WOW GREAT CAR

Just bought an 03 century from a local dealer my ford aspire and my wifes dodge dynasty died a minth apart.Saw the buick sitting on the lot and was attracted by the styling,once i took a test drive i was hooked.Our car started out life as an Avis rental and was owned by a local couple for years the ride handleing and comfort are all i could hope for,only gas milage is not the best,but a safer more well built car you won't find.

Great

This car was handed down from my dad to myself as my first car in June 2010. The car has 229,000 miles on it, and still runs very well with very few problems. Only very recently did I have any trouble with the engine, which may be partly due to the cold weather here in Indiana. This car has stood the test of many miles, and I would reccomend it to anyone, especially for a first car.

Excellent car!!!

I was given this car by my mother when she felt she was too old to drive. It has been an exceptional car with very little upkeep and no real repair issues. We are currently in the market for a second one for my husband! With kids in college, this is a very affordable car that we can trust. Drives very smooth and is comfortable. Only problem is the lack of drink holders in the back seat :)

Awesome Vehicle

This vehicle is fantastic! It gets great milage and has been incredibly reliable. 8 years out it doesn't have any mechanical issues and I have only had to replace one or two basic things since I've owned it. I love my buick and love the fact that getting said parts is easy and painless. The only issue I have with the vehicle is with the internal molding on the base of the passenger door coming off way to easily (2 pieces, one by the front passenger door and the other by the rear passenger door). Otherwise, get this vehicle if you can find one in good condition!

Best ever,

I am currently a 17 year old student. I was given a 2003 buick century tan, with about 90k miles on it. As soon as I saw it, I felt like I was going to be mocked; a lot of older car buyers tended to buy tan buick centuries. Either way, I judged it too soon. The handling is AMAZING to say the least. Since i live in new york, I confront a great deal of snow. If you have this car, you will have absolutely no problem getting through it. I have had no problems with this car yet, and I have had it for about a year. I suggest all teens start out with this car; the thing is a tank. I feel safe driving this car, and will continue to buy buicks in the future.
