1993 Oldsmobile 98 Touring Sedan review from North America
"Extremely fast luxury cruiser"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Adapter for coolant hose broke because of corosion.
Exhaust broke off in front of catalytic converter.
Leather has some visible wear.
Some buttons on the dash are cracked.
Has needed rebuilt engine.
General comments?
This car is a very nice daily driver and it is extremely fast because of its supercharged engine.
It handles very well on any road surface.
The bucket seat are very supportive and comfortable.
The sports-suspension is somewhat stiff, but makes the car handle very well in corners.
The engine has so much power that it just keeps on accelerating until it hits the governor at 185 KM/H.
It has some traction problems when accelerating quickly, although the Traction Control interferes on time.
Back seats are very comfortable and there is a lot of leg room.
