Pros: list is endless! Cons: so comfortable I find myself not wanting to get out
Alright, this isn't actually my vehicle - it's actually my mom's. I don't have my own car, so I basically borrow my other family member's vehicles, and most of the time I end up with my mom's car.
What can I say? I love it! I'll go over...

Pros: Big enough for 4 big guys and their stuff. Cons: Drives like Grandma's Buick
I was helping my mother buy a car. We looked at several that I thought were perfect for her. The Mitsubishi Galant is very nice, as well the new Nissan Maxima. I spent 2 weeks doing tons of research so I could help her make an intelligent purchase....

Pros: Good gas mileage, dependable, good performance, it's a Buick Cons: Not the 3.8 V6 I'm used to on other Buicks... some minor problems
So you want to know how the Century stacks up against other Buicks? Well, let me begin by saying that GM is the best domestic car company (in my epinion), and that Buick has the best dollar:features ratio of any GM car company.
Now that that is out...

Pros: fully loaded Cons: dinging and boat-like
My mom has a 1999 Buick Century. The car drives like a boat. What I mean is that when you turn the car, it just makes a really wide turn. It feels like you're in a boat also. After you hit a bump, the car rocks back and forth for awhile. I like the car...

Pros: Good value, safe, roomy, standard features, appealing style Cons: Soft suspension
I bought a new Buick Century Limited last summer and absolutely love this car. It is perfectly quiet and has acceptable power. I decided to order the leather seats which moved me into the Limited instead of the Custom which I originally planned to...

Pros: Comfortable; great value for the dollar Cons: Boring styling
If you're in the market for a safe, comfortable family sedan, and don't mind giving up some style to keep the lease payments at around $200/month, go test drive the Century. You'll get more features for your dollar than with an Accord or Camry.

Pros: roomy, auto lights, & other standard equipment for the price. Cons: I really have not found any cons with it yet, and i have had it for almost a year!
While test driving several makes and models of cars this past year, I thought I would go crazy! But, I found the Buick Century...what a car! I knew I wanted a mid-sized car because i was tired of trying to remove my 18 month old son from the back of...

Pros: very comfortable; nice leather seats Cons: bad acceleration
I must say this: I'm a bit partial to luxury cars. I'm telling you this because I'm not the type to like luxury cars, being that I'm almost a twenty year old. And in the past as I've been told, a luxury car has to be two things:1. cost over $40000; and...

Pros: dependable, affordable Cons: locking doors
After many years in a compact car it was time to move up. Our biggest problem was finding a car that would accommodate both my 4ft 11inch frame as well as my 6ft hubby. Car after car either had him hitting his head or me not being able to see over the...

Pros: Smooth and powerful Cons: had things to deal with as a used car
25 year old single males arent supposed to want to own Buicks. Definitely, I am not in their general category of demographics. And, honestly, I didnt think I wanted a buick either. Until I sat in the Buick Century 99 I didnt know what I was missing....

Pros: Good handling Cons: Hard Seats
In August of 1999 my 1989 Olds Ciera decided to encourage me into buying a new vehicle. I would have bought a new Ciera, but since Oldsmobile discontinued this model, I was forced to search for a different car. My first priority in a new car was having...

Pros: Great ride,gas mileage,comfort,easy to drive Cons: Car doesn't get 1000miles per gallon!!!! That would be cool!!!!
I recently rented a 1999 Buick Century. I drove approx. 800 miles. The gas mileage was great, even at high speeds. The tank holds 17.5 gallons which gets about 500 miles. The interior is spacious for 4 people and the ride is very smooth. Outside noise is...

Pros: Good on a good road Cons: Many
I bought my '99 Century last summer because I needed a practical auto for a change. It's turned out to be the worst new car I've ever bought. Although it's reliable and had adequate interior room (I'm 6'4"), the "ABS" brakes don't act...

Pros: Everything Cons: none
When it came time to replace my 1988 Cougar, I did my research on the internet. I was looking for a 4 door passenger car with good pickup, comfortable ride, large truck. A nice, clean look was also important, as we keep our vehicles for a long time and I...

Pros: everything Cons: I'll let you know when if I find them
The Buick Century is a great driving and peppy car. It is roomy and well designed inside and great looking outside. The car has several nice features and stands up to freeway driving with no problems.
In the inside, everything is placed in...

Pros: See review. Cons: See review.
I'm only 18 (17 when my mom purchased this car), so keep that in mind when reading this review. She (my mom) looked at a lot of cars and trucks on the Buick/GMC lot, but since she knew I was going to get the car eventually, it was mainly my decision...

Pros: reasonably priced Cons: automatic headlights don't always come on in rainy weather
I bought a 1999 Buick Century in May of 1999. My past experience with a 1992 Buick Century was the reason I chose to buy another Century. This car is still on the road being driven by my college age son. It has over 150,000 miles on it and is still...

Pros: Has been dependable until now. Comfortable car. Hope to keep for a long time. Cons: Worried about future repairs. Driver seat will have to be repaired or replaced.
We bought this car new in October 1999, and based our purchase on the high ratings it received for dependability, comfort and craftsmanship. Mechanically, it has been very dependable with no major repairs until this week, when I spent $600 to have ...

My First Car
by pistons313291 ,May 04 '08
Pros: Solid car, Interior is comfy, Dependable Cons: Sort of a gas guzzler, Some interior deficits
This was my first car handed down from my mom and i was thrilled to have it. The car had about 90k when i got and it ran perfect. Alot of people complain that they dont like this car because its a "grandma's" car or whatever but its a good car. The only things i could complain about is the gas consumption and interior functions that broke. Most people say that the gas mileage is good but i disagree, on the govt. website it say that the car gets about 17-18 city and about 22 highway but it sure doesnt seem like that. The other thing is little minor interior defects like one of the window wont go down, the A/C stoped working, and the coolant censor went out, none of those things affect the performance of the car but they are annoying. Other than that theres really nothing else bad about the car, its large, solid, American car that runs like a charm. It also looks like the Regals though the Regal has more kick to it but none the less the Century is a great car that i would recomend to anyone.
