Vehicle Description
The Oldsmobile Toronado is a personal luxury car produced by the
Oldsmobile division of General Motors from 1966 to 1992. Designed
to compete with the Ford Thunderbird and GM's own Buick Riviera,
the Toronado is historically significant as the first U.S.-produced
front-wheel drive automobile since the demise of the Cord in 1937.
The final generation Toronado made its debut in 1985. It was even
smaller, lost its body-on-frame construction in favor of a unibody
platform, and was the first Toronado since 1969 to feature hidden
headlights. For the first time ever V8 engines were gone, with the
fuel-injected version of the Buick 231 cu in (3.8 L) V6 now the
only powerplant available. Inside, a new digital instrument panel
and optional voice alert system were employed and the same luxury
trappings were offered as standard equipment and options as before.
Standard seating was a cloth 60/40 bench with center armrest. For
the first time since 1970, Strato bucket seats were offered as an
option, and they included a full-length center console with a
horseshoe-like "basket handle" gear shift similar to that found in
some 1960s and 1970s Buicks and Chevrolets. Upholstery choices
included cloth or leather.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1991 Oldsmobile Toronado
for purchase. This Toronado is outfitted with the powerful 3.8L V6
engine making near 170 horsepower. This power is transferred
through a silky smooth 3 speed automatic transmission and applied
with an innovative front wheel drive system. This Toronado has all
the features you could want, some of the best will follow; power
windows, power steering, telescoping wheel steering, working
digital clock and radio / stereo, original interior mats, original
wheels, keyless fob, working headlights low/high, working air
conditioner, working heater and much more. This vehicle has been
cared and maintained very well by both previous owners. From the
factory this vehicle also had a Ziebart coating applied. The Dark
Garnet exterior paint looks very well and has cleaned up very
nicely after receiving a fully finished professional detail. The
interior has also held on very well for the age of the vehicle. The
seats are all in great condition and appear to be free of any holes
or rips, the dashboard is intact as it should and looks great. The
carpet roof liner is sagging down slightly and could use a
professional re-stapling - this is a very common issue with these
Fourth Generation Toronados. In short, this 1991 Oldsmobile
Toronado remains largely unmolested to this day, and is a gem among
original car enthusiasts. Consider with confidence, please call or
email us today for more information on this vehicle.
