The Jetstar 1 was definately a Super Car!

They had the same power train as a Starfire, but were at least 200# lighter.
Some came with a Factory 4 Speed. I know a few guys that had these cars and they would tell ya...there wasn't much that would keep up with them...
They just sold one at Volocars in Illinois.

I'm a Big Car Olds guy and had a '65 Starfire, probably my favorite. Now I have a '63 88 but am trying to find another '65 Starfire. There were even a few of them with Factory 4-Speeds!

Many a guy with a so called "muscle car" has been rudely awaken by one of these Luxury Cars. I worked at one of the biggest Cad/Olds Dealers in 1964-66 and 1969-70. Although I loved the midsize Muscle Cars....the Big ones had it all. Now they just need to start making parts available.

All of the Big Boys had a Big Super Car....Pontiac Catilina 2+2(tri power)...Buick Riviera Sport (dual quads) even Cadi and Toro!
