1996 Oldsmobile LSS review from North America
"One fast car that is better than the regular 88"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing except I think the transmission is ready to go. That's why I bought the warranty.
Vibration is bad on the highway.
General comments?
The car I had and still have is a 1993 Oldsmobile 88 Ls. I bought the 1997 LSS because I wanted the sports version of my 88 which is the LSS supercharged.
First off this car is very fast. It throws you back in you're seat without mercy. 0-60 mph for this car arrives in 6.8 seconds.
It has every option, including the moon-roof.
Even with the sport tuned suspension it doesn't handle much better than the 88.
The seats are much harder than on my 88.
It is much quieter at idle than the 88.
Looks very aggressive and has an eleigant interior.
