  Should Have been a Cutlass - 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By love my olds - July 30 - 10:00 am

  Bought this one the week after GM decided to kill the brand. The 5/60 Protection Plan combined with excellent pricing made this the quickest new car purchase I have ever made. Ive now owned this for over 2 and 1/2 years and have done nothing except oil changes and a set of brakes and tires at 50k. For a guy who hasnt kept a car for more than 2 years sence college, I cant imagine trading this one in anytime soon.

  Dependable and great mileage - 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By antoine c - July 25 - 12:06 pm

  I bought my Intrigue with 42,000 miles on it and its been great. It was a rental car at one point based on the Carfax report. I just hit 103,000 miles with no significant issues. All it has needed is new tires, new brakes and a serpentine belt. The car is bullet proof! I keep track of mileage and I got 28 MPG in my last fillup in mixed city/hwy driving. The cars handling is still top notch with over 100,000 miles on the odometer. I originally bought the car after renting various Intrigues for work. The handling was what impressed me at first.

  Pretty good car - 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By loriedave - June 29 - 2:00 am

  Very happy with it overall. Very smooth and reliable engine. Ride is firm but comfortable for us. We bought it with 31500 miles and put about 45000 on it in one year with no major hassles. We had to replace a power steering pump early on, and the cruise control module on the steering wheel. Our dealership was very good about the repairs.

  Its a Great Old Man Car - 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By CanonGuy - June 8 - 6:00 pm

  I purchased this car with 155,000 miles on it. It is a rather large car, but it gets excellent gas mileage. I averaged low 20s in the city and high 20s on the highway. I mainly used it for winter, cause its fwd and with snow tires I managed to go everywhere. I replaced the rotors at 164,000 miles. It needed new belt a little while after that at 189,000 miles. The intake manifold went and it cost $1,500 for new engine, but considering the miles, I sold it to my mechanic. I see that hes been driving it around, so it must be doing good.

  A decent car if you buy a cheap used one - 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By someone behind you - June 5 - 2:00 am

  Could have been a great car if Oldsmobile would have stayed around. Steering is sort of strange, I feel pulses when I turn, it is not very smooth. Dont know if this a problem with all of them. Power and fuel econ. are very good for its size. Seats on the GX are uncomfortable. Transmission is not the greatest, hesitates when you accelerate at higher speeds, like its hunting for gears.

  Should have gotten rid of Buick - 1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By johnryan1077 - May 27 - 2:16 am

  I have owned my 99 Intrigue for 2 years and it only has 78,000 miles on it and it drives like new. I realize it is going to be 10 years old next year but it drives so well and its looks stood the test of time. I have the 3.5 liter engine and it cooks on the highway. I think GM made a mistake buy getting rid of Oldsmobile instead of Buick. How many ten year old Buicks do you see on the road compared to Aleros and Intrigues. Great vehicle!

  Good sedan gone bye-bye - 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By Olds31 - May 20 - 10:00 am

  This is my first and probably my last Olds. It was a good choice I think. No real glaring faults with the car but the exterior design could of been a little better. Thinking about putting some after market fog lamps on the car. If I trade it in, I probably go with either Toyota or Honda. Sorry GM, Ford lovers out there.

  Absolutely decent midsize sedan - 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By gabe - May 18 - 9:50 pm

  I bought my 01 Intrigue in 2001, as a program car, (28K mi), because it seemed a very good deal (half price). I didnt need another car, but , a few years later, Im still happy with this purchase. It was one of the sportiest American midsize sedans of the day. The major critique it received was about finish quality; however, all I could find wrong with my car was a side dash plastic panel fitted poorly. GM management should have kept the oldest car brand existing, not dump it. I believe they should have upgraded the Oldsmobile lineup, instead of coming up with the dubious GTO, SSR, etc...

  Not Your Fathers Oldsmobile - 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By Burt Swanson - May 12 - 10:00 am

  This car has been an outstanding vehicle. Not wanting to buy an Oldsmobile, mostly from lack of anyone younger than myself ever having owned one and not being able to get a good feel for them, I acquiesced to my wifes desire to purchase it. I bought it used with slighlty less than 40k on it. In the nearly two years I have owned it we have pushed the mileage to 77k with no problems other than a derailed coffe cup holder that took two minutes to fix. Fit and finish are good and the car is a joy to drive. Quick, responsive and good on gas, it fits my family of four quite nicely. I would have NO problem entertaining the purchase of another Oldsmobile product.
