2003 Buick Century
The lowest-priced Buick in the mid-size car class,
the 2003 Buick Century is a combination of comfort and
value that doesn't stint on power, a rare combination.
The base model of this North American-made four-door
sedan is a solid and valuable vehicle for all sorts
of folk who want a good car with no nonsense. The standard
front bench seat means it will seat six or even, accommodate
three in the front at the drive-in. That is- if you
can find a drive-in in your town! The Limited options
package adds to the base model with a variety of additional
features.
Under the Hood
The 2003 Buick Century has a 3.1-liter V6 with an automatic
transmission. This equates to 175 horsepower at 5200
rpm and 195 ft-lbs of torque at 4500 rpm. What it results
in is a smooth ride, little road noise and quiet gear
changes; comfort is the key here.
Safety was also a consideration in the design of the
Century. Dual front airbags and daytime running lights
and emergency inside trunk release are standard features
of the base-model.
For additional safety, through the Limited options
package, a driver's side airbag is also available along
with antilock brakes, traction control and an automatic
tire-pressure monitor.
Standard Features, Options Packages and Style
As far as internal style goes, the 2003 Buick Century
is loaded with standard comfort and convenience features:
air conditioning with dual-zone manual climate control
and interior air filter; power windows, steering, mirrors
and door-locks; tilt steering; front split bench seat;
front storage armrest; AM/FM radio and digital clock;
rear defogger and automatic headlights; remote keyless
entry and a theft deterrent system are all standard.
The Custom package offers cruise control, 6-way power
driver seat, floor mats, cargo net, illuminated mirrors
and, an AM/FM cassette with a better sound system.
Upgrade to the Limited option packages and you get
all original standard features, everything the Custom
package has to offer and, in addition, leather upholstery
on the inside and chrome wheel covers on the outside.
The exterior styling has been refined slightly from
last years model with a graphite and chrome grille and
body-colored exterior trim.
All in all, a great car for the family that won't break
the bank.
