1995 Buick Riviera Recommendations

After a seasons absence from the lineup, this redesigned version of Buicks luxury coupe went on sale in spring 1994, as an early 95 model. The new Riviera was nine inches longer, 1.9 inches wider, a couple of hundred pounds heavier, and more powerful than its predecessor. Although Riviera was built on the same front-drive platform as the Oldsmobile Aurora sedan, the two cars shared no styling or interior features or major mechanical details. Rivieras came in a single price level, with a standard 3800 3.8-liter V6 engine. Shoppers who craved more get-up-and-go could select a supercharged version of the V6, producing 225 horsepower (20 more than standard). A 3-place front bench seat was standard; leather buckets optional. The new interior had dual airbags, full analog instrumentation, and 6-way power front seats. Antilock brakes were standard; traction control optional.
