  • Best Used Car Ever!!! - 2004 Buick Century
    By -

    I bought this car used with over 150,000 miles on it. I was worried about the high mileage at first. I have driven this car over 50,000 miles with no problems. This is the most comfortable and reliable car I have ever had. I did not know it before I purchased this car but I am a Buick fan for life. Great Car, Great gas mileage, high comfort level, great reliability.

    Just recently purchased a 2004 Century with 79,000Kms in absolutely mint condition. Nice Metallic Augusta Green paint job with not one blemish. Wasnt on my radar at all until I read in Consumer reports that it had fantastic reliability and could be had for cheaper than comparable Japanese models. I dont see it as an "Old Man" car...the styling is sharp and I mistook an older Lexus for one the other day. Very Very happy with the car..lots of power..nice smooth ride over rough road surfaces. Thinking a nice set of Rims and a better set of tires would really kick it up a notch and I will have a car that will turn heads and last me for years.

  • Indestructible tank - 2004 Buick Century
    By -

    I needed a cheap car a few years ago and put a lot of miles on vehicles. Love my Lexus but not going to put 30 or 40 k a year on it. So bought a 2004 with 40k and dry rotted tires, put new tires on the beast and drove it for 6 yrs, a couple of minor repairs and regular tires and maintenance for another 220,000 miles. It still runs strong and looks ok. Damned tank! Love it.

    I used this car for as comuter car. I have 100k on the car now, never missed a beat. One set of tires and front brakes is all I have done. Way quieter than a Camry and 30+ mpg. It is the best car I have ever owned. Would highly recommend the Buick to anyone who wants miles of trouble free service and great gas mileage for a larger car.

    Ive owned my 2004 Century for 5 months and Im very pleased. I intended on purchasing a Honda Accord and stumbled onto this Buick so I gave it a test drive. I was truly surprised, The comfort, quiet and ride quality both in town and on the highway is unlike anything Ive experienced. The biggest surprise is the gas millage, I ve experienced near 28 MPG in town and over 34 on the highway. This is better than the Accords 4 cylinder. The depreciation was double that of the Honda and subsequently over half the cost for the same year vehicle. It was a easy decision, Im very pleased with the car and expect many years of satisfied driving. I highly recommend a late model Century.

    Ive owned my new Century for 2 months, and true to Buicks form, its a great car! It handles well, is comfortable, and not too bad on fuel mileage either. My old car was a 1992 Buick Regal that had 320,000 miles on it when I traded it off. . . it was a great car! I expect the Century to be equally great. When I trade . .I trade for a Buick!

    I bought this 2004 Century only recently, but like it a lot. It continues my great experience with Buicks. This 2004 Century replace a 1992 Century which I also enjoyed a lot. I also own a 2002 Buick LeSabre which replaced a 1990 Buick LeSabre, which had replaced a 1980 Buick Regal. Buicks have very good quality, few problems and last long.

    This is the best vehicle I have ever seen for sitting comfort and a smooth bump free ride.

    Purchased in April 2004. Drive 280 miles a day 3 days a week plus weekend short trips here and there. Gas mileage thus far has been excellent with 30 to 31 mpg on the highway which is most of my driving time. Comfortable, peppy when needed 3.1, 6cyl. Quiet and smooth ride. Easy to read and maneuver controls and dials.

  • Great Ride - 2004 Buick Century
    By -

    This is my third Century. I cover the state of Ohio, as a saleman, and put about 40,000 miles a year on the car. I can,t say enough about the Century, great ride, and great reliability its never let me down. The only maintance is oil changes, normal wear items like tires and brakes. To bad this is the last year for the Century. The LaSalle is beautiful but it costs to much for a guy on a company car plan.
