Developed at its Pan Asia Technical Automotive Center in China, the Buick Riviera concept bowed at the Shanghai auto show, signifying the importance of the Chinese market for the GM division, which now accounts for more Buick sales than those in the U.S.
In addition to resurrecting a legendary Buick nameplate, the Riviera is also a technical showcase for a new hybrid power system that GM is promising to build with its Chinese partner, Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation (SAIC).
The Riviera has a carbon-fiber body, a bold waterfall grille and large gullwing doors. LED headlamps sweep up into the front fenders, and the lighting modules are punctuated by Buick's signature Ventiports--three per side, which indicates that the hybrid powerplant will likely employ a V-6.The new expressive shape, which also incorporates Buick's "sweep spear" character lines, is said to point a future design direction for all Buicks, according to GM Design VP Ed Wellburn. It also underscores that future Buicks will be developed in China as well as the U.S.

Buick Riviera Concept[/align][/align]Inside, the Riviera features an organic design approach, with traditional wood accents, blue trim and cream-colored leather. The chrome bezel around the dash is a modern interpretation of classic instrumentation from '50s and '60s' Buicks, while the touch pad on the center console is designed to resemble a computer mouse. Ambient light strips run through the door trim panels and the center console adding, another dimension to the car's interior.
The Riviera rides on 21-in. 10-spoke alloy wheels shod with ultra-low-profile tires. While the interior is snug, glass panels on top of the gullwings give the occupants a panoramic view out.

I like it, but the interior shot of the driver's seat looks like leg-room is a bit snug.

 

now that is sexy! that would be a nice car to have, can't wait till the car's actually start looking like that and they aren't outragously priced
