UP FOR BID IS A BEAUTIFUL 1978 OLDSMOBILE TORONADO BROUGHAM COUPE. THIS IS THE LAST YEAR FOR THE FULL SIZE FRONT WHEEL DRIVE OLDS TORONADO. IN 1979 THE MODEL WAS DOWNSIZED. THE CAR HAS A SHARP RED EXTERIOR PAINT JOB AND A WHITE VINYL ROOF. IT HAS A 403 CUBIC INCH V-8 ACTUALLY MADE BY THE OLDSMOBILE DIVISION OF GENERAL MOTOR I BELIEVE. THE CAR HAS A BEAUTIFUL RED CLOTH INTERIOR THAT IS TUFTED AND IT IS IN GREAT CONDITION. THE CAR HAS AN AM/FM STEREO GM RADIO WITH A BUILT IN 8 TRACK PLAYER. THAT WAS THE TOP OF THE LINE AUDIO SYSTEM FOR 1978. THE CAR HAS A POWER ANTENNAE THAT WORKS EVERY TIME. ALL SYSTEMS IN THE VEHICLE WORK FINE. IT HAS POWER WINDOWS, POWER DRIVER'S SEAT, POWER LOCKS, POWER STEERING, POWER BRAKES, CRUISE CONTROL, A TILT STEERING WHEEL AND IT ALL WORKS FINE. THE ONLY FLAW IN THE INTERIOR IS A SMALL CRACK IN THE DRIVERS SIDE ARMREST WHEN SOMEONE ARM WOULD SIT. THE VEHICLE NEEDS NOTHING AND ALL THE FLUIDS HAVE BEEN CHANGED SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR.

THE UNDERCARRIAGE IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH SOME SLIGHT RUST. REMEMBER THIS IS A 1978 VEHICLE (35 YEARS OLD) AND HAS A LIGHT PATINA OF RUST ON SOME SURFACES ON THE UNDERCARRIAGE. THE EXHAUST SYSTEM IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION AND NOTHING UNDERNEATH NEEDS SERVICE ATTENTION.

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM A EBAY LISTING ABOUT 4 YEARS AGO. IT HAS BEEN COMPLETELY CHECKED OUT AND EVERYTHING HAS BEEN INSPECTED AND RENEWED. THE VEHICLE STARTS, DRIVES, STOPS AND PERFORMS PERFECTLY. IT IS A POWERFUL CAR AND WILL CRUISE ALL DAY AT 75MPH.

IT IS CLEAR TO SEE THE VEHICLE WAS WELL KEPT AND IS IN GREAT CONDITION.

THE CAR IS SOLD WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY. IT IS SOLD AS-IS. THE CAR IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND WILL BE A GREAT ADDITION TO ANY OLDSMOBILE COLLECTION.

TRANSPORTATION IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE NEW OWNER. I WILL WORK WITH THE TRANSPORT COMPANY TO ARRANGE THE PICKUP.

CAREFULLY EXAMINE ALL THE PHOTOS POSTED WITH THE VEHICLE. THIS CAR IS A PLEASURE TO DRIVE AND READY TO GO.

ANY QUESTIONS CALL VINCE AT 585-259-3958.

THANKS AND CHECK OUT MY OTHER LISTINGS.

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.

This Or That: 1980 Oldsmobile 442 vs. 1989 BMW 635CSi [w/poll]

Thu, 09 Oct 2014

The 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 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.
