1987 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale Brougham review from North America

"If you see this car for sale, it is definitely worth the buy"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

AM/FM radio antenna is stuck in the "up" position.

Cassette player does not work. I did install a CD player, and the speakers work like brand new.

Brakes are not the best. It takes about 20 feet to stop the car from 35 mph.

The hood is very hard to open. The release does not work or something, because it won't seem to open.

Air conditioning is busted.

Passenger side power window button doesn't work.

Windows are extremely slow. They also squeak when rising.

Passenger seat is hard to move.

General comments?

First off, this car is almost everything I ever asked for in a car. Although it does not have air conditioning, it has power everything which is extremely convenient.

When I inherited this car, I was surprised it was a 1987, it seems like it should be a 1995...or somewhere in the 90s. It even has power seats and cruise control!

I don't think I have the words to explain the comfort level in this car. I could fall asleep in it any time. I recently vaccuumed the car, and cleaned it, and it was amazing. It looked brand new on the inside.

I think the heater makes up for the loss of the air conditioning. Once I turn it on, its hot. Its very nice to have on the way to school. But, the windshield defroster does not work too well.

This is seriously one of fastest cars I have ever driven. Yeah, its big, but when I slam on the gas, its at 45 mph in no time. That car usually beats anyone that wants to test it. Its also filled with power. I open the windows, and just listen to that engine roar. The control in this car is amazing.

This car has been running fine for 17 years, and I anticipate it will be for another 17 years, but hopefully by then, I will have moved onto a newer car, with air conditioning of course.

I would recommend this car to anyone. It is completely amazing.
