1990 Rivera ( 7th Generation )

After a decade, ADM finally released a new generation of their flagship, the Rivera, a name used since early 50s, still going (somewhat) strong. For this new generation, ADM changed strategy and tried to improve the brand recognition for this model (some say there are plans of making Rivera their own brand) by dropping the extra trims offered in later years, such as the police, the fleet and the entry level trims, to focus on the best experience for the “Comfort” version, which was the only trim offered as standard. In 1990 an additional “Performance Package” was offered at dealers, later on in 1991 it was only accessible via order at any dealership and by 1992 only certain dealership offered the package as a special order (some even offered the possibility to upgrade previous sold comfort models).

All models came with ADM Hydro suspension™ and the barracuda V8, now with extra power and a smaller displacement. The “Performance Package” added Magnesium rims with a Bronze finish, a small spoiler lip, some performance badges and dual exhaust. Mechanically, the engine received a minor tune resulting in 20hp extra and different gearing in the differential, from 3.17:1 to 4.08:1 to improve acceleration, and the speed limiter was removed.
