For under $3k this 39k mile 1985 Toronado is a creampuff. Front wheel drive will get you around all year long...

I know it isn't a Ranger but c'mon man! My buddy had a gorgeous black '85 Toronado years ago. Rode like a dream and went anywhere in the winter. Hard to find a cheaper, smoother ride out there with 39k on it. Drive it for a few years, re-sell, and don't lose a dime.

I'd buy 10 Toronados before that POS Cavalier!

30 year old GM bomb? Those things are more fragile than glass.

i stored my f-in-law's '84 Eldo fora few years. If a spider farted on the other side of the barn something cracked or fell off the Eldo.

My Dad had the Caddy Eldo version of that car. It was just plain junk 20+ years ago. LOL

Weren't the Caddys some junk aluminum block time bomb? I think the Olds version was a lot more reliable.

My Dad's had the 4.1L. They leaked every possible engine fluid that they could. Back in the day I worked for Olds/Caddy and they did not run even coming off the truck new. LOL

Maybe if it has a few keys of vintage 80's uncut snow in the trunk, then we can talk.

Oh, the Digital 4100 was a 135 horse powerhouse! Any other V8 would have been better, but I hadn't even thought of the engine... the rest of the car was so brittle I couldn't image counting on it.
