That's not the right picture for the First Generation Cutlass. The picture shows newer models than 1966-1967. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.186.80.166 (talk) 02:31, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
I think it was me that put in the 1970 date, so it should be me to correct it. 67.149.11.1 was closer to right than I was. After researching the name out, I found a picture of a 1966 Cutlass Supreme in Tad Burness' American Car Spotter's Guide, marked as New. It was Olds' version of GM's new intermediate four-door hardtop bodystyle. The book does not mention a coupe until '70, and shows no four-doors with the name thereafter.

- That edit made it sound like the Supreme was a model from '67. I like your new wording (except the "always") since it makes it clear that it was a trim line until '70. When I was working on this article, I wanted to differentiate the trim line from the model, like Buick Park Avenue and the rest. Good writing! --SFoskett 14:23, Nov 12, 2004 (UTC)
1988 olds
editI have a 1988 cutlass supreme brougham and its a rear wheel drive, I saw that you did not mention it.
- Are you sure it's not a Cutlass Supreme Classic or something else? --ApolloBoy 19:01, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
- That would be Cutlass Supreme Classic Brougham, which I think is one of the longer car names out there. It wouldn't surprise me if some '88 owners at one point removed the "Cutlass Supreme Classic" badge and replaced it with the old one, that may be where your confusion lies. --Sable232 15:08, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
More to do on this
editOnce I figure out where to start. The first Olds Cutlass was a trimline for a '62 F-85. So there was a whole 'nother generation before what's listed.Dagorlad 00:50, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
If it says classic its just a reborn of the last model year made, the 1977 cutlass supreme of the third generation. The last of the lager models. Which is a true classic. My father inlaw has one. Its near mint and all original. It is in fact a broughham. I drove it and it was great! June 2007. David Hunsaker
What I would like to know is... How many 77 v6 CS brougham's were made and how many are still on the road?
What?
editDavid hunsacker wouldnt know a "true classic" if it ran him over. Tell us about the shody workmanship, the cheap plastic interiors and the rusting out of the rear bumper support which caused the rear bumpers to literaly fall off. Perhaps we should bring up these points in the article, along with the low performance 260 V-8 which was nearly impossible to keep in tune. These junk wagons could not compete with the craftsmanship of the 1977 Ford Thunderbird which displaced the cutlass as a top seller. Busceda (talk) 22:13, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

'81-'88
editFourth gen. Cutlass Supremes rock (in my opinion). I mean the aerodynamic ones from 1981-1988, not the heavy, weird-looking ones. Crazykrazyqrazy (talk) 18:46, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
1st gen pictures
editThose aren't 66-67 Cutlass Supremes, they are 1968 and 69 Cutlasses/442s. BlackSabbath1996 (talk) 17:29, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
Hilary Clinton's Car
editThis section is in the wrong article. If you follow the link, you see Mike Lawn standing beside a 1986 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera, which was the front-wheel drive midsize Oldsmobile for 1986, not the rear-drive model as in this article. I would move it myself but wanted to gather consensus as to whether or not this even belongs in a Wikipedia article. Seems rather inconsequential to me. 99.228.54.191 (talk) 16:28, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
Wrong Info
editThe 1970 was not the equivalent of the Pontiac Grand Prix. Maybe, someone is thinking of the Chevrolet Monte Carlo, which was related to the Grand Prix, though not the same. Both were offshoots of the A-Body, which the Cutlass was. It may have been similar in "flavor", as a personal luxury car, especially the Cutlass SX, but it was not more related than others in the series.
