  • Best K/G body ever - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
    By -

    This car is highly underated. The Aurora has great grip and handling for a 3800 lb auto. The auto leveling suspension in rear takes the roll out of corning. High speed cornering is no problem. The more you dial in the tighter the grip get. Steering is better than expect. I plan on taking this car to summit point raceway to further evaluate its ability.

  • Disappointment - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
    By -

    Wish I hadnt purchased it. Its been a money pit, since I bought it 2 1/2 years ago. Got a great deal on it, or so I thought-even bought the less expensive extended warranty from GM. Thats where the deal ended.The car has been in and out of the shop.So far, I have spent over $3,000 on repairs. Towed 5 times-for no starts,window & wiper motors, theft system faults, constant oil leaks-change every 3,000 mi.& add a quart every month, pollution equipment, peeling chrome rims-to name a few. 90% of repairs arent covered under the warranty."Should have bought the more expensive one." I did like this car-nice ride, comfortable, luxurious. Nothing but regrets-too expensive to maintain.

  • Adios GM - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
    By -

    Saying goodbye to GM after four Oldsmobiles and five years with the Aurora. A beauty. Loved it on the highway, stable, responsive, and extremely comfortable. Body and paint stayed in great condition, but way too much time in shop for repeated steering, water pump, transmission and other problems. Interior bulbs blew at regular intervals, spent half of ownership with check engine light on. First name basis with all of dealers service personnel. Greatly enjoyed the car despite the problems and will miss the design, but after thirty years of buying American, have had enough of GMs hit or miss reliability.

  • Aurora is a winner - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
    By -

    Purchased the 2001 Aurora to replace my 185K mile Intrigue that I gave my college grad son. This Aurora has the exact same reliable, well performing power train. This car is VERY comfortable, quiet and loaded with features that are now showing up on 2008 models. Great gas mileage for a luxury car (28 on highway). Trouble free. One small air pump valve failed, simple replacement done myself with genuine GM parts from on-line supplier. My ex-Toyota co-worker was very impressed with how quiet and tight the car was after 65K miles. This car feels like brand new at 7 yrs old. Best car I have owned.

  • Great Vehicle - Fun to Drive! - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
    By -

    The car provides greeaattt power, looks good, and not every Tom, Dick and Harry drives one. I notice other drivers checking it out as I drive around town.

  • Better quality than I expected - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
    By -

    Rides comfortably, acceleration good, fun to drive. I have had only 2 minor repairs in 3 years(both electronics) Uses some oil or they dont put enough in at changes. Oil capacity is vague- some vendors say 6 qts and some say 7 qts.

  • Aurora at its Best ! - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
    By -

    I purchased the car in March of 2007, Im the second owner of this Pearl White 2001 Aurora 3.5, it had exactly 50,000 on it when I bought the car. It has been a wonderful vehicle, no time spent in the shop at all, no problems, no nothing! Im very pleased that all Ive had to do is start it and go! I love the style of the car inside and out! Gm could not have done a better job with this one, everything about the car is a pleasure except for fuel economy I average 17 mpg in the city and 25 on the highway other than that I would recommend this vehicle to anyone looking for a quality luxury American car!
