OLDSMOBILE It was a great company and still could be, I know it was phazed out, but not completely destroyed, gm still has its website up and running for people to see. They have their last few commercials posted, and even a glimps of the beautiful 04 concept that i would personally love to see on the strip.
Yes i am and oldsmobile enthusiast, i'm afraid if olds-mobile doesn't come back, than the only way i'll be able to own a new one is through a catolog company such a yearone of paddock.
please the aurora and alero are slipping away, please popular hotrodding , please GENERAL MOTORS CORP. BRING BACK OLDSMOBILE. If not for adults but for the future , for the kids. thankyou, Joshua Phillip Kyle jpksjourney@hotmail.com

OLDSMOBILE IT DESERVES A COMEBACK, AND NOW WITH RISING FUEL COSTS, AND THE MUSCLE CARS COMING BACK TO A FASTER, MORE ECONOMIC WAY OF DRIVING. I BELIEVE OLDSMOBILE HAS A SHOT IF IT JUST PICKS UP FROM WHERE IT LEFT OFF BACK IN SEPTEMBER 2000 TO SEPTEMBER 2005.
OLDSMOBILE HAS A SHOT, JUST GIVE IT TO THEM, I'M SURE THE PLANT IN FAREFAX, WOULD LOVE TO WELCOME IT BACK, AND SO ON MANY OTHER PLANTS AROUND THE UNITED STATES THAT GENERAL MOTORS HAS.
WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT IS OLDSMOBILE REACHED ITS HUNDRED YEAR MARK IN 1997, WITHOUT EVEN WAIT 5 OR SIX YEARS GM PHAZED THEM OUT, BUT PEOPLE WERE BUYING , THE BEANIE BABYS WERE SET TO END THAT ONE YEAR AND THEN IT SO HAPPENS EVERYONE STARTED BUYING THEM UP SO THEY DECIDED TO STAY IN BUSINESS. BUT OH NO! NOT GM STICK TO THE PROCEDURE PHAZING OUT OLDS DIVISION IS A MUST , SOLELY TO CONCENTRATE MORE ON CHEVY, YEAH OKAY SURE.
OLDSMOBILE DIDN'T HAVE THAT MUCH TIME.
BUT PLEASE BRING IT BACK. 442 , CUTLASS, STARFIRE, F-85

I love the Oldsmobile of yesteryear, but I think through mismanagement and GM's use of badge engineering they ruined a perfectly good brand. I fear for Buick, because i'm not sure where they fit in with GM's masterplan.

Buick is being run into the ground, pretty soon gm is only going to have chevy, cadilac, and pontiac, and for the trucks a gmc brand and thats it.
gm doesn't know what they are doing, doesn't want to remember where they came from and doesn't care about the fuel outlook. they simply do not care.
Oldsmobile back in "99" as i was watching some old sema clips, they had a car called the: 04 concept it looks just like the solstice, they had a toranado that was there as well, the aurora was or had been redesigned gm hadn't even gave olds a chance to breath.
but i guess they were only doing there job. we all have to make money don't we know matter what, we all have a family, some of one some of two some of 5, 6 , or even 7. well thats all for tonite.

You've got better chances of getting GM to bring back the Corvair than seeing Oldsmobile revived.

You know, a new corvair could be pretty bitchin'...
