This is a Real Rare Find! NO RESERVE!
All original 1983 Buick Riviera 2 door Luxury Coupe. This very highly optioned vehicle has been in my family since new. Very low original mileage of only 44,422. Loaded with factory options such as climate control, power seats, power windows and locks, power antenna(currently not working), tungsten halogen headlights and so much more. This car was purchased new by my grandparents at Vern Eide Buick in Sioux Falls, SD. My dad currentley owns it and I am assisting him in selling it. Car is extremely clean and has always been garaged and covered since new. The car is nearly 100% original except for the driver front fender that was replaced about 10 years ago when the original front tire came apart and damaged it. It was repaired by the Buick dealership and there are no signs of the damage whatsoever. Also, the Riviera emblem on the hood was stolen about 20 years ago and an original replacement was never found. The one on there now is not original to the car but it was the best emblem my grandfather could find. The factory exhaust has been replaced as well.
The car is in excellent shape overall and runs and drives superbly. The color is an upgraded option code D83 and is called Firemist. The paint and body are very nice but do show some minor wear such as a few scratches, nics, and two dings on the hood. The plastic filler panels behind the front and rear bumpers have cracked(see pics). The wire wheel hubcaps are in excellent condition and even come with the original locking tool for the hubcaps. the tires are all in great shape. The interior shows very little signs of wear with exception of the headliner which is starting to sag in a few spots(see pics). The seats and carpet are near perfect and there are no smells or odors in the cars. Original floor mats also show very little wear. The dash is perfect with no cracks or waves at all. All factory options work as they should with the exception of the power antenna. The engine is very clean and runs really smooth. The transmission works as it should but will drip some after sitting for awhile. All of the original paperwork, books, window sticker, and Bose casstte tapes are all original with car.
Car is for sale locally so I do reserve the right the right to end auction early. Serious buyers can call my father Kim directly at 864-915-6356 or you can email me through eBay and I will do my best to get all questions answered. I have done my best to desrcibe this car as accuratley and honestly as possible. Anyone is more than welcome to come and inspect the car. I have taken a lot pictures so please look over them carefully. This is a link to my photobucket with more pictures.
I have done my best to describe this car as accuratley as possible with that being said I will not make any concessions for anything inadvertently left out of the description.

GM puts e-commerce shopping in car dashboards
Tue, Dec 5 2017DETROIT — General Motors on Tuesday said it will equip newer cars with in-dash e-commerce technology, betting it can profit as drivers order food, find fuel or reserve hotel rooms by tapping icons on the dashboard screen, instead of using smartphones while driving. GM's Marketplace technology, developed with IBM, will be uploaded automatically to about 1.9 million model-year 2017 and later vehicles starting immediately, with about 4 million vehicles across the Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac brands equipped with the capability in the United States by the end of 2018, GM said. GM will get an undisclosed amount of revenue from merchants featured on its in-dash Marketplace, Santiago Chamorro, GM vice president for global connected customer experience, said during a briefing for reporters. Customers will not be charged for using the service or the data transmitted to and from the car while making transactions, he said. "This platform is financed by the merchants," Chamorro said. GM will get paid for placing a merchant's application on its screens, and "there's some level of revenue sharing" based on each transaction, he said. It is too soon to say how much revenue GM could realize from the Marketplace system, he said. The GM Marketplace will compete for customer clicks and revenue with hand-held smartphones, which offer a far richer array of applications than the GM system will at the outset. Amazon.com is partnering with other automakers, including Ford, to offer in-car e-commerce capability through Amazon's Alexa personal assistant system. For example, GM will launch Marketplace with just Shell and Exxon Mobil icons in the fuel category. The only restaurant available for in-car table reservations at launch is the chain TGI Fridays, GM said. In addition, there will be apps for parking, and ordering ahead at coffee shops and restaurants such as Starbucks, Dunkin' Donuts and Applebee's. "We will be adding more vendors," with some coming in the first quarter of 2018, Chamorro said. In addition, he said GM plans to expand integration into its vehicles of music, news and other information services. GM also hopes to use its in-car Marketplace connections to expand purchases of products and services, such as additional access to in-car wifi, from its own replacement parts business and dealer network. Customers can "expect to see more service promotions coming through the platform," Chamorro said. Reporting by Joe WhiteRelated Video:
Buick and Bar Refaeli teach in-car yoga
Mon, Jul 27 2015We're not sure which make or model you'd most readily associate with yoga. You'd probably see a fair few Mercedes convertibles, VW Beetles, and assorted minivans and crossovers outside your typical American yoga studio. But not to be left out of the contorting action, Buick is out to link itself to the age-old practice with these latest videos. They feature, as you can see, the ever lithe and supple Bar Rafaeli, clad in spandex, stretching and contorting herself inside and out of a Buick Verano. Which is really all you should need to know, but there's a little more to the clip above (and the behind-the-scenes video below) than eye candy. Choreographed by yoga guru Chad Dennis, the idea behind the video – cleverly entitled The Body Shop – is to show drivers, in as artful and visually pleasing a way as possible, how to limber up their body, mind, and soul in preparation for (or recovery from) a long drive. It also serves to promote the brand's new 24 Hours of Happiness test drive program that lets prospective buyers take a Buick home and try it out for a day before buying. And if nothing else, it aptly demonstrates that Buick has excellent taste – or at least as good as Sports Illustrated that gave the Israeli model her first big break, Leonardo DiCaprio whom she dates for several years, and the dozens of fashion labels, jewelry brands, and magazines for which she's posed in recent years.
Next Buick Regal coming in 2017, could be imported from Germany
Sun, 03 Aug 2014The Buick Regal is based on the Opel/Vauxhall Insignia, a pair of sedans from General Motors' European and British outfits. In fact, over 46,000 Regals from model years 2010 and 2011 were screwed together on the same lines as the Insignia twins, before GM's Oshawa, Ontario factory took over production fully. Considering this closeness, rumors that claim the next-generation Regal - due for 2017 - could move back to Europe aren't terribly surprising. Here's why, according to Automotive News.
Oshawa is home to three other vehicles, aside from the Regal - the Chevrolet Camaro, Impala rental queen and the Cadillac XTS. We already know next-gen Camaro production is headed to Lansing, MI, and that the fleet-only Impala will (finally!) die in 2016. As for the XTS, as AN explains it, sales are so slow that GM will either kill it or just shuffle its production volume elsewhere.
Taken along with the fact that Unifor, the Canadian labor union repping workers at the Oshawa factory, claim GM hasn't made any guarantees about future production at the nearly 60-year-old factory, it seems fairly clear that the Regal's current factory is going to be put out to pasture.
