Reviews and Buyer Guides for Oldsmobile Model R's From Automotive Experts
The Cutlass Supreme was Oldsmobile's crack at the personal luxury car segment. It ran over five generations between 1966 and 1997 and morphed into a regular mid-size car. Of course, mid-size was all relative in America, where everything's larger than life. This 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Brougham hails from the fourth generation of the nameplate. With just 22,000 miles, it's a fine example of a time when land yachts ruled American roads.

Currently relaxing in Grand Prairie, Texas, this all-original restored car awaits a new owner, which might very well be you, dear reader!

Oldsmobile might not be the most talked about auto brand right now, but the company was responsible for quite a few groundbreaking achievements in the automobile world. They were the first car maker to mass produce a gasoline-engine-powered vehicle and were pioneers in the American automotive scene. One of their greatest achievements, the Oldsmobile 98, was their top-of-the-line vehicle, and the car saw twelve generations before it finally retired. This 10th generation Oldsmobile 98 is of the Regency model, a premium trim of the vehicle, and is currently up for sale.
The Toronado from Oldsmobile was this prolific automaker’s crack at the personal luxury car segment. Introduced in 1965, the Toronado would be produced until 1992, across four generations. The name was something that was created by General Motors, and had been used on a Chevy concept two years prior. Closely related to the Cadillac Eldorado and Buick Riviera, the Toronado can be considered their lesser well-known cousin. That’s why you’ll definitely stand out from the crowd at any classic car meet if you rock up in this 49,259-mile 1978 Oldsmobile Toronado. Why run with the pack, or hustle with the herd? Instead, forge your own path down classic car avenue and start collecting some of America’s lesser-known gems – like this car. It’s also said that all maintenance is up to date, so you can banish that worry from your mind.
Oldsmobile is one of those great American auto brands that has slowly faded away and gone into the history books. It joins a long list of great names, such as Pontiac, Mercury, Hudson and many more. Over 35 million Oldsmobile vehicles were produced over a 107-year existence. One of their well-known nameplates was the Toronado, a personal luxury car. Four generations were made, between 1966 and 1992. This 1977 Oldsmobile Toronado is a second-generation car that’s reported to be mostly original. It comes to you with its original paint, and we’re told that documentation is available. Hence, it’s an ideal car to experience a slice of opulent Seventies land yacht-style motoring.
The Oldsmobile Toronado, introduced in 1966, was part of the Oldsmobile division of General Motors (GM). Oldsmobile has a rich history dating back to 1897 when Ransom Eli Olds founded the Olds Motor Vehicle Company in Lansing, Michigan. The first-generation Toronado garnered widespread acclaim and earned the prestigious Motor Trend Car of the Year award in 1966. Subsequent generations saw advancements in engine technology, safety features, and interior amenities. What we are featuring here belongs to the second generation, which received heavily revised styling that turned a "GT"-style car into a classic luxury car. Being tastefully restored by its current owner, this 1977 Oldsmobile Toronado shows 38,000 miles on its clock and is ready to make an impression in your driveway.
With the oil crisis settling, the American automotive world was slowly springing back into action; the fuel Sipping imports still shared the roads, but the all too familiar big American motors were slowly making their way back into dealership floors and the open highways. The 1975 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale we have today represents a post-fuel crisis America and is here to ensure your weekend is lived up to in style in true 70s fashion. What's better? This big American class act has just a reported 82,100 miles on the clock and comes with extensive service documentation.
Yes, the Oldsmobile Cutlass is named after the sword of the same name. But, it’s also named after the Vought F7U Cutlass fighter jet. What a combination of inspirations for a car from a now-defunct brand. Over its production, the Cutlass would compete in the compact, midsize and personal luxury car segments. That’s quite broad for a single nameplate. Today’s 1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass is a third-generation car that hails from Belcourt, North Dakota. We’re told that it has been upgraded with a Rocket 455 engine, making it a real sleeper for those who don’t expect such an old-timey car to be so sprightly. So why not buy it and make it your weekend toy?
The Oldsmobile Cutlass was a car that was made by this now-defunct American brand between 1961 and 1999. The Cutlass saw the light of day as a compact car in 1961, where it remained for just three model years. Then, it moved to the midsize segment until 1981. That’s where this third-generation 1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass 442 Tribute comes from. With 82,754 miles to its name, this car is styled to resemble the iconic 442 muscle car option package that was available for the Cutlass. Why not make this car your first or next classic, then? It’s largely original, with a few enhancements here and there.
The Oldsmobile 442 earned its reputation in the golden muscle car era by combining power, presence, and everyday drivability. By 1970, it stood shoulder to shoulder with GM’s finest offerings, and today it remains one of the most respected names of the period. Our featured 1970 Oldsmobile 442 Holiday Coupe, finished in blue inside and out, brings that legacy back with a recently rebuilt powertrain and modern precision engineering. Located in Orland Park, Illinois, this example is powered by a period-correct but non-numbers-matching 455ci V8, paired with a Turbo 400 transmission. With a reported rebuild date of May 2023, this 442 offers a fresh take on classic American muscle.
With a swashbuckling, buccaneering name like Cutlass, you might be led to believe that the Oldsmobile Cutlass was a full-size land yacht. However, it actually started life in 1961 as a compact, before becoming a midsize, personal luxury car in 1968. Yes, it’s named after the sword of the same name, but also draws nomenclature from an aircraft of the time, the Vought F7U Cutlass. Six generations of Cutlass were made, and Oldsmobile also started using Cutlass as a sub-brand in 1982. Sadly, neither Oldsmobile nor Cutlass are around today, which makes this third-generation, 1970 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme all the more valuable as a classic American automobile. This car comes with all maintenance reportedly up to date as well, making it a great future investment.
