1992 Oldsmobile Achieva S review from North America
"You need to know what you're doing"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
First thing happen was overheating had it replace for $70 from junk yard, and couple months later, I notice puddles under my feet gutted the car can't find no trace of leakage, so just live with it and now all shocks are out its like riding it a hummer or something, the car swerves a little when going speeds of 110 and above, door locks are confused driver side works only for unlock and car locks itself. My doors locks are jam can only unlock from one side and the windows are out of track that really sucks..Front dashboard has sun damage and ceiling like to flake.
General comments?
The car has lots of hidden powers I just need to tweak it right, good gas mileage, roomy backseats.
Just recently raced a new mercury Highlander and smoke it... my brakes are great.
I like the car its something you can make into something else. Just need to know what you 're doing.
The outside design are pretty much aerialdynamic.
