    Buyer's guide to a 07 GXP?

    So I totalled my 07 gt and now i'm looking at buying an 07 gxp. I'm pretty familiar with the l32 and l67 engines but don't know my way around the 5.3L v8 in the gxp. I've been googling on things to look for but since I'm under a time constraint since I need to buy a car fast before my rental...

    Oild dipstick handle broke.

    So I noticed a leak in my front valve cover, so went to check my oil. Part of the handle broke off in the tube, not the entire dipstick. But it's a yellow piece of I think cork that is lodged in there. Any idea how to get this out? And if I can't how easy is it to replace the entire tube myself?

    Price to sell Buick Century at?

    Hey I just bought a Buick Century from my friend for cheap and I'm looking to sell it. How much should I ask for? It's a 1997 with 128k. It has a new inspection, good tires, and the body is in good condition. Only thing I found wrong with the car is the turn signals burn out over time.
