No toy car collection would be complete without Buick Riviera toy cars though it is not so easy to find. Considering this car, from the Buick line, was a top of the range model that was manufactured for 36, between 1963 and 1999, there are not that many decent reproductions of it. The best is probably from the Georgia based company, ACME, that have been producing diecast models for the last 30 years.
Their 1/18 scale diecast Buick Riviera toy cars were reproducing both the '63 and the '64 models. As expected, all the doors, hood and trunk open and the rubber tires are steerable. The level of detail that can be seen from the interior and the engine are exquisite and well worth the selling price.
