Be careful...

Aurora's are nice..but be very careful when buying one. Northstar engine is notorious for having leaky head gaskets at the back of the engine. they have a GREAT deal of power..but if you ask me, the heads were not designed to take the power. Interior was great. Options were wonderful. Has 174000 miles on it and all the bearings needed replaced at the same time! thermostat is $51!~ Tires are hard to find and expensive! Parts are very expensive..and they hold no resale value cause Oldsmobile is closed and the Northstar has a bad rep. I drove five of these before I found mine.

Good highway cruiser and town car

Brake rotors had to be replaced at 52000 miles. Radio antenna automation is out and will need repair. For the price it was the best car we could find that had good climate control and a silent and comfortable ride with good front wheel drive traction control for the Colorado icy roads. This is a nice highway cruiser while not being too large for around town driving. We bought an extended warranty (cost $1200) for 100,000 miles from Warranty Direct.

Great Car

This has been a great car to own. We have had it for 4 years (almost 50,000 miles) and the only thing that has been done to it is regular oil changes. Gas mileage has been very good, 19 to 20 miles per gallon in town. It is also fun to drive. The only negative I can think of is the radio volume control. It is either too loud or too soft. If GM were going to continue the oldsmobile line, I would defintely purchase another one.

Great vehicle, sorry to hear that Olds will be dropping out of the picture. I would buy another one if they kept the line.
