Anyone else a fan of these?



Even if its FWD....

I think it is an ugly looking beast.

It has a certain charm mind...

Yep, love 'em.

But a muscle car should smoke it's rear tyres, not the front!

I like 'em. Can't stop thinking about Kojak/Streets of San Francisco and similar 70s tv progs for some reason...;)

An example of the sister car to this, the 1966 Buick Riviera, is used in the new film Death Race starring Jason Statham and Lovejoy.

They haven't remade 'Death Race 2000' have they?

Is nothing sacred anymore?

Seems like Jason Statham has a thing about Buick's because he also drove a 71 Buick Riviera in the movie 'Crank'!

Oh and the Olds Toronado is a great looking beast.
