Oldsmobile Rocket Intrigue
The Oldsmobile 3.5L V6 (Ward's 10 best engines 1999) paired with the electronic automatic tranny is exceptional. Underrated at 215Hp more like 240-250HP. People have been having alternator short problems with the lights dimming on the Intrigue. My flasher unit is intermittently faulty, but this is a previous known condition with the Grand Am etc. When the windshield wipers are turned off the blades are vertical so I keep them on the lowest setting at all times 18sec. GM made/contracted some electrical components with shoddy solder joints (flasher unit, wiper relay).
Surprising Performance for a GM Sedan
I've had this car for four years. I purchased it used at 30,000 miles and now it has 70,000 miles. It has had no problems thus far. It has great pick-up, with stable handling thanks to its wide tires.
Why did they stop building this car
I love to drive this car. You got the good sound the performance style everything all in one car. I would buy the newest version if they built one in a heartbeat. I have only had electric problems with it but thats it I still love the car.
Still going
This is BB who posted on 3/9/10. My Intrigue is at 266K. Kept asking my mechanic when he thought it would go and he said the motor was still strong. I've had restless nights trying to decide between buying another used 2000 Intrigue or above (noticed below 2000 clist ads had issues) again or a used foreign car. Toyota was the only other my mech rec. My car had 2 repairs costing $200/$400 since last post and then the a/c compressor went out. I did not fix bc IDK when the car will call it quits. Called around and found a 2000 w/115k miles and am getting it this wknd. Knock on wood I have luck w/this one! I'm going to drive the old one til spring since the ac is out and switch to the other car.
2000 Intrigue Never again
Bought my 2000 Intrugue about 6 years ago, had 60,000 miles on it, to date have had to replace. computer and they had to have a mach. from the Cadalac dealership program it because they could't do it.wheel ABS sensor, Altenater, exshaust system, ingnition, wiper motor, AC, had it towed 6 times, wipers again won't shut off, electric gas door was a dumb idea, all in all I wouldn't buy another one, or take it for free, I used to love Old's but not this one.
