  Best Car Ive Owned - 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By KPDenny - November 9 - 10:00 am

  I have owned seven cars since I have been driving. I must admint that thisis the most reliable and fun to drive vehicle that I have ever owned. It is botha sporty vehicle and a family vehicle. It has plent of room and power. I had been looking for a Ford Crown Victoria prior to seeing the Oldsmobile Intrigue. I found that the Intrigue had more power and was more fun to drive.

  COST PER MILE - 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By Somone - February 7 - 2:00 am

  bought my car used at 20Kmile for about $13K, now it is 115Kmile and going. no trouble. Excellent bargain!thought about trading it in, say for a Passat ($,ignition coil mess), Camry ($ for the V6, insurance, premium gas), Accord ($for V6, insurance cost, premium gas), Maxima (rented one, it is OK, $$$ for the car, premium gas). It could be 10 cents per mile if I drive it to 130K. the old 3800 II V6 (also in the buick regal, LeSabre) have lasted to 250K and up. If I bought a new maxima/camry/accord for about $22K, I will have to drive them to about 190K- 220K to achieve that 10 cents a mile, and higher insurance and gas $.

  One of GMs Best - 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By hdvorin - February 6 - 1:33 am

  Bought this car new for my wife. After 7 years it still looks better than most GM cars on the road and handles like a sports car. We chose it over a Grand Prix (better interior) or a Regal (better handling/ride). Only consistent problem has been clogged fuel injectors which required periodic cleaning. If Oldsmobile had made more like this one, they might still be in business. About to trade in on a Buick LaCrosse and we hope its as reliable.

  Great Car - 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By The Real AROD - December 1 - 10:00 am

  I bought a used Intrigue just a few weeks back, and I am really enjoying it. I have the 3800 V-6 and the car really moves. Handles great. Have gotten tons of compliments on the look of the car.

  Still Like this car - 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By Dave Skogley - September 12 - 2:00 am

  I bought this when my Subaru wagons engine died in e. Tenn., (still havent hit 100k miles on 2 Ive owned). Sonny, the owner of the towing/repair center only had 1 car to sell, a silver intrigue, w/147,000 miles on, and I had to go 650 miles back to Chicago with my friend bill & 2 bicycles & gear. The car was leaking oil/coolant, had the warped plastic engine manifold, no ac, worn ignition switch, broken stabilizer bar, rusted muffler, worn tie rods/engine mounts, tension pulley, (from the oil). All were replaced & the transmission was rebuilt too. But the interior & body are in decent shape, and with all the trouble I was getting 31 highway mpg! I feel I have a new car now, and hope to reach 200k miles.

  5+ years with a 98 Intrigue - 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By dekindy - July 4 - 10:00 am

  Car had drive shaft clunking noise, was replaced but would still intermittently clunk for no reason and occasionally would get a dramatic pull when backing down the driveway. Engine gaskets leaked. 44k, 56k, and 70k. GM paid half the cost for first two repairs. Car also had electrical short and all the dash lights would flash and gauges would jump occasionally.

  Been A Good Car - 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue
  By hogan01 - April 5 - 11:29 pm

  I bought this car in 2006 and I have no complaints. It is starting to fall apart but I expected this to happen soon with over 241,000 miles on it. It has always been reliable Abd I have no complaints
