Review
Bought car for $6K and love it. Changed
ignition module and horn stopped
working. Had to install universal dash-
board horn to pass inspection. Cost
$65. Module cost $250. It just runs
like a charm.Has security chip and
security theft protect radio. Had local
co.repair drivers seat to firm it up.
Seat makes popping noise. Plastic near
windshield vibrated, so put cardboard
there and noise stopped. Engine is
GM3500 and runs flawlessly. That's why
I bought car. I expect 10 more years on
it. Electric windows,seats, antenna
work flawlessly. Don't let gas get to
empty. This car is indestructible. Love
it!

3.8L II V6 is strongest motor developed
by GM. Impressive performance, economy
and duarbility. Vehicle has 64k miles
and drives like it were new. Style is
acceptable and performance is better.
GM had a winner with this combo.

This has been an excellent vehicle for
us. We purchased at 52000 miles and it
now has 123000. Excellent road car.
Gets 27-30 miles per gallon on highway.
3800 v6 is troublefree. We have had few
repairs other than oil changes and
spark plugs and recently a master
cylinder. We are still on the original
exhaust system. The interior is
comfortable with the leather. All the
bells and whistles in a used car for
only$11750 three years ago- our best
buy in a used car. We plan on keeping
three more years.

I bought this car with 115000 miles on
it. It now has 141600 on it and has
been fairly trouble free. Its fuel
efficiancy for a large car is
remarkable. The 3800 series II moves
this big car very well. I have been
very happy with it since the day I
bought it and I'm afraid to get rid of
it someday. Other than the upper intake
plenum blowing apert one time and
sucking all the coolant into the
engine, I have'nt had any other big
problems with my 88.

Review
I have had an excellent experience. It has been fun and I have enjoyed the high performance of the Supercharged 3.8L V6. Besides some typical maintenance since it has over 104,000 miles on it. My Olds has been a great vehicle and I plan on keeping this for my kids.
