That Old 442 feeling is back...1986 Delta 88?!

Was looking for commercials of late 80s/early 90s Olds and Buick coupes of the Delta/Lesabre/Century/Ciera variety and found this:

I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything when I saw this for the first time. Perhaps the only thing worse than the "Not your Father's Oldsmobile" spots is one comparing a V6 FWD car to the 442s of old. I always liked the styling of these cars (and built the Wynn's Lake Speed and Hardees Cale Y. '87 Delta models), but can't understand the comparison, esp, when there WAS a 442 available in 1986 (another wheezer).

Still looking for that W88 NASCAR "Sport Appearance" kit too...
