Oldsmobile’s take on the Personal Luxury Car, the Toronado came to be in 1965. It stuck around until 1992, across four generations, and was perhaps best known for its quirky front-wheel drive layout.

Today, we’ve got one of those front-driven beasts, a second-generation 1977 Oldsmobile Toronado Brougham from Middle River, Maryland. This car has traveled just 16,271 miles so far and represents a fine choice for a discerning collector who wants a Seventies classic that perfectly embodies the spirit of size and luxury excess at the time.
Exterior and Interior
Firethorn Red Metallic is the official paint code worn by this 1977 Oldsmobile Toronado Brougham, all 220 inches of it! Yes, this is a large car, as it’s not just long, but a whisker under 80 inches in width too. Its front has got to be the most imposing part, with quad headlamps, chrome bumpers and a prominent grille taking pride of place. Meanwhile, the rear sports a more slanted outlook while the rear part of the roof comes in white for a pseudo-convertible look, as was popular back then. White-striped tires with silver hubcaps are present as well. On to the interior, and it’s also in red. You’ve got four plush red velour seats that look positively inviting! Once you’re settled in, there’s a custom steering wheel cover, a tilt steering column and woodgrain interior accents. Tech features include power windows, power door locks, air conditioning and an AM/FM radio. Cruise control, a rear window defogger and a power antenna are present too. In the trunk, you’ll find a full-sized spare wheel and ample cargo space for that cross-country trip you’ve been dreaming of taking.
Engine
This 1977 Oldsmobile Toronado Brougham packs a 403ci V8 with a 4-barrel carburetor. The engine powers the front axle via a 3-speed Turbo-Hydramatic 425 automatic gearbox. Despite the car’s size and bulk, the engine’s reported 175 horsepower and 325lb-ft of torque are enough to make it move smartly. You won’t be annoying anyone else in this car; on the contrary, they’ll slow down and admire it.
