Oldsmobile's finest engineering and styling of the era.
The 1961 Starfire was offered exclusively as a convertible in its debut year, blending Jet Age design cues with upscale features throughout. Under the hood, it carried a potent, model-specific 394 cubic-inch high-compression V-8 engine producing 330 horsepower, paired with a Hydra-Matic automatic transmission. Luxury came standard, with power steering, power brakes, power windows.
Many were outfitted with additional options like air conditioning and power vent windows, further enhancing their comfort and appeal.
The example offered here has been restored with A/C. The interior is finished in Garnet red leather. Its Garnet Mist exterior paint—true to its original trim tag—pairs beautifully with the model’s signature brushed aluminum side panels.
An outstanding blend of style, performance, and historical significance, this 1961 Oldsmobile Starfire is a standout piece from the Jet Age era—perfect for collectors or enthusiasts looking for a rare, well-restored classic with presence and power to match.
