I had just under 300,000 miles on my 1984 Oldsmobile Delta 88 when I sold it in 1999. So, that's 15 years. I suspect, if you wait until 2013, you will find 1988 model Oldsmobiles, Pontiacs, Chevy's, and Buicks that have 300,000 miles, are 25 years old and work well. 1988 was a watershed year for GM because of the 3800 engine. GM cars begin to improve dramatically starting in 1988 and continuing through the 1990's. Donald H.
