Pros Smooth Driving Family Car That's Fun To Drive
Cons None Worthy To Mention
Recommended it? Yes

Last weekend when I traveled with my children to Louisiana, I had to rent a car to drive into Baton Rouge because we had to fly into New Orleans on our flight. Because I wanted something comfortable as well as reliable to drive, I chose to lease the 2001 Buick Century Sedan.

An Excellent Value for a Used Car

bygroove1 Apr 20, 2007
9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Size, comfort, features, power, safety
Cons Dexcon coolant
Recommended it? No

IMPORTANT UPDATE:

There is a major problem with the coolant in this vehicle. I took it into the dealer for an oil change and they told me there was oil leaking into the exhaust manifold and they would need to replace the valve cover gaskets, intake manifold, flush the radiator, and... Read full review »

Pros Engine and transmission, quality, quietness, handling
Cons Feels big, bench seat with column shifter
Recommended it? Yes

My grandfather was a devout Buick man. His first car in the '40s was a Buick and he bought nothing but Buicks until 1988 when he bought a Grand Marquis. He bought that Mercury because Buick no longer sold a rear drive full frame V8 powered car. If he were around today, I would've told him to forget... Read full review »

A great highway car

6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros The car has an excellent ride and gets about 35mpg on the highway
Cons Been told that brakes need frequent changing
Recommended it? Yes

This is not a high performance drivers car, it drives you. However, for long trips, it is excellent. I travel long distances in my work, and at the end of the trip, I am not tired out. The passing power on the highway is good, it is extremely stable and handles well in snow and rain. The sound... Read full review »

I have owned this car since August 2005. I bought it used with 79000 Miles. Is very good on gas for a car that size, with around 28 mpg/highway. The speakers are great ( I like music a lot).

Pros Good acceleration and handling
Cons Limited in-cabin storage
Recommended it? Yes

This was just a rental car but I was pleasantly surprised by the responsive handling and peppy acceleration. The instrument panel is thoughtfully laid out and easy to see. Controls were easy to reach and fairly intuitive. Visibility was excellent, although the mirrors were slightly smaller than I... Read full review »

Start the new century with a Buick

bystubek Nov 1, 2000
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great size for 4 adults
Cons Suspension is slightly soft
Recommended it? Yes

The century is a beautiful design. While it has the same basics as the rest of the Buick fleet, its smaller size makes it look much more proportionally correct. This car comes with a 3.1 v6 as its only engine choice, but it is enough. This car is a pleasure to drive around town, on the highways, or... Read full review »
