We just took in a '94 Cutlass with 53k on it. 3.1L. Coupe. Red on red. Clean as well..... a '94 with 53k on it can be. A little surface rust underneath (duh, WI), need a fog light bulb and a set of wipers and THAT'S ALL. Really nice car.

(not actual car, but looks exactly like it, minus the red cloth interior)

Oldsmobile + Wisconsin. You know what to do.

I've got a sweet spot for these for some reason. Those headlights, man. I've always wanted to see someone take the body kit from a similar vintage Grand Prix S.E., stick it on this, fit the hood vents as well, and drop in a s/c 3.8 with a Getrag 5 speed. Most 90's awesome Oldsmobile ever.

I hate that I really kind of like how these cars look.

You can't trade it in?

I was told the last time I asked "Sell your junk outright, I'm not even going to TRY to take it to auction to see what it'll get"

And old girlfriend of mine had one, white with red interior. I actually liked driving it around.

Nowadays Oldsmobiles are far outnumbered by Buicks here. Well, Chevy commercials tell me that Chevy is the #1 selling brand in Wisconsin. But Chevys are generic. Real Wisconsin people drive Buicks.

What's the asking price?

For the Olds? No idea. Isn't stocked in yet.

For the Camry? No idea. Whatever the Olds is.

I'll give you $500.

Per month?

$400. Final offer.

But seriously, what is the asking price? I could really use something a bit more reliable than the BMW Battlewagon and the 924.

I would probably only trade for something in equally DD-able condition that gets good MPG, or for whatever the asking price of the Olds turns out to be... not that it is a reliable good MPG getting DD either.

Ha! Guess that's a no then.

I'm just stuck with the thing until death.... I do want to see it hit 250k though. Maybe by the end of the year...

Oh hey, you found one in non-teal.

Kinja'd!!!

My sister's first car and the first car I ever drove when I was 14. My dad swapped engines, installed convertible tops, and can do just about anything to a car.

I've never heard him swear more than trying to swap the back three spark plugs on that V6. I think he invented words on those days.

Yep, two days to change half the plugs.

My ex-gf had a white one... I know what you mean. I think you're supposed to unbolt the motor mounts and tilt it forward to get to those back plugs on the 3.1L. The 3.4's should be right on top.
