My favorite car
Pros:
Love the body style, powerful engine, roomy and comfortable interior.
Cons:
expensive to repair, repairs done to it when purchased would have cost over $800!!
The Bottom Line:
Love it, would buy another one if I could find one with low miles!

Author's Review
I have had my Buick Riviera since December of 2001. It is the best car I've ever owned. It is nice and comfortable inside with leather seats, lots of room, but sleek and sporty on the outside. The car is like a cross between a sports car and a luxury car. The supercharged engine has power and has given us no problems at all. We have not had to do anything to this car other than routine maintenance like tires, brakes, oil changes etc, when we purchased it there was a problem with the heater or air conditioner which was fixed before we bought it. Options or special features on my model include: moon roof, power doors, windows, seats, CD player, and supercharged engine.
This car gets very good gas mileage, about 27-28 mpg on the highway. My husband drove it for several months to work, 100 miles each day, round trip. It was hard to get him to drive the other car after he drove the Buick for a while. Anyone I've talked with who has owned a Buick Riviera has loved it. They almost have a cult-like following, I think. My husband keeps telling me we need to trade it and get something new, but I keep holding out because I don't think I can find another car that I would like as well!
My only regret is that Buick quit making them.
