The 1995-1999 Buick Riviera, a luxurious sedan that marked the end of an era for the iconic nameplate, represents a blend of classic elegance and modern technology. This generation of the Riviera, which was the seventh in its history, featured a sleek, aerodynamic design with a low, sloping roofline and a distinctively long hood. Under the hood resided a powerful 3.8-liter supercharged V6 engine, capable of generating 240 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque. Coupled with a four-speed automatic transmission, the Riviera delivered smooth acceleration and confident performance, allowing drivers to experience both comfort and agility. Interior appointments were luxurious, with plush leather seating, wood grain accents, and a comprehensive array of amenities, including an optional Bose sound system and a driver information center.

Production ceased in 1999, bringing an end to a legendary nameplate that had graced American roads for over four decades.
