very little fluff. I like fuel injection a lot because it's possible to get at least some drivability out of engines that would otherwise have trouble even running, but I'm not a huge fan of today's driver aids.

#16, As said in Wolf's Rain...

Don't drink and drive.
Don't drive and drink.
Better yet, don't buy a car at all... use the money for more booze.

#15, The reason I bought my Suburban was basically because I fell in love with it the moment I saw it :) I was looking for a 67-72 C-10 and just happened upon mine one day. It wasn't quite what I was expecting but I liked it just the same. It's a comfortable and spartan vehicle with the convienience of an enclosed bedspace and a nice beefy 350 V8 coupled to a Turbo 350 transmission. It's got a manual choke and a 4 barrell Holley but it starts great and runs fine too, heck it's probably the one of the best running engines I've ever had. I'd like to have a more modern vehicle sure, I'd love to have a Mustang too as a matter of fact. But as of right now both my cars are paid off and my insurance is very affordable so me=happy.

#19, Not 15 minutes after I had signed the death warrant for my fleetwood, I saw a grass clipping covered 1964 Continent for sale for 500 bucks. I had exactly 550 bucks to my name. Other than the grass it was physically mint. I looked at it in awe and then realized it would wake up dead If had bought that car.
