Used Oldsmobile Cars for Sale Nationwide

I put a total of 3,000 miles on this vehicle. I owned it 6 months and it spent 4 of those 6 months either in the shop or broken down in my driveway. It is the biggest piece of garbage I have ever owned and I was never happier when the dealership came to repossess it!

Great car for elderly folks. Very safe and reliable. Drove like bigger sedans and is built quite heavy. Exterior styling is not the best but not the worst either. It is a very practical car with enough room for taller people. The backseat can be somewhat of a challenge to get out of but is quite comfortable for long trips. Excellent transmission and awesome acceleration for 4-cyl. Very cost efficient in the shop and at the pump.

Very reliable, not much HP. Does have some get up and go when you need it, but is by no means a high performance car. It isn't that good looking but also not the worst car on the road, and the fact that it has survived Maine for more than 12 years has to say something about the craftsmanship that went into the build.

well, before i had my accident, it was a beautiful car. 1997 olds achieva SL special edition w/ only 57k miles on it. it was a great car and then i picked a bad day to drive it. i give it 5 stars b/c it WAS a great car. the only thing that sucked was the way the front bumper jus disinagrated wen i hit the tree. that's y i rate it so high. i rated it on how it USED to be

I was a little afraid before the test drive that I wouldn't fit into this smaller Olds (I am 6'5"), but I just make it in. IT is definitely an old lady car, but I like that so it fits. To me it looks classic, unlike lots of new cars out there, so I was drawn to it. That, and it had 37,000 miles and was only $3,000, so it was too good to pass up. Have been very pleased with it, even through the few storms that we've had lately, it hasn't let me down at all. The only problems I have are the relatively cheap interior, which surprises me from a maker like Olds. The seats are a little thin and unforgiving, and the legroom is a bit of an issue for a taller guy like me, but an extra stop on a longer trip takes care of it. Everything I've found is that you can get a great deal on one if you find it, and I would definitely recommend picking it up if you don't mind being mistaken for an 80 year old on the road. Added - recently had an issue where the car would start, but would shut down and not idle for more than a second. After lots of cursing, a day sitting, and a lot of research online (thankfully BEFORE towing it to the garage for an expensive fix that wouldn't work), I heard that the over-zealous security system sometimes thinks you're stealing the car, so it will shut off the fuel injector. To temporarily fix this problem, put the key in and turn, but don't crank to start it. Leave it in, usually 5-10 minutes, and the red 'security' light will stop flashing, and you should be able to turn it on and run normally. The long term fix involves cutting a wire and mounting a switch to manually engage and deactivate the system, but I have yet to attempt this as it has not happened again as of yet.
