1994 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme SL By Professional Test Driver, New Car Test Drive .com

Those anxious for the Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme to break out of its stylistic cruise control will have to wait a little longer: There are no significant exterior improvements to this car for 1994. However, this year's addition of a driver-side air bag, a 3.1 -liter V6 engine and four-wheel anti-lock brakes (ABS) improve an already impressive package of standard features--air conditioning, side- and rear-window defoggers, power rack-and-pinion steering and four-wheel independent front and rear suspension.

Our test vehicle was the Cutlass Supreme SL Special Edition sedan, which boasted power mirrors, cruise control, an AM/FM stereo with cassette player, aluminum wheels and special molding. These features were all standard on the Special Edition model-a bonus because they're are offered as options on comparable vehicles.

The MSRP base price of the '94 Cutlass Supreme SL Special Edition is $16,995, putting this well-equipped midsize sedan in the same price range as the Ford Taurus, Dodge Intrepid, Eagle Vision, Chrysler Concorde, Nissan Maxima and Toyota Camrry.
