1998 Buick Century Custom Sedan 4-door 3.1l on 2040-cars
Cleveland, Ohio, United States
|
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 Wildcat EV concept previews the future of the brand
Wed, Jun 1 2022Once again, Buick has revealed a drop-dead stunner of a coupe concept, the Wildcat EV. And just like the Avista that came before it, don't get your hopes up too high for a production model. Buick hasn't said "no," but they haven't said "yes," either. But unlike the Avista, the Wildcat does give us a look at where Buick is going as far as styling, branding and technology. Also, did we mention it's freaking gorgeous? The Wildcat EV started out as a sketch by a Buick designer that caught the eye of the department, simply because it was really cool. The team started developing it further, and eventually the brand gave the go-ahead to bring it to the full-size concept you see here. It is purely a design concept, so although it's an EV by name, it doesn't have any kind of production powertrain or real specs. But it is designed with electric power in mind, as evidenced by the extremely long wheelbase and short overhangs. And this translates into Buick's electric future. The brand plans to be fully electric by 2030, and its first EV will launch in 2024 as a 2025 model. The shape of the coupe is very clean, simple and organic, but with interesting creases and intersections scattered throughout. It has wide haunches and a low, pointy nose. The grille is pushed down and made wide, which accentuates the shape of the car. The badge now sits atop the bumper, too. The greenhouse has blacked-out front pillars to create a wraparound look, and the roof has a gentle slope toward the rear. It incorporates a glass hatch, and the taillights blend into the glass and extend all the way up the rear pillars. While Buick isn't making a commitment either way for the Wildcat EV, these styling cues will appear on future Buick models. So imagine the front and rear fascias, the window treatment and sheetmetal detailing, but on other bodystyles, likely crossovers and SUVs. In fact, Buick said it has two models it will reveal later this year with some styling based on the Wildcat. Before we get too far from design, we should also highlight other cool aspects of the Wildcat EV concept. The wheels are turbine shaped as a throwback to Jet Age design and optimism. Each wheel took two months to produce and finish. The doors on the Wildcat are conventional, except for the gull-wing upper panels. They open up to make ingress and egress easier. And the interior is a gorgeous, mid-century-modern design.

Best car infotainment systems: From UConnect to MBUX, these are our favorites
Sun, Jan 7 2024Declaring one infotainment system the best over any other is an inherently subjective matter. You can look at quantitative testing for things like input response time and various screen load times, but ask a room full of people that have tried all car infotainment systems what their favorite is, and you’re likely to get a lot of different responses. For the most part, the various infotainment systems available all share a similar purpose. They aim to help the driver get where they're going with navigation, play their favorite tunes via all sorts of media playback options and allow folks to stay connected with others via phone connectivity. Of course, most go way beyond the basics these days and offer features like streaming services, in-car performance data and much more. Unique features are aplenty when you start diving through menus, but how they go about their most important tasks vary widely. Some of our editors prefer systems that are exclusively touch-based and chock full of boundary-pushing features. Others may prefer a back-to-basics non-touch system that is navigable via a scroll wheel. You can compare it to the phone operating system wars. Just like some prefer Android phones over iPhones, we all have our own opinions for what makes up the best infotainment interface. All that said, our combined experience tells us that a number of infotainment systems are at least better than the rest. WeÂ’ve narrowed it down to five total systems in their own subcategories that stand out to us. Read on below to see our picks, and feel free to make your own arguments in the comments. Best infotainment overall: UConnect 5, various Stellantis products Ram 1500 Uconnect Infotainment System Review If thereÂ’s one infotainment system that all of us agree is excellent, itÂ’s UConnect. It has numerous qualities that make it great, but above all else, UConnect is simple and straightforward to use. Ease of operation is one of the most (if not the single most) vital parts of any infotainment system interface. If youÂ’re expected to be able to tap away on a touchscreen while driving and still pay attention to the road, a complex infotainment system is going to remove your attention from the number one task at hand: driving. UConnect uses a simple interface that puts all of your key functions in a clearly-represented row on the bottom of the screen. Tap any of them, and it instantly pulls up that menu.
