Buick downsized the Riviera for 1977 onto the new smaller General Motors B platform. All B bodies were downsized for the 1977 model year, which prompted the short lived 1977 and 1978 generation. It was in most respects a Buick LeSabre coupe with unique styling, with the front fascia vertical as opposed to slanted. Sales were up modestly to 26,138 for 1977. The 1977 Riviera was a rear drive coupe on the smaller B platform.
