Used 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora Consumer Reviews
Best For The $$$$$
I Contemplated between the V8 & the V6 test drove both the 8 wasnt significantly more powerful In other words I didnt notice a difference between the 2 But the Fuel economy on the 6 is Outstanding over 420 miles on a tank during regular Highway driving. Enough power to challenge most other cars on the road over 125 m.p.h. for over an hr going to San Diego from Chicago through Utah over 50K miles and still drives like new with no proiblems whatsoever.
Great Car
My Aurora 3.5 is the best car I have owned - high quality, great sound system and fun to drive. The main complaint has been from my kids who say the middle back seat is uncomfortable. My mileage is 25 to 26 and have only had the car in for repair once in over 3 years (minor warranty items).
Aurora ought to have been a Cadillac
This is my second Olds Aurora, and I have never been more pleased with a car. The features and functions on this car exceed what is found on the typical Cadillac, Lincoln, BMW, etc. My other car is a 2002 Corvette, and I really enjoy the quiet ride, comfort and relative performance of the Aurora. Not much can beat performance of Vette, but Aurora does me just fine, especially on the highway. For the money, you can get no better car. Am really unhappy they discontinued Olds. Have looked at Cadillac CTS and BMW 330 and decided to stick with the Aurora.
hate to see it go
This is my 2nd aurora. I owned a 1997 first. Have bought 4 new cadillacs since 1986 and for the money this car puts them all to shame. I enjoy driving this car on long trips.
2001 Aurora
This is the best Olds I've ever owned and I've 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+.
