The Toronado from Oldsmobile was this prolific automaker’s crack at the personal luxury car segment. Introduced in 1965, the Toronado would be produced until 1992, across four generations. The name was something that was created by General Motors, and had been used on a Chevy concept two years prior. Closely related to the Cadillac Eldorado and Buick Riviera, the Toronado can be considered their lesser well-known cousin. That’s why you’ll definitely stand out from the crowd at any classic car meet if you rock up in this 49,259-mile 1978 Oldsmobile Toronado. Why run with the pack, or hustle with the herd? Instead, forge your own path down classic car avenue and start collecting some of America’s lesser-known gems – like this car. It’s also said that all maintenance is up to date, so you can banish that worry from your mind.

Wearing a black coat, this 1978 Oldsmobile Toronado is quintessentially seventies opulence. It comes from the second generation of the model, which ran between 1971 and 1978. This car stretches nearly 220 inches in sheer length, while its wheelbase is a mere 122 inches. Hence, you see its long front and rear overhangs, which are characteristic of the quintessential Seventies Land Yacht. The car rolls on whitewall tires, and has ample servings of chrome, as befit a luxury car from General Motors. Quad headlamps, imposing bumpers, and a sloping rear silhouette all contribute to make a truly distinctive automobile. The interior of this 1978 Oldsmobile Toronado is no less impressive. You’ve got plush, buttoned leather seats, and plenty of wood trim. Areas that have been ‘wooded’ include the dashboard, door accents, and even the steering wheel. Then, this car comes with every creature comfort and technological convenience of time, as befits its positioning. Cue up air conditioning, cruise control, a push-button radio, power-adjustable front seats and power windows. Then, you’ve got a suitably accommodating trunk.

Naturally all that size and weight needs a brawny powerplant. Pop the hood of this 1978 Oldsmobile Toronado and you’ll see a 6.6L V8 that was factory rated for 185hp and 325lb-ft. This is because the seventies saw stringent emissions and fuel economy regulations take hold. But be assured that this car is no slouch; it can get up and go very nicely. Thanks to a 3-speed Turbo-Hydramatic automatic transmission powering its front wheels, your progress will be smooth and seamless.

Oldsmobile is one of those great American auto brands that has slowly faded away and gone into the history books. It joins a long list of great names, such as Pontiac, Mercury, Hudson and many more. Over 35 million Oldsmobile vehicles were produced over a 107-year existence. One of their well-known nameplates was the Toronado, a personal luxury car. Four generations were made, between 1966 and 1992. This 1977 Oldsmobile Toronado is a second-generation car that’s reported to be mostly original. It comes to you with its original paint, and we’re told that documentation is available. Hence, it’s an ideal car to experience a slice of opulent Seventies land yacht-style motoring.
According to the April 1968 issue of Car And Driver, the Oldsmobile Toronado “should be the last word in the neighborhood one-upmanship contest.” The Oldsmobile Toronado Coupe was a full-size personal luxury car designed to rival similar offerings from Buick, with its Riviera, and Ford, with its Thunderbird. Introduced for the 1966 model year, the Toronado featured a massive departure from American cars of the era: it was front-wheel drive! Although commonplace today, the front-engine front-wheel drive configuration was still relatively novel in the ’60s. At the time, virtually every American offering was rear-wheel drive, with only foreign economy cars, such as the BMC Mini and Renault 16, featuring a front-wheel drive configuration. Nevertheless, Oldsmobile had been working on the concept for some years, and the Toronado featured the layout. The impressive looks and interesting drivetrain layout make our featured 1970 Oldsmobile Toronado Coupe a valuable addition to any car collection. It is reported to have undergone recent maintenance and sports many original parts.
