Well i only had it for a month or so, but for that time it was a very fun car to own. As far as performance goes, i have one word for it: boat. 3800 Engine wasn't bad and had a lot of torque, but mpgs were nothing to write home about. The exterior was very clean with classic american sedan lines, and inside the crushed velour was like a couch. With 180k miles it had to go sometime, and like many 80's american cars, the frame rusted out. But for the month that i had it, i loved it mainly because it had so much character.Oct 08, 2009

The 3.8L V6 makes this granny car's acceleration amazing considering what the car looks like which is somewhat ugly. The car was very surprising. The most comfortable seats i have ever sat in. Braking power is avg.The handling of a boat. Which is what this car is a metal boat.However the best cruising car i have ever driven just sit back and let the car drive you. At 28mph this car is a good gas saver, but push the peddle down and this front wheel car can actually burn out in to second gear. It does have a terrible tranny but a good car u can work on.

I had a Royale Broughm trim, and it had these awesome plush seats. It was my first car and was a steal at $800. It had the old reliable GM 3800 and it ran forever before my brother finally totalled ol' Agnes which was the name the original owner gave it. It was a pimp mobileApr 19, 2008

I have a 1989 oldsmobile royale brougham delta 88. My car wont start and none of the lights turn on. My car wont lock automatically. The battery still has juice in it. Idk what to do. Fuses are good.

Any ideas what could be wrong with the car? Been told it might be the alternator. Could that be it?
