1997 Oldsmobile Aurora review from North America
"Cadillac quality with a Pinto price tag"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Well first off the compressor went out.
Next to go was the steering column, I think that the steering column went out only because the mechanic that rebuilt the compressor lowered the suspension to far, thus snapping the steering column.
General comments?
Very comfortable ride.
Notable power.
Quiet ride almost Cadillac quiet.
Descent sound system (I don't even have Bose).
Heated seats (oh how I have become so spoiled).
Tilted mirror when you reverse is really nice.
