    I worked at a Chevrolet/Buick dealership as a mechanic back in the eighties. One of the things a tech was tasked to do was new car preps. Which of course included Corvettes and back then, the Grand National. I much preferred the Buick over the Corvette. Much more comfortable to drive, and the Grand National was no slouch compared to the Corvette. I figured I'd own one some day but never have.

    I had a 1985 Buick Park Avenue for awhile - it was absolutely bulletproof. Always started, always ran smooth, never needed anything beyond regular oil changes. The upholstery and foam roof disintegrated , and all the plastic bits and electric window switches, etc., eventually broke, but the engine ran as good the day I sold it as when my dad gave it to me (and he bought it new). I may buy a Buick again, after my Audi phase passes.......

Mazda 3speed or VW GTI R or Subaru WRX etc are kind of what I'm getting at. I was going to grab one of these GN about 10 years ago but went against it. I lived in Canada at the time and they just aren't meant for those conditions for 6 months of the year. Still love them and seeing them on here.

    FAST and straight were those days GM progressed to making the best full size luxury FAST nimble coupe ever made in the USA. GM took all the imperfections of the last generation and tweaked them out of the last year Riviera 1999 then quit making this marvelous machine that to this day has style. Less than 2000 built after 6 years of searching only 38 found so far? Folks say there are 99 Rivieras everywhere but once asked they can never tell me where exactly? I have 4 Jay Leno has none. For 1998, the 240 hp (180 kW) supercharged V6 became standard. GM's OnStar service was added as an option, along with minor interior design changes. 10,953 units were produced for 1998. With sales of all coupes declining in the North American market, GM decided to discontinue the Riviera. 1999 was the car's last model year with production of 1,956 cars ceasing on November 25, 1998. The final 200 cars had special silver paint and trim, and were denoted "Silver Arrow"[28] models, a designation which hearkened back to several Silver Arrow show cars that had been built off Riviera bodies by Bill Mitchell. Eighth-generation Rivieras received the most powerful V-6 Buick engine since the Grand Nationals of the 1980s. The supercharged OHV V6 gave impressive torque and acceleration, pushing the car from 0 to 60 miles per hour (97 km/h) in under 7 seconds, and turning the ​1⁄4 mile in 15.5 seconds. Supercharged Rivieras achieved a fuel efficiency figure of 18/27 (city/highway mpg).

    That flutter noise is not the wastegate when your on boost & let go of throttle the air is trying to push out the turbo intake wheel because throttle plate is shut Buick back in 87 did not think to install a blow off valve
