Car financing: the 2002 Buick Century
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2002 Buick Century for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page helps you judge the 2002 Buick Century before you buy one anywhere.
Before you sign for the Century
Owners filed 154 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine and engine cooling, service brakes and exterior lighting; have those parts checked. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year.
What the specs mean
The engine is the 3.1L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 34 litres, from its 11.2 L/100 km rating. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $173.60. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,200 a year for 15,000 miles.
Space and size
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. Its 481 litre trunk is enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.
Who rents the Century
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.
Rent it for a week first
Rent the Century for a week and see how it fits your life. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
What it costs to run
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$3,200 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Choosing the right one
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Within the 2002 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
