The reason why Oldsmobile is DOA comes down to basic facts. The public tastes changed and they didn't... Plus, people always have inherent biases towards products that are impossible to change. Mention Oldsmobile to someone under 35 and they think "Old people's car" (bench seats, column shifter, boatlike, etc)
Reality caught up with them and thus they must go... It comes down to what makes sense for GM stockholders.
