1995 Oldsmobile 88 Royale review from North America
"A comfy couch on wheels, to get the groceries!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My front rotors needed replacing at 120 000kms.
My front bearings went at 165 000kms.
Nothing else.
General comments?
I love this car. I wish it had a Supercharged 3800 Series II, but it still has 205hm, and 235pnds of trq.
The car is quick for its big size.
The car is comfortable as well. The fuel economy is great. And it should be noted, this is the base model, and it comes with the 3800 Series II V6! Nice.
The car gives a nice ride.
It is simply a good car. You won't find too many things to complain about it. It is reliable, it has good power, it is roomy and comfortable. What more can I say?
