Nice RUST FREE example of the last of GM's big elegant luxury coupes. Two owner West Coast Oldsmobile Toronado Brougham with 66,100 original miles. All original ! Purchased from a West Coast dealer who bought from the original owner.  Rare Medium Green Metallic exterior with Black pillow interior. Options included twin power seats, padded vinyl roof and much more. Original purchase paperwork including Invoices, Window Sticker (see photo) and Owners Manual.

Good: Sorry to repeat, RUST FREE, new battery, wires and starter. Tires and brakes in good condition. Interior in good condition with original floor mat. No cracks in dash. Vinyl top in good condition also, no tears or cracks. Runs and drives well. Power windows, power seats and antenna all work. Does not appear to have any leaks.

Opportunity for Improvement: As you can see from the pictures the paint needs a good buffing to bring it back to life. Rear bumper extensions need replacing (see photo of rear of car) but a new set is included in the price. A/C will need some work and heat/cooling fan not blowing.  Rear exhaust resonators are making a little noise too.  

I have owned car for approximately a year. Selling due to having to many projects. Car has been shipped to Chicago area, so easy shipping for those in the Mid-West. Or you could drive it if not to far away.  This would be a good base project for anyone interested in restoring one of the big GM coupes.

Trying to be as honest as I can with the description. If you would like more photos let me know of what and I will add them.  Low reserve, Thanks for looking!

Jay Leno bangs up his own Toronado in GT6

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

Ever 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 2014

General 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.

Ferrari FF pitted against Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser in crazy Generation Gap comparison

Thu, 13 Nov 2014

The folks behind Generation Gap have lost their minds with this latest video. The goal here is to determine the ultimate family cruiser, but the choices are what you would least expect, with a heavily modded 1970 Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser going up against a 2012 Ferrari FF.
You might anticipate an over-40-year-old Oldsmobile to pale in comparison to any modern Ferrari, but this wagon has a ton of secrets under its skin thanks to Lingenfelter. First, it packs a supercharged LS3 V8 with a claimed 650 horsepower and a six-speed manual gearbox. That big upgrade in power is further helped with air suspension and massive Wilwood disc brakes. The result is nothing short of deafening, with blaring yelps whenever the driver even nudges the accelerator.
The alternative sounds just as good, albeit in very different way. The Ferrari's 6.3-liter V12 pumps out 651 hp and 504 pound-feet with a part-time all-wheel drive system. While the FF lacks a lot of the hauling ability of the Olds, it makes up for the deficit in handling, luxury, and in many eyes, simply by having the famous prancing horse on the grille.
