  • The Best - 1999 Buick Century
    By -

    I purchased this vehicle originally to show Real estate in Albuquerque, NM. aaaaaaaaaand I did . the only reason I am selling is because the Buyers in Santa Fe would like me to take them in avehicle that can handle dirt roads. so now I need a SUV. I am currently 69 years old. I drive this wonderful vehicle as I would show a beautiful property. In other words I have retained all maintenance records.You won"t believe this vehicle has 95000 miles. See for yourself.Call me for a Showing. 505 4121593. They call the color GOLD.This vehicle handles like a LEXUS.And the best part of it all you can seat 6 grownups. Thank you for your time.

    Ive had the car almost a year and had no problems. Very comfortable on long trips. Doesnt handle like a sports car, but thats okay. Added bonus: insurance is cheap because this is one of the least stolen cars.

  • Decent - 1999 Buick Century
    By -

    Have had very few problems with the car which include a failed front pass. side wheel bearing which was about $500 to fix but other than that its been a good buy at around 7 grand. Gas mileage has been ok at about 25 highway but 13 or so around town and since i only have a 2 mile commute that kinda hurts but the car isnt even warmed up yet by the time i pull into work so i cant complain much.

  • Buick has lost two customers for life - 1999 Buick Century
    By -

    Problems, problems, problems. My wife purchased this car new and put 29,000 miles on it before we sold it. In that time frame the car needed to be repaired over sisteen times. Not the same thing every time, but different things on a regular basis. Im not talking minor things either. Before this Buick we have only purchased GM products and have been well satisified with them. However when we purchased this one things changed. If you buy a new GM product and have problems, be prepared to get the run around. I strongly encourage you to look elsewhere, ther are better cars and companies to do business with.

  • Good Little Boring Car - 1999 Buick Century
    By -

    This car is a great buy for someone who wants comfortable, cheap transportation. The amount of things you get on this car for the price is great. The 3.1L V6 is both powerful in the low rev range and gets good gas mileage. This is an old GM motor which has proven to be very reliable if a bit noisy. The styling is very boring on the outside but simple and well placed on the inside. Build quality is lacking as the body panels have big gaps and part of the ceiling has come down in the rear. The trunk and the interior are both spacious and comfy. Ride quality is pillowy soft but the tires are of very bad quality and make a lot of noise.

    LOVE CAR...NOTHING MAJOR WRONG SINCE I GOT THE CAR..JUST LITTLE THINGS LIKE THE HORN STOPPED WORKING. OTHERWISE GREAT WORKING CAR.AFTER I DROVE IT 20,000 MILES BRAKES WERE LOW.

  • Buick Century - very good but some probl - 1999 Buick Century
    By -

    The car is generally very good. It did have a water leak in the intake manifold just before the 36000 mile warrantee. The brake pedal has to be lubricated a lot or it sqeeks. The door molding moves and causes the doors to stick, had fixed twice. If you have dew on the side windows rolling them down and up does nothing, have to wipe them.

    In July, 1999 I contacted my local Buick dealer via email & told him what I was looking for. In a few minutes I learned that what I wanted, (with exception of a $75 stripe on the side)was on his lot. I did not dicker on the following offer $200 over invoice $1500 rebate $500+ credit from GM Card.
