That special Buick Century awaits you. And you've come to the right place to find it.
Hit the "Start Your Search Now" button below and you will enter the internet where you can begin to look for the Century of your dreams.
Twenty five years ago the internet did not exist. If you wanted a new car or truck, you searched the newspaper or you went to a used car lot and shopped. Today, the world wide web is nearly everyone's preferred shopping choice.
With the internet, the whole country can be your market place. After you key in your information (the body style you want [two-door, four-door], how many miles want your Buick Century to have on it, the price you want to pay, the payment method [cash, bank loan, dealer finance, trade in], drive train option [front wheel drive], the engine you prefer [four or six cylinder], and your zip code) you begin a nation-wide search that will probably yield a number of vehicles.
You should really ask a lot of questions when people contact you with a Buick Century that sounds like it might be your dream car. Ask the seller why he or she is selling it. Did they buy a different car? Do they have too many automobiles? Did they add to their family so they need a van or SUV?
Ask the owner about major repairs. If the car needed some, say a transmission rebuild or radiator replacement, ask to see the paperwork. This will tell you when and where the repairs were done, and will also give you an idea what kind of condition the Century is in.
Ask maintenance questions. Have the owners completed all of the filter and oil changes, tire rotations, and the other normal maintenance?
Ask about an extended warranty. Did you know that you can often have it transferred to you, the new owner, for a small charge? Let the owner know that you may be interested in doing this.
As a Century online shopper this puts you are much more in the "driver's seat." You have many more alternatives compared to if you were simply shopping in the neighborhood. As an internet shopper, you can also have potential sellers bid against one another for your business. This way, you may get a lower price and a better deal.
Used car prices are quite negotiable. Most used car dealers buy cars at huge auto auctions. Here they buy a number of cars at one time, paying "wholesale" prices. This often means that the price posted on the Century you are interested in may be many hundreds (or even thousands) of dollars more than what the used vehicle dealer paid for it. If you make a low offer on the car, don't worry -- the dealer will still make money. So bid low. You've really got nothing to lose and potentially everything to gain. And remember, you can always bid higher. But you can't bid lower after you put in a high price.
Tip: get your financing "ducks in a row" before you start to deal. If you do this, you can avoid having to get a high-priced loan from a used car dealership, which is not in your best interest.
