Used 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora Sedan Consumer Reviews
Smooth ride, great value
I bought this care used with about 18,000 miles. Currently at 108,000. Smooth ride, luxurious for the price, good acceleration, good stereo, hugs the road. No engine trouble besides it started burning about a quart of oil every 1000 miles once I hit 50k. No biggie from my perspective. Very nice car, no complaints whatsoever. Love the pearl white paint. Nice aluminum wheels. Great trunk space. Leather has held up well. Nice look from the front at night with a cool headlight design.
I'd Recommend This Car To A Friend
I compared the Aurora to the Lincoln LS, Toyota Avalon and Chrystler 300M. I found the Aurora to be far superior. The performance has been excellent and nothing has disappointed me. The options are great, from the dual heated power front seats to the rain-sensing wipers. An excellent value with option only found in much more expensive vehicles. Only dislike is the view of the headlights...looks too much like the Olds Intrigue. I would and have recommended this car to friends.
Love It
This is an awesome car! I spend two hours a day in my Aurora. I am so pleased with comfort, style, and performance. This was a perfect used car purchase with a huge depreciation from the brand new purchase price. I am sorry for all of you bought new. Too bad Olds decided to end, I would want to buy this car again. All the reviews here helped me decide on this purchase. The white with chrome wheels and tinted windows are a perfect choice for a chick car. This is definitely not my grandfathers car. It tickles me when I see another Aurora with older folks at the wheel. Seeing another Aurora is a rare site. Great to be different!
Sharp looking, satisfying
I enjoy the look, comfort , performance and reliability of my Aurora. Combined city-highway driving average is about 23 mpg at speed limits. Handles moderate bumps a little stiff (like all three of the Oldsmobiles I have owned). I was expecting a little sportier ride (handling in the curves), but overall I am very satisfied with my Aurora. I wished GM had not discontinued them.
Outstanding Car
I just bought my 4.0 used a few months ago, after reconsidering an SUV purchase...Who really needs 90 cubic feet of space...I got so much luxury for my money...Its a shame the resale is so low...the cars handles flawlessly...I feel the road and the engin at work together and was shocked at the balls in this car...off the line its great and the interier is outstanding...soo comfortable to drive anywhere. I have a FULLY loaded version and after hours of time spent on comparison...could not find one reason to not buy this car...It seems to be the best kept secret on the road. Sorry it has to go
