1972 Buick Riviera Black 1:43 Scale Diecast Model | Boat-Tail

Product details

Description

The 1972 Buick Riviera represents the pinnacle of American luxury grand touring, combining elegant styling with powerful performance. Part of the third-generation Riviera lineup, the 1972 model featured distinctive "boat-tail" rear styling that remains one of the most recognisable designs in automotive history. Under the bonnet, buyers could choose from a range of powerful V8 engines, including the mighty 455 cubic inch unit producing up to 315 horsepower. With its long bonnet, sweeping lines, and luxurious interior, the Riviera epitomised American automotive sophistication during the early 1970s.
