Possibly the rarest GM Production Car(True Production) ever made!! NO JOKING This car is one of the 204 Quad 442 W41 cars built in 1991 and is also 1 of 15 "C41" cars built as IMSA Firestone Firehawk/SCCA World Challege intended cars. 15-1991 Quad 442's got extra special treatement in order to prepare themselves for the factory OLDS race teams in the day(Hacker Racing, Hemmingson Racing, and "The Great Western Boot Company") Google search "Quad 442 W41 C41" and you will get a good idea of what this car is C41 is the RPO Code for NON-A/C but in these cars that meant a lot more, Different Limited Slip Diff, Different Fuel Tank, Engine oil cooler and a few more Race Only Options This car is order # W41188(Bottom center of window sticker)
This is one of only two C41 cars sold to the general public, and both exist in excellent condition today. The other is owned in Columbus, Ohio by the owner of a GMC(former OLDS) Dealer. One other car C41 car exists in very rough condition with well over 120,000 miles and has some title blemishes as it was a unused race vehicle that Hacker Racing put into civilian service after it went unused and the factory teams switched to the OLDS Achieva in 1992. The rest of the "C41" cars got roll cages and the interiors torn out by the factory race teams.(I have one of those for sale as well right now on EBAY) I purchased this vehicle approx. 5 years ago from its first and original owner I have two 3" binders with every piece of documentation you can imagine and every article written on the W41. Note: Vehicle has Brand New (Less Than 5 Miles) BF Goodrich 215/60R14 Tires. First owner had cheaped out and put 195 series tires on it and they are in some of the pics. Contact me if interested Rob 734-552-7030 and I can fill you in on more details On Oct-28-13 at 21:14:14 PDT, seller added the following information: More pics to follow as soon as I figure out how to add them I do have original Window sticker laminated along with every other piece of paper that was in the car upon delivery. This Car was driven not transported from Lansing assembly plant to Story Olds(Worlds Largest Olds Dealer) in Lansing MI by Olds Exec. I have original sales contract showing Original owner paid nearly 5K over sticker to buy this car(Kind of Crazy) Only water this car has ever seen was getting hand washed. NO DISAPPOINTMENTS Only selling because I don't have time to enjoy and have to many toys and cars and not enough garage space
On Oct-28-13 at 21:21:55 PDT, seller added the following information: This car has never been in an accident or had any body work or paint of any kind. It looks in some underneath pictures to have red overspray but that is an illusion as you are seeing the original paint showing thru the spray on rust proofing(Black) that was applied back in 1991 |

This Or That: 1980 Oldsmobile 442 vs. 1989 BMW 635CSi [w/poll]
Thu, 09 Oct 2014The last time I roped a coworker into an automotive debate, I lost. Resoundingly, I might add. Still, 2,385 voters chose to cast their lots for the Fiat 500 Abarth, as opposed to 5,273 choosing the Ford Fiesta ST, and so I can rest easy in the knowledge that at least 30 percent of you, dear readers, see things my way. I still like to think we have more fun, too.
My loss in the first round of our This or That series, in which two Autoblog editors pick sides on any given topic and then attempt to explain why the other is completely wrong, didn't stop me from picking another good-natured fight, this time with Senior Editor Seyth Miersma. Last time, our chosen sides were eerily similar in design, albeit quite different in actual execution. This time, our vehicular peculiarities couldn't seemingly fall any further from one another: A 1980 Oldsmobile 442 wouldn't seem to match up in comparison to a 1989 BMW 635CSi.
How did we come up with such disparate contenders? Simple, really. Seyth and I mutually agreed to choose a car that's currently for sale online. It had to be built and sold in the 1980s, and it had to be a coupe. The price cap was set at $10,000. The fruits of our searching labors will henceforth be disputed, with Seyth on the side of the Germans, and myself arguing in favor of the Rocket Olds. Am I setting myself up for another lopsided loss?
GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General 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.
Jay Leno bangs up his own Toronado in GT6
Wed, 11 Dec 2013Ever 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.
