 BUICK RIVIERA SPORT COUPE FOR 1971

The fleet, new design of Buick's Riviera sport coupe for 1971 is enhanced by the tapered rear end styling, a sculptured accent line down the side and an expansive rear window that is tailored to the roofline. The cantilever styling of the roof is achieved by the use of thin windshield pillars that slope inward at the top. Max Trac, Buick's exclusive computerized drive control system which improves directional stability on slippery roads, is offered as an option on the Riviera.
