The 1971 Buick Riviera is based on the actual General Motors production vehicle. It was sometimes called the "Boattail" because of it's elongated rear window. It was designed by Jerry Hirschberg, who considered it a "peculiar car to look back on."
Oftentimes, this car was also called the "Batmobile" Riviera and sales dropped off to only 33,810 units for 1971, the lowest for any Riviera model up to that time. Mattel has done a good job capturing it's long, low stance and distinctive rear window styling.
