The Buick Skyhawk for buyers
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the Buick Skyhawk; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars is not a leasing company. You can rent month to month and stop at the end of any booking. Before you buy the Buick Skyhawk, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
Before you sign for the Skyhawk
Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
What the figures tell you
No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.
Room inside
As a compact car, it is easy to drive and park in the city.
When the Skyhawk makes sense
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent first, buy later: a week with the Skyhawk answers the big questions. Rent the Skyhawk first, and buy only if it fits your life. A test week in the Skyhawk tells you more than any review.
Running costs
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.
Which one to look for
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

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 Skyhawk from us first.
Ask us about the Buick Skyhawk
Tell us your budget and when you want to buy; we look for a Buick Skyhawk for you and reply within one business day.
Buying the Buick Skyhawk
Does CarmaCars sell the Buick Skyhawk?
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 Skyhawk 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.
