So my grandpa, who has been dead for 23 years, had an Oldsmobile 88 diesel way back when I was a kid. I thought it was the most comfortable car I’d ever ridden in. Through the years I always wanted an Olds but just never bought one. I’m the type who buys a vehicle and keeps it for many years. My 03 Chevy Silverado is getting rusted and beat. I’ve done a lot to it to keep it running over the years and it’s been nice, but recently I’ve really missed having a car. I always used to see the Aurora on the road, not much recently though, and always thought it was a damn good looking car and I always wanted one. Flash forward to today and I finally bought one. It’s a 2001 4.0 in Diamond White with 88000 miles. Condition wise it looks amazing for a 20 year old car. Zero rust and only a few dings in the paint here and there. It has a few mechanical issues but nothing super serious by the looks of things. I plan on addressing these and keeping the car for a long time. It rides and handles great. Tons of get up and go. I’ve never had a V8 in a car before. Anyway, I look forward to reading the forums and enjoying the car!
