1996 Oldsmobile Aurora Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, drivers have a positive view of the 1996 Oldsmobile Aurora, appreciating its spacious interior, comfortable ride, and impressive power from the V8 engine. Many love its ability to handle well and provide decent fuel efficiency on highways, while also feeling luxurious. The drawbacks mentioned include less-than-stellar city fuel economy and potential maintenance issues, but overall, it stands as a reliable and enjoyable choice."
I love this car! I have owned it for 2 years, and have only had to work on it once which was the radiator (but that doesn't mean I haven't worked on it more!) i have done many things to my car, and I love it because it's a V8 that can get 30 mpg on the highway, but still light up pretty much all of the little ricers that pull up beside me...it also rides like a luxury car and handles like a sports car.
March 17, 2011performance, torque steer is manageable build quality, did have to fix wiring between frame and drivers door. appearance, great sheet metal with awesome aerodynamics, and fully loaded black leather interior with power seats, heated with lumbar, heated mirrors, tinted rearview mirror, fun factor, is a ten, big heavy car with a ride as comfy as a caddy, but with the balls that it will smoke a civic any day of the week
January 27, 2012I'll admit it wouldn't be my first choice of car, but it has served me well. it's got a lot of room and handles well for what it is. The styling isn't bad, although a different tail would be nice. The V8 certainly doesn't boast excellent fuel effiency, but it gives it a decent amount of HP to play with. Overall, not a bad car at all.

January 1, 2008RELIABILITY, Acceleration, Comfort, Looks, and great Highway mpg. Lousy City mpg but any V8 is the same. Will stand against ANY German make I feel of the similar year. Amazing V8 Dual Overhead Cam for GM and I'm guessing it was a spinoff of the OHC that Lotus helped Chevy make for Corvette and rock solid 4 speed Transmission with Sport mode selection. The car actually handles well for a cruiser and gets about 26 mpg on trips. Needs bigger tires/wheels with Air Suspension if I had my way. I ONLY have replaced water pump, Fuel System Regulator and had radiator fixed once. I just don't understand why its so poorly held its value since the Chevy Malibu of the same year is still 10K. Probably FWD.
