For 1982 the Buick Riviera experienced several major changes including a range of engines and the introduction of the first Riviera convertible! The 1982 model Riviera was a perfect design for the convertible top and retained its unique formal roofline with a luxurious appeal. The cars were built in Detroit at the end of 1982 and shipped to 'American Sunroof' in Lansing, MI for conversion into convertibles. These Riviera convertibles are very desirable and are often seen in parades. Color choices were reminiscent of Henry Ford with the choice of only two colors, Firemist Red or White with only 1,248 cars built in the first year of production in 1982 (898 in White & 350 in Firemist Red). They were built for 4 years (1982-5) with only 3,898 built in total.
The car has obviously always been garaged with no signs of any accidents and a clean CARFAX report.
The original factory 'White' color paint is in pristine condition as is the original 'Burgundy' leather interior which is in as beautiful condition throughout. The car drives exactly like a well maintained and serviced Buick should and must be driven to be fully appreciated and seen to be believed! The engine is extremely strong with no noticeable oil leaks, the transmission is very smooth shifting and the temperature always remains cool.
You will surely look long and hard to find a finer example of this exceptionally clean and increasingly collectible and desirable 1983 Buick Riviera Convertible with only 25K original miles available anywhere else!
