Aurora
Interior is very comfortable, soft leather seats and air suspension makes ride relaxing. On the high way, if driven on cruise set to 75mph, you will get better fuel economy (around 28mpg). Overall car is luxurious, a lots of toys, but watch out if something brakes get ready, not too many mechanics are ready to fix Aurora and vast majority of them will send you straight to a dealership. Major organs; engine and transmission are more reliable than in majority of American cars, but the problem is in electronics this part is the real headache.
Great Luxury for the Price
Before coming across this car I was driving Cadillacs, Lexuses, Infinities, and Acuras, all used. I was looking for luxury for under $10K. All these vehicles (within the price range) were either too old or too beat up. Then I found the Aurora, which I don't recall ever seeing one on the road. Ride is every bit just as smooth, steering is soft but a bit jerky(You turn left or right effortlessly but once you get about 90 degrees on the steering wheel its almost like it wants to continue on its own), and very responsive with the gas pedal, though slightly not as nice with the transmission but adequate, it rides like any luxury car out there.

Mediocre
I've has this car for almost 2 years now. So far, I've enjoyed it. My girlfriend hasn't. She thinks the body's to big. I like the way it picks up. Whenever I'm at a red light I usually smoke everyone lined up with me. The leather seats are nice. The interior seems a little cheap. It has 3 lighters and none work. Also, it uses too much gas.
