We had boughten our 97 Cutlass with 50k on it. Since then we have put on another 35K. Had to replace the alternator at about 80k and brake pads. Other than that it has been very reliable and a safe car to drive.

Good Car, but Expensive to Maintain

I bought this car new in '97. It has 95,000 miles now. It is surprisingly reliable, it has never failed to start and never had a reason it couldn't be driven. I’ve only had one major problem which was only recommended that it be fixed and that was a coolant leak which is common among GM's. It could be caused by the use of dexcool. I had to get the upper intake gasket replaced ($600). Other then that it's been fine. Its build quality is low, I've had to glue many parts inside the car back together and standard maintenance cost can be high. It eats brakes and tires like no other and maintenance besides an oil change can be impossible, a tune up can be a multi day job.

Overall, has been a good car. Not enough drink holders, etc. on the interior. Plastic knobs and panel inserts fell off. Roomy Interior. Comfortable riding.

I am a very proud owner of this car. It corners like its on rails, and has plenty of power to spare. 2 words, its beautiful. Love the kicked out tail lights and spoiler. body moldings are great looking. This car just looks mean, and means business.
