Green Motors: 1998 Oldsmobile Cutlass

This next car comes as a tip from Rock On, who writes: This thing must be approaching unicorn status. I can’t ever recall seeing one on the road. To be frank, I had totally forgotten that Oldsmobile brought the Cutlass name back (it was replaced by the Achieva in 1992) for a 2-year run based on the fifth-generation Chevrolet Malibu platform for the 1997 and 1998 model years. This is what is known as peak-GM 90s econobadging. Find this 1998 Oldsmobile Cutlass offered for $8,800 in Bath, NC via craigslist.
