1987 Buick Regal American Graffiti Motormax 1:24











The Buick Regal is an upscale mid-size car introduced by Buick for the 1973 model year. North American production ended in 2004 and began again in 2011. For the 2011 model year, Buick re-introduced the Regal to the North American market, positioned as an upscale sport sedan. Production and sales in China have continued since 1999.
For certain model years between 1973 and 2004, the Regal shared bodies and powertrains with the similar Buick Century. The current model (2011–present) is a badge-engineered version of the Opel Insignia, known as the Vauxhall Insignia in the UK.

1964 Buick Riviera Hot Wheels 1:64









From Wikipedia:

The Buick Riviera is a personal luxury car that was marketed by Buick from 1963 to 1999, with the exception of the 1994 model year.

As General Motors' first entry into the personal luxury car market segment, the Riviera was highly praised by automotive journalists upon its high-profile debut. The ground-up design that debuted for 1963 was also Buick's first unique Riviera model, and it pioneered the GM E platform.

Unlike its subsequent GM E platform stablemates, the Oldsmobile Toronado and Cadillac Eldorado, the Riviera was initially a standard front engine/rear-wheel drive platform, only switching to front-wheel drive starting for 1979.

While the early models stayed close to their original form, eight subsequent generations varied substantially in size and styling. A total of 1,127,261 Rivieras were produced.

The Riviera name was resurrected for two concept cars that were displayed at auto shows in 2007 and in 2013.

1988 Buick Regal 1:24 Premium American Motorcars.











El Buick Regal o Buick Regal Century es un coche de tamaño mediano, es decir, del segmento D, desarrollado​ por General Motors bajo su firma Buick desde el año 1973. Hubo etapas de producción en las que este modelo no estuvo presente bien en el continente norteamericano o bien en el asiático. El Regal se comercializó hasta el año 2004, cuando fue sustituido por el Buick LaCrosse, aunque se siguió produciendo en la República Popular China.
En el año 2011, Buick re-introdujo el Regal en el mercado de América del Norte, posicionado como un sedán deportivo de lujo, esta vez tomando como base un modelo fabricado por Opel.
Buick había sido la primera división de GM para introducir un coche de lujo personal en el mercado junto con el Riviera en el año 1973. Al mismo tiempo, Oldsmobile añadió un coupé de tres volúmenes formal a su línea intermedia: el Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme en 1970. Las otras divisiones de GM querían un modelo que podría ser comercializado para competir contra el Cutlass Supreme, así que crearon modelos como el Pontiac Grand Prix y el Chevrolet Monte Carlo, Buick presentó el Regal de 1973, como un coupé de línea superior especial en medio de esa división.
Un nuevo Regal apareció en 1988 en la plataforma de GM W. El Regal se ofrece como un auto de lujo limited y Gran Sport como líneas de corte. La opción​ de Gran Sport venía, a partir de 1991, con un motor de serie Buick V6 con 3,8 L de la Serie nominal 3800 de 170 HP (127 kilovatios), llantas de aluminio, revestimiento lateral de la carrocería, instrumentación completa, y una consola de palanca de cambios montada unida a una transmisión automática de 4 velocidades.

1955 Buick Century Police 1:26 Maisto











From Wikipedia:

Buick Century is the model name that was used by Buick for a line of upscale full-size cars from 1936 to 1942 and 1954 to 1958, as well as from 1973 to 2005 for mid-size cars.

The first Buick Century debuted in 1936 as a shorter and lighter model featuring the same engine as the bigger Roadmaster and Limited series giving it more performance. The Century name was then used on six generations of cars of varying sizes as well as performance and trim levels.

In 1969, Buick developed a concept car known as the Century Cruiser.
