My Olds - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By johnbauer - March 26 - 6:36 pmOverall rating is "Very Good". The only problem was the Computer Control Center, and this was handled under the warrentee at 45,000 miles. City mileage is OK at 18.5 mpg and 24 on the highway. The car is very comfortable and handles well.

Good value - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By sputnick - March 10 - 10:00 amMy 3.5 has been very dependable. I like the new style - it definitely turns heads, with people asking what is it? Comfortable on highway and good handling in city. Compares very favorably to imports when consider the price.

I LOVE this car! - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By Jerry - February 18 - 6:53 pmThis must be the last best built American car made! Sorry they decided to stop making them! GM has not been on the mark with it lately. I take this big boy down to Florida from NY and have all the comfort and 27 mpg! We have had the car for 2 years with no problems and this was a rental car at one time. Sorry to hear that some have had issues but there`s always a lemon!

Long term review (after 3 years) - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By mtach3 - January 18 - 8:06 pmI wrote my first review a month after I had it.I still love it after 3 years, but I had to replace the engine and tranny.The warranty I bought with the car covered ALL the repairs.The tranny was easy, but the engine was a problem.It kept overheating and it took 9 attempts before the dealership figured out the engine block had a clog.Because they kept returning the car to me without properly repairing it,the motor died.In the process they replaced every part of the cooling system.Finally,they replaced the motor with a brand new one from GM.Most of this issue was due to a bad service center.If they fixed it right the first time it would have cost them $400. Instead, it was $9,000. Duh!!

2001 Aurora - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By Joelin - November 15 - 10:00 amThis is the best Olds Ive ever owned and Ive owned quite a few of them. Traded in a 98 Taurus for this car and am I glad I did. The gas mileage for a big car is excellent, much better than the Taurus, 29+.

No Luck - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By bh_okedoke - September 8 - 10:00 amI traded my 98 Aurora for the 01 model. In the last 10 months, the following replacements (all under warranty) - Steering column, power steering pump, ignition switch, ABS control module, transmission overhaul, and as of this weekend, the alternator. Mind you, this car has under 31K miles... I think I got the car built on Monday morning!

Sporty - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By Kim Hensley - July 27 - 10:00 amI am really enjoying my Aurora. I have only had it a few months but it is really fun to drive. Love the heated seats in the winter :) The only complaint that I have is the rattle in the dash and passenger doors.

Good value - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By Mike - June 27 - 10:53 amNormally I dont like to buy American cars, but after doing my research I decided to take a chance on the Aurora. I am very pleased overall with the car.The acceleration is brisk but it could use a little more low end power.I bought a K&N drop in air filter and helps with throttle responce. The interior is well laid out and conrols are easy to use. The exterior is awesome. I have back problems and long trips are a difficult, but in this car, Im really comfortable.Ive had no mechanical problems at all.considering what I paid for the car and all the features it has, its a good value. I would suggest that if you purchase an Aurora, or any American car, get an extended warranty.

My last GM car - 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora
By 3 Time Olds Owner - June 21 - 1:46 amI have owned 5 GM products but this is my last one. The car has needed $1500 in transmission work, $300 to fix a steering shaft, has suffered a leaking trunk and leaking sun roof, has various electrical gremlins, and has been an overall disappointment. Of the last 6 oil changes, only one visit was just for an oil change, in fact Ive spent over $4000 in repairs in two years. Its no wonder why GM went bankrupt after owning this car.
