    I'm feeling dizzy. Video motion-sickness, but I'd want that car. These newer Buicks are all about downsizing, and saving budget. Bring back these full-sized Centurions.

    Wow. Thanks for posting. Beautiful car, and it brings back memories.
    I had a '72 Centurion 455 identical to that one from 1992 to 1998. It had only 70K miles on it when I bought it and it ran like a dream. Unfortunately, it was a Michigan car and was getting pretty crispy around the edges. Wish I would have had the money to have it restored. I still have the centurion hood ornament.

    sounds angry when you floored it, that's what I like

    We had a 1973 Buick Centurion 455; Great car. I think this one is a 1972, however. The horsepower dropped significantly from 1970 - 1973 because of the emissions control system.

    The vid was recordes in October or November.

    My uncle had one new; Tan with White vinyl top/interior. I found it many years after he sold it, what a coincidence.

    I still need to shorten the tail pipes. That´s ow they came out of the box.
    Sorry, vid. is getting a little bit boring to the end.
    But I didn´t know the road and how much turns there are. Wasn´t able to hit the pedal more.

    Da sind wir schon 2. Ich hab den Buick gesehen und es war Liebe auf den ersten Blick. Wenn du auf den diversen US-Treffen bist kannst du ja die Augen offen halten ;) Traun500, Hot Summer Nites, Crocodile Meeting...

    @Minutourus Ja, momentan hab ich ihn zum verkaufen bei einem Händler stehen.
    Allerdings nicht mehr lang. Hab ihn aus Platzmangel angeboten. Platzmangel ist aber so gut wie behoben. Also werd ich mein Schätzchen wieder nach hause holen.

    No wonder some Europeans don't get American style cars....they have no straight roads. A car like that is like a whale on a beach.
