"Each 1972 Oldsmobile Ninety-Eight Regency was registered at Tiffany's and included the specially styled interior with a black or covert "pillow effect" velour upholstery, and power split bench seat, in place of the power bench seat with rear clock. Tiffany touches include the Tiffany Gold paint (an exclusive custom metallic color created especially for this car), the clock has also been specially styled by Tiffany's and bears a white Oldsmobile emblem above the Tiffany's name on a golden face. Each 1972 Regency owner received a distinctive sterling silver key ring as a gift, if ever lost the keys could be dropped in a mail box, and Tiffany's would return them to the owner. A total of 2650 75th anniversary Ninety-Eight Regencys were built, all of them 4 door hardtops."

*sniffling* I had one just like this in high school, until I wrecked it on a gravel road. Only paid 500 bucks for it from the original owner. Then I found a wallet with 290 dollars in it behind the dashboard :D

If it weren't for the price of gas I wish I was driving one of these right now! But man oh man would she cruise down the highway...

would love to see it with all four windows down, just cruising.

geometrically appealing from every angle, though i don't want one.
