1988 Oldsmobile Ciera International Series 3.8 Liter V6 from North America
Summary:
Judge on the side of caution when looking at these cars
Faults:
Engine seized after 980 miles (20 miles under the warranty)
The dealer gave me a hard time about fixing the car, saying it was too expensive. I had to remind him it was under warranty. Only after the threat of legal action, did I get a car to replace this one.
General Comments:
It handled well for the little time that I had it, and there was more than enough power to get the car moving. I cannot judge the car as bad, as they are mostly reliable, but I will never buy a car from that dealer again.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Yes, I agree these are good cars! My car is a 1991 Cutlass Ciera. It has 169K on it.
All that has gone wrong in the past year was a fuel injector that went bad.
This goes to show you don't have to get a Honda or a Toyota to get a good car!
