This Year's Model Updates:

The deletion of the Century Limited trim level from the 2003 model lineup leaves us with a lone Century this year, and it offers only a short list of updates. Most important to note is that antilock brakes, OnStar and the driver side-impact airbag are now optional, instead of standard equipment. Other standard features moved to the optional equipment list include the rear glass antenna, front bucket seats and accompanying center console, cassette player, split-folding rear seat, sunroof, heated exterior mirrors and the 15-inch aluminum wheels. Other changes remain largely aesthetic; a new exterior appearance package adds revised fascias, updated door moldings and a graphite color grille. Inside, the Century benefits only from new wood switch plates. There's also a new starter for improved cold weather cranking and an impact-absorbing headliner that exceeds new federal requirements.

Pros:
  • Roomy, clean styling, low base price.
Cons:
  • Stodgy image, mushy seats, engine lacks quiet smoothness of competitors.

    I bought this car for my wife but some how Ive been driving it more than her. I wasnt crazy about it at first but it was the most car we could get for the money. Its looks are just so so but what really bugs me is that I cant go to town without seeing at least three more Buicks just likt it. Maybe Ill add a strip or something. One thing that I love is that I get 27mpg around town.

  • The Price is Right!! And So Is The Car.. - 2003 Buick Century

    I recently had a son and wanted something practical for him and my fiance. This car gives you alot for what you pay for. With the Rebates , I Paid about 5000 less than the sticker with 500 down. Great Ride, Nice Powerful engine, and it is a great looking car. To those of you who have not looked at Buick for your families auto needs, Look again. Its everything You need , plus it rates high in all the safety ratings. Good Car, Good Price and Lots of Quality. I grew up on Buicks,its all my father bought...He was A Buick Man...And now, so am I.

    I like the car and it has pretty good gas mileage. Nothing fancy but good reliability.

    I purchased a 2002 dealers demo for $13,000, and it had 11,000 miles on the odometer. You cant get a Toyota Corrolla for that deal, not to mention its allot less of a car than the Buick. I know I owned one. The ride and the comfort speak for themselves, I would by another one in a heartbeat.

    We like the vehicle it has been a long time since we drove a sedan so have had a little trouble getting use to it. We would purchase it again. It rides nice and so far no trouble with it. We only have 4,000 miles on it.

  • comfort-finally had to break down - 2003 Buick Century
    By -

    After renting a few of these on trips I decided I had to have the comfort of a big car but not at a big price. After researching the Century I was impressed with the bang one gets for the buck. It rides like a dream and my 24 mpg in the city [combined driving] is very impressive. Yes, its not very modern looking but Im already fantisizing about a LeSabre!

  • Great Value for less money - 2003 Buick Century

    Buicks are exceptional cars. My last Buick was a 1993 Park Avenue still running great after 258,000 miles with only minimal repairs.
