Pros: Nice design, smooth and quiet ride, reliable
Cons: Front seats uncomfortable for long rides, locks automatically when in gear
I purchased this vehicle used when it was a little over two years old and have felt that it is a good car overall. Mine is the V6 S sedan version. It has been reliable thus far, although it does not yet have a lot of miles on it. A repeated problem that...

Pros: great A/C, drives nicely
Cons: Quad 4 Engine makes repairs expensive, seats are uncomfortable
The Bottom Line: I would not get an Achieva with the Quad 4 engine, it is a nightmare when getting repairs anywhere near the engine.
I bought this car 2 years ago for $3000. It was cheap because it came with 120,000 miles on it. The guy I bought it from did a lot of business out of town, so he was always on the road. I told myself, "at least they're highway miles..." It now has...

Pros: Reliable, reliable, reliable!
Cons: Slightly unattractive/outdated interior
The Bottom Line: If you commute, this would be a great car for you!
I bought a used 1995 Oldsmobile Achieva in 1997. I was a little apprehensive about the purchase because my family always owned nothing but Fords. I'm here to say that five years, one accident, and 70,000 miles later that the Oldsmobile Achieva is a...

Pros: Acceleration, styling, interior, gas milage, EVERYTHING

I have owned a 1995 Oldsmobile Achieva for approximately 2 years, we have only had one problem with this car and that was still covered by the warranty and was know to be a common problem in this car. We purchased this car with 54,000 miles on it and now...

Pros: Gas Mileage
Cons: Interior Workmanship
I own a 1995 Olds Achieva. I bought the car brand new. The price was great, but the workmanship of the interior is somewhat poor. The vents in the doors have fallen out. The lights will not work at times when it rains, especially the taillights. It has...

Pros: Beauty, style, quality of ride
Cons: None
The Bottom Line: Buy this car. You won't regret it.
We bought our 1995 Olds 98 Regency Elite used from an older couple that had used it as a commuter car from CA to AZ. It had 151,000 on it when we bought it. Why would you buy a car with so many miles, you might ask? This car was in pristine condition. ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: roomy, comfortable, quiet, pleasant to drive, good stereo system
Cons: No manual transmission version
The Bottom Line: Good if you're looking for something at the middle of the line, not high priced or sporty.
This car has been good to me. I still own mine, I bought it with under 50,000 miles on it. This car has been a blessing as my last car was a 1985 model of this type of car. For the money I paid, I feel I got an excellent deal. The only problem with the...

Pros: It was cheap and cute
Cons: It isn't brand new
I didn't buy this vehicle. My grandmother did. She bought it brand new and nothing has gone wrong yet. I think that is very good. Now it is my car and I think this is a very good vehicle for a 16 year old like me. It is small and cheap and yet it is...

Recommended: Yes
Pros: Gas Mileage, Acceleration, ans Sound System
Cons: Brakes, Power Locks.
I own the 95 Achieva S model, I just purchased it this month but so far I have been very pleased. Its very easy to drive and has good acceleration. Seeing how this is my first car I feel I made a good choice. The gas mileage is unbelievable, which is great for me cause I do alot of travelling. Of course there are downsides, the power locks dont work too well and its difficult for me to find a comfortable position to sit in while driving, might have something to do with the fact that I am over 6' tall though.
