My transmission went out at about 150,000 miles. I also had to replace my vinyl top around this time. I haven't had any major problems other than driving wear and tear.Tires, belts, hoses. I drive this car almost ever day.
This car is truly a classic I love this car, friends ask why don't I get rid of this car. And my answer is why?My 98 has everything a new car has, power windows, seats, door locks, air condition cruise control, everything.And my car doesn't look like every other car that you see.

Yeah! Sure! A 1984 in today's world is like a Roman Chariot
compared to contemporary cars!!!
These big-body Oldsmobiles from the 80's offer great performance, comfort, reliability, and the best safety in an accident. And they have something the modern cars lack: CLASS. Screw these newer plastic cars which crumple like a tin can upon 15 mph impact, I'll go with a REAL car with REAL steel. I've owned three 84-85 Delta 88's and 98 Regencys. Wouldn't buy any other type of car. Roman chariot my a**, these older cruisers are FAR superior to the newer models which are all computerized, and much more complicated and expensive to repair. Your Olds is a modern-day classic.
I bought and drove a 1984 98 Regency back in the day and could't have made a better selection. The car had class and alway's seem to turn head's no matter where I rolled. I alway's kept the car in mint cindition and waxed to the max. The Regency Brougham was a very smooth ride and rode with comfort and I alway's felt safe while in the car. I did a trade in to roll in a 91 Old's 98 Touring Sedan and I continue to enjoy this one just as well. Both car's were 4 door's which seem to allow for more room.I'm about to roll in my 98 now so to all Regency owner's keep it going.
