Southwest has flights ~$115 each way LGA-BUF with a change in MDW or BWI. It is about a 15-20 minute drive to the center from the BUF airport.
I know it's an older thread, but just in case someone finds it whilst searching...
The above is not realistic advice. The drive from NYC to BUF is 7 hours if there is zero traffic, and can easily be 8-9 hours. New York is a deceptively large state, and this is driving from almost one end to the other.
