Frustrated & At Wits End!
This car is a fortune to repair. Purchased used and had all scheduled maintanence. In spite of that the Air conditioning, water pump,brakes, radiator, CD Player among other things had to be replace. Now I have serious computer and electrical problems(tied to the engine and transmission)that mechanics are having trouble diagnosing. Most have suggested I get out from under ASAP. Unfortunately this leaves me with no other option than to take a loss on the vehicle, since I still owe thousands on it. Wish I had researched the car before purchasing - Based on other reviws I suspect my transmission and/or engine are about to go... Expensive life lesson!
2+ years on and no regrets
Now @ 100K miles, other than a tuneup at 95,000 I have only replaced the water pump and installed a new 4-5 shift kit. Uses no oil, no fluid leaking anywhere, still runs like a banshee (I love blowing the doors off of amazed Datsun Z owners), still turns heads at 10 years old and I have no regrets. Expensive to repair? Sure, what do you have that isn't?

Over 300k miles
I just picked up this car at an auction last week. It has 306000 miles on it. I was extremely skeptical about buying something with that kind of mileage, but the car sat and idled so smooth, the A/C was ice cold, I could find nothing wrong with it. Ive been driving it the past week and it runs like new. I cant believe some of the reviews Ive been reading. Surely a poor product wouldnt have made it over 300k miles and still look and run as good as this one does. And for the people that claim their japanese junk is better than an oldsmobile are f.o.s. Ive had two hondas, one with 100k miles and one with 160k miles. The tranny went out and the motor b
Wish They Still Made This
The original Aurora was/still is a dream car. Very clean styling, comfortable, great to drive. I'd buy another in a flash if they still made them. (I don't count the remodeled Aurora as a real Aurora. Oldsmobile should have luxuried up rather than cheaping down. The second version wasn't worth considering.) There were some new model problem initially -- covered by warranty -- but now the car just drives and drives ... wonderfully.
It was a good car
I thoroughly enjoyed this vehicle; compared with other American full-size sedans of the era, it was truly second to none - and I include Cadillac and Lincoln in there as well. In many ways, it also held its own against the car my father was driving at the time I purchased it - a 1990 BMW 735i. At the time I purchased it, the ride was excellent, and the engine has always been a delight - wonderful torque.
