Faults:

Had to replace the rotting original exhaust system at 100,000 miles.

Had to replace engine mounts at 102,000 miles.

General Comments:

This car performs very well I think, considering it's size versus it's power train.

My fuel mileage ranges from 17 to 24 miles per gallon. Which I believe is very fair for a car it's size and age.

This is one of the most comfortable cars I've owned to date.

I also feel the car has been very dependable as I have had no operating problems, having put over 16,000 miles on it in just 8 months.

Faults:

Doors starting to dry rot.

Hard to find replacement doors!

Rear bumper could be replaced due to rust damage.

So far so good.

I feel the same way most of you guy's do about these cars. I really lucked out. I purchased an 85 Two-door custom with the 307 Olds 5.0. Very minuet and surface and edge rust from sitting, except bottom of doors are starting to dry rot, but still swing on the hinges and close like their new, could use a new rear bumper too. Paint went soft on the trunk, it's kind of dull. Interior is immaculate, no burns, stains or smell. The AC and power windows work perfect. The Power steering is like a hot knife through soft butter. It has a "confirmed" 50,500 original miles on it (I have all the service records since 86 (Told you I lucked out!) ). From driving 3 Chevy 2.8's to this as my first 8 cyln..I'm in love..! My stomach turns to jelly driving this vehicle, it's like the same feeling I get when I see my woman walking around the house nude. Great comfortable vehicle with great gas mileage and Emissions for such a heavy car. Needs a new stereo though, it still has an ac delco AM only tuner with two speakers in the front(finding myself listening to more soul, funk and disco lately, which is kinda hilarious to me, driving this big car). And what kinda guy doesn't appreciate a four 1/2 body trunk (five with out the spare..!)? The only thing that might be a prob is finding Doors.

Faults:

I have had no problems, only regular maintenance.

The first time I saw this car I was impressed with the classic lines and styling. The chrome trim really adds to the overall look.

It is 2-tone green, pin stripe down each side, and a mint green interior.

When I saw the interior for the first time I couldn't believe how perfect it was. The driver's seat wasn't (and still hasn't) even begun to wear. The overstuffed interior is the most comfortable seats I have EVER sat in. I never knew a car could be so comfortable. The only way to make it better is to install a TV!

When I went for a test drive I fell hopelessly in love with it. It drove like it was brand new! I had to buy it.

The 5L V8 has great power, but is a little slow off the line. It could use a bigger engine, but it already eats enough gas! Highway driving is what this beast does best. She just glides over the road with ease, laughing at me, taunting me to give her a real challenge. I can't hear the engine, except those rare times that I floor it.

Many people just stare in total awe when I pass by. Most motorists either move out of the way or keep their distance. This car demands respect in the the biggest way.
