It was offered with all powertrains available on the standard Cutlass, including the two-barrel Buick V6, two-barrel Oldsmobile V8, and Chevrolet V8s, in either two- or four-barrel form. A three-speed manual transmission was standard, and a three-speed THM200 automatic was available with all engines; a Borg-Warner five-speed manual was offered with the 260 V8 and a four-speed Saginaw manual with the 305 V8. Distinctive trim elements included contrasting striping along the rocker panels, lower doors, and wheelwells, badging on the rear trunk, and interior emblems. All other options offered on the Cutlass Salon were available with the 4-4-2 package. 1979 The 1979 4-4-2 remained based on the Cutlass Salon body style.
