1982 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale review from North America
"Cheap reliable pimp ride"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
2 alternators due to my audio system.
Front brakes.
Gas tank.
General comments?
This car, in my opinion is up for the best car ever built.I've had a lot of cars in my day and this is the best one I've had so far.I'm extremely hard on cars and this one keeps on going without using a drop of oil. My delta can run about 130 mph and it feels like your going 35 its as smooth as glass. The only thing I don't like about mine is it has bad pickup because it's a large car with only a 307.I paid $400 dollars for it (best money I ever spent).I pick up girls all the time I'm proud to own it.
