I also have a 2000 Grand marquis, my general purpose car and a like new 2007 Grand Marquis, last of the large rear drive V8 cars. My 1970 Cutlass is purely a toy used during nice weather but still driven almost weekly except for the winter months.

I think any self-proclaimed Olds guy who owns only ONE Olds should be shunned...kidding

My cars are listed below my name - welcome to CO. If you are gaining interest in Oldmobiles, this is the place to be.

I probably should be shunned, I have an Accord and a Volvo. I prefer driving manual transmissions and GM doesn't make any cars I like or can afford with them. I can honestly say though, I didn't just buy a Honda because it's a Honda and it will last forever It's an 04 Accord with 50,000 miles and already has begun to rust at the rear quarter

No more real V8 Oldsmobiles suitable for year round use exist in New England, After my 88 caprice rotted out I went to Ford because GM abandoned real cars. on my list was an eighties rear drive Delta 88, that was one of my favorite later model Olds but I couldn't find one. if I ever do come across another nice V8 olds I certainly won't be using it throughout the winter. My 70 Cutlass will just have to do, no place to keep another classic car, for the moment.

The 98 intrigue is the only one I have left. Maybe next time I'll get one worth fixing.

But it is still an Olds!
Anyone with an interest and/or passion for Oldsmobiles are welcomed here.

Driving an import is acceptible, providing it is used for sacrificial purposes...

I have 2 Oldsmobiles, one Caddy, and an old Ford.
Also a Harley for 2-wheeled fun!
