Overview & Reviews

A performance suspension is newly optional on GL models. The four-cylinder gets a composite intake manifold, while all models benefit from the addition of three rear-shelf anchors for child safety-seat restraints. If glitz is your thing, you can now opt for a new gold package on GL and GLS versions.

• Sleek styling, brisk performance and handling, ergonomically designed interior, well-equipped standard model.

• Hint of cheapness to interior bits, unrefined engine noise intrudes into passenger compartment, ugly cloth fabric pattern on GX and GL.

  Good Car - 2000 Oldsmobile Alero
  By Bradley James - February 17 - 10:00 am

  I have had very few problems with this car, I had a bad multifuntion switch that caused the turn signals not to work, but it was fixed under warenty. The only other complaint i have is that it is a four cyl. but it gets worse gas milage than most 6 cyl. cars, and also the 4 cyl. motor is quite noisy

  I Love Oldsmobiles! - 2000 Oldsmobile Alero
  By Jennifer Carnahan - December 25 - 2:16 pm

  Bought my 2000 Alero used in 2005 when it had about 86,000 miles on it. I have never had a problem with my car. It has been a great first vehicle for me. Still runs great with 130,000 miles on it.

  great car for my family - 2000 Oldsmobile Alero
  By alleng - August 21 - 10:00 am

  I have really enjoyed this car. Has performed well for what I needed. If you are a traveler, probably not the best option, but does well for teenagers and small families. Ive had one brake problem. No other major issues. Gas milleage is great!

  loved it! - 2000 Oldsmobile Alero
  By lovedmyalero - June 7 - 10:00 am

  I just traded in my alero gl 4dr for an suv. But I really miss it! The car was fun to drive. I put 30,000 miles on it with just some minor problems all covered under the warranty. It can do 0 to 60 in just seconds. Its fast, racey and great looking. I feel like Im driving a sports car. Too bad they are not made anymore. I had to trade it in because I needed a 4wd car. But otherwise, I loved it and I miss it.

  Oregon Alero - 2000 Oldsmobile Alero
  By out of the country - April 28 - 10:00 am

  I now live outside the country and unfortunately have to sell my car. The V-6 is very powerful but also nimble. I am 64" and it is not crouded, I still have confortable head room. Gas effeciency is very good at close to 30 GPM on the highway. When I bought it I compared it to the Japanese/ German 2 dr. V6 Coupes. Nothing could come close enought in price (with comparative features) to warrent a 2nd test drive

  A Powerful Pleasant Suprise! - 2000 Oldsmobile Alero
  By us_blueskirt - February 18 - 2:00 am

  This car was purchased 3yrs old with about 40K mi...In 11 mos Ive put another 20k+...Multiple trips from E TN to FL, VA, TX, GA, and DC; plus a 40mi comute to work every day. This is a fantastic little car in city and OTR! It feels like driving a sporty car. It responds better if you keep an almost religious maintenance schedule. Great handling and power getting on and off the interstate and around these mountain curves. I run this car very hard and Im very pleased with it so far. As I set out for another trip to TX..there is not a single doubt that this little car will get me there and back with pleasure!

  Great Car - 2000 Oldsmobile Alero
  By rjwolps - February 5 - 10:00 am

  I love my Alero. I have had it a little over 2 years and have about 65,000 miles it. It runs great and I get about 34 mpg on the highway. It is very comfortable and fun to drive. It is a very good car for the money. The only complaint is the same compliant that I have had for other Olds products - the brakes. They dont last and the rotors warp too easialy. I have a lot of miles on my car, but they are almost exclusively highway miles. The original brakes should have lasted a lot longer than about 40,000 because I dont use them that much.

  Great car - 2000 Oldsmobile Alero
  By jon - July 25 - 6:16 am

  This is a good strong car built by GM. Ive driven it to the ground and have had to replace rotors, a/c and a few electrical components. Its definitely a well-built car. Ive experienced some problems mentioned by other people here, such as the peeling dash, and some paint problems on the hood, but otherwise Im satistied with the car. In town mpg is about 20 when I drive like a madman, but on the highway i get closer to 36mpg. Pretty good for a car with decent umph. Steering, throttle and breaks a lot more responsive than many japanese cars that ive drive.
