Not your old man's Oldsmobile

I bought my Aurora used and have really enjoyed the car. Even with being over a decade old, it feels brand new when cruising down the road. Sporty yet refined, it should've been considered a pinnacle of the American car market. Plenty of horse under the hood and corners well for a bigger car. Feels like riding on a cloud thanks to the plush seating and the comfy suspension. Great car!

This makes number 4

This is the fourth AURORA I have owned, Although I had to drive 350 miles one way to see and buy the car it never would have happened without cars .com. The dealer was very helpful and answered all questions I had about the car even after I had viewed the car fax.The best thing about these cars are the value for the money as both my daughters drive one of these and they both love the car.

My first car...

When I first got my Aurora, I loved it. I really do like it still but wouldn't recommend it to anyone. It has only about 86k on it and the head gaskets are bad in it. I don't know if that is the fault of the owner before me or not but I had it for about 6 months before I had any serious problems with it. Also the headlights would blink on and off by themselves. Other than those things...it runs really good and it is a really pretty car. Labor is pricey on this vehicle. My boyfriend has a 97 Aurora and his timing chain needs to be replaced. They have motor issues, I guess.

What a great car!

I bought a used '99 Aurora and it has been a great car! It has good power and is the smoothest car I've ever driven! My friends all think it is a better ride than their Caddy, and it is better around the corners. I get about 22 mpg and the car hasn't had any problems even past 90,000 miles! I love the engine and how it drives, and it is so comfortable on trips you almost forget you are driving it. Its hard to believe such an expensive car is now so cheap as a used one!
