The 1997 Buick Century is a 5th generation mid-size sedan known for its comfort and reliability. It's powered by a 3.1-liter V6 engine that outputs 160 horsepower and is paired with a four-speed automatic transmission delivering reliable FWD. There are two trim levels available: the Custom and the Limited, both providing spacious interiors and a smooth ride. Standard features include dual front airbags, ABS brakes, power windows and door locks, and air conditioning. However, the infotainment features remain basic with an AM/FM radio and cassette player. Even with its lack of modern amenities, the Century earns high marks for its affordability and maintainability.
