Congrats to Rob (rca99aurora) and his '99 for this July/August '10 dual month feature! Gotta love the name "Flo" given to his '99 Bronze Mist. A few words from the owner:
------------------------------------------------------------------
First of all I would like to say THANK YOU! I never expected to be voted for MFA even though it was a goal of mine. I'm glad to be the first Bronze Mist MFA! I want to thank anyone who voted but mostly I want to thank the ACNA community for all the help I've gotten so far, you guys have gotten me through some hard times with my 'rora and made them a little less scary and also a lot less costly! ACNA to me is more of a family than a forum
Now on to my Aurora ;D, Her name is Flo and she is a beautiful '99 Bronze Mist Metallic non-autobahn with tan (neutral) interior, heated seats, and a sunroof. She was born on 11-07-98 in Orion Michigan. There are only 23 Auroras out there just like her. She currently just rolled over to 124,000 miles and she is still running like a dream. I’ve spent almost a year with her now, I fell in love the first time I saw her back in August of '09. I had to get rid of my car about a month or two before I found her. At the time I didn’t know a whole lot about the amazing vehicle known as the Aurora and was just scouring the used car lots looking for nice cars in my price range. I was looking at a Dodge Intrepid ???but was none too impressed ::)until the saleswoman said "how about that Olds over there?" I looked over and all I thought was V8! Four days later and she was in my driveway.
Flo and I have been through a lot over this past year, already I have fixed myself (and with the help of ACNA): The notorious sending unit, pads and rotors on all four corners, the fuel door, the door handle, and the serpentine belt. She has only been to the shop twice since I've owned her, for a tune-up and a bad pcm ground. I have also done a few mods to her as well including: Clear corners, the LED rear panel, gutted air box, straight pipes from the "Y" back, and tinted "Aurora Logo" tail lights (in the style of MyLexus420). Future mods will be some bigger five spoke rims, HID's, and very soon to come window tints.
And now I will let Flo speak for herself:
