1992 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser Base Wagon 4-door 5.7l on 2040-cars
Dallas, Texas, United States
|
For Sale: 1992 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser 5.7L V8 145,600 miles The cleanest completely stock long roof in the country: probably yes. Park this car next to any Ferrari out there and see who gets the first smile. If smiles per miles is your game, you will win every time. If you are looking for great gas mileage, well, this has that, too. On my inaugural road trip in this car I drove from Middlesex, VA to Dallas, TX, and maxed at 25mpg. I've never gotten less than 17mpg in the city. Zero problems. It sounds great, has no problem getting up to speed, and it only brings the right kind of attention. I found this car at a dealership in North Carolina and I had a great experience with the guys there. They supplied me with a CarFax (which I will supply for you) and replaced the battery at no cost just because the month/year indicator was missing. I replaced the rear brake shoes and idler arm before having it inspected. It passed with flying colors. This Custom Cruiser was a 1-Owner car for 137,000 miles. Rumor has it that the original owner used the car solely as a Harley Davidson event cruiser/road tripper. I left the Harley Davidson sticker attached mainly for posterity, and because I really appreciate that the first owner owned and maintained the car in such a meticulous way. It's not easy to keep the shopping carts at bay, for the first year let alone the next twenty. I bought the Custom Cruiser solely for the purpose of hauling my stuff from Virginia to Texas. With 8x4 feet of flat storage, and similar old soul virtues, I quickly fell for the car and had no plans to sell it until I landed a great new job. With a company car in tow, and plans for a bike build in the near future, I would like to find a happy new owner for *Patty* before the summer gets underway. If you're looking for a Custom Cruiser, or even a Buick Roadmaster or Chevrolet Caprice wagon, you've already found the right car. It's just a great car with serious charisma. Cool Things: A/C BLOWS COLD!!! 1 of 12,010 total (way more rare than its Buick and Chevrolet siblings) girls love it, old people love it, cops love it, everybody loves it brand new set of white letter BFG Radial T/As deluxe tow package (cool looking wheels) Pioneer head unit w/remote (CD, AUX, USB - DOES NOT have bluetooth) all power locks, windows, and mirrors work cruise control works hidden hitch 1 1/4" full interior cargo cover 17/25 city/highway Not as Cool Things: right horn button is chipped (the top left corner is broken off) radio antenna will not retract (I clipped it close to the base and rubber capped it) scratches in left rear passenger window tint (not a deal breaker, but could be re-done) rear window intact but wiper is not working front window washers not spraying **dent in bottom left corner of tailgate (cannot be fixed without cut and spray, currently resides under American flag) I can also provide a copy of the title with any pertinent information, as well as the CarFax and any additional photos upon request. I'm motivated to sell so please make your best offer and I will try to respond in a timely fashion. Shipping and other requests will be considered on a case by case basis. The car is currently located in Dallas, Texas. Thank you all for looking. Jeremy tags: station wagon, wagon, oldsmobile, custom cruiser, buick, roadmaster, chevrolet, caprice |

This Or That: 1980 Oldsmobile 442 vs. 1989 BMW 635CSi [w/poll]
Thu, 09 Oct 2014The last time I roped a coworker into an automotive debate, I lost. Resoundingly, I might add. Still, 2,385 voters chose to cast their lots for the Fiat 500 Abarth, as opposed to 5,273 choosing the Ford Fiesta ST, and so I can rest easy in the knowledge that at least 30 percent of you, dear readers, see things my way. I still like to think we have more fun, too.
My loss in the first round of our This or That series, in which two Autoblog editors pick sides on any given topic and then attempt to explain why the other is completely wrong, didn't stop me from picking another good-natured fight, this time with Senior Editor Seyth Miersma. Last time, our chosen sides were eerily similar in design, albeit quite different in actual execution. This time, our vehicular peculiarities couldn't seemingly fall any further from one another: A 1980 Oldsmobile 442 wouldn't seem to match up in comparison to a 1989 BMW 635CSi.
How did we come up with such disparate contenders? Simple, really. Seyth and I mutually agreed to choose a car that's currently for sale online. It had to be built and sold in the 1980s, and it had to be a coupe. The price cap was set at $10,000. The fruits of our searching labors will henceforth be disputed, with Seyth on the side of the Germans, and myself arguing in favor of the Rocket Olds. Am I setting myself up for another lopsided loss?
Jay Leno bangs up his own Toronado in GT6
Wed, 11 Dec 2013Ever since Gran Turismo 4, Jay Leno has had at least one of his cars included in the popular racing simulator (starting with the Tank Car), and more of his machines appears in Gran Turismo 6. They include this nose-heavy, front-wheel-drive V8-powered muscle car. Yes, that aptly describes a 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado - except Leno's is rear-wheel drive. And it has a Cadillac CTS-V race engine modified to pump out 1,070 horsepower.
For the latest Jay Leno's Garage episode, he takes his real Toronado out for a cruise and then drives the virtual one like he stole it, accruing some body damage along the way. Leno also drives the virtual supercar Mercedes-Benz designed for GT6, the AMG Vision Gran Turismo Concept that debuted at the LA Auto Show, along with the real one, which is a 1:1-scale model. The model is radio-controlled and equipped with a small electric motor, sufficient to move it on and off of auto show floors.
Head below to watch the episode, which includes a few words from GT6 creator Kazunori Yamauchi.
GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
