Replying to: javidogg (Jun 13, 2005 6:43 am) Hi Javi,   It is the dark green metalic color. How do I attach an image? I have one the dealer sent me that I can send. Thanks.   Paul Replies to this message: javidogg (Jun 13, 2005 1:47 pm)

Replying to: taylorb27614 (Sep 07, 2001 6:09 am) Hello, I have had a rough weekend. I have a Chevy Venture Van, and I HAD a Dodge Intrepid. Where is this going you ask? Well, this weekend after our van broke down (blown head gasket)I let my wife borrow my baby (the Intrepid). She got in an accident with or kids in the car and totalled the car. No one was hurt but the Fearless car was gone. With that I have an uncle who has an Aurora 4.0 L with all the extras. It only has 50,000 miles on it. At first I thought I want a car I can modify and one that can move, and I have always though Olds where for the older generation (I am 34). Well when I looked at it, I was impressed, then I drove it! I really thin I like it. I guess I just want to see what any ones opinion of the 2000 Aurora is and if it can be modified (i.e. body, engine, etc). I think I could really like it. The intrepid had 2.7L which was not enough for me. I think I will like the 4.0 L. What fun stuff can I do with this Aurora at stop lights and such??

Replying to: dawntreader (Jun 14, 2005 10:29 am) I assume you are talking about the 2001 Aurora (there was no 2000 model - it's the second-generation car, which came either with a 3.5L V6 or the 4.0L V8 your uncle's got).   I don't believe there are a lot of performance mods for these cars - probably the best thing you can do is replace the exhaust system with something like a Corsa. With the older Aurora, the airbox can be gutted for better intake flow and sound, but I don't believe this works on the newer gen.   There is/was a web site (http://www.domesticperformance.com) promising upgrades for the Auroras and other Northstar-powered cars. Unfortunately, there is little demand, so I don't know if any of their ideas have come to fruition.   If you want to modify the car to go faster, the Aurora is probably not for you. If you want to go fast with style, maybe it is.   Just my 2 cents,   --Robert

Replying to: akita (Jun 28, 2005 3:56 am) Akita,   What does "acce" mean? Acceleration? Air conditioning" Or something else?   Factory service manuals are available from www.helminc.com; they are fairly expensive (>$100). You may be able to find one on eBay for less money.   Can you describe the hoses involved? If I know what to look for, I may be able to copy pages from my '97 manual and mail them to you. '97s and '98s are very similar.   Les Replies to this message: gmfamily (Oct 27, 2005 4:43 pm)

Replying to: akita (Jun 28, 2005 3:56 am) Yoshi,   Your reply to me (#143 I think) seems to have disappeared, so I do not have your email address. The sketches in the service manual are not very good, so I took photos myself. I can email the files to you if if I can get your email address.   Les Young
#145 of 178 Trading in my aurora by pl390 Jul 16, 2005 (8:08 pm)
Hi all,    Well my wife needs a new Mini van to haul kids and hockey bags around town. Last year my company provided a car for me so my 1997 Aurora has been used very little. I took it with me to see about a trade in and he told me $ 6200. Its in very good shape with only 74K . The guy called me three time not about the van but on the trade in of my car. Is this a fair price? I was going to keep or give the car to a family member that needs one. Thank you in advance for you response.     PL390 Replies to this message: hammen2 (Jul 16, 2005 9:18 pm) KarenS (Jul 18, 2005 8:09 am)

Replying to: pl390 (Jul 16, 2005 8:08 pm) There's a "Real World Trade-in Values" thread over in the Smart Shopper discussion. Terry (rroyce10) can tell you, based on an accurate description of your vehicle, what it's worth.   --Robert who thinks that sounds great for an 8+ year old car, but doesn't know what options, etc. it has.
