i still have yet to find a car that can out do my dad's old buick. 89 buick century, 3.1 and teh overdrive tranny. got rid of it at 470k and the thing still started and drove ok. all original and my dad followed a very poor maintenace routine(he used the "if it breaks fix it cheap" system). car only ever wenmt through a few wearable parts like batteries, alts, tires, serp belts......etc
