1989 Buick Century Custom 2.5 4 tech from North America
Summary:
Very reliable and comfortable, "Old Blue" is a great car
Faults:
Nothing major went wrong with the car. With as many miles as it has on it I'm surprised. I find it that the motor mounts have gone bad and I can feel the engine shake a lot. I have replaced on under 20 dollars, but know another one has gone bad I don't know where the others ones are?
General Comments:
This car is very reliable.
Inside is very comfortable.
Good gas mileage.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Old blue is my name as well!
I'm trying to get it faster, but I'm not too sure what else I could do!

Yep,
Front mount rubber was shot to heck on mine when I bought it also. Seems to be the only bad thing with this car on most reviews I've seen on other sites also.

These cars offer great value. Sure, they are not fashionable and they look old, but they are reliable as heck, and more comfortable than modern cars. GM did a good job with these. My family has had a few over the years, all were good buys, cheap to maintain and running over 250k.
Why pay more for an import? These offer real reliability.

I have a 1989 century and I find my motor mounts to be bad also.
