Just bought a 98 Buick Century Custom. How is this ride overall?Learning_A_Lot 08-05-2009, 01:08 PM I just bought a 98 Century for $2,000. Looks in GREAT condition. Test drove it, seems perfect. 191,000k forest green. Is there anything I should know about this car. It's sure a step up from my 89 dodge spirit! stripe 08-05-2009, 11:15 PM I am on my 3rd one all died at about 500,000 k. Bearings go at about 150-200 k Signal switch at about 350 k Brakes about every 80 k. I never had an engine quit yet. If the trany oil is still clean change it every 50k if not leave it alone. Watch for loss of coolant. These cars last a long time if you do general maintanence OH YEA change the oil every 5 k or less.
