It's not a bad choice. My kid learned on a 99 Intrigue, and insurance isn't too bad (better than a lot of small cars), but we already owned the car. If you need to buy a car for a teen, get a used four door sedan you can pay cash for, and drop the collision coverage. A 99 Olds Intrigue fits the bill, and can be had for less than $3K. I also had a 99 Toyota Corolla, and my insurance agent told me the kid would be cheaper on the Intrigue. Plus the Corolla is more expensive to buy for the wild child to scrape up.
Only the Olds Intrigue with the 3.5 L
lower the engine from the car
Its at the front of the car but you need to go under the car to get to it.
If you look under the car it is by the passenger side tire
The alternator is located on the front left side of the car (facing the car) Above the AC compressor.
you will have to tell a few more things about the car, Have you ever changed the fuel filter,Has it everbeen tuned? Is the battery voltage good?

You can't take off the "governor" on any computerized car.
It is important to know the cost of replacing parts or making repairs on a car. For a 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue it should cost between $90 and $200 for a person to replace the alternator on their own.
on your car the flasher is located behind the instrument cluster beside the hazzard lights button.
I worked at a GM dealer for a few years as a technician, and I've known guys at the car stereo / alarm shop.. There is NO GOOD WAY to get around it.
I believe the pattern is 15X6, 5lugX115mm on the Intrigue 1997-2003 and 16X6.5, 5lugX115mm on the GLS models with chrome wheels. Either wheel should work on the car.
