The Buick Century for buyers
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no Buick Century for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. The Buick Century for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
Recalls and complaints
Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
The numbers in plain words
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
What the Century is like
As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight.
Who it is for
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
Rent it for a week first
Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. A test week in the Century tells you more than any review.
The cost of driving it
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Picking a year and a trim
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Compare the years of the Century: fuel use and trims change from one to the next.
Make a request
Tell us the model and the dates, and we reply with an offer.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a Buick Century from us first.
Ask us about the Buick Century
Tell us your budget and when you want to buy; we look for a Buick Century for you and reply within one business day.
Buying the Buick Century
Does CarmaCars sell the Buick Century?
Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.
Can I rent a Buick Century before I buy one?
Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.
Where do the figures come from?
Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
