  aurora the flag ship car of OLDS????? - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
  By Neveragain GM - February 9 - 3:53 am

  This is a garbage car, was very excited when I first got it.This car was fun to drive for the first two weeks, then the problems... ready here you go: Sunroof leak - 2 weeks Car wont start - 3 months Wipers stop working - 6 months Steering pinion broke - 7 months Rear window falls into door (suring a nice snow fall) - 12 months Water pouring out of the locking mechanism of the trunk this not covered under warranty, GM says it is not a poor workmanship issue, but the give me a $1000 voucher towrds the purchase of a new GM vehicle. 12 months have more to say, not enough room Long and short... if you buy this garbage car, you better get a very long extended warranty

  Fun to drive - 2002 Oldsmobile Aurora
  By Mac Aipperspach - February 1 - 6:23 pm

  An excellent car to drive and with the interior extras very comfortable for long distance trips. The vehicle was purchased used with 43,000 miles and after 10,000 miles the only trouble so far will be to replace the original rear shocks which are rather pricey due to computer linkage. Plenty of power and for a V-8 on the open highway I can get 25 miles to the gallon.

  overall summary - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
  By tom murdock - January 31 - 1:06 pm

  The Oldsmobile Aurora is a solid car. It provides good performance. Even after long trips, I feel fairly fresh. It has a very good feel and ride to it. Entering interstates, this car can really move and run with the best. Its radio and stereo are excellent as are the heating and ac systems. If Oldsmobile was still making this car, I would purchase another. This vehile is my second Aurora.

  Nice - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
  By RayRay - November 25 - 6:36 am

  Ive owned 28 cars and this car has the best all round qualities. the people having issues with these cars obviously neglected their machine. mine has 176k miles and looks better than cars 1/10th its age. normal maintenance is expected with any car. 01-03 AURORA = 06-09 LUCERNE!

  Best Ive ever owned. - 1999 Oldsmobile Aurora
  By ronp121 - November 10 - 6:27 am

  Bought it when it was 2 years old with 47000 miles had to change Air compressor twice and replace radiator. Other than that just normal maintenance have a 157000 on it now and still starts and runs great. What really fascinating is that Ive never seen a exhaust system last over eleven years and still quiet.

  By Hitdog40 - October 8 - 10:00 am

  This car is the best value in its class. Dont be afraid of the fact that its the last model year. GM will be around forever. Lose the thought of those foriegn cars and pocket the difference in price!

  Possessed by a Demon - 2002 Oldsmobile Aurora
  By Bad News - September 15 - 10:00 am

  Thank God for the states lemon law. Ive owned this car for over a year after trading in my Intrigue. Ive had it in for warranty work 8 times with some problems cleared up, but with a persistent episodic glitch in the steering/suspension. The rack and pinion, steering column, and wheel bearings have been replaced on three seperate multi-day stays in the shop. Whats with the ratchety feel in the steering? My dream car is a nightmare.

  Goodbye to the pre-pro - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
  By NESZ - September 11 - 6:03 pm

  I own an Aurora this has been the most fun I have had in an automobile, to have the luxury, driveability, quality, and body style all rolled into one vechile. The performance of the powertrain is top shelf.

  Fun and reliable - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
  By srcorvettez06 - September 1 - 5:10 am

  The harder I beat on this car the more it asks for. I have a cool air intake and I painted the brakes and mufflers with rustoleum. Im 17 and really beat on my car. Its faster than it looks. After port and polishing the intake, I was able to keep up with a Camaro RS with a 305ci. The 3.5 has a lot of potential. Removing the Cat and Res boosted 12 Horses at the front wheels. Intake was about another 5 with port and polish adding 8. My only recommendation to everyday drivers is getting a set of Goodyear Assurance Luxurys. I ride on Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3. They can take the Aurora around corners at about 3X the speed limit. Really expensive but they last forever.
