Capuccino Aurora

2003 Oldsmobile Aurora 4.0 4dr Sedan (4.0L 8cyl 4A)

Big sport sedan with a de-bored Northstar 32V V8 that is super smooth and works well with the great automatic. Handling is tight and firm for a big sedan.

I have never been able to find a car comparable to it. A four door family sedan with performance and style and even a V8. I am giving it to my son.

This is the highest value luxury car on the road. It is a thrill to drive for short utility trips, fun cruises, & road hauls. Comfort is terrific, especially for such a sporty handling machine. It tracks like a smart bomb -- even white out, ice blizzards, at night. I've never driven such a roadworthy machine. It's wonderful -- & I generally cannot tolerate GM vehicles! (P.S. Avoid the 3.5 model; it's underpowered; only buy the 4.0)

Best driver's cockpit available. Fun ride, extraordinary comfort with sporty handling & great responsiveness. Outstanding drive train. Good build. Bottom line: I wish GM still made this car!

2002 Oldsmobile Aurora 3.5 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 4A)

Car has been In my family always. Now has 181,000 miles on it and it runs great. The body design fits right in with todays models. The 3.5 engine is one of the best GM has ever made. I still get 32-35 miles per gallon at 60 mph. I get 26 at 70. Car is comfy on longer trips. In todays world this car would sticker for well over$40,000. This is my every day driver and I am completely satisfied with it. I will never understand why GM discontinued Oldsmobile.
