This is the most reliable vehicle I have owned and I have owned or leased over 10 vehicles. The power and handling ability are exceptional and the lumbar support and power seats make this a most comfortable car to drive. Oldsmobile has truly created a fine luxury vehicle beating the former European luxury car I owned before with its comfort, handling, and power. Too bad GM is discontinuing Oldsmobile. They should place the Aurora into the Buick line as its luxury sport vehicle.
GM strikes again!!

This is a comfortable and stylish car. Has poor fit and finish...many rattles,water leaks into floorboard,brakes warped,front end vibration,exterior trim loose,major electrical problems that have still not been fixed despite a total of 25 days in the shop on 4 occasions,steering wheel pops when turned,new alternator,and on it goes. Since they can't fix the major electrical problems, and for all the other trouble I have had, GM sent me a "good will certificate" good for $1500 dollars off my next purchase.BIG DEAL. Stay from these cars, unless you have an extended warranty, and lots of time to camp out at the dealer for repairs.

The Aurora 4.0 is a distinctive automobile with creature comforts and plenty of power. It sports a number of techno-features including a low tire pressure alarm. The car is sure-footed and able to operatew with any grade of unleaded gasoline, although 93 octane provides the most punch. My most negative impression is from the stock Michellin tires: they're a strange size and the warranty proved to be worthless.

Overall 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.

Who needs a V8 when the 3.5L V6 delivers smooth powerful acceleration and good fuel economy? Plus you stand out from the crowd since there aren"t that many around.
Better quality than I expected

Rides comfortably, acceleration good, fun to drive. I have had only 2 minor repairs in 3 years(both electronics) Uses some oil or they don't put enough in at changes. Oil capacity is vague- some vendors say 6 qts and some say 7 qts.
A masterpiece of engineering.

This is our third Aurora.During this time we also had two Cadillacs. When i retired we had a 1997 Aurora and a 1997 Cadillac. We sold the Cadillac, though satisfied with it, we felt the Aurora offered more driving pleasure. We drive around town and across co

This car has a nice luxurious feel about it without being 'your daddys oldsmobile'. It fits nice, drives great and keeps up its appearance and does not get boring to drive into your second, third or fourth year owning it. I wish my 3.5 6-cyl had a bit more spunk but the upside is that it has great gas mileage. I haven't had any major problems with the car until the 3rd year where little minor things started to act up.
E Bay Purchase

I bid on and won this car on E Bay. I specifically wanted an Aurora after owning a 3.5 L back in 2001 which, by the time I sold it in 2005 had 92,000 trouble free miles on it. I wish I could say the same for the SUV I replaced it with. I have put 17,000 on my 4.0 L since February and it is still going strong. There have been minor issues but all have been simple to take care of without the need for a dealer or auto shop to be involved. I look daily at E Bay to find another good deal as when my wife's lease goes back guess what she will be driving. Great car, exceptional value for money. GM should have made this a Cadillac

The 2001 Aurora 4.0 that I have owned for the past 2 years has been the best car that I have ever driven or seen in the 43 years that I have been driv- ing. There is not enough space here for me to say how great this car is.
