Detroit 2008: Buick Riviera Concept


The Buick Riviera concept debuted for the first time in the US at Detroit. The car debuted at the 2007 Shanghai Motor Show and was in fact designed and built by GM's Shanghai Tech Center.

This car shows that while Chinese manufacturers may largely have their heart set on creating cheap knock-offs of established designs from the west, Chinese designers are actually capable of creating some great designs.

Although GM refuses to say whether Buick will get a new coupe based on the Riviera, they do say that design elements of the car will appear on a new production Buicks to be unveiled later this year as well as other future models.
