Although it doesn’t have much competition, there are probably people who like Rivera’s better than it, or one of the Regal GS models, or the Lacrosse Super and there is probably one idiot who thinks the Rendezvous is the best because they are either

A: Blind

B: Stupid

b ut they are obviously wrong, the Grand National and the GNX variant are the best cars to ever come out of a Buick dealership

This. The first generation Riviera is significantly better than the regal. Even the boat tail generation is better

The first gen Riv is the only car of those I'm a huge fan of, but you are entitled to your own opinion, as am I considering this post is very opinionated, eventually that one huge Rendezvous fan will come out of the woodwork and insult me for hating on the greatest vehicle ever made by human hands.

 At least respect it for being a pioneer. You might not like the styling, but it was built in 1938. Most Americans were still driving Model Ts in 1938.

I drove an 81 Monte Carlo when I was a teenager, and thought it was a bit of a grandpa car... because my grandpa had a standard 79 Buick Regal.

The formal-roof notchback coupes like the GM G-bodies just didn’t do it for me, although I did respect the T-type, Grand National, and GNX for their performance... but I always thought the F-body was much cooler, specifically the Firebird and TA more than the jock/mullet-associated Camaro.

But in terms of Buick... I’d go well before my time, and get a 66-67 Mark II Riviera, and resto-mod that. I like it better than the Eldo or the Toronado that were both front-drive, while the Rivie was RWD and a bit more subtly cool.

Kinja'd!!!

but Mark I and Mark III boat-tail Rivies are probably more popular with most.

Best modern car, sure. One of the greats of the 80s? Definetly. Better than an old 40s buick..... Not really an apples to apples comparison there

And i will be on your side, i would take a gnk with t tops over a chevelle reskin any day. Dollar to dollar the gn is a better car.
