While I worked at my last job, I would occasionally drive past a used car dealer, and amidst the 1990'* and 2000'* they would have closest to the street, there was this 1970'* second-generation Oldsmobile Toronado, same green as my Bonneville. (Wish I could've stopped for a picture, but it was on a busy street.)

Surprising in this day and age that it'd take center stage at a dealership, but judging by the body alone, it was practically in showroom condition.

Well, I was up in that neck of the woods this week, and I noticed that in its place was some ricer Honda. I certainly hope the Toronado went to a good home.

If some new Toronado owner is reading this, welcome to GM Forum.

I'd love to have the drive train!

I miss my trofeo



Mine was Black.. had the screen with all the goodies

In the list in Bold are cars I have owned LOL....Although I'm not sure about Mark VIII Collector Edition ??? Mine was just a black Mark VIII

Nice list of cars, but I am sure all of us could argue against many cars in that list. Guess the word collectible and desirable have very different meanings.

U HAD A SYCLONE!?!?! I love the Syclones and Typhoons! I would rather have the Typhoon but would kill for either
Do you have pics? Tell me about it! other than the obvious... was it the quickest vehicle uve ever had?

Wow...Stealth had a syclone?

Would have loved to seen the Toronado

Unfortunately I don't think I have pictures.. Well I know I don't have any... My mom might have some tho, I will ask her when she gets home !!!

I loved the syclone, But I loved my Stepside 454 SS more.. 2 trucks I should have kept but it was at a point in my life where I spent money as fast as I made it ... **** happens when you do that and they were quick cash LOL

Since I'm a bird lover, I'm surprised the 89 Turbo Trans Am and 91-92 Firehawk wasn't on there. What about 96 Impala SS?
