August 21, 201411 yr http://youtu.be/qep1qqTQhMQ November 1998 the last Buick Riviera came off the assembly line for a total of 1,848. Less than 50 known in the world! Best car I have ever driven ahead of its time
August 21, 201411 yr While '99 Rivs are certainly uncommon, there are more than 50 around. Otherwise, I've seen 10% of them on local CL in the last couple years. Cars 15 years old just don't have an attrition level of 95%.Wikipedia mentions... "1999 was the last model year for the Riviera, a very short one, with production of 1,956 cars ceasing on November 25, 1998. The final 200 cars had special silver paint and trim, and were denoted "Silver Arrow"[24] models, a designation which hearkened back to several Silver Arrow show cars that had been built off Riviera bodies by Bill Mitchell."I can believe that only 50 of these 200 Silver Arrow cars whereabouts are known. That said, your Riv is a gorgeous car, and I still feel the '95-'99 Rivs are one of the best 5 cars GM has built in the last 20 years.
August 21, 201411 yr Lovely Car, Awesome effort at keeping it so nice and clean. Truly a collectible for the future. Here in Seattle Washington, the state gives special license plates to auto's that are 20 years old or older and identify them as collectibles. So 5 more years for your lovely ride. Keep up the awesome work.
