"Had this car for 3 years or so...haven't had to put any money into it at all.Just put a new set of tires on it and it really smoothed out the ride and got rid of the road noise. ABS light has been on forever but doesn't affect anything...i will get it sorted out at some point. Lots of power...the "Augusta Green" paint still looks great. I got a good deal with low miles and I couldn't be happier with my 2004 Century."

"My whole family owns Buick Centuries now. It started with me buying my wife a 2002, then us buying a used Century for each of our Daughters as they graduated from College. I just bought this 1997 Century and LOVE it. Sure, the '97 lacks the dual passenger heat zones and enough cup holders. But the 3.1 liter push rod GM V6 just goes and goes. Keep good struts in these cars and they handle just fine. Most get 30 MPG on the highway, although this one seems to get less for some reason. The styling has been made fun of. Too bad. They are decent looking and so very functional. Why buy an equivalent Honda for 1 1/2 times the price when you can buy a 10 year old Century for so good a price as these generally go for? I love these Buicks for how handy they are, their roominess, and great function."

"When my 1994 Geo Metro was totaled in my driveway by an Ford F-150, I needed a car soon and fast. So I received $3000 for my Metro and started looking on Craigslist within my local area, and found this 2003 Buick Century and the gentleman was selling it for $2300. OMG that was 75% lower than the normal Private retail price, so I contacted the gentleman and the car was mine within a day! And I absolutely LOVE this car! It's comfortable, yet luxurious, trendy, and low-key so I won't get keyed at the store! My fiance' and I love going on long road-trips in it, and it's not as big as the Park Avenue, but you cannot tell when you're in it cuz it's like driving a big comfy couch! And it was definitely worth the price! It has a few quirks as does every car, but I gotta say I love Buick so much that in the future I will definitely buy another Buick in a heartbeat! All American Made Baby! :D"
