Noooooooooo Whyyyyyyyyy??? Oh well 107 years is a good run. Gotta say, they are pretty good cars, mines ran for 120 000km with no problems, fast too!

How long ago did GM first announce they were killing the brand?

Good run indeed but you have to thin the herd every so often, and GM has put that off way too long.

Wow, that's kinda weird that they're cutting off the brand like that. I wonder if the value for oldsmobiles will drop much?

The 87-88 Cultass Supremes will always be one of my favorite cars of all time.

Still drive one every day. (not these though)
