My overall 1997 oldsmobile lss rating
i love this car, i heard there were only 10,000 made w/the supercharger, i wish olds was still in buisness!
solid choice
we bought this as a nine year old car with only 75,000 km on it (42,000 miles). it has been a very good car with only routine maintenance and very few minor repairs ie brakes/wheel bearing etc. very good gas mileage for size of car and is comfortable to drive as well. not the most "exciting" car to look at but does look sharp when it is shined up.

1997 Olds LSS
Good solid ride with load leveing rear supension. Very nice interior equal to the Cadillac STS. The 240 Hp supercharged engine will out perform the 300 Hp Cadillac Northstar. Highway milage at 75MPH is 30 to 32 MPG which is better than shown on the stickerwhich shows 29MPG. The only negative comment is the head lights are not good as my Chev. Tahoe. It's too bad GM decided to eliminate this model as I would have bought another one. If interested Pontiac.Buick and the Chevy Impala have the same 3.8 litre supercharged engine but I feel the interiors are not equal to the Olds LSS.
Fun Car
In 60K miles of driving we've only had to replace the fuel pump, sender unit and tires. For a car of its size, the LSS has excellent ride, handling and comfortable seating. At over 35 miles per Imperial gallon, gas mileage is also excellent for a car with this power and size. A great car.
Lots of car for little money
I bought my Olds LSS with 94k miles on it as replacement for my trusty commuter Olds Cutlass Supreme, which died on me at 230k. I didn't really like it at first because of very soft suspension. But ones got used to, it became positive future since I commute 3 hours a day. Now I have 169k miles and car still going strong. The only problem I had with this car was AC clutch. 500 dol. and 2 days later car is back on the road and performing well. I should mention synthetic oil change every 6000 miles. And I'm getting around 28mpg on freeway. GM can build reliable, efficient, luxury cars and you can buy them cheap..
