Got a new ride.

For the fiancee at least. I'm ditching the 89 Celica and taking over her 90 Buick Century (until it dies) and she gets the following:

And here's the kicker. It's got 75,000 miles on it and you could never tell. The pics don't do it justice. Best part, we paid $10,900 for the car, $13,464 out the door with a 3 year 36,000 mile warranty that's almost bumper to bumper coverage.

This thing is freaking NICE!!!! It's got the 3.9L V8, FULLY loaded (priced to about 42-43K new) and is MINT. Rides like a dream, quiet on the inside, good power, and is pimptastic. :mrgreen:

Plans??? CAI, Magnaflow or Borla Exhaust system, Angel Eyes, HID conversion, Mesh grill, and possibly a LSE Body kit. Want to do rims too, but am NOT going with the "dubs" although they do look good. Oh yeah, springs too.

Whatcha think??

very nice car!! havent heard or seen you in awhile, but i hope its all going well for you and katie.

just make sure you watch out where she parks that thing in the lot at work....its crazy around this time of year. 8) damn rich soccer moms and their giant SUV's that they dont know how to drive

yea thats nice...geez, don't go crazy on it...lol from a 90 century to that is insane tho...lol

It's a huge difference in the car, and she's happy with it. I got really lucky when I found it though. The dealer I bought it off of caught it for a dirt cheap price which translated over to his selling the car. I priced it out, and a dealership would be asking in the area of 16.5K and a private party about 13.5K. We just couldn't pass it up.

[Wasted Youth]

i would have picked it up as well...absolutely would have...some deals are too good to pass up on...

I didnt see the pic, so I assume due to the engine that its a Linc LS V8?
Killer car man. I like them. Few Ford products I do like.

Yup. It's a pretty nice motor too. 3.9L, 32V, DOHC, and a nice seamless powerband.

CAI and Cat-Back exhaust to come. They don't make headers, but the computer was just cracked so that opens the world up to blowers for them.

Very nice. 8)

Very nice, I've always liked those cars, especially the V8 models. 8)

Well, I took a microscopic look at it in the daylight yesterday, and it's got a lot of touch up paint on it at various points, looks to be mainly door dings. It was VERY well done though, which is why I never noticed it before. Still looks damn good though, and just drives like a dream.

D@m, all you guys getting these fancy modern cars! And I'm stuck driving something from the 80's. I guess we all make sacrifices. That car looks pretty sweet. :cool:
