My 2002 Olds Intrigue, nearly equivalent to this one.
(Waits for laughter to die down)
I bought my ‘02 Intrigue with 26K miles on the odometer for $12.5K after haggling with the supplier and mentioning the automobile had been sitting on his lot for nearly six months.
Nice freeway cruiser, ~25mpg at 80mph, roomy and comfy however was pretty competent within the twisties with the fitting tires and in a position to sustain with the d-bag with the 325i once we had been each merging onto I-75 within the morning.
The trunk was massive sufficient for a weeks price of baggage for 2 individuals, plus 4 circumstances of Yuengling Lager transported from Phila earlier than it was out there in GA.
It was additionally dependable and just about bullet proof, my largest headache was that the automobile went by window regulators like a junkie by a bag of Oreos – I changed seven within the 10 years I had the automobile earlier than I stated ‘fuck it’ and simply invested in three rubber door stoppers from the greenback retailer.
I lastly offered the automobile to a pal who wanted dependable transportation to highschool.
I acquired 215,000 largely trouble-free miles out of the Intrigue and my pal placed on nearly one other 70K earlier than the automobile acquired sideswiped by some fool in a U-Haul.
I’d purchase one other one in a heartbeat if I might discover one.
i’m a agency believer within the adage: “GM automobiles run like shit longer that almost all automobiles run in any respect.”
It’s at all times the U-Haul that brings our favourite automobiles to an finish. Having been that driver, attempting my greatest to keep away from each automobile in my path, have pity on them. They don’t wish to be doing this both.
