1988 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale review from North America

"Lasts a long time, and will run hard and dependable for that long time"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Transmittion started to slip about 200 miles ago, door panels are falling apart, "service engine soon" light constantly stays on, rust in the normal spots, muffler bit the dust 2000 miles ago, and today, the engine was making REALLY weird noises on the way to school, then on my way home, something blew. I abandoned it and got a ride home, and later tonight I'm having someone look at it.

General comments?

I've read all the other posts, and it seems that everyone has their own thoughts, I agree for the most part with them all in general, good car with good performance, but just doesn't look that great. The guy who said everything goes out around 120,000 was right. I think with my car that was due to the oil not being changed for 20,000 miles. (moron who had the car before my family) I was hard on the car, really hard, and it held up really well, I took it mudding, down gravel roads that people said only a huge truck would make it down, I made it just find through mudding and the gravel road. When you get to know how to handle the car, in an empty parking lot, you can get it to spin around and do half shitties and be able to really move the car. I did illegal street racing with it, I beat a 99 grand prix, a 98 grand am, a 2001 Chevy s-10 and a 94 Ford Taurus SHO, so when I say the cars got some power, take my word for it, it does.
