Even if you would be a fan of this brand, an opposing manufacturer or just an amateur, only by looking at it you would soon understand that there was something special about this car which was impossible to find in other models. It just had something that would draw people to it.

Thus the first generation of Rivieras were just a work of art, and they were rendered the title of classic American muscle cars. They were the result of the great imagination of some of the best designers from General Motors who really proved once again that they can do wonders when working 100% on a project. But this was not only the effort of the designers.

This model was especially similar in terms of the interior layout, size and concept.
