You are bidding on a 1998 Buick Century Custom (loaded), 4 door sedan. The car has 50,350 original miles, . It has a 3.1 Liter Engine with Automatic Transmission, 28-30+ MPG highway, ALL Accessories work like new. Car is all Power – Windows/Seats/ Door Locks. SUNROOF, AC (perfect), Premium Radio System, Cruise Control, Tilt Wheel, 2 working Remotes I will describe the car as accurately as possible, both for the average buyer and also the best I can for any special enthusiast/collector. Someone looking for a creampuff. My goal is to represent the car accurately. Take time to read this whole description and as questions are asked I no doubt will make added comments in the last paragraph of the description as the auction week proceeds. Nothing is better than you actually seeing the car for yourself or to see it via a representative. I am open to that option but will not be driving the car to any location or facility. The car has been garaged its entire life. The mock convertible type top is in excellent plus condition. There are no dents or what can be considered scratches on the car. I have had the car for the last 6 months, putting no miles on the car. The car was my elderly father-in-law’s car, he has passed and gave me the car. I simply am not driving the car and am in the process of downsizing the number of vehicles I own. The car has been garaged its entire life, never driven in snow, I don’t think it hardly has ever been rained on over the years. There is not one issue with the running or performance of this car. Mechanical I can provide you with the Ohio Emissions Certificate- Passed ( State of Ohio). The tires are close to new, the brakes also have very little wear. The car is very smooth and comfortable to drive. Accessories/Interior Electrically, the car has Power door locks, windows, seats, side- view mirrors. The headlights have a sharp clear glass which is result of it being garaged. All Accessories work perfectly, as all other lights: tail, brake, turn-signal, hazard, dash, console, inside courtesy, underhood, side marker, outside courtesy etc. The seats are a slate blue with a fleck in it with a soft but sturdy material (original). The seats are supportive but at the same time comfortable, virtually new and the back seat has probably not been used more than a few dozen times. There are no rips or tears or any signs of popped threads on the seats. What is important to note is that the car has a bench seat with column shift. This may seem dated a bit, but if you have a family or occasion to drive 6 people, it’s seat belted for Six ! Only 5 passengers ?, flip the Console down for the armrest and space. Body/Paint/Wheels The body has no dents, holes or damage to it. Nothing has been drilled or attached to the body. No accidents to my knowledge, again it is original. The paint condition overall is excellent. The car is very appealing in its appearance, good gloss and for the general eye the usual comment is that it looks sharp. Here is the most accurate description for blemishes, any discolorations etc. that I can note. Driver’s side very bottom edge of front fender just in front of door/ driver side bottom edge, just in front of rear wheel had been touched up. Standing back 3 or 4 feet and it is not seen, you have to look for it. where you like (garage etc.) I didn’t post pictures with the top off, since I had no one available to help lift off the top. It is advisable you always have someone to help , it is no problem at all (3-4 minutes) with a helper so you avoid scratching something. The wheels are the factory original(steel) with the center Buick Emblem ( see pics). They are clean and look good. There are no secrets with the car and the absolute best is to see it for yourself or have a neutral representative evaluate the condition of the car for you. Some people would say you got to be kidding that you would even bother with these comments, the car’s just about 15 years old !, but I in the past have looked at cars for how perfect they could be and then deciding my level of acceptance. To the best of my ability I will describe the car for what it is or what it is not. The buyer is the final judge on whether it meets their expectations. Nice part about the car is that is spacious, great to travel, lots of Interior Room, big Trunk but is a notch down in size from the Buick LeSabre. I would call it a larger Intermediate Size Car. There’s the $2000 down for a lease and $200 a month for 2 years minimum – all Totals $6800 and you have nothing left after 2 years. You could drive this for 2 years, 3 , 4, 5 and re-coup a fair market value back with normal care on the car all with reasonable expectation that it should remain trouble free for many, many miles.
SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY - PAYMENT includes the standard $300 (non-refundable) to Paypal within 48 hours of auction close. Remaining balance due in Cash or a completed/verifiable transaction with Certified check before Car &Title exchange to buyer.
After payment conditions have been met, I would discuss ( no commitment/obligation) the idea of splitting the distance of car pick-up with buyer to a maximum of 300 miles ( 150 miles each person). I am reserving the right to make final decision on any possibility at my convenience and discretion, so assume in your bidding, all the arrangements/payments are your full responsibility.

Buick Velite 6 to come in PHEV, electric versions for China
Wed, Apr 18 2018In addition to the all-electric Enspire crossover concept revealed this week ahead of the Beijing Auto Show, Buick is adding a new production variant to its Velite series of electrified vehicles for China. It's called the Velite 6, a plug-in hybrid that will launch this year in Buick's largest market. A full-electric version, shown in the lead photo above at right, is coming later. Buick already sells a vehicle called a Velite 5 in China, which is essentially a rebadged Chevrolet Volt, only with a higher electric-only driving range. This one is based on the Velite concept PHEV introduced in late 2016 at Auto Guangzhou. The PHEV and battery-electric versions look nearly identical, with a wide stance, plenty of creases and a hatchback design that bears some similarities to the longer 2018 Regal TourX wagon. The Velite 6 uses two AC permanent-magnet synchronous motors, a lithium-ion battery and a 1.5-liter four-cylinder combustion engine. Buick says combined gas-electric driving range is 435 miles, which is 15 miles greater than the Volt. Buick will assemble what it calls the "new-generation" ternary battery pack at its new SAIC-GM Power Battery Development Center in Shanghai. The company says the Velite 6 electric vehicle "will adopt a new-generation pure electric drive system to offer customers a smooth, quiet and natural driving experience." Both models get the cloud-based Buick eConnect technology, which allows over-the-air software updates, real-time integration with China's WeChat social media network, and other digital perks. Owners will also be able to use their smartphone as the vehicle's key, and they can also authorize others to use the car through their phones. China has long been Buick's largest market, with more than 1.18 million vehicles sold in 2017 compared to just 219,231 in the U.S., and the country has established aggressive mandates for production of electric vehicles. GM has plans to add 20 new electric and fuel-cell vehicles globally by 2023. Related Video:
Buick Velite Plug-In Hybrid Concept debuts to little fanfare
Sat, Nov 19 2016Buick pulled the covers off its latest Velite Concept at the Auto Guangzhou 2016 show in China. We say latest because this is actually the second time Buick has used the Velite name for a concept, the previous having been shown at the 2004 New York Auto Show. The first Velite concept was a two-door convertible; the second Velite is a four-door crossover. Enough about the name, what about the concept? Well, it's very highly stylized, and we don't really mean that in a good way. There's nothing about the Velite that screams Buick, except for its badges, of course. At the front is a compressed version of Buick's traditional waterfall-like fascia. It's flanked by slit-like LED lighting elements. The rest of the face looks to our eyes like it draws inspiration from the latest Toyota Prius. There isn't a single flat element to the Velite Concept's bodysides, in a way that resembles recent concepts from Infiniti. The last bit of styling flourish are deep recesses just ahead of the rear wheels, a look that is reminiscent of BMW's i-series of vehicles. There aren't any images showing the Velite's hind quarters, but from what we can see, that also has a QX-ish look about it. There are no shots yet of the Velite's interior, but Buick says it's "elegant" and "includes recycled materials." We wish we could see what it looks like, because the automaker says it "[points] to design trends for upcoming new energy vehicles." So, the Buick Velite Concept is a nondescript mashup of design elements that we've already seen. Under the skin, however, things are more interesting. It's a plug-in hybrid with a modular lithium ion battery. That doesn't tell us much – it could be a variant of the Chevy Volt, or it could be a different system altogether. We look forward to finding out. In the meantime, have a look at the high-res image gallery up above. Oh, and if you're wondering, the word velite traces its roots back to a lightly armored military division in ancient Rome. Related Video:
Buick to add more GS models?
Fri, 29 Nov 2013Buick may not be the first name that comes to mind when you think of performance automobiles, but fans of the brand know what letters to look for. If you believe the reports, there's a new GNX and Grand National on the way, but in the meantime, Buick may offer more GS models to fill the void.
Currently, the Regal is the only model available as a GS (pictured above), packing the same 259-horsepower turbo four as the Regal Turbo but enhanced with key suspension, brakes and rolling-stock upgrades. As Car and Driver notes, similar upgrades could easily be applied to the Verano and LaCrosse, although maybe not the Encore or Enclave crossovers. Of course, Buick would still have to steer clear of Cadillac's Vsport line, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have a little room to play.
