  More on 1995 oldsmobile aurora
Oldsmobile quickly launched other new models with the Aurora "look," including the all-new Intrigue and Alero, the redesigned Eighty-Eight, and even updated the division's "rocket" logo to be more visually in-line with the Aurora's emblem.
Oldsmobile's original intention for the second generation was to move the Aurora further upmarket, retaining its V8-only drivetrain and sharing a platform with the new Buick Riviera, as the original Aurora had done.
With the demise of Oldsmobile, the successor to the Aurora is the Buick Lucerne.

After a series of speedy switchbacks in which the Olds was able to put distance between itself and the 1990 BMW 325is following behind, we zipped into a parking lot next to a mini-mart to obtain refreshments.
As I was saying, the Intrigue was more than capable in the twisties, generating enough g-force to cause my father to temporarily forget about all the fun we used to have in his Saab Turbo on very similar roads when I was learning how to drive.
Under the hood of the Intrigue is a 3800 Series II V6 engine, making 195 horsepower at 5,200 rpm, 220 lb.ft. of torque at 4,000 rpm, and whole lot of noise when accelerating.

 Close Finishes: Truck Series Night Race Adds Tradition, History at Darlington
Brassington’s idea to build a racetrack out on 70 acres of land one mile from downtown Darlington proved to be somewhat of a dark comedy when the project began construction on December 13, 1949.
Interest in the inaugural Southern 500 was high and speedway officials had to open the track’s infield to allow early arriving fans to camp overnight.
Unfortunately, the Darlington 200 might also mark a final appearance for the Truck Series at Darlington as the track is not on the division’s 2005 schedule of events.
