Review

Best Automobile I have ever owned! And I have newer ones. 12 years and 51,000 miles later, it looks like new inside and out. Only had to replace an alternator, A/C and brakes. Everything else is original condition (tires excepted).

Favorite Features

Radio controls on steering wheel should be standard on all cars. Upholstery hardly shows any sign of wear.

Suggested Improvements

none

I like this vehicle, and it's very comfortable. The problem is that I keep closing the door on the seatbelt which is attached to the doors. There is also no cupholders. Overall, it's a great car. It drives smoothly, there's powerseat, and everything else is just fine. The car is roomy, and the trunk is very big.

Favorite Features

Comfortable interior, power seats, automatic sideview mirror adjustment.

Suggested Improvements

seatbelts shouldn't be on the door, and get some cupholders.

Overdrive and Cup Holders

Review

I really like the car in general. Most everything works and feels right. My only knock against them(or at least the one I have) is the fact that there is absolutely no engine braking whatesoever, and if I drive it on Drive instead of Overdrive, it give a jerking motion everytime I give it gas or release the gas pedal. Overdrive really bad on winter roads And the fact that it does not come with cup holders or any options as to where one could be installed. May sound petty but is very much a nescessity Gas mileage is great, comfort is great, controls are great, mechanicly great.

Should have engine braking. - No overdrive. Should definetly have cup holders. or at least the option to put one in somewhere-anywhere.

This has been a great car. Consumer reports would have had me buy a Ford Taurus. I recently rented a 2002 Taurus that I would not trade for my Buick with 105000 mile on it. After upgrading the tires to 75X195, the car handles very well. The transmission is smooth, comfortable ride,Much better than my a 95 Caprice Classic. I bought with 7000 miles on it in 95. It has seen over 25 trips from upstate ny to Cape Cod, and 7 years of small children in the back seat. The interior looks new, and its still a very comforable car. If you are looking at a ford taurus, check out the buick century, unless you enjoy jerking transmissions and trips to the dealer.

Favorite Features

Power Seat, gas mileage, comfort, reliability, large trunk

Suggested Improvements

Seat belts should not be attached to the doors
