Solid
Bought this car new in 1993 and its still running with over 136,000 miles on it. The reliability has not been spectacular, but if it is well taken care of, it will serve you well. The V6 is just awesome. People don't expect it to be a fast car, but the engine is strong and the body is light, making it surprisingly quick. It will blow the doors off most of the 4 bangers on the road today. Various trim bits have fallen off and the dashboard rattles like crazy, but the car grows on you.
Rust and TPS problems
Doors and fenders have rust problem (frequent touchup needed) and it needed a TPS (throttle position sensor), which was hard to diagnose. Mechanics thought it was fuel system problem for a long time. Otherwise, it's been a good car. Repairs so far: TPS, alternator, exhaust system, brakes. Not bad for 136,000 miles.

Transmission is best
Transmission is amazingly smooth. I do not feel any shift change when accelarating from 0-60. Bought it in 2003 when it was 60000 miles. Now it is 130000. I used as spare car.
reliable car
I bought my Oldsmobile Cutlass with 110,000 miles on the odometer, had a few major items replaced (alternator, harmonic balancer) but for the most part has been a good car for my needs.
the worst car ever
this car has been nothing but trouble since the day i got it. everything in the engine needed to either be repplaced or fixed. the car itself is ugly and can barely start and stay that way. howeevr, i will say that it has some pick-up-and-go for such a sad car.
