Summary:
Wow! That is all I can say about this car, what a great car for anyone to own. I got mine from my grandparents for my 16th birthday. I loved it from the minute I saw it. The seats are 8-way power adjustment, and the dual cliumate control is awesome. The 3800 V6 Supercharged, is abundant with power, and will through you back in your seat any time you punch it. The car is exteamelyn quite when driving down the highway, or when just crusing down the city streets. The only problem is that my harmonic balencer is about to go out on it, but that is not too hard to repair.

Strengths:
Very powerfull engine, will smoke any ricer, or almost any other car for that matter.

Weaknesses:
None right now.

Summary:
Great car. What more can I say. It has 228,000 miles on it. I purchase the Olds LSS from my father after the transmission went out on it and after my parents got an '03 CTS. I has been a good car and now it has some modification done to it since I got it.

Strengths:
Good strong 3.8 liter motor! Comfortable leather seats.

Weaknesses:
The transmission went out at 220,000 miles. Had it rebuilt and no problems since. Power antenna does not work either. Never had any problems with stock radio although it was only a cassette.

Summary:
I have a 1994 Oldsmobile LSS. I currently have over 105,000 miles on it. I have has some problems (minor), but I MUST say, I am so very pleased with it. Even though the mileage is getting up there, I don't think it could be a stronger car. Thank you GM for making such an outstanding vehicle. Not bad coming from a 25 year old that is into speed, huh. LOL

Strengths:
Mechanically, economically and comfortability is outstanding.

Weaknesses:
My only complaint is the paint that is now starting to peel.

Summary:
I AM BESIDE MYSELF TO UNDERSTAND WHY THIS CAR LOSES OIL. I HAVE JUST UNDER 37,000 ORIGINAL MILES AND CHANGE THE OIL EVERY 3,000-3,100 MILES. SINCE THE LAST OIL CHANGE I HAVE ADDED 2 QUARTS OF OIL. WONDER IF ANYONE OUT THERE HAS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. (IT IS A SUPERCHARGED 3.8 LITER/240 HORSEPOWER V-6 ENGINE.)

Strengths:
LOTS OF "GET UP AN GO" POWER.

Weaknesses:
I, TOO, HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE CD PLAYER/RADIO. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO LOCATE AN EXCELLENT TECHNICIAN WHO WAS ABLE TO REPAIR IT FOR LESS THAN HALF THE COST THE DEALERSHIP WANTED.
