Pros: roomy and comfortable
Cons: have not found any yet
We are leasing our Silhouette and love it so far. We love the power sliding door makes entry and exit for the kids a breeze when dropping and picking them up at school. The interior is roomy and comfortable and the van was priced very good. We compared...

Pros: Value and Comfort
Cons: None
When we purchased our Silhouette, we were a little bit nervous. Our last experience buying a new car had left us by the wayside feeling well a little sore in the bottom region. We looked at several models but had never even considered buying an...

Pros: Easy to drive, great entertainment system
Cons: Costs more than your average van
After driving compacts cars for years, I was wary of buying such a large vehicle, but my growing family just didn't fit in those small cars anymore. When we began looking at minivans we were overwhelmed at the choices. After looking at ALL of them we...

Pros: Comfortable and Entertaining
Cons: No storage for driver/automatic door
The Oldsmobile Silhouette is a great minivan and the price is great too. My husband and I just purchased a 1999 Oldsmobile Silhouette and I must say it is the best investment in a vehicle I've ever made. We have 3 children ages 1, 2, and 13, and now we...

Pros: great options and reliablity
Cons: stereo console and seats
The Oldsmobile Silhouette is an outstanding minivan with an array of useful features. It is also well designed and fun to drive. With a peppy engine, good handling, and tight cornering. Also living in Colorado the Silhouette does great in the snow....

Pros: has vcr and monitor, sliding door
Cons: monitor too small
The Bottom Line: This is one van you can take everywhere with everyone!!
With 3 kids a van was a must. We bought this van totally loaded, our purchase price is well above the one listed here. Oldsmobile has been great. My battery ended up having a dead cell, so it kept going dead. Under the agreement they sent someone out...

Pros: roominess & comfortable
Cons: not so great gas mileage
We have had our 1999 Oldsmobile Silhouette for three months now. It is everything I wanted it to be.
We looked at every domestic make and model of mini-vans around before we bought ours. Comfort and price was our major influences.

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: V6, spacious, entertainment system
Cons: size when parking, learning electronics
We put off making a jump from a station wagon to a van for several years and the wait has paid off. We fell in love with the Oldsmobile Silhouette Premiere version immediately. It didn't hurt that we were picking up a 1999 with 10K miles at a great...

Pros: neat gadgets and good handling
Cons: not great for pickin up ladies on a Friday night
So, I must admit I haven't driven this van much (I'm only a poor college student, I'd feel lucky if I had a pinto with three out of the four tires and no spark plugs) because it belongs to my parents, but from my experience, it drives really well. It is...

Pros: overall great vehicle
Cons: I can't fit two in my garage
I am the youngest of 4 children and I grew up in a "mini-van" family. I always said that I would never buy a mini-van...well times have changed. My wife and I had our first child and we realized that our SUV was no longer practical. We had...

Pros: The Silhouette it's self is a pro.
Cons: None that I have found so far.
I was once one of those ANTI MINI VAN people. Until the first time I saw and drove my Oldsmobile Silhouette. There are so many things that I love about my Silhouette. I would have to say that the power sliding door would have to be my favorite thing....

Pros: nice interior
Cons: You don't have enough time!!!! I have had nothing but problems with this van.
The Bottom Line: Do not buy this van. It is not reliable and will cost you $$$$$.
This van has never been reliable. We bought it for trips with the sports teams and it has caused us so much trouble. It stays in the shop all the time. We either have it in the shop when we need it or it breaks down when we go out of town. The body...

Pros: Safety features
Cons: No clothes hangers
This is my sixth van, all previously from another company. This is the best of the lot. Most comfortable ride -- no sway going around a curve.
Leaves other cars behind on a grade. I also like the daylight riding lights and the side air bags, both...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: A very comfortable, easy to drive vehicle. It can carry very heavy loads with ease.
Cons: A slight oversteer is noted and wheel balancing is tedious.
The Oldsmobile Silhouette Premier is a very classy vehicle. It drives like a sedan, has great space and does not buckle under heavy loads. I chose an Oldsmobile for its comfort of ride, room of the interior, EPA mileage stats, great handling, stability...
