the handled like a dream. maintenance was a little high. parts were hard to come by sometimes. engine was strong, braking was good when i changed the rotors and pad and drums and shoes. it needed body work and paint and the inside well needed a good cleaning and had lots of space. gas mileage was good as long as i wasn't driving like a dumbass. lots of fun to drive and it was a rare body style.

I always thought buicks were for old people. They are actually pretty quick. Maintnence is pretty easy. There are a couple of electrical difficulties, but nothing that can't be fixed. 6 cylinder getting a little less than 20 mpg highway.Sep 12, 2009

The performance is very solid, but it can't peel out due to the great weight on the drive wheels, it muds very well. It is very solidly built, and has many interesting body features that i have seen in very few cars. It is also a very good looking car and nicely proportioned. It has incredible mileage considering its weight and engine size, I have gotten more than 30 mpg regularly. It is a very fun car to drive and grips the road tenaciously, aiding already formidable acceleration and very precise handling. I would definitely recommend this car to anyone looking for an affordable car that is quite luxurious and has good enough performance for almost anyone.Feb 24, 2009

Where do I find a "Left Door Window Switch" for a 2-DOOR, 1989 Century Buick, Coupe, 3.3L, V6-3300? Or, something that is compatible??
Looking for a left door window switch for a 2-door, 1989 Century Buick, Coupe, 3.3L, V6- 3300. Passenger side switch works fine; can somewhat control passenger-side window from driver-side switch. Cannot roll driver-side window down AT ALL ! Mechanic states that I need a left door window switch", but I can't find it... everything seems to be for 4-Doors.

How do i remove a gas cap that has a key broken off in the lock?
When i got my car i was able to pump fuel in it a few times because i could easily remove the gas cap even though there was (is) a key broken off in the lock. Now i am getting close to only having an eighth of a tank of gasoline left and i tried to remove the cap the other day and it will not come off, it feels as if it were stripped or something likewise. Please help!
