All Centurys have the same engine. The Century accelerates fine from a stop, but seems to lack power when entering a freeway. However, the engine appears to be quieter than before. The transmission upshifts quickly. Mostly highway driving yielded 28.5 mpg on regular unleaded.
Rough roads turn the ride turbulent, but that's typical of the breed.
That's no worse than many domestic and imported competitors. Braking performance was perfectly adequate, with some nose dive in hard stops. The cabin is quiet. Features like triple door seals help keep it so. The front split bench seat was as comfortable as your living room sofa, but without the bad upholstery.
