Bizarre Nameplate Question

As in, I saw a bizarre nameplate and would like some insight as to what it is.

Saw a gold Intrigue, year unknown. Under the "Oldsmobile" nameplate on the trunk lid was a rectangular nameplate, gold and black, with very small lettering which was illegible at night.

What was this?

Not factory! I would assume it's a dealer nameplate.

Incorrect about not being factory. It was installed on the car at the factory if so equipped. Part of a euro suspension package on the later built cars.

I have it on my 02 Intrigue. It was Oldsmobile's name for the newly introduced stability control system, known by stabilitrack on some other GM divisions.

I stand corrected! I thank you for the pictures of it. I have never seen one before and was not looking that hard also!

In doing some digging it looks like 98-99 were called autobahn package with a 140 mph speedo and 1" larger disc than the standard 11" also should have a 3.91 axle ratio over the standard 3.05.

Anyone has seen this emblem on those units?
