    5800 original miles, and only the memory seats and air suspension in back, to add to the options list? That's a tough one. What was the original MSRP back then?

    For the collector, yes it would command that price....soon. It is an AACA First Place winner (see grille badge). It does have quite a few options other than the seat and suspension. Quick examination shows a radio upgrade and touch control automatic HVAC.

    It's no slouch on options - just the opposite. The few it does not have would appear to be leather upholstery, digital dash readouts ( a good option list deletion), Bose stereo and power sunroof. The memory seats option in 1985 would have been a very rare option. The automatic level control rear suspension was standard on the '85 Riviera.

    I guess I wasn't clear on my meaning; I had pointed out the memory seats and air suspension as included on top of the options it had. I didn't, however, see that it had the touch screen unit, which I had wondered about. The seller's gonna need a deep-pocketed Buick lover to sell this for what he's asking.
