I could not watch more than 2 min of that garbage without it continuously irritating the living fock out of me with the poor reporting. "I'm 5'10" and you get this cramped uncomfortable feeling in the SC300." 
Ever heard of motorized seats? ooooooh
Obvious poor GM attempt to try and steer sales from mainstream America. Where is the Riviera now? give me a break.

Value? I'll give you value! My SC spends less time in the shop than any car my parents/ grandparents/ friends/ aunts/ uncles cars could ever dream of! I think its pretty obvious why you don't see many Riviaras on the road still...they all died after 80k miles :P

That video comparison is a crap. The Riviera isn't the same class as the SC. Period. If everyone else thinks like the host, then no Corvette, Lambo or Ferrari are on the street. He can't compare between a bulky and ugly car to a sport tuned smooth shape like the SC. I just happened to sit in the 2004 Buick Sedan with near 100K miles and it bounces like crazy. That video is just for marketing and not honesty.

LOL!! If the Riviera is so good, how come I see way more SC's than Riviera's on the streets? Most of the time when I do see a Riviera is at pick-n-pull and usually the car remains untouched(not too many people have one).
I've seen many SC's at pick-n-pull so badly stripped that I can walk by it many times and not even know what kind of car it was until my brother points it out to me. Usually, only the shell is left!
Just shows that SC's are much better than Rivieras!

Good old fashioned American "luxury" car company bias
I love how he complains about it being cramped in the driver's seat at 5'10" with the seat all the way forward I am 6'4" and am comfy as hell in my SC400.
