Breakdown of the 25 Best Muscle Cars to Own (Part 4a – General Motors – Buick)

by Ross Mills

In Part 4a of our muscle car series, we dive into Buick’s glory days with the Riviera, proving luxury and performance can coexist without a hint of Cadillac’s snobbery. From ’63 to ’65, the Riviera was the suave underdog, sporting a “Nailhead” V8 engine that could make a cheetah blush. With a smooth ride and power features like no other, it was the James Bond of cars—classy, fast, and always leaving a lasting impression. Plus, owning one now is like having a golden ticket in the muscle car Willy Wonka factory!

In 1973, the Chevrolet Corvette took a detour from its muscle car roots, flirting with the idea of becoming a luxury sports car. It added soundproofing and radial tires to make the ride smoother, though it also gained a little front-heavy thanks to a new bumper, adding 35 pounds of “why-did-I-eat-that-extra-doughnut” weight. The 454 engine might’ve slowed down, but “Road and Track” still gave it a thumbs up. Meanwhile, the L82 small block engine was all about balance—because who doesn’t need a little Zen in their Corvette?
