More pics of the Buick Riviera concept
Check out these great shots of the new Buick Riviera concept. This was designed in China at GM's design studio there.
Buick is GM's most successful brand in China and the designers/engineers there will be working with their US counterparts to develop a cohesive brand image for Buick in both countries (currently, China has cars badged as Buicks that don't exactly resemble what we get here).
Expect this design language (itself showing signs of the swoop-y styling of the Enclave) to heavily influence the future face of Buick for many years to come.
All I can say is, 'it is about time'.

More pics of the Buick Riviera concept
The folks over at the Hollywood Extra blog have shown us all some more pictures of the Buick Riviera concept that will debut at the Shanghai Auto Show.
I'm really liking how the Enclave style translates into an elegant, sporty package.
I'd expect this to preview a product for both the Chinese and US markets for the end of the decade.

Buick Riviera Concept
Buick's Chinese arm is preparing a concept coupe for the Shanghai Auto show.
Digging up the classic Riviera name, this coupe seems to show how some of the Buick design language from the Enclave might make it to a sportier package.
Since Buick in the US and China are committed to working closely from now on, we should see some of this design language influence Buicks we can by in the USA as well.
This would make a great Zeta-based coupe for Buick (assuming GM continues down the Zeta-for-everyone path - currently on hold pending new US regulations for fuel economy/CO2 emissions).
More details and pics as they are released.
