Very Nice - 1998 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight
By acnoogs - September 9 - 10:00 amSimply, it runs like a dream. For a car not built for performance, it performs. And what a comfort it is to drive in this one. A little boxy, but otherwise a stylish car.

Love My `98 `88LS - 1998 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight
By Jobuck1 - July 18 - 3:56 pmI bought this car used last year from a dealership and they put me in touch with the previous owner. Luckily he was an older fellow who had bought the car new and had taken excellent care of it. All the servicing done on time, and logged in the owners manual. I was able to pick right up where he left off. About once a month I make a trip up through the Ozark mountains on a twisting, up and down highway and I love the way the car handles and performs. I think that 3.8L is one of the better motors ever manufactured. Plenty of power and and decent gas mileage. I get around 19mpg in town and 26mpg on the highway. All in all Ive been very satisfied with this car.

A Good Solid Lux Automobile - 1998 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight
By Robbed718 - June 12 - 3:23 pmI bought this car about a week ago now with 54,000 miles on it. It was from a little old lady who lost her vision and the car was rarely used. I bought it and brought it to the mechanic. Apparently the V5 A/C Compressors on this car are horrible. It is making a sound when the belt turns but I ordered one online for only 200 bucks (Mechanics shop wants $450 just for the compressor) I heard these are great cars esp with the 3800 thats why I bought it. I plan on keeping it a while, it drives beautifully. Very Comfortable, decent gas mileage and fun to drive. Its basically like driving a big leather couch with lots of power. Overall I am very happy so far and it is worth the money

Update on Eighty Eigh LS - 1998 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight
By robbed718 - June 26 - 4:49 amRobbed718 back. Update on the Oldsmobile Eighty Eight I bought with 53,000 miles in March of 2010 from the old lady whom lost her vision. The car now has 77,000 miles on it. Ive had to replace a belt tensioner, tires and a sepentine belt since. Everything is still holding up good on the car, engine is still powerful and not bad on gas. (I get about 24mpg) . I think I could get 175-200K out of this baby. Im gonna plan on it!

Awesome Car - 1998 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight
By hayley - January 27 - 7:03 pmFor my first car its a good one. My grandparents had it before me and had no problems what so ever. Its fun to drive and handles well. It gets me through any kind of weather well. The only thing Ive had to replace on it was the battery. I also changed out the tape player/radio with a CD player/radio. Over all its an awesome car. I would recommend it to anyone.

Loved my little old car! - 1998 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight
By kmfresh - October 29 - 8:04 pmI absolutely loved my eighty-eight. Only problem I ever had with it was the water pump breaking and the belt breaking (only one-time fixes for me). I drove 12 hour round trips at least once a month and drove it every single day around town, to and from work, and across state for over 2 years and it always got me where I needed to go, no problems. Very reliable and dependable. I miss my Rico. Id definitely buy another one if I got the chance.

1998- 88 Oldsmobile reliabiliy. - 1998 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight
By Richard C. Schaeffer - July 14 - 2:30 amThe 1998 Oldsmobile 88 is the most reliable automobile my wife and I have owned in the past fifty years. It has retained its clear coat paint finish without being housed in a garage.

Bring Em Back - 1998 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight
By art thomson - July 7 - 8:03 pmThe 1998 Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight is my kind of car. Its fun to drive, and has lots of power. Thats it. The down side: the plastic cup holders are lousy. They broke off and are long gone. The radio is very good, though I wish there had a CD player since the cassette player broke. I would buy another Olds if only they were still making them. I guess it will be a Buick or Caddy for me, since I only buy American.
