89 & 90 years were the last good stuff Olds Line made. 91 was not good and a different car altogether. I still have my 89....rust free and goes anywhere....300,000 kms and burns no oil.
Love this baby!

1990 Oldsmobile Ninety-Eight Regency Brougham 4dr Sedan
Just bought one with 150,000 original miles for 600 bux. Interior is brand new condition. No rust . One small dent. Had to replace the harmonic balancer and it runs beautifully! Evert button works. Every light and signal works. Could not be happier!
Best car ever

1990 Oldsmobile Ninety-Eight Regency Brougham 4dr Sedan
This car has taken me 200,000 miles
with NO major repairs-- grease & oil
every 5,000, breakes, batery, etc. you
would normally expect. Bought it used
in '96 with 30,000 for $9000-- best
$9000 I ever spent. 8 years later and
170,000 miles later and absolutely no
regrets
