1995 Buick Century Custom review from North America
"I really loved this car - and I miss it!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had to replace the lights in the back light bar about 10 times.
At around 130K Miles, the car would shut off at hwy speeds for a second or so and then start right back up again.
The drivers seat back started to lean towards the passenger seat at around 110k miles.
General comments?
My parents bought me this car when I was a senior in HS. I loved this car for its acceleration and looks. Some of my friends would make fun of me for driving a "grandma" car, but their smiles quickly faded when I kicked their butts off the line!
One thing on the interior that I just DID NOT like was the way the dashboard slanted toward the seat on the passenger side. I was glad I rarely rode over there, but when I did, I put the seat WAY back!
I sold this car to my older sister when I got out of college who needed a reliable work car to and from the farm. The car is still going strong with 159k miles on it!
