Oldsmobile Toronado

I remember seeing this car for the first time in the Oldsmobile showroom, the day they were unvailed. Really cool for me. This was the first American front wheel drive car since the Cord back in the thirties.
The Toronado was a two-door coupe produced by the Oldsmobile division of General Motors from 1966 to 1992.
The name "Toronado" has no meaning, and was originally invented for a 1963 Chevrolet show car. Conceived as Oldsmobile's full-size personal luxury car and competing directly with the Ford Thunderbird and Buick Riviera, the Toronado is historically significant as the first front-wheel drive automobile produced in the United States since the demise of the Cord in 1937.
The Toronado was structurally related to the 1966 rear-wheel-drive Buick Riviera and the following year's Cadillac Eldorado, although each had quite different styling. The Toronado continued to share its E-body platform with the Riviera and Eldorado for most of its 28-year history. Buick Riviera did not switch to front-wheel drive until the 1979 model year..

Congratulations to LSD! for a FTF!
